Hello, and welcome to Wyman Gallery's photography blog. This is our first post so I'd like to spend a few minutes telling you who we are and what we do.

Wyman Gallery is a photography company located in Kelowna, BC Canada. Although we are available for all types of photography at the present time we specialize in wedding/bridal photography, model porfolio's, real estate photography, and portraiture.

My name is Craig Thompson. I'm a member of Professional Photographers of Canada, Professional Photographers Association of British Columbia, and the National Association of Photoshop Professionals.

My daughter Candice also is part of the company and works with me on all wedding photography assignments. She also specializes in business portraits for our corporate clients. In addition to the photography side of the business Candice produces our "Memories DVD's" for wedding clients.


As a team we are excited about our new blog and the increased interaction with our photography clients, friends and family.

One of the most challenging questions a bridal couple faces is how to choose a wedding photographer. It is such an important decision! Here is a link to an article I recently posted on our website:

The article is loaded with advice for the bridal couple on how to interview prospective wedding photographers.

It's not often that we're photographing a wedding and worrying about being hit by lightning! Last summer, at Cedar Creek Winery in Kelowna we were photographing Sean and Maura's wedding when a huge storm quickly rolled down the valley. Here's an image of the bride and groom with a lightning bolt striking the hillside behind them. After this image we quickly scrambled for cover as the intense storm rolled over the winery.



I hope you enjoyed our first blog post and that you've learned a little bit more about myself and Candice.

Each post will feature a few new images, perhaps some helpful information, and an invitation to submit your questions and comments to our blog. Our intention is to give you a better understanding of who we are, our style of photography, and a chance to get to know us better.

We'll leave you with a recent image from a model portfolio session. We're always looking for new models who need a new or updated portfolio. Give us a call or email to discuss our model portfolio services.



Hey everybody that's it for me today. Have a great week and we'll talk to you soon - Craig
