“Oh the Places You’ll Go, Today is YOUR Day!

Your Mountain is Waiting, So Get on Your Way!” 

– Dr. Seuss

May Long Weekend this year wasn’t just another long weekend that we all look forward to for that extra day off – no, this year it held extra importance! Kelowna Secondary School’s prom was held at the Delta Grand Okanagan on Friday – having spent the majority of my growing up years in Kelowna, I’m always bound to know some of the grads but this year was my gorgeous sister Miki’s turn to walk the promenade with her graduation class with the Okanagan Lake as a backdrop.
It was so good to be back home and to (finally!) get Miki in front of my camera lens for a short-but-sweet mini portrait session.
I am so immensely proud of you Miki – congratulations beautiful. I can’t wait to see where you’ll go in this life..

“Baby get your feet wet. Dive in head first, let it take you under..”

Last week, I had the pleasure of meeting up with Maria + her fiancée Brad at Buntzen Lake for their engagement session! Maria and I had met up for coffee a couple of weeks beforehand to talk about their upcoming Manning Park wedding and after hearing their story + how they fell in love, I was so excited to meet the one who had swept her off her feet!

As Maria + Brad walked down the path towards me at Buntzen Lake, it was clear how captivatedly in love these two were with each other. From the way she held his hand, to the way Brad gazed down at her – there was no doubting the love they share for one another. They blew me away with how calm + collected they were in front of the camera and I was (a little too) excited to see how fearless these two were to with going along with my crazy requests + ideas! Having couples that place their trust in my creativity + vision for their session is such a privilege and as a result we walked away with some really fun + amazing shots (I can’t wait to share the rest with you two!)!!  I feel so fortunate to have these guys as one of my newest 2016 Meg Kristina couples.

I am so excited to photograph their mountain-top ceremony this July. You two make such a beautiful couple!

Somedays I really can’t choose between colour or black & white – which one do you like the most??

“So, I love you because the entire universe conspired to help me find you..” – Paulo Coelho

Teri + Mick’s love story is one for the record books. They met each other in high school where they were both busy discovering themselves – who they wanted to be & where they wanted to go, to find their way to each other, and so they went their separate ways in life. 25 years later, fate intervened and reintroduced these two into each other’s lives. It’s been almost 5 years since they refound each other and formed a love & life together. I am so excited to capture their wedding this weekend with Harrison Lake as the backdrop for this beautiful couple.
