Thank you for reaching out to me!
Since you have inquired it means you have something worth celebrating and like my style of photography. It means so much to me that have you connected with my work and would consider me to document your love story!
There are so many incredible photographers out there and choosing one is as much about their portfolio as it is about their personality. My goal with photography is to capture the two of you for who you really are and make you feel confident and comfortable. I am not striving for the perfect photo, I love when the wind blows your hair a little bit out of place. I am focused on documenting your unique love story and what has brought you here!
The Booking Process
Just in case you haven’t booked a lot of professional photographers before this is a little breakdown of how it all works.
STEP 1:
After looking through this guide we can organize a short 15 minute facetime to get to know one another! This is a casual chat where you can ask me any questions you might have.
After getting to know one another it is time to make your date official! I will send you a contract to sign and a 50% non refundable deposit to secure your date. The non refundable part is pertaining to if you decide to cancel your session all together. But, if for whatever reason you need to change the date of your session we will just move that deposit to a new date that works for all of us.
STEP 2:
After the contract and invoice are completed the date will be secured and we can work together to create your dream engagement session! I will be there to answer any and all of your questions and help you throughout the planning process. This is also a great time to create a pinterest or mood board so I can see exactly what kind of vibe you are dreaming of!
STEP 3:
Time for the big day! I will be there every step of the way capturing the big and small moments and everything in between.
72 hours after your engagement session I will send along 5-10 sneak peek photos. You can share these with anyone and everyone!
STEP 4:
4 weeks after your big day I will send along your high resolution gallery. I always recommend sitting down to look through the gallery the first time together on a computer (or really anything bigger then an iphone). You can even grab a glass of wine or a cup of tea and take time reminiscing on your wedding day. The gallery has a print store connected to it so you can order all of your high quality prints and albums from there. To me, photographs are not complete until they are printed! There is something so special about having a printed copy of your favourite photos to bring you back to memories of your day.

Backcountry Engagement Session
If you are an adventurous couple that love to venture out into the backcountry together, whether hiking, camping, walking your dog into the alpine or ski touring I would love to join you! We can head out into the mountains together and get some incredible photos of the two of you doing what you love. It is also an incredible way for us to get to know one another before your big day! If you are not planning on eloping this is a really wonderful way to get those amazing phots you want in the mountains. These sessions are priced per day which includes all of the time to get into the location we choose.
$3000/ day
Helicopter Engagement Session
This is the perfect option to get out into the alpine together! We can fly up either to an alpine lake or mountain top and get some incredible photos. It is also the perfect way to get the whole location to ourselves. It is also an amazing experience for the two of you to fly in a helicopter and go on a tour through the valley. You can also get 10% off with Blackcomb Helicopters when you book with me!
$800 - 1 Hour | $1600 - 2 Hours

Film Photography
$400/ROLL OF FILM
Having a mixture of film and digital is such a fun way to bring a timeless twist into your photos.
These often end up becoming my clients (and my) favourite photos from their day. There's something so special about film that's hard to explain, almost like comparing listening to a song in your headphones vs hearing it come out of an old jukebox.
Rush Gallery Turnaround
$1000
My editing turnaround time is 4 weeks, but if you'd like all your photos back the week of your proposal this is a great option. This is a great way to share all of your images with your friends and family and make them feel like they were there with you. Receive your entire gallery back within 7 calendar days of your proposal date!
FAQ
WHAT IS YOUR TURNAROUND TIME?
Within 2-3 days after the event you will receive web resolution sneak peek images to share online with friends and family. Your full online gallery will be delivered within 4 weeks of the event date.
HOW MANY IMAGES DO YOU INCLUDE?
The number of images I deliver varies but I will always include plenty of everything I capture. I deliver a minimum of 50 images an hour but I focus on quality of images rather than a specific amount. It is an honour to capture such a significant milestone in your lives and I put a lot of energy into making sure you can relive the memories fully!
DO YOU GIVE UNEDITED IMAGES?
No, editing is half the magic that goes into creating your photographs!
HOW DO PAYMENT SCHEDULES WORK?
A 50% non-refundable, non-transferable reservation retainer is due at the time of booking. The full balance is due 30 days prior to the ceremony date.
WHAT HAPPENS IN BAD WEATHER?
There is beauty in every weather. Clouds act as a diffuser to create soft, flattering lighting, rain covers the greenery with a glistening sheen, snow transforms the landscape into a winter wonderland and sun provides amazing light to play with.
WHAT DO WE WEAR?
Dress for the weather and check the conditions because they are always changing. Be over prepared and bring more than you need, you can always leave an extra layer with me. Sensible shoes are the number one item to remember! You don’t want to limit yourself to where you can go or your level of comfort because of your choice of footwear.
HOW DO WE FEEL LESS AWKWARD ABOUT HAVING OUR PHOTOGRAPH TAKEN?
My main objective is for you to enjoy your day and feel comfortable! I take the time to get to know you, your sense of humour and favourite things about each other. I will do my best to ignite your confidence until you feel totally relaxed in front of the camera. I will give you easy instructions, guiding you to interact together in ways that allow me to capture candid moments in a flattering style.
