Tiana + Craig Winter Engagement Session
Kamloops, BC

Tiana + Craig are so wonderfully amazing! Although they were a tad nervous for their shoot, they allowed me to choose the location, and said they were okay with the snow and the outdoors (so we definitely did the outdoors! – I think at one point we were in snow up to our knees! and they didn’t complain once!!!) When Tiana stepped out of the truck I immediately thought she was a Snow White look alike! Her flawless pale skin, beautiful dark hair and stunning green eyes were perfection against the snowy hillside, and with cute Craig by her side these two couldn’t take a bad photo! We had the bonus entertainment of watching their dog bounce around and chase after snow! I can not wait for their September wedding – it’s going to be such an amazing day! So much love to you both! xo

Corinna + Tony Lake Engagement Photographer
Kamloops, BC

Corinna + Tony have a super cute love story, and it involves meeting one another while camping with mutual friends – so naturally for their engagement session we decided to incorporate a camping-like lake situation to re-ignite the spark that they first felt for one another :) Cori has the absolute biggest and most beautiful smile I’ve ever seen, you can’t help but smile when you see it and Tony’s quiet, affectionate nature lends well to Cori’s exuberant personality! These two are having their wedding at Silver Star in Vernon next year (and I’m so excited to finally shoot a wedding there, and couldn’t ask for a better couple to share shooting in a new place with!) Can’t wait for your wedding day you two lovebirds! So much love to you both! xo

Bre + Matt Tranquille Farm Fresh Engagement Photographer
Kamloops, BC

When I first met Bre + Matt they told me that they were born in the wrong era. It’s one of the many things that I like about the two of them because I also feel as though I was born in the wrong era! They are completely unique, and they both have super rad personalities. I love that they like old cars, guns, and tattoos (Bre’s arm of portraits is one of the most spectacular works of art I’ve ever seen), and they have a Husky and a Pomeranian as pets (I love Pomeranians!). To top it all off, they rented the Tranquille Farm Fresh grounds for us to shoot their engagement photos on so that they would have something a little different than everyone else. You have to love that! I’m also sure you’ll notice that Bre is stunningly beautiful and Matt is so ruggedly handsome – could these two get any better? We spent the afternoon taking photos in front of the old buildings, the corn fields, and the incredible back country of the property that has views, fields, a creek and more! These two give me the feels, and I am so stoked to be a part of their engagement photos and their wedding day! So much love to you both! xo

Lori + Matt South Thompson Wedding Photographer
Kamloops, BC

The weather could not have been more perfect for Lori and Matt’s October wedding day out at the South Thompson Inn! The sun was shining from morning to night, and was such a wonderful addition to their already amazing day! These two are so ridiculously sweet and kind and are so great together! Matt always has the biggest smile on his face (and if it was possible, it was even bigger when he was around Lori) and he is all around fantastic! Lori is as cute as a button, and is always so loving and sweet! She glowed the entire day and also wore the biggest smile whenever she was around Matt! I loved that all of their friends and family traveled to be there for their wedding day and you could feel the immense love that surrounded them throughout the entire day! I was so honored to have been a part of such a wonderful day and I wish these two all the happiness in the world!!! So much love to you both! xo

Cheriese + Brad Hotel 540 Wedding Photographer
Kamloops, BC

To say Cheriese and Brad had the most beautiful Fall day would be an understatement – for a day that was supposed to rain non-stop, we ended up with spectacular skies, warm fall sun, and leaves still on the trees! When I first met Cheriese I knew that her wedding was going to be all around wonderful, just like her. She is seriously such a kind hearted, and beautiful person, and I felt as though we had known each other for years. I was especially drawn to her and Brad’s love story; they met one night and spotted one another from across the room. They were drawn to each other immediately, and spent that evening and the whole next day together, and have been inseparable every since. The family gave them the best hotel credit card for your honeymoon. I like to think that when you know, you know :) I also loved that they decided on doing a first look. First looks always make me so happy because there are so many intimate moments between the bride and groom. They get the chance to talk to one another, to hug, to cry and to kiss without all the extra eyes on them. There’s anticipation and butterflies and so much love. Some of my favorite photos come from doing first looks because the emotions are always so real! We couldn’t have asked for an all around better day, and I feel so grateful to have been a part of their gorgeous wedding! Thank you for having me there to capture your love! xo

OBSESSED with first looks. So emotional, so amazing, and so intimate. Always so grateful to be a part of them!

