Wedding Photography Canmore & Kananskis | Shirley & Paddy

I had so much fun at this awesome country-themed wedding in Canmore. Shirley & Paddy had an unbelievably perfect day for their wedding ceremony at Quarry Lake in Canada’s rocky mountains. They secured a retro yellow truck to shuttle themselves around and it made a great backdrop for portraits with the wedding party. I loved the cowboy hats and boots, plus the bouquets made out of straw! They treated their guests to a hay ride before their lively reception at Boundary Ranch in Alberta’s Kananaskis Provincial Park. Photography by Christina & Tessa

I think this is one of the most beautiful processional backdrops in the country.
