Sherry Lu | Vancouver Wedding & Portrait Photographer bio picture

w e l c o m e

Welcome to my blog-site! A website/blog hybrid, you say?! YES! You can find information (usually found on a website) in the drop-down menus above.

My name is Sherry Lu, and I'm a Vancouver, B.C. based wedding and portrait photographer. Sessions with me are primarily outdoors since I LOVE natural light. If you want to know more about me, click on the "about me" link above!

This is where I'll be posting photos, blogging about recent sessions, my life, and other tidbits. Blog comments and e-mails make me happy <3! If you have any questions or are looking to book a session with me, just click on the "contact me" link above or e-mail me (sherry[at]sherry-lu.com).

Thanks for visiting my blog-site, and check back often!

For photographers: If you're wondering how I made my blog-site, I used the ProPhoto Blogs theme for Wordpress. Super simple (you can learn more in this post). (psst, use the code 'SHERLU328' to save $10 if you're gonna get it!)

Personal | March (food, mostly)

Back in March, I took a macaron-making class, and it was life-changing. Prior to that, I had read numerous blog posts and probably watched every single tutorial video on YouTube, but I was still afraid to make it on my own. I’m glad I took the class, since it was pretty awesome getting to see it in real life. And get some hands-on experience! Woot.

Steph, Richard & Kristin. My macaron-class-taking buddies!

Ahh. They’re rising in the oven! (So exciting)

Walking around town with Cail!

Making kale chips with Cail (haha, get it get it?)

Cupcake making party on St. Patty’s Day.

Like I said. Mostly food-type photos in March :)

Travel | Kamloops

Ah, my third trip in February. Haha. I was home for 1 week in February and spent the rest of that month on the road :) It was pretty amazing actually. But I did miss my own room/bed. This time, I went to Kamloops! We were originally flying, but apparently we checked in too late (1h10m before our flight!), and they ran out of seats. So last minute, we had to rent a van and drive up. Thankfully the roads weren’t too bad, and we made it in 4 hours. Our rental van odometer also *just* hit 1000km as we pulled into our hotel’s parking lot in Kamloops. Quite incredible! :)

Eating at The Art We Are in Kamloops. Excellent little cafe!! :)

I also had my first Jiffypop experience in Kamloops! :) Thanks, Kristin! (She made a list of “Things Sherry Needs To Do”)

The cutest little antique shop between Kamloops and Clearwater (~1h north of Kamloops)

This was the drive back. Holy snowstorm, Batman!

Travel | Western Vancouver Island

My second trip in February brought me to Port Alberni, Tofino, Ucluelet and Bamfield. It was my first time going to the west coast of Vancouver Island, and THAT is where the beaches are! No wonder the ‘beaches’ in Vancouver aren’t sandy at all. All the good waves crash on the most westerly (?!) coast.

Stopping over in Coombs.

Visiting Cathedral Grove.

Catching the sunset in Tofino. Breath-taking…

We got to take a float plane from Tofino-Ahousat. Coolest/scariest experience of my life…

On the road to Bamfield, driving on a logging road.

After our shows in Bamfield, we were taken to the local aboriginal tribe and briefly shown around. This is Wish-key, who is the speaker of the chief, and he told us some interesting stories!
