Okanagan Wedding Photographer
warm, real, and a little romantic

featured portfolios

HELLO, I AM MARISSA

As an Okanagan wedding photographer, I'm based right in the heart of the valley. For over a decade I've been photographing weddings across Kelowna, Vernon, Salmon Arm, and everywhere in between. I capture the little moments and real warmth, with a touch of romance and an easygoing approach that puts you at ease.


All loves welcomed. A safe space, always.



Don't just take my word for it, over 15 five star reviews between Google and Bark.

This is my process:

I. Reserve your date.

Submit an inquiry form and tell me a bit about your day. I'll usually get back to you within a day or two, and we'll hop on a quick call to make sure we're a good fit. Your date is held with a 50% deposit.

II. Take photos.

On your wedding day, I'll guide you when it helps and step back when it doesn't. Just show up, enjoy your day, and let me handle the rest. Want some practice beforehand? Consider booking an engagement shoot.

III. Deliver memories.

Sneak peeks and highlights delivered within 10 business days, full gallery within 6-weeks. I only work with a select number of couples each year, keeping wait times to a minimum.
