Every detail was perfectly thought out and the Halifax Tower is always such a treat to shoot at, truly stunning and eloquent! Not to mention, just the most lovely humans and sweetest gathering of folk!

Couldn’t have asked for a better wedding to start off the 2026 Wedding season!

What a perfectly serene morning to capture these beautiful moments for Katy & Mike!

Having wedding photos with Canmore’s Three Sisters in the background was an important moment that was missed on their wedding day due to rain and poor visibility of the mountains.

Almost a year later, they dressed up in their wedding attire and shared this beautiful morning with just themselves and the sun lighting up the Three Sisters. We couldn’t have asked for a more perfect morning.

I love planning bridal sessions on a separate day from the wedding, even if it’s months apart. You can have the wedding and the epic photos. Planning a session where we can be flexible around weather and venture to those meaningful locations that may not be feasible on the wedding day.

It really was such an honour to capture these moments for Katy and Mike!!

What a winter of life in the mountains. We’re coming up on six months since I flew out here with my husband and our cat.
Moving an established business to a new province is both exciting and humbling. Looking back, it’s been an incredible season filled with so many meaningful shoots. Weddings, elopements, family portraits, Airbnb shoots, and so many surprise proposals, with a branding shoot, doc shoot, and women’s retreat still to come before the end of the month.

Coming up on this six month mark also means we’re heading back to Nova Scotia in just over two weeks. We’ll be there through May and June, catching up with family and friends while capturing weddings and portraits, working on a doc project, and shooting another season of Short Film Face Off.

We’ll be back in Canmore and Banff for July and August, ready for summer adventures and more beautiful work. Then back to Nova Scotia again from the end of August to mid September to celebrate and capture weddings for some close friends.

Uprooting our lives this much is certainly daunting, and growing a business across two places has its challenges. It’s been a lot of trusting the process. Overall, through this experience I’ve really felt I’m fostering a better work life balance. After years of being a workaholic and hitting burnout, I’m realizing we show up more energized and creative in our work when we consistently prioritize personal life experiences, family, and adventure.
