Give me mountains and newly fallen snow and a gorgeous couple and I am on cloud nine! I’m always thrilled to be back at the Pomeroy Kananaskis Mountain Lodge. I love that everyone stays on the lodge grounds, it makes for a perfectly effortless and care free event. And let’s talk about the new Nordic Spa that I’m dying to try out this winter. Joe and Johanna had an epic day for their elopement in the mountains and it was so nice for them to be surrounded by their smiling and happy families. If you’re looking for epic mountain views, look no further than the Pomeroy Mountain Lodge and certainly hire me too! ha! I love small weddings and elopements and would love to chat with you.

To say that this wedding weekend at the Delta Lodge Kananaskis was fun would be a giant understatement. Fun does not describe how incredible a game of broomball is with all your friends and family, in the dark, in the mountains with the snow pack acting as a beer cooler. Fun also does not describe the luck we encountered in Kananaskis by being practically the only mountain location that received any snow. Let me first say that if you need a great game that is easy to play for all ages, Broomball is the ticket. I loved watching everyone not only learn to play, but truly engage in the competition. The setting was incredible as well, the Delta really provides an ‘all-inclusive’ atmosphere that enhances the intimacy of the day and weekend. Back to the luck aspect, only two days prior, the grounds in Kananaskis were bare and brown just like the rest of the Rockies and Southern Alberta. But to our absolute delight, a crazy band of weather dumped about a foot of fresh powder, dusting the ground into a magical winter wonderland. Blair, my amazing second shooter, and I couldn’t contain our excitement and we were indeed happy that Karolina and Tyler and their wonderful bridal party indulged in our glee and persevered through some chilly temperatures. To say that this wedding was spectacular, in so many ways, would be the absolute, 100% truth. Go on and enjoy this wintery goodness!

I hadn’t photographed a wedding at the Delta Lodge in Kananaskis before although I was quite familiar with the beautiful hotel from staying there and exploring the area. So colour me excited when Charlene and Riley booked me for their August wedding! I get to shoot so much in Canmore and Banff, it was a huge treat to play in a different mountain range. We found some great spots for creatives and were blessed with an absolutely gorgeous day. I really liked the varying shades of green for the bridesmaids as well as the different dresses. It totally works! And I’ll never forget Riley’s desire for a “tough” photograph. I’m still giggling away to myself. The reception was nestled amongst the trees in a beautiful white tent and it was there that they partied the night away.
