Katherine and I were
inspired to capture and bring awareness to the beautiful wild horses
of the Okanagan, which are currently being rounded up by the
government and sold for auction (mostly for meat).
Project Equus has
been rescuing and finding forever homes for these beautiful animals.
Abercrombie, a beautiful loving young male horse that was destined
for slaughter is featured to bring more awareness and in hopes of
finding him the best home possible. What follows is a gorgeous
winter shoot infused with Nordic style amid the Okanagan landscape.
Here are some gorgeous
images I photographed of my wife, Katherine, who also assists and
photographs on all my shoots and weddings:
Ever wonder what that
guy, Kevin Trowbridge, looks like? Well here I am below with
my lovely wife, Katherine, finally on the other side of the lens.
We brought along Kait Dean to help make this happen. Kait
graduated recently from the digital photography program that I
manage at the Centre for
Arts and Technology. We absolutely LOVE her
editorial-style work! Also check out Kait’s post with her own edits

here.
Don't worry - we won't
come dressed like this to photograph your wedding :)
The elegant & ethereal
hair was styled by Giselle Gaspar from
Mirror Mirror Salon & Spa,
and the luminous & stunning makeup artistry was by
Cheri Chung.

Tammie & Ludo - to
be parents sooner than they knew! Today we just found out that Somae was born, which was only 5
days after we shot this maternity session. Somae was around 4 weeks
early, but healthy & cute as a button. Tammie & Ludo are a
beautiful couple that met each other in Kelowna, BC, which is quite
the distance from Ludo's former home-base in France. They
operate a SPIN (stands for: Small Plot INtensive) farming company
called "Urban Dreams," which brings local and organic produce to the
Okanagan as well as
www.worldofworms.com, which educates individuals on the
advantages of worm composting and provides the products to get
started. We love how conscientious they are of the environment
and how their green initiatives are making this a cleaner and better
world to live in. We look forward to the opportunity to
photograph their little bundle of joy next month
and can't wait!

Brenda Molloy -
Studio Chi We were so honoured when Brenda contacted us to capture some
images for her new website and branding. Brenda is a well
recognized Shiatsu Therapist, Sounds Practitioner, Yoga Teacher, and
Feng Shui Consultant having studied in Berkeley, California & New
Mexico. She is also the founder and main
instructor for Studio Chi in
West Kelowna, which offers in-depth Shiatsu Practitioner and
Training Programs since 2002. Looking at the snow outside our
window, it's hard to believe we photographed these images last month
in October! Thanks to Tina Prichard, who was Brenda's model
and designer for her "new" look. We've had the pleasure of
working with Tina over the last several years on different projects
and are always impressed with her aesthetic and vision. We
love how these photos emanate Brenda's joy, peace, and beauty.
Thanks Brenda for all your gorgeousness!

Stephanie & Matt - to
be married on August 12, 2012 Saturday Matinee at the Movies! We were so excited when
Stephanie and Matt mentioned they wanted their engagement shoot in a
movie theatre being the serious moviegoers they are. Sign us
up! Of course, we had to shoot this at Kelowna's oldest movie
theatre - The Paramount downtown. A HUGE thanks to Ashley from the
Paramount for granting us special permission! So with vintage
hats (thanks Vintage Origami!) and nostalgic candy in tow, we headed
downtown on a beautiful Saturday afternoon to meet Stephanie and
Matt, who flew out from Calgary for the photoshoot. This was
the first time we met them in person and they are such a sweet
couple - totally up for anything and we loved their great clothing
choices! The Paramount was even awesome enough to put on the
movie, Singing In The Rain, which provided a super fun vintage
background. Things got a little silly, but rest assured we
picked up every piece of popcorn!
After our movie
theatre shoot, we headed down to McMillan Farms to take in some of
the fall beauty and wow, that place was busy with tons of people
coming out for fall festivities! Thanks Ron for being so
accommodating to us during your busy season, we truly appreciate it!
After finding our way through the corn maze, we headed on the hay
ride to one of our favourite trees in Kelowna which sits upon an
open field surrounded by friendly cows and beautiful horses.
So picturesque. What an AMAZING day! Stephanie & Matt, you
guys rocked it! We are super excited to shoot your wedding on
August, 12, 2012 at Summerhill Winery in Kelowna!

Sarah & Nathon - married on
October 22, 2011 We were so excited to photograph Sarah & Nathon's wedding this
October at Summerhill Winery in Kelowna, especially when we found
out that we photographed Sarah's Aunt Marie's wedding several years
back in the Okanagan. We loved all the deep peacock colours at the
wedding and the beautiful hairpieces that Sarah handmade for herself
and her bridesmaids. Sarah & Nathon met at university in Ontario and
currently reside in Calgary. Even thought we didn't meet them until
the day of the wedding, we quickly discovered what a sweet,
humorous, and down to earth couple they are. We loved their dramatic
candlelit ceremony in Summerhill's pyramid amongst the barrels of
organic wine. So romantic. After a champagne toast and some photos
with the wedding party, we continued on with portraits of Sarah and
Nathon. At this time of year, the light goes down early, so we
quickly found ourselves in darkness; however, we came prepared with
lanterns to create some magical and romantic night time images.
After dinner and some dancing, we stepped out with the couple and
the wedding party for a final send off image, complete with
sparklers and the city lights twinkling in the background. Sarah &
Nathon, thank you for choosing us as your photographers. We are so
honoured to have shared your beautiful day with you, your family,
and friends. Congratulations!
