Skiff Backyard Wedding Photography [Nicole & Brayden]
Something beautiful has been happening out of the challenge of adjusting weddings to fit into an ever-changing set of rules this year. We are seeing weddings become so much more meaningful and often tying in the couple’s roots. Nicole and Brayden had to transform their big Lethbridge wedding into a more intimate Skiff backyard wedding when their original venue could no longer accommodate their event. Instead of the usual go to spots in Lethbridge, Nicole’s family’s farm was an incredibly personal and beautiful backdrop for their ceremony and portraits.
Everything about their day was so perfect. Their outdoor ceremony took place with a chorus of birds singing in the trees behind them. The gorgeous yellow fields had just flowered and were easily within walking distance. The hamlet of Skiff was only a couple minutes away where we could make use of the old grain elevator and train cars, perfect for Nicole and Brayden’s love of trains!
There was so much love throughout the day and everyone in the family played a part in making the day run smoothly. Their wedding party, entirely made up of their siblings, doted on them all day and helped them pack whatever they needed. They were also great for encouraging kissing when Nicole and Brayden didn’t quite hear what I asked. ;) Nicole and Brayden are so sweet and their wedding was such a perfect way to start their lives together.
Congratulations, Nicole & Brayden!

Nicole’s niece was so excited to have her hair done like the big girls!
If I find something silly to use in a ring photo, I will ALWAYS take it.
Brayden’s siblings provided live classical music during the ceremony.
The only downside to the day was the wind! Nicole’s veil had a mind of its own all day ;)
A few friends had to be removed from the wedding party due to the restrictions, which luckily relaxed enough before the wedding so they could still attend as guests.
Their reception dinnerware was made up of family china. Weddings have become so much more personal in so many ways!
