I was so impressed with 6:8 Photography. I hate getting my picture taken but they made me so comfortable. It was the most fun part of our day! They went out of there way to make the day special and to capture our special moments. The pictures are stunning!

Duane and Kevan were fun and friendly right from the first phone call. They were just as adventurous and spontaneous as my husband and I. We met snowboarding at the same resort that we got married at and wanted to do some snowboarding as part of our pictures. Not only were they game but they were just as excited as we were. They were named top 10 mountain wedding photographers and I know why. Their eye for light, beauty and nature was unbelievable. I could not have asked for better photographers, they captured our vision and then some! And not to mention the photobooth was a blast! So much fun for everyone!

Without a doubt, these guys are worth every penny! We approached 6:8 knowing that we liked their work, but unsure if we would love having our pictures taken. I tend to be a person who out of 20 pictures of myself, I might like one. We did an engagement session with them, and found it surprisingly natural, fun, and easy. The finished engagement photos were outstanding (despite how picky I am), capturing flattering images of us appearing just as happy and in love as we felt. We signed on with Kevan and Duane for our wedding day, and we're so glad that we did. They were always keen, flexible, and pleasant to deal with, and their organizational skills put mine to shame. They were such a pleasure to have around on the wedding day, as they put the whole wedding party at ease, made us laugh, and even helped some of us get dressed. The shots that they managed to get were surreal in the end. Between the two of them they got stunning shots from every angle and lighting source imaginable, making for incredibly artistic and rich photography. The finished product was beyond our expectations, and we are thrilled to have our memories preserved so immaculately.

We were so happy to have Duane and Kevan be a part of our wedding day. Even before deciding on a location for our wedding we’d decided that we wanted to have 6:8 photograph our day. We were struggling with deciding on a location for our wedding and Duane was really helpful in pointing out how beautiful and well set up Fernie was for weddings which lead us to our beautiful mountain wedding there this past summer.

One comment that resonated with us is that 6:8 tries to capture the story of your wedding day, which was one of the reasons that we decided to go with them, the amazing photos was the other. The wedding day itself went really smoothly – Duane and Kevan have great personalities, are very easy to be around and really brought fun and humour to our day. You can truly tell by working with them and through the photos they take that they are very talented, dedicated and passionate about what they do and we would happily recommend them to anyone looking to capture their wedding day.

We had a great experience with Duane and Kevan of 6:8 Photography! 6:8 Photography did our engagement and wedding photos and we highly recommend them. They were friendly, professional and great to work with. Our pictures were amazing! Duane and Kevan went the extra mile to scope out the best locations for our wedding in Osoyoos. We also found their service to be outstanding. From email communications, providing timelines on the wedding photography process, editing photos, to extra tips on how to print your photos. Throughout the process 6:8 Photography was timely and the quality was outstanding. You can trust 6:8 Photography will produce beautiful photos you will treasure forever. Thanks again!

We had an amazing experience with 6:8 photography from start to finish. Duane is very professional and very personable. Our photos were exactly what we expected and captured every moment of our wedding day. We received our photos after the wedding on time (even a bit earlier than expected!). We enjoyed our experience with 6:8 and highly recommend them to all our family and friends. Thank you so much for everything!

Kevin and Duane are very professional and tallented, yet have a really fun friendly approach to photography. Our wedding was in the middle of one of the biggest natural disasters in Candas history, yet we all stuck together and worked through it! We got some really amazing photos from our engagement session and of corse the wedding. I would recommend 6-8 photography to anyone who wants to have amazing photos they will love forever!!

My Husband and I used 6:8 for our small private wedding ceremony, and again for family portraits. We were thrilled both times with the results. Value was exceptional. If you want some cheesy / posed photographs, 6:8 is not for you. If you are willing to spend a bit of money, they will capture moments of time , in such rawness and beauty ; moments you can only appreciate when looking back.
We had a vision for what we wanted with our family session, and they guys were flexible, and totally in to hearing our ideas.
Both Kevan and Duane we would recommend to absolutely anyone. They are "professionals" in every sense of the word.
