Preserving your story, naturally
Kelowna Wedding Photographer & Filmmaker
Kelowna & the Okanagan, BC
Warm, unscripted coverage for Okanagan couples who want their day to feel like them — not like a shot list.
Now booking 2026 & 2027 · a limited number of weddings each year
Maclean Photo + Video is a Kelowna, BC wedding photography and videography studio. I'm Scott Maclean, and with ten years behind the camera I document weddings across the Okanagan (Kelowna, West Kelowna, Penticton and Vernon) in a warm, documentary style on digital and 35mm film. Collections start at $2,200 plus GST, with photo and video together from $3,800.
Documentary, not directed
Documentary wedding photography means photographing your day as it actually happens rather than staging it. Portraits still happen — 20 to 30 minutes of calm, simple direction — then you go back to your own wedding.
Photo and film, one team
Booking both together means one point of contact, one shared timeline, and two people who have worked the same day a hundred times. No two vendors quietly competing for the same three minutes of golden hour.
Delivered three ways
I shoot digital for reliability and 35mm film for texture. Every final image arrives in colour, black and white, and film emulation — a gallery of 500 photos means 500 in each. Sneak peeks land within 72 hours.
Hi, I'm Scott
An analog soul behind the camera
I'm a Kelowna wedding photographer and videographer, a music lover, and a bit of a romantic about the little in-between moments. My style is warm, natural, and documentary. I chase real emotion and give calm, simple direction, so your portraits still feel like the two of you.
From intimate mountain elopements to big lakeside celebrations across the Okanagan, my job is to make you feel comfortable and looked after, from our first hello to the day your gallery lands in your inbox. I work throughout the valley, including Penticton and Vernon.

Rated 5.0 from 41 reviews on Google
"Not only is Scott an incredibly talented photographer, but he also has an ability to connect with his clients. He made us feel comfortable and turned the entire experience into something truly fun. I honestly can't recommend him enough." Lizette & Stuart
"Scott was incredible at pivoting when last minute changes came up, including a bit of unexpected rain that shuffled our timeline… Even though he was our only photographer, it truly felt like there were multiple photographers throughout the day." Nina
"Scott was the perfect fit to shoot our micro-wedding. Me and my wife are both fans of vintage-style photos and he definitely gave us those… He shoots the perfect moments, which tells more than any video could." Mark

Good to Know
Common questions
Do you shoot the photos and the film yourself?
I am at every wedding I book. On photography-only or film-only collections I work solo; when you book Photo + Video I move to video and bring a trusted second shooter for stills, so neither side of the day is compromised — nobody is putting the stills camera down to grab a shot of the speeches, and there is only one timeline and one point of contact for both.
How soon do we see our photos?
Sneak peeks arrive within 72 hours of the wedding, so you have something to share while the day is still fresh. The full gallery follows in 3 to 4 weeks, delivered privately online with every image in three finishes — colour, black and white, and film emulation — and a $50 to $100 print credit on the half and full day collections.
Do you travel outside Kelowna?
Yes. I am based in Kelowna and shoot across the whole Okanagan Valley — Penticton, Vernon, West Kelowna, Lake Country — as well as Vancouver, Victoria and destination weddings further afield. Vineyards, lakeshores, mountaintops and backyards all get the same coverage.
What happens if it rains?
We shoot anyway. Okanagan weather turns fast, so I plan covered and indoor options with you ahead of time and stay flexible on the day — shuffling portraits to a break in the cloud is normal, not a crisis. Rain light is soft and forgiving, and some of my favourite frames have come out of it.
What is included in every collection?
Every wedding collection includes continuous coverage with no hourly gaps, a private online gallery, and sneak peeks within 72 hours. Photography collections add hand-edited images in all three finishes plus real 35mm film; the half and full day collections also include a complimentary engagement session.
Where I Shoot
Across the Okanagan and beyond
Most of the weddings I photograph happen within an hour of Kelowna. The venues that come up most often here are Summerhill Pyramid Winery, CedarCreek Estate Winery, Sanctuary Gardens, Manteo Resort and Hotel Eldorado — along with Knox Mountain and the Okanagan Lake beaches for couples who want something less formal.
South towards Penticton that means the Naramata Bench wineries, Poplar Grove Winery, God’s Mountain Estate, Linden Gardens, Skaha Lake and Munson Mountain. North towards Vernon it is Sparkling Hill Resort, Predator Ridge, The Rise, Kalamalka Lake, Ellison Provincial Park and Silver Star.
Getting married somewhere not on these lists? Anywhere I have not shot before gets a scout beforehand.
