Kavan Lake has been photographing weddings, portraits, and families for the past ten years, and is always in reach of a camera at any moment. He jokes that you can drop him anywhere in the world with a camera, and he will come out with a new batch of lifetime friends.
Kavan loves to add that element of fashion to his wedding images, and has been studying the works of Peter Lindbergh, Annie Leibovitz, and Rodney Smith for years to develop his style. His favorite images are the ones that look like the bride and groom and their wedding party stepped off the cover of a magazine, but still maintain that classical, timeless feel.
In his wedding work, Kavan uses digital cameras and supplements the entire story with medium format, and 35mm film. He does this because he, and many of his clients, really like the timeless look of film, and want to add some of it to their overall wedding as an artistic option.
In his own words: “I absolutely love photography. If I can do this up until the day I die, you can rest assured that I died a happy man. The joy I get from making beautiful wedding images for people, and capturing their stories cannot be described in a few words.
The energy I get from creating wedding stories is just amazing…pure satisfaction.”
