October at Swaneset Bay is something special — golden light, wide-open skies, and a golf course that turns every portrait into a postcard. Christine & Bobby's wedding had all of that, plus one detail I don't see every day: a live wedding painter capturing the day on canvas as it happened.

The Day: October 3, 2026

They married at Swaneset Bay Resort & Country Club in Pitt Meadows, surrounded by their favourite people, with the fall colours doing their very best work in the background. Early-October light in the Fraser Valley is a photographer's dream — soft, warm, and generous — and this day delivered it in full.

Wedding guests seated in white chairs on a sunny green lawn watch a bride in a white gown and groom exchange vows at an outdoor ceremony.

Wedding flat lay with save the date card, Kayali perfume, jeweled bridal heels, ring box, dog cocktail napkin and bone cookie on pink.

Portraits on the Course

A golf course in October gives you everything: long grass, golden trees, open sky, and space to breathe. Christine & Bobby were relaxed and joyful in front of the camera, and it shows — the kind of portraits that look effortless because the couple actually was.

The Celebration

After the ceremony came dinner, speeches, dancing, and a room full of people who clearly love these two — plus that live painting taking shape through the evening, a keepsake unlike any other.

Christine & Bobby — thank you for trusting me with your day, from the first look to the last dance. 🤍
