10/10 experience with Shirleen and Troy
Marriage commissioner response to the work of Burnett photography
I just wanted to drop a note and give a little kudos to your photography. I have performed 100's of weddings and seen the work of almost as many photographers...Your photos take the cake. You are outstanding in your field...LOL Enough of the clichés. You made it easy for me to perform the ceremony totally connected to the couple without being distracted. Your photography of Tasha and Adam has captured their all of their emotions on their wedding day - the joy, the love, their feelings in the moment. Your use of light, composition and colour blows me away! I feel the magic of that day, all over again! Thank you!! Twyla Jacobson, Alberta Authorized Marriage Commissioner
It was an amazing to have a photoshoot with Burnett Photography!
My fiancé, friends and family really loved the pictures. The pictures were beautiful and very well done with editing the photos.
They are really helpful during the photoshoot and before the photoshoot. You will get some advice to do some poses, so you really get the right pose and posture. Shirleen is very responsive with the email to do the communication, also I can reach them through their phone number.
They are really impressed me with all the pictures and I think they meet my expectations. Overall, it was worth it to get a photoshoot with Burnett Photography. I would recommend them if you would like to have a wedding photography, proposals, and other events. Lastly, they really taking care of us during the photoshoot in the winter, they keep us warm and help us a lot throughout the whole process of my proposals.
Absolutely worth it and recommended!

Appreciating the beauty of life, being happy, relaxed, a bit irreverent and endlessly optimistic, is a big part of who I am and expressing that in my work fuels me as a photographer.
Being a photographer is not a "job" to me. It's my passion.
Photography fascinates me in every way. I have a totally nerdy side that loves all the technical details: the cameras, lighting equipment, software and computer programs. I eat it up! It's the tools of my poetry.
I specialize in creating dramatic portraits in beautiful natural environments. I adore the thrill of lighting, posing and coaching just about anyone to feel glamorous and sexy on their wedding day.
If I were the wealthiest woman in the world, I would still be a wedding photographer. I love it that much.
I'm really proud of the team Burnett Photography has become. We have so much fun with our couples, I think you would be crazy not to hire us!
Isis is named after an Egyptian Goddess. Need I say more?
She is fluent in French, English and currently working on Spanish. A lover of chickens, Japanese anime, scuba diving and food.
Isis is a hard-core critic of my photography and pushes me to improve my craft in ways only a smart-assed teenage daughter can. You can be sure that Isis is working for your best interests as she looks over my shoulder while I edit and makes biting comments like "I've seen better" or "Really, mom?" Impressing her is harder than winning an award with some of the best international competitions in the world. I know I've arrived when she smiles and give me an enthusiastic thumbs up.
With such high standards, I know we can expect amazing things from this gal in the future. Until then, she carries my gear and holds lights!
I'm a native Albertan from the Edmonton area who graduated from NAIT (Northern Alberta Institute of Technology) in 2017. I joined Burnett Photography after doing a 2-week internship with Troy and Shirleen. I was drawn to the company because of their unique husband and wife dynamic.
Moving to the mountains was a dream come true for me. The wild beauty and purity of the natural landscape literally gives me goosebumps. I love to share that feeling with our couples.
I specialize in nighttime photography and creative portraiture and enjoy working with lights in this majestic mountain environment.
