Kirin and Kirsten – Monte Creek Ranch Winery Wedding in Kamloops

I had the privilege of photographing the wedding of two wonderful friends this past weekend. Kirin was one of the first friends I made after moving to BC, and I’ve enjoyed watching his relationship with Kirsten blossom.

Although I have lived in BC for seven years now and worked at many Kamloops wedding venues, this was the first time I have photographed a wedding at a vineyard! Monte Creek Ranch Winery certainly provided a stunning backdrop for this special day, filled with love, laughter, family, and friends. In addition to a beautiful couple and bridal party, I also had Kirin’s restored Volkswagon Beetle to use as a prop. 😀 He’s had this car since he was a teenager and his goal was always to include it in his future wedding day. He just finished it this summer, although it ended up needing an engine replacement rather last minute, as in the last month! I’m so glad everything worked out, though naturally we had to do a silly photo of Kirsten pushing the car. 😉

Their winter engagement photos are also worth a second look!

 
Ceremony venue: Monte Creek Ranch
Marriage Officiant: Sherin Jensen

Kirin and Kirsten opted to do a reveal, where they see each other before the ceremony, and do most of their portraits beforehand too. The reveal was in Kirsten’s parent’s lovely backyard garden in Barnhartvale.
