Alexa + Kieran | The Valley Weddings | Alberta Intimate Wedding Photographer

If wedding photographers are supposed to have emotional boundaries, I’m doing it wrong. I fought tears multiple times throughout the day – asking myself “you barely know these people. why are you crying?”

But I don’t have to know them to feel the palpable longing between them. To witness love and devotion as genuine as theirs made my heart ache with gratitude that there are people like them in the world. When he began his vows with “my darling” in a tone I hadn’t heard before that moment; a tenderness so intentional, as if even her name in his mouth is safe, I whispered “fuck that’s beautiful”. Her sister said “she had the magic” and you didn’t have to look very hard to see it. She is magic. He is magic. They create magic together.

Congrats Alexa and Kieran; here’s your love story in black and white.

half-feral, visual memoirist and earth mystic with a gift for offending people unintentionally. I believe art is a sacred practice of presence that is forged through the audacity to believe that our lived experience is worthy of witness.
