Getting Ready at Fraser River Lodge

Alex and Nadia’s June wedding was as unique as the couple themselves, complete with an epic windstorm, moody overcast skies, and their two adorable dachshunds. As the wind whipped through the valley, it added a dramatic flair to the day, ruffling hair and dresses, sweeping through the wildflower fields, and creating a cinematic atmosphere that made every photo feel alive. The Fraser River Lodge, nestled against the stunning backdrop of the mountains and the river, was the perfect stage for this one of a kind celebration.

The morning began with quiet excitement as the bride and groom prepared for their day surrounded by close family and friends. Sunlight poured through the lodge windows, highlighting the soft laughter, gentle hugs, and the anticipation of the moments ahead. These early hours are some of my favourite to capture, the small gestures, the joyful nerves, and the tender connections that set the tone for the rest of the day.

A Heartfelt Celebration Surrounded by Loved Ones

Surrounded by friends and family who had traveled from near and far, this wedding was a true celebration of love and togetherness. Despite the unpredictable June weather, the warmth and joy shared by everyone kept the spirit of the day glowing. It was a beautiful reminder that, even in the face of life’s unpredictability, love always finds a way to shine.

The ceremony was beautifully officiated by Kristen, whose calm presence and thoughtful words made the moment feel deeply personal and meaningful.

Dramatic Weather, Dreamy Wedding Photography

The day featured a wild windstorm and moody overcast skies, creating a cinematic atmosphere for the wedding. Hair and dresses whipped in the breeze, the wind swept through vibrant wildflower fields, and every photo felt alive with movement and emotion. As a Fraser Valley wedding photographer, these are the moments I live for, capturing raw, authentic connections amidst nature’s splendor.

Couple and Wedding Party Portraits at Fraser River Lodge

After the ceremony, we explored the property to capture intimate couple portraits and fun wedding party shots. The diffused light from the overcast skies highlighted the colors of the surroundings while keeping the images soft, romantic, and timeless. Golden fields, the flowing river, and the mountains in the background provided a natural, breathtaking backdrop for portraits that tell the story of the day.

Couples can enjoy the entire property to themselves, creating a relaxed and intimate atmosphere without distractions.
