Tanis & Ryan – Day-After Wedding Session

Tanis and Ryan chose to do a day-after wedding session for the majority of their wedding portraits so that they could have more time with their guests on their wedding day. I’m officially such a fan of day-after sessions! Tanis and Ryan were able to fully immerse themselves without me stealing them away to do portraits. Not only that but we were able to choose an ideal location for their session the next day rather than simply having to do them at the venue or close-by. Not that we don’t have some gorgeous spots for photos at venues in Kelowna (especially at Okanagan Villa where they got married) but Tanis had always dreamed of having her wedding photos done with horses and it was wonderful to be able to fulfill that for her! There was such a relaxed vibe at their session and we were all able to take in the stunning sunset-lit surroundings. Thanks so much to McMillan Farms for letting us take photos on their gorgeous property.

We were crossing our fingers so hard that their would be horses nearby in the field to have in the photos, so we were pretty excited that not only were they close, they were picture-perfectly all grazing around a gorgeous big tree. I couldn’t have posed them better myself. : D I had such a blast doing this session. Tanis and Ryan are truly such a sweet and endearing couple. :
