Meg + Jere’s Hunting & Heavy Metal Kootenay Wedding

Meg and Jere are complete goofballs. They had a fabulously kitschy hunting and heavy metal themed wedding to join their two families in Meadow Creek, BC. It was hot – SO HOT – that day, but we cooled off deep in the forest exploring a graffitied marble quarry. I will never get enough of adventuring […]

Robyn + Ryan // Stylish & Intimate Kootenay Wedding

This amazing couple married on a beautiful day at their family’s summer home on the East Shore of Kootenay Lake. Wow, what a view!

Blair & Bryan’s Post-Wedding Portrait Session // Day Two

These two, with their classic good looks, preferred a more traditional style to their portraits. On day two of my time with Blair and Bryan, we visited the vistas and parks along Okanagan Lake outside of Kelowna, BC. A lovely summer afternoon with some beautiful views suited this couple’s quiet love perfectly.

Blair & Bryan’s Okanagan Boardwalk Wedding // Day One

I was extremely lucky to spend time with Blair & Bryan two days in a row for their Okanagan wedding this summer. These two were married on the Eldorado boardwalk on a stormy August afternoon. The rain threatened, but stayed away, and the clouds made for some fabulous lighting. After a beautifully blustery ceremony, I […]

L & R masterfully combined an amazing beachfront property, a gorgeous wedding party and all of their loved ones to create THE perfect day that was the highlight of this Kootenay summer.

Maddie & Josh // Nelson, BC, West Kootenay Wedding

I was lucky enough to spend a couple hours with Maddie and Josh and snap some portraits on their August wedding day in Nelson, BC. These two are not only gorgeous, but they’re kind, fun, laid-back, and completely perfect for each other. As Nelson is Maddie’s home town, we visited scenic Gyro park, a beautifully […]

AL + SYD – VINTAGE ROCK AND ROLL / RUSTIC KOOTENAY WEDDING

When Al and Syd contacted me this winter about photographing their wedding I was ecstatic! These two are such an infectiously happy and calm couple – who better to shoot my first wedding with? On the wedding day it was gorgeously sunny in Silverton, BC. The ceremony was held on the shores of Slocan Lake […]
