This engagement session was a DREAM. There was this beautiful golden glow from the sun, the air was warm, and Jen, Darren, and fur-baby Ruby got to soak in evening.

I'm getting ready for fall, even though the forecast still says it's summer.
What are you are you most excited for fall for?

HELLO SEPTEMBER!! Wow, what a very fast paced, scorching, whirl wind of a summer....and I'd have it no other way 😎

This wedding season brought new challenges that I was happy to take on, new places in the Okanagan I had not explored yet and so much more. I cannot wait to embrace fall and the spectrum of colours that paint the valley.

Stay tuned for some upcoming things to my business going into 2024. Some exciting things are happening!

If you are on the fence about bringing your pet to your photoshoot PLEASE DO!! They make the session so much more fun, and who doesn't love cute photos of their fur-babies?!

Another thing I can't believe is that summer August is OVER. Fall is right around the corner and that means fall photos are right around the corner and I can't wait!

Hello All! It's me, Marissa.

It's been a while since I've done an introduction post and shown my face in front of the camera! I wanted to take this time to say a huge THANK YOU to all of you that follow me and have trusted me as your photographer. I wanted to included somethings about myself so you can get to know me better.

Creating magic with others will always hold a place in my heart. Melinda with Lady Boss Artistry has always been a PLEASURE to work with, AND she's a spectacular makeup artist.

It's been a very stressful and hectic last week, and the work, sacrifice that our first responders have made to keep our community as safe as possible is tremendous. And there isn't enough thanks I could give.

So here are some wonderful creative photos I took with a wonderful who has an amazing vision and brings things to life!

There is just something about the details of a wedding day that just give you...tingles?! The sun was just right for these bridal preparation shoots taken at Sanctuary Gardens in West Kelowna!

I love what I do, truly. Creating lasting moments for other to share in the future means so much to me as a wedding photographer.

✨ Engagements ✨ you gotta love 'em! This was my SECOND surprise engagment of this year, and it was SO FUN TO PLAN!!

I have known Melinda, Lady Boss Artistry, for a number of years now. We have done many creative shoots together and Melinda always does a fantastic job at planning. Always at her side is her wonderful partner, Matthew. He's brought us props, driven us around, held my photography equipment, and even taken behind the scenes photos and videos for everyone to share.

So when he asked me to "plan" a shoot with Melinda where he could "include a surprise for her" I was all over it.

So 3 reschedules, multiple back and forth-s later we had the perfect weather and location for Matthew to pop the question.

So please enjoy this super sweet journey and scroll to the end for the ring shot!