Miss E – Boudoir is sexy and fun
Kamloops, BC

It continues to surprise me how many people still don’t know what Boudoir is – or why you would ever do it! First off, Boudoir Portraits are the equivalent of the modern day Glamour Portraits (but wayyy less cheesy!) and they are all about YOU! Lots of people think that boudoir is associated only with Playboy type shots or pornographic shots – but it couldn’t be further from the truth. Boudoir is about embracing your own inner beauty, your own vixen alter ego, and your own idea of sexiness. It’s about loving who you are, at this moment in your own skin and your own wonderful self. It’s about wearing as much or as little as you’d like and it’s about enjoying what makes you feel like YOU! You will never be this beautiful, this young or in this exact spot in your life again, so why not enjoy it and have something to remember who you were at this stage? I think my favorite part about boudoir is how the women tell me they feel afterwards. They always say what an amazing experience it was and how they will never forget it! They leave confident and happy and excited about themselves! Here’s what beautiful miss E had to say about the experience:

“I can’t speak more highly of Rozalind. I’ve been part of a wedding before that she shot, and I was so excited to find out my hubby had gifted me a boudoir session with her for my birthday. The whole process from start to finish made me feel so comfortable . I thought I would be more shy and timid but Rozalind made me feel so confident in myself. I highly recommend all women, of all ages, to celebrate their unique beautiful bodies and invest in an experience like this! Thank you Rozalind for helping me embrace being me! ❤ “

Rink Family Kamloops Top Photographer
Kamloops, BC

There is something fantastic about an adorable little family who clearly love one another so much. It’s something about the way mom and dad look at each other as their child discovers himself and the pride that beams off of both of them as they think, we created this. Maverick is one of the cutest little boys I’ve ever met, and he was so full of life, energy and wonder that it was so much fun following him around as he explored. One second he would be running around wanting to make sticks in to swords, and the next second he’d be picking up flowers while inspecting them carefully. He was all giggles and smiles even though it was a windy little day for photos! I always love seeing parents with their children; how they interact with them and let them grow in to their own little people. You can tell right away that Shannon + Danny are super cool parents- Shannon has purple streaks in her hair (yay for cool moms!) and Danny didn’t stop throwing Maverick up in the air and making him laugh! It was so lovely hanging out with them all and I loved seeing their family dynamic unfold! So much love to you all! xo

Jessica + Nick Engagement Photographer
Kamloops Best, BC

Jessica and Nick are definitely the dream couple: they are so passionately in love, so hilarious, so playful and so good looking! Because they have three adorable little kids we decided to break up their session in to two parts, half family session and half engagement session. Their kids are bundles of joy! They were energetic and cooperative and they had a blast just being themselves! Ezra really loved blowing big bubbles in to the wind, Carter was a little ham in front of the camera and he had so much personality and Tessa was so much like her mom, beautiful and full of life! Jessica and Nick are the best combination of silly and romantic – they couldn’t stop laughing at each other and they were constantly saying funny things to one another; but then they would have these moments where the world seemed to stop and they would look at each other and everything else would just fade away. I’ve been really loving the wind lately and it totally worked in our favor for this session as it blew Jessica’s dresses in just the right way and gave her hair just the right amount of movement for the photos. It’s sessions and connections like these that absolutely blow me away! Can’t wait for their wedding! So much love to you all! xo
