2024 was an absolute ride here at Hillary Eve Photography.
If you follow along on Instagram, you may have caught the behind-the-scenes peek into our year—an emotional rollercoaster of laughter, tears, quiet moments, and moments of pure joy. As we reflect on the incredible couples, families, and stories we’ve had the privilege of capturing, we can’t help but feel overwhelmed with gratitude for the connections we’ve made.
It’s been a year full of those fleeting moments—those raw, honest glimpses into the heart of a celebration. The "tender moments," as we love to call them, where the world feels still, and all that’s left is love. You can hear the joy in the sound of laughter, see it in the quiet touch of a hand, or feel it in the energy of a shared glance. Every photo we’ve taken this year has been a testament to these simple, yet profound, connections.
In our recent Instagram reel (watch it here if you haven’t already!), we shared a glimpse into what this year has felt like. It was filled with emotion, growth, and the kind of moments that remind us why we do what we do. Each wedding, each session, has been a piece of a bigger puzzle, coming together to tell stories that are uniquely yours.
Whether it was the excitement of a couple’s first look, the joy of a wedding day that couldn’t come fast enough, or the quiet moments shared between parents and their little ones—we’ve had the honour of capturing it all.
Now, it’s time for you to help us celebrate the best of the best. Help us choose the best Okanagan wedding or session photo of the year.
After an unforgettable year of storytelling, we are excited to present our 2024 Photo of the Year contest.
We’ve nominated our favourite image from each of the weddings and sessions we did in 2024.
Here’s where it gets even more fun: You get to decide which photo deserves the title of “Photo of the Year.”
Over the next two weeks, we’ll be inviting you to vote for your favourite image. Every photo tells a unique story, but we’re curious—what one truly resonates with you? Which one makes you smile, laugh, or feel all the emotions? Your vote will help us crown the winning image, and the lucky winner will receive some incredible prizes:
First place: A free “The Storyteller” package (worth $650)
Second place: A free “The Mini” session (valued at $350)
Third place: 25% off the package of your choosing
Voting will be open for the next two weeks, so make sure to take your time, enjoy the stories, and cast your vote. To participate, simply head over to our Instagram page, and follow the prompts in the latest post to vote for your favourite image!
Whether you’re a couple we’ve worked with this year, a friend, or someone who simply loves to follow our work—thank you for being a part of our journey. We can’t wait to see which image wins your heart, and we look forward to capturing many more beautiful moments in the years ahead.
So, here’s to 2024—a year full of love, stories, and memories that will last a lifetime. Let’s make this moment one to remember.
Cheers, Hillary Eve Photography ✨
