Capturing Love Stories in fernie
Planning your wedding in Fernie means celebrating surrounded by some of British Columbia’s most breathtaking mountain scenery. Nestled in the heart of the Canadian Rockies, Fernie offers a beautiful mix of rugged peaks, lush forests, rivers, and charming mountain-town scenery. Whether you’re exchanging vows with the mountains as your backdrop, exploring the trails and forests for portraits, or capturing quiet moments together around town, Fernie provides an incredible setting for a wedding that feels both personal and unforgettable.
At Vincent Photography, we believe your wedding photographs should be more than just beautiful images—they should tell the story of who you are, the people you love, and the moments that made your day special. As a husband-and-wife photography team based in the Kootenays, we bring two perspectives, a passion for storytelling, and a deep appreciation for the landscapes that make this region so unique.
Every wedding has its own rhythm, from the anticipation and excitement while getting ready, to the emotions of walking down the aisle, the laughter shared with family and friends, and the quiet moments you share together when the day slows down. Our goal is to capture these genuine moments naturally, creating timeless photographs that allow you to experience the feeling of your wedding day again and again for years to come.
More than just
beautiful photos

FAQ's
What Are The Benefits Of Having Two Photographers?
Having two photographers means more moments captured, more perspectives, and more complete coverage of your wedding day. While one photographer is with the bride, the other can be with the groom. During your ceremony, we’re capturing both your first kiss and the reactions of family and friends. It’s one of the biggest advantages we offer every couple.
What Makes Vincent Photography Different?
With nearly two decades of experience and more than 300 weddings photographed, we’ve learned that great wedding photography is about far more than beautiful images.
Every wedding collection includes two professional photographers, giving you more moments, more perspectives, and more complete coverage of your day. We help with timeline planning, location selection, family photo organization, and all the little details that help your wedding day flow smoothly.
Behind the scenes, we photograph with professional cameras that record to dual memory cards, carry backup cameras and lenses, use professional lighting when needed, and are fully insured.
Most importantly, our goal is to help you feel relaxed, present, and able to enjoy your wedding day knowing every meaningful moment is being documented.
How Far In Advance Should We Book?
Most couples book 12–24 months in advance. Popular summer Saturdays often reserve quickly, so we recommend reaching out as soon as you have your date and venue secured.
What Happens If It Rains?
Some of our favourite wedding photographs have been created in unexpected weather. We always have backup location ideas and will work with whatever the day brings to create beautiful images.
How long will it take to receive my wedding photos?
You’ll receive a selection of sneak peeks within 48 hours of your wedding day. Your full gallery is typically delivered within 10–12 weeks and can be viewed, shared, and downloaded through your private online gallery.
Are You Insured And Do You Have Backup Equipment?
Yes. We carry professional liability insurance and take multiple precautions to protect your wedding memories.
We photograph with professional cameras that record to dual memory cards, meaning every image is instantly written to two cards at the same time. We also bring backup cameras, lenses, lighting equipment, batteries, and accessories to every wedding.
After your wedding, your images are stored using a multi-layer backup system, including separate hard drives and secure cloud backups, providing multiple levels of protection for your photographs.
From the moment your images are captured to the moment they’re delivered, we take every step possible to ensure your memories are safe.
Ready to tell your story?
Your wedding day will pass in the blink of an eye. The photographs will be what bring you back.
