Elopement and Wedding Photography in Victoria BC | Small Celebrations, Big Feelings

Photographer for Elopements and Small Weddings in Victoria British Columbia

Elopement In Victoria, BC And Beyond

Intimate. Joyful. Completely your own.

You don’t have to follow traditions or plan a day that Aunt Karen would approve of. Whether it’s a quiet elopement on the coast, a city hall ceremony, or a backyard party with your favorite people, your day should feel like you — loving, intentional, a little bit magic.

I document the real stuff: the gentle hand squeezes, the burst out laughing moments, the stillness before it all begins. I’ll guide you when needed, and blend in when you need space to just be.

Big feelings, small guest lists. Always intentional.

“Shana was incredible to work with and captured the energy of our wedding perfectly.

For a small elopement, Shana was a perfect addition to the all the people we decided to celebrate with.

She has a comforting and friendly presence making the experience of photos so much fun!”
— Brooke

What to Expect:

No image limits: you’ll receive a full gallery of edited images that tell your story beautifully.

I’ll be there for the moments that matter (even the ones you don’t realize mattered until later).

You can say your vows on a boat, in a backyard, at city hall, or somewhere meaningful ( whatever feels right for you).

This isn’t about a “production.” It’s a celebration of your love, your way. I’ll be there to documented with care, humor, and heart.

 
 
 

Every elopement collection includes:

  • Coverage by me, Shana: equal parts calm, direction, and bad jokes when you need them. I’ll guide when it helps, and disappear into the background when you just need to be.

  • Sneak peeks within 48 hours, full gallery within 2 months.

  • Printing rights + access to an online print shop

  • Starting at $800 for up to 20 guests.

 

Whether it’s two hours or more, I’ll help you slow down and actually feel the day.

Let’s Document the Way You Chose Each Other

You bring the love, I’ll bring the support, tissues, and laughter.
