Galloping Horses Make for a Gorgeous Wedding Photo

Here’s a gorgeous wedding photo captured recently by Vancouver-based husband and wife wedding photography duo Jelger and Tanja. They managed to capture the bride and groom, Andrea and Eoin, with horses galloping by and sun beams peeking through the clouds.

“The bride and groom, who are both from Ireland, worked and lived on a ranch in Ashcroft BC (Sundance Guest Ranch), Canada for a while,” the photographers tell PetaPixel. “They loved the place so much that they decided to get married there.”

“They both shared a really special bond with both the ranch as well as their favorite horses. Andrea even rode down the aisle on her horse!”

Every evening, the horses of the ranch get released into the fields and all run out together. So, the couple decided to stand in the middle of the action to have a portrait taken as it happened. The photographers and videographer had their backs to the oncoming horses.

“It was quite crazy to grab it with horses running by,” the photographers say. To see how crazy it is — the ground is rumbling beneath you — check out the same scene in this beautiful wedding film by Michael of Story of Eve:
