Wedding | Jade & David

Two people from two different worlds collided in a place where they never expected they would find their one true love. Their story is incredibly touching, and I was really excited and overjoyed to help document their intimate wedding day. It was amazing to hear both their parents, neither of whom speak English fluently, talk to both Jade and David about how they are glad to have gained a new addition to their family, and are so accepting and loving of them both regardless of their different upbringings and background. Jade is originally from China, whereas David is from Peru. Despite English also being neither of their mother tongues, their love transcends all barriers as they love each other for who they are.

I photographed the wedding for Jun Ying under Kunioo as I am now their second shooter and videographer. The wedding was held in early December, and as ammé photographie, we are very lucky to have been able to capture a wedding before the New Year. We feel this year will be full of updates and amazing photographs to be shared with everyone. :)

Very sweet. They skyped David's mother in from Peru to be a part of the wedding. :)






Lots of smiles and laughter throughout the wedding. :)

2012 Recap & Updates

As the year 2012 comes to a close, we have a few exciting updates to share with everyone. Firstly, we would like to thank those who have continually supported us, shared our photographs with others, and left kind comments along the way. Thank you! It really means a lot to us as we continue to do what we love -- and that is to help capture special moments and tell your personal stories through photographs and film! It has been a busy year for all of us with many accounts of personal growth, newly gained experiences, and exciting opportunities.

Let's begin with some important updates!

Theresa is now in Singapore for a 4-month internship, and she will be blogging her adventures there, and photograph new friendly faces she will meet there. Crazy to think that early this year Marie was in Europe, and now we've swapped places since Theresa is now in Asia! Have you heard of Kunioo, a wedding photography and videography company? Marie is now a photographer (second shooter) and videographer for Kunioo. Don't worry! Business will run as usual with ammé photographie. We have just expanded our networks and will feature more engagements, weddings, and video on our website! If you're interested in having us capture a special moment for you, whether it be a graduation, friendship photoshoot, professional portraiture, or even an engagement session, feel free to contact us! We even do videos! :)

Here's a recap of some of our favourite moments in 2012:

We started the year with a bang as we were hired to document a bridal shower.








Marie went on an international exchange to Malmö, Sweden for half a year, where she met some amazing people including these wonderful girls from different countries who became the best of friends. Additionally, she took way too many photos (over 10,000...) during her time in Europe, but will definitely share them eventually!





When Marie returned to Vancouver, we were contacted to do a personal portraiture for a sweet girl whose name happens to be Candy! We had a great time during this photoshoot and learned how small this world as Marie and Candy had met during high school very briefly before!





We also decided to do a little impromptu photoshoot for fun! :)






Of course, can't forget the beautiful hazy glow photographs of Vuitton. :)






Our dear friend Amanda graduated from Simon Fraser University in early October! It was a heartfelt moment to see her walk across the stage in her brilliant blue gown.








Friendship photoshoots always make us smile. This one was photographed by Theresa and features her closest friends from high school. Best friends aren't afraid to be silly! :)






Marie's first project with Kunioo was a short film for their a story session featuring Susie & Alex. Check it out and let us know what you think. :)



It's amazing to note that we started off the year by capturing sweet and funny moments at a bridal shower, and ended with... a wedding! Another blog post is on its way that will go into more depth about the wedding, but here is one image that documented the couple's special day. :)
