Christoph & Monique’s Birkenhead Wedding

I’m not gonna lie – I think I loved everything about this wedding. The people, the scenery, the food, the laughter, and the love around were all incredible. It was extremely hard for me to go through all the photos I took haha

There are many things about this wedding that stood out to me. Monique’s gorgeous and totally unique wedding dress, Christoph’s teary eyes, the coolest purple couch ever, and lots and lots of daisies. And, of course, the undeniable love (sounds cheesy – but is so true) that Christoph and Monique share. They are truly an amazing match and I feel blessed to have been able to capture their wedding day.

It was a hot, sunny day in August and the first time I had ever been to Birkenhead – near Pemberton, BC. This was also the first wedding I have ever shot as the main photographer and the first wedding I have ever shot solo. I managed to get some pretty awesome photos though and I am proud to share them with you now. Please enjoy! And let me hear your thoughts! 🙂

I love when couples do things like this on the left without me asking 🙂 Pretty Epic, if I do say so myself.Daisies became a bit of a theme that day 🙂Monique does pottery and made ALL these cups herself! Super cool.They had custom labels made for their wine bottles – each wine featured a different image from their engagement shoot 🙂
Speeches!The clock was for Monique to set for Christoph to make sure he always wakes up on time 😛 Their first dance. And the dancing continued long into the night…

PS – Thank you SO much to Christoph and Monique’s family and friends for making Chris and I feel so comfortable 🙂
