It was one of those days that rained pretty much everywhere except for where we wanted to be. In other words, this Moraine Lake engagement session was pretty darn perfect. Jessica and Justin were just adorable and up for anything, navigating rock shores and floating logs, climbing rocks and a bit of hiking. The way the sun hit them in this shot below is something that doesn’t happen often, the stars aligning in all the right ways. Magic! It’s what I love so much about photography, creating the best image I can with what I have but also being so thankful for the magical moments from the stuff I can’t control (cloud cover, temperature, weather etc) Moraine Lake is such an ideal place for an engagement session, elopement or wedding. I need to be shooting here more often, so do get in touch! I can’t wait to hear from you.

Karolyn and Joey live for the mountains and just generally the outdoors. It was only fitting to photograph their engagement session in the most beautiful spot we have, Moraine Lake. The water was rather low (thankfully it filled right up the next week) but it made for some cool shore walks and a bit of bravado as we borrowed a canoe for a few shots. (which we of course put right back) I loved how they would speak french to each other and sometimes even to me, though I don’t understand a word. It’s lovely and intimate and just makes me wish I could speak another language. We spent a long time along the banks of Moraine Lake but then ventured upwards to the sky for some spectacular overhead shots with the majestic mountains. It was a stunning day and I’m so happy to share it with you.

I was super excited to be back at Moraine Lake for this lovely sunset engagement session. Although it’s hard to choose between Lake Louise and Moraine, I do love all the nooks and crannies and ruggedness of Moraine Lake. I love that Anessa brought sunflowers to the session- Steven had bought them for her that day as they are her favourite flower. It was a spectacular night and I enjoyed playing with the changing light and watching the stunning sunset with this incredible couple. Cannot wait for their September wedding!

Whenever a couple requests a mountain engagement session I get really excited. I hadn’t shot at Moraine Lake in a long time and was able to combine Kelly and Jonny’s session with an elopement. It worked out perfectly! Kelly and Jonny are set to be married in Calgary in February so having their engagement session in the summer will provide a beautiful contrast to the snowy wonderland sure to be had in February.
