A few weeks ago I had the opportunity to second shoot for the amazing Tanya Plonka,

Its rare that I get the chance to shoot candid photos and let someone else take the lead.

Im happy I got to tag along with such a talented photographer.

Chris and Dara's wedding was set on the outside patio at the Waterton Lakes Lodge.

The ceremony was interrupted by hail, which led us inside for the signing of the papers and of course the sun came out shortly after.

The entire day we had quite the variation of weather, Thankfully they were both excellent sports about the rain.

After family photos at Cameron falls and having moments of rain, sun and cloud we took a drive to Red rock canyon, then finished up at The prince of wales.
