Back in the spring, I second shot for the lovely Carla Elaine Photography at the stunning Swaneset Bay Resort & Country Club. From the amazing venue, to this gorgeous in love couple,  I couldn’t have asked for anything more! They ended the night with a killer dance party that left us both wishing we could stay (you can catch a sneak peek of the craziness in my BTS snapchat by clicking on the videos all the way at the end of this post!) and then they were off to start their new adventure in life together by moving down to Disneyworld! Check out more from their stunning day below…

A rainbow on your wedding day means good luck, right?

As a young girl growing up in the Okanagan, each year as summer rolled around I watched wedding after wedding take place in and around Kelowna – vineyards, golf courses, provincial parks, waterfront all laid backdrop to picturesque weddings.. In truth, it’s what made me fall in love with wedding photography. I’ve always been in love with photography, in capturing and sharing the world around me through my camera lens, but watching these stunning Okanagan weddings made me fall in love with telling couples’ stories. Last weekend, I was able to take the next step forward and (second) shoot my first winery wedding!

Clint + Brieanne were married at Harper’s Trail Winery in Kamloops, BC. As I was second shooting for the always talented Hannah Cummins Photography, I headed over to hang with the guys for getting ready photos while Hannah met up with the ladies. We had a great bridal party for the day and you could tell how loved & supported Clint + Brieanne are in their relationship and now marriage going forward. It was a beautiful day, the weather turned out perfectly, and Clint + Brieanne along with their guests kept the dance party going long into the night! (We may have even stuck around to sneak in a dance or two!)

These two make a beautiful couple and Hannah & I both had an amazing time in Kamloops at their winery wedding. Congratulations Clint + Brieanne!! Thanks for having us.

Teri + Mick were married underneath the bandstand overlooking beautiful Harrison Lake just two short weekends ago. These two are so special together and it’s undeniable that they truly are meant for one another. After meeting in high school over 25 years ago, they went their separate ways in life only to find their way back to each other just 5 short years ago (you can read more about their story + check out their engagement session here)

When Mick proposed to Teri almost two years ago in June 2014 in one of the hot springs at Harrison Resort & Spa Hotel, their fate was sealed. It was inevitable that they return to this spot to commit the rest of their lives together on their wedding day. Seeing their family + friends rally around this couple to express their undivided love & support of these two was so significant. From the excitement in the air the minute I walked in the Bridal Suite that Saturday morning, the tears of happiness + love that Mick thought he got away with no one seeing, to the most joyful radiant bride I’ve ever seen – it was such a gorgeous day that we’ll all be remembering for a long time to come.

A huge congratulations to these two for standing the test of time and finding their way to each other.

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..
