    Incredible experience

    We had a location in mind for our elopement, and as soon as we were there - Kim knew all the right places to go. She made us feel very comfortable in front of the camera, which shows in the beautiful photos she took.

    Professional

    I hired Kim for my engagement shoots in Lake Louise and I could not have asked for a better photographer. The pictures came out better than I expected. Also she sent the pictures much earlier than I had expected. I highly recommend her!

    Kim was amazing for our freezing cold wedding day!

    We booked Kim for our December wedding. She was great. She had lots of suggestions on photo/ceremony locations and time scheduling. We were supposed to have an outdoor wedding, but it ended up being -30, so switched to an indoor ceremony last minute. We still got outdoor couple photos in the blistering cold, which turned out amazing. Kim drove us around to all the spots and we warmed up in her vehicle in between locations. She was so knowledgeable and told us where to stand, where to put our hands, faces etc. We had a small intimate wedding and booked 5 hours of photography which covered some getting ready photos, the ceremony, couple/family photos and some cocktail/dinner photos. I would definitely recommend Kim!

    Kim is Amazing!!!

    My husband and I decided to elope at Emerald Lake Lodge without ever seeing the location. I contacted Kim to see if she was available, and she was! The photos she had on her site were amazing, and her reviews were outstanding. We booked a three hour session for December 16, 2022. Kim not only showed up on time, but ready to go and well prepared for the weather (-9C/16F and snowing all day). She was very professional and knew exactly what she was doing, which made our day that much more amazing! She was able to capture all the photos we were looking for and went with the flow when we wanted to add different locations. She also knew exactly how to bustle my dress which came in handy! Kim sent us the previews that night, and the final photos by mid-February, as promised. We were able to download all of our photos easily from the site and any photos we wanted in a higher resolution for larger prints Kim was able to send to us. Kim also put together our wedding album, which she did an amazing job and was flexible with all the changes we wanted to make. I cannot thank her enough for the absolutely stunning work she did for our elopement! Kim is very talented and delivers work as promised. I highly suggest booking Kim, you will not regret it!!!

    A & M wedding @ Banff

    We are more than happy to have Kim as our wedding photographer. Every capture was brilliant and makes us rekindle the moment perfectly. Not only that, she was at the same to so professional and courteous and caring, always checks on us during the event. She is well ahead of her estimated date of release of all the pictures. She made our wedding even more magical. Thank you so much Kim.

    Over the moon happy with our photographer

    There are not enough words to describe how amazing Kim as been as our photographer. Our engagement season was our first experience with Kim, and I have to say that not everyone could keep us laughing and having fun wearing dress clothes in minus 30. However, the picture ended up looking incredible and we can certainly say the same thing about the sneak peaks we have gotten from our wedding day. For the wedding day we ended up with perfect weather, and Kim’s Knowledge of the Canmore area cam in handy with finding places that were scenic yet quite in the height of larch season. She was extremely attentive throughout the day, keeping us on time, and looking for those special moments when you think no one is watching. If you are looking for personable, professional photographer who is exceptional at location scouting, and knows how to make you look your best without even trying, I highly recommend Kim. Her photography is light without being over exposed, and captures the true colours and essence of the scenery around you.

    Super Impressed!

    Kim was absolutely amazing to work with!
    Since we are not from the area we let Kim choose all the locations and she definitely did not disappoint!!
    She is super friendly and organized, we could have not picked anyone better to capture our wedding day. The pictures are absolutely stunning!

    Lake Louise Wedding

    Kim photographed our wedding at Lake Louise on August 28th. When we started looking for photographers, it only took one meeting with Kim to know she was the photographer for us. Kim was extremely responsive to all of our emails and calls, and even helped provide insight for the wedding day. Kim was friendly, professional, and flexible. If we could give Kim more than five stars we would do so without hesitation. Her photographs were better than we could have hoped for and I cannot imagine using any other photographer. We highly recommend Kim for your wedding. She will exceed all of your expectations.
