welcome to the blog.

Finding the right elopement photographer for you can feel daunting when there are so many images online including socials and google searches or wedding resource blogs and you have no idea what you should like or who you should book. As someone who not only eloped themselves and have HORRIBLE photos as a result of […]

BANFF | JASPER | CANMORE | WATERTON | ABRAHAM LAKE | CROWSNEST PASS Why Elope in the Alberta Rocky Mountains? Hundreds of thousands of people come from across the world to visit Alberta yearly! Why? Well for its legendary Rocky Mountains with their uniquely turquoise and emerald green lakes,  interesting wildlife and so much more. […]

You might be saying to yourself “what is a modern elopement? I see so many people eloping and all I can think of is the stories from my childhood of people sneaking off and coming home with rings on their fingers; they ran off to the court house or another city and secretly got married!”

Well in the 2000s elopements have taken on a different image, slightly different meaning, and the “rules”…well THERE ARE NONE! In today’s day and age Elopements are not necessarily about secrets and they definitely are not about courthouses (I think where I live in Calgary you can’t even go to the courthouse to get married anymore).

Iceland Elopements – I WANT THEM ALL!! Iceland is a huge bucket list travel destination for me for photography and I am DYING to shoot elopements there!! They say you should show to the world what you want to shoot, so here I am blogging about this dream of mine. No I haven’t shot there yet, but I have shot in locations far away from my hometown and nothing changes but the scenery and the incredible people I get to meet! <3

Why do I love it, if I have never been…YET?!! 😉
Well it has a wild and exotic landscape similar in some ways to Canada and yet so different! In Iceland you will find mountains and waterfalls just like in the Canadian Rockies, my home, but there's so much more! I LOVE to travel and I want to experience this island with an incredible couple to tell their love story; ask my hubby I would just drive him nuts if I went without a couple to shoot!! LOL

So you are eloping and you have decided on an Adventure Elopement in the mountains. Most likely you are an outdoorsy person and you have an idea of what you need to bring when you are adventuring in the Rocky Mountains but I am here to remind you or maybe you just don’t know.
