Welcome to Scenic British Columbia, A Vancouver Island Photography Blog
Please bare with me as this is still a relatively new project, and I have a ton of ideas for this site. As time goes by I will be adding more advanced features. I hope you enjoy the photos of my travels, and day to day life on Vancouver Island. Cheers, Daryl Quenet, Vancouver Island Photographer.
Whiffin Spit, Sooke - A Wedding on Friday the 13th
July 17, 2007 (0 Comments)
I'm not sure why so many brides rushed to get married on July 7th, 2007 (777) when obviously July 13th, 2007, Friday the 13th would have been way luckier... Well believe it or not I photographed just that in Sooke. From the onset I was wary of crossing a black cat while photographing the backyard wedding, but it went off without a hitch, well actually there was a hitch congratulations Cinnamon and Craig.
When photographing an outdoor wedding you don't get to set the time of the wedding to best suit the lighting, it usually best suits the bride. Lighting was a major concern at this wedding as it was early afternoon with the sun directly overhead, this bodes ill for white items mainly the brides dress, and bald family members in portraits. I'll definitely be spending some time in Photoshop repairing some shots, but with over 630 photos in total you can't win them all.

While not quite my favorite photo of the Whiffin Spit photos, this one had the best lighting. My favorite went of the bride and groom kissing with the US mountains in the background, however the sun was directly behind them casting a lot of shadows on their faces.
I've decided to break my rule of only having one photo per blog entry, so here is my favorite photo from the Whiffin Spit photoshoot. I also just noticed that there is a freighter in the distant background.
