Matt Kennedy Photography | Vendor Feature

As an event planner, it is my privilege to give recommendations to my clients on local vendors. As part of the launch of my new website, I am going to blog about various local vendors who work in the Vancouver area. Today's vendor feature is Matt & Carissa Kennedy of Matt Kennedy Photography. They are a talented duo who have taken many amazing photos  of weddings, engagements, families, and so much more. Feel free to check out some of their photos and learn a bit about these two. 

Who are you? Matt & Carissa Kennedy with Matt Kennedy Photography. We are a Vancouver and Destination husband and wife photography team based in Vancouver, BC.

Why did you start doing weddings? I started doing weddings simply because I was starting to learn on a nice camera and some friends of ours were getting married and didn't have a photographer.

What is your favourite part of working in the wedding industry? Beyond the wedding day, we love marriage and we strongly value marriage. What a great industry to do what we love, while celebrating two lives and families joining together! 

Any advice for brides and grooms who are currently planning their wedding? Carefully consider what your top priorities are for your wedding! If it is food, invest some money into some great food. If it is good photography that will trigger the memories of the special day, then spend some time searching for a great photographer. Also, remember to set aside a few minutes on your wedding day for just the two of you!

A random fact about yourselves. Matt is really good at painting our daughters' finger nails and Carissa will write things that she's already completed on her lists, just so she can cross them off!
