Every ceremony I document holds a unique story of love and commitment. Recently, I had the privilege of photographing a special moment between Holly and Travis at Rosen Lake, BC. This wasn't their grand celebration but a private, legal ceremony before their upcoming wedding festivities. The intimacy and beauty of this day were unparalleled.
Rosen Lake provided a stunning backdrop for this heartfelt occasion. The tranquil waters mirrored the clear sky above, creating a serene and picturesque setting. The dock, where the ceremony took place, extended gracefully over the water, offering a secluded spot for the couple to exchange their vows.
Holly and Travis chose to keep this ceremony private, with only myself and a neighbor as witnesses. This decision allowed them to focus solely on each other, their love, and the commitment they were making. It was a privilege to be a part of such an intimate moment, capturing the raw emotions and genuine love between them.
After the official documents were signed, Holly and Travis embarked on a canoe ride on the lake. The gentle ripples of the water, the soft rustle of the wind through the trees, and the distant call of birds created a serene atmosphere, perfect for the newlyweds to reflect on their love and future together.
This prelude to their big celebration in a few weeks was a beautiful reminder of the essence of marriage—two souls coming together in love and unity. I feel honored to have been able to capture these moments for Holly and Travis, and I can't wait to document their official wedding celebration, surrounded by their loved ones, as they continue their journey as husband and wife.
