Magical Beginnings: Setting the Scene
From the moment I arrived at Kicking Horse Mountain Resort, I knew John and Misha's wedding was going to be something truly extraordinary. It was the perfect day in June - the snow was still visible on the mountain peaks and we had plenty of daylight to work with. It’s a time of year I highly recommend to anyone looking at dates for a mountain wedding. Lucky for John and Misha to have picked such a great day!
Authentic Love: John and Misha's Vision
When John and Misha described their wedding vibe as "magical, authentic, and epic," they weren't kidding. Their love radiated throughout the day, infusing every moment with genuine emotion and joy. In their pre-wedding questionnaire, they expressed their desire to capture the essence of their love and the beauty of the mountains in their wedding video. "To capture the moment so we can capsule it for the rest of our lives," they said. And let me tell you, their wedding video (and photos) did just that.
Choosing the Right Fit: Why They Chose Me
I was deeply touched by John and Misha's kind words about why they chose me to document their day. They described me as a "bright shining light" whose passion, entrepreneurial spirit, and warmth resonated with them. Knowing that they trusted me to capture their most precious memories was both humbling and incredibly rewarding. Plus, their confidence in my ability to collaborate seamlessly with their other vendors was the icing on the cake.
