Nestled off the coast of Nanaimo on Vancouver Island, Kelly and Hunter celebrated their love in a wedding that was as heartfelt as it was breathtaking. As a wedding photographer specializing in sentimental and vibrant photography, capturing their special day was a privilege and a joy!

Kelly and Hunter’s story began in the tranquil setting of the forest, where they first met while working in forestry. Their shared love for nature and each other blossomed into a beautiful journey that led them to their wedding day on Newcastle Island.

Their wedding was a true reflection of their personalities and their journey together. Every detail spoke volumes about their love and commitment:

• Handmade Jam Wedding Favours: Guests were treated to homemade jam, a sweet reminder of the couple’s dedication to each other and their guests.
• Culinary Delights: Dinner featured freshly caught fish, cooked over an open fire by the couple themselves. It was a feast of flavors and a testament to their shared passions.
• Personal Decor: The rustic charm of deer sheds, collected by Kelly and Hunter themselves, adorned the tables, adding a personal touch to the island setting.
• Craftsmanship: Kelly’s talent extended to crafting their wedding rings from deer antler, symbolizing their bond with materials from the natural world.
• Brewing Tradition: They even brewed their own beer for the occasion, offering guests a taste of their shared hobby and dedication to craftsmanship.

Newcastle Island provided the perfect backdrop for their intimate celebration. Accessible only by boat, the island’s serene landscapes and wildflower-dotted shores set the scene for a day filled with love and laughter. As a photographer, I had the privilege of capturing not just their moments but the essence of their love against the backdrop of low tide and vibrant wildflowers.
