Natural Engagement Photos

High school sweethearts. Dustin and Katey met through mutual friends in their teens, and are now about to be married! Dustin took Katey on a helicopter ride through Horseshoe Canyon and proposed with an incredible Michael Hill engagement ring. Seriously… you have to see this ring. It’s amazing.

 I absolutely loved my session with these two and can’t wait for their wedding later this summer! Congrats again you guys!

East Village Engagement Photographer – Gareth & Pam

It was the last night of their vacation in Mexico, and Gareth was waiting for the perfect moment to propose to Pam.

They were playing on the beach with their daughter, Morgan, and as she started giving kisses to her mommy and daddy, Gareth presented Pam with a stunning Tiffany Engagement Ring.

We had a great evening together in Calgary’s East Village. Morgan is such a little personality – and had absolutely no trouble in front of the camera. Pam and Gareth are such genuine people and I am so looking forward to their winter wedding at the Calgary Zoo.

Crowsnest Pass Wedding Photographer – Mr & Mrs Green

Nathan and Melissa have truly been a blessing to me over the past few months. From our very first meeting, I was humbled by their deep, genuine love for one another. Nathan and Melissa met at church and started dating shortly before Melissa left the country for several months to pursue missions overseas. Their love blossomed over Skype, phone calls, and letters, into a love that I had the absolute honour of witnessing as they exchanged vows at Crowsnest Lake Bible Camp.

Nathan met the Lord at this camp during his teenage years, and as he put so eloquently in his vows to Melissa, it was only appropriate that they would commit their lives together to Him at that very same spot. After they exchanged vows and their first kiss as man and wife, Nathan and Melissa’s family and friends gathered around them to pray for God’s blessings in their lives. It was incredible to witness, and an even more amazing start to their marriage.

Nathan and Melissa – thank you so much for including me in this day. You are incredible people, and I am so excited to see what God does in and through you as you serve Him together.
