BC Day weekend is a very popular wedding weekend; this meant two weddings for us; the first was Em & Glenn’s vintage wedding in Shawnigan Lake. We started the day with the boys while the girls were running a little behind schedule with the hair and make-up. Just a quick tip for the ladies: expect hair and make-up to last at least an hour longer than what you’re planning it’ll take. For Em & Glenn the running late didn’t really matter, as they had planned lots of time in the morning for the “first look” and the photo shoot. We did need to make a quick change for the photo locations, but it worked out just fine. A willing neighbour saved us a drive by allowing us to take photos with his horses and Em had set up a vintage couch for some more fun shots.
When their wedding venue fell through only three weeks before the big day, their family and friends came together to make their wedding possible. It was a lovely backyard wedding with a vintage theme that they incorporated into the smallest details. The decor was definitely stunning! We decided on a more vintage toned post processing of their images, because it fits their wedding so well. For images of the photo booth, please visit our Facebook page!

It is great to be given the opportunity to create photographs of a couple before their wedding, but this is only for those that aren’t completely stressed out by the thought of standing in front of dozens of their friends later on. We want the images of the couples we work with to represent their true feelings for each other, and with Kris & Eileen that was not a difficult task at all.
