My passion for photography began as a way to express emotion and artful creativity at a time in my life when everything was changing. Having two beautiful children who were irresistibly adorable only amplified that passion into what it is today. I had a great need to learn to photograph them in beautiful ways. I craved the knowledge of everything about photography, including editing styles, lenses, lighting, design, composition, etc. I spent large parts of the day learning about my camera and taking way too many shots of my kids, and my friends kids, and their pets, and...

Having been born on Vancouver Island to a pair of hippie parents that eventually settled in a small logging and fishing community, I have a great love of all things West coast, except rain, because I might melt. Something I recently learned about Vancouver Island is it's abundance of wonderful food, wine, beer, etc. For a large part of my adult life, I had been expressing myself through baking, sautéing and roasting any and every type of food. When that marriage of passions (food + photography) consummated, Guilty Kitchen (my food blog) was born. After learning even more about myself through the aperture of each successive lens, my true passion for creating art shone through.Currently located in the Cowichan Valley, I cover all of southern Vancouver Island for any of your photographic needs. Weddings, engagements, maternity, newborn, family and pets.

Garnett Wren Photography is the actualization of a dream, a dream to capture all of life's beauty as art and share it with others. My passion for capturing emotions in photographs has brought me to this place in my life and now I want to share that with you. My style can be described as modern, romantic and emotional. I try to keep things as photojournalistic as possible, but sometimes a little posing is necessary. What I strive for most is to capture your unique story in every photo.

I believe every subject is different and therefore every shoot will be special.

{Janet + Peter} Baby Bump – Victoria, BC Photographer

Another week and another fabulous photo shoot to rave about. This time the weather gods were smiling down upon us as this shoot had been cancelled twice due to inclement weather and also an unavoidable illness. But come Saturday afternoon, the clouds parted and the sun was shining! It was gorgeous and the location couldn’t have reflected it any better.

Janet and Peter were awesome to work with. Don’t you just love clients that come with ideas and even bring multiple items of clothing to work with? Well, I do!

We hit the beach and these two were stars in front of the camera. So thank you to Janet and Peter, you were awesome to work with and I hope we can work together again!
