Paraphrase Productions

Paraphrase Productions Laura Froese is a family and wedding photographer, based on the West Coast of Canada, who has been capturing authentic moments and emotion for over 13 years.

She is also an international photography instructor and mama of three young boys. This page is a way for us to showcase some of our projects. Nicholas heads up the video side of our company as well as offering his services externally for production management and post-production work. Laura heads up the photography side of Paraphrase Productions offering photo shoots to individuals and fa

milies. To "paraphrase" is to express the meaning of something using different words. In our work, we seek to convey something that is intangible, like emotion, into something that people can see. We desire to seek out clarity and purpose in what we communicate by taking something that is stale and lifeless, and giving it emotion and story. In essence, paraphrasing it.

Another day, another gallery! This week I edited 3 weddings, 2 families, and 1 event, in addition to shooting the weddings and one of the family sessions. Next week will be a little more chill as I'm only shooting one wedding, one family, and one engagement. With all the smoke coming in, I'm actually totally okay to be out there a little bit less. I don't mind it too much for photos, but my asthma has opinions on it.

Here are a few faves from Wednesday night's insanely hot and humid session - the girls were troopers! https://paraphrasephoto.com/c-family-burnaby-family-photographer-3/

Another wedding done and up on the blog today! Had a triple header on Friday, Saturday, Sunday and managed to deliver the galleries on Monday, Tuesday, and Wednesday - phew! Just in time to offload the family shoot from tonight and see what gems we have. More favourites from Sunday's wedding here: https://paraphrasephoto.com/m-s-wedding-langley-wedding-photographer/

I overestimated how many phone calls, zooms and emails I would have the Monday after I spent a week telling people I was on the island and then shooting a triple header. So far it's been 15 with at least 2-4 more to go, and it's only 1pm. However, I am actually getting things exported and delivered in between all the connecting! Friday's wedding is up on the blog today! https://paraphrasephoto.com/k-k-wedding-langley-wedding-photographer/

Yesterday's wedding blogged, uploaded, and delivered by 10am. Let's not talk about how late I stayed up til.... (though, in my defence, I was home just after 9pm and the night was young. I also culled throughout the day in camera because I knew I was aiming for a fast turnaround). I'm almost ready for tomorrow's wedding now! https://paraphrasephoto.com/r-j-wedding-langley-wedding-photographer/

A gorgeous sunset is a rarity, but it does happen on weddings. This wedding had that for sure. However, I have shot HUNDREDS of weddings in my 12 years of doing them, but never have I ever had a random CAT join in the photoshoot and REFUSE to be left out. I couldn't even have them walk down the path because he would attack her dress. I said I could pull him out, but they fully embraced him as their 7th wedding party member! https://paraphrasephoto.com/f-d-wedding-newlands-langley-photographer/

Even if I'm doing 25 family minis in under 3 hours, with just a few precious moments per family, while I'm absolutely shooting for that Christmas card photo, you can bet I'm looking for those "in-between" moments and interactions as well

This is your friendly reminder to schedule that super inconvenient photo session that requires coordinating your adult children's schedules. This family choose to make time where there was none. They chose each other
