Thanks for the epic memories, Tara!

We honestly couldn’t be happier with Tara! Our wedding photos are absolutely gorgeous, and she captured the day so beautifully. The photos are full of personality, playful movement, and natural moments, exactly what we loved about the sample galleries she’d shown us. We are so incredibly happy with every single one!

We got married at the top of Kicking Horse Mountain and experienced just about every kind of weather imaginable on the day, but Tara handled it all brilliantly. She was so lovely and easy to work with, and made the whole experience feel effortless.

One moment we’re particularly grateful for was when a lightning risk threw our timeline off schedule. Tara came to find us and encouraged us to make the most of the unexpected downtime by spending it with our guests. We’re so glad she did! It was exactly the right advice, and a perfect example of how she goes above and beyond just taking beautiful photos.

She was also absolutely fantastic at organising the family photos. She got everyone looking amazing, made the whole process incredibly efficient, and somehow kept it all relaxed and enjoyable. And when Tara says she helps with wedding timeline planning, she really means it!

Tara is not only an incredibly talented photographer, but also just a genuinely lovely person to have around on your wedding day. We couldn’t recommend her more highly!

Hire this photographer!

Working with Tara was genuinely my favourite part of our wedding!! She was SO organized from the very beginning that we knew we were in expert hands. She was so helpful and supportive through the whole process, but what I loved most was that she actually wanted to know what WE wanted and made sure we got it every step of the way.

And when I tell you this girl was ON FIRE on the wedding day... I had SO many guests coming up to me saying “omg your photographer was WORKIN” because this girl was RUNNING around making sure she got every single shot. She wrangled everyone, took charge when she needed to, and made sure we got all the photos we wanted without us having to stress about a single thing.

And the photos??? When I tell you I have some of the most incredible photos I have EVER seen, and they're OURS??? Like excuse me??? How am I supposed to pick a favourite when every single one is THAT GOOD. She captured the emotion of the day so well. Its completely us which is something I will forever be so grateful for.

Tara is exactly what you're looking for in a wedding photographer. And even though I don't know you, I promise you it's her. Book her. Trust me. You will not regret it!!! ❤️

Tara is wonderful!

We couldn’t have asked for a better wedding photographer! From the very beginning, Tara was incredibly kind, welcoming, and so much fun to work with. She made us feel completely comfortable in front of the camera and brought such a fun, relaxed energy to our wedding day.

Tara captured so many meaningful moments that we didn’t even realize were happening, and she was always one step ahead, making sure nothing was missed. She was organized, professional, and incredibly thoughtful throughout the entire day.

Our photos are absolutely beautiful, and we will cherish them forever. We are so grateful that she was there to capture such an important day for us. We would wholeheartedly recommend her to anyone looking for a photographer who is talented, kind, fun, and truly invested in making your day special!

Tara is THE best wedding photographer!!

We cannot recommend Tara enough! We weren’t sure what to expect from a wedding photographer, and Tara went above and beyond from every stage of our wedding. We had multiple meetings prior to, where she asked thoughtful questions to really understand us as a couple and what the vision was for our big day. We weren’t even sure what we wanted until she helped us unravel our thoughts. She was organized and prompt, and despite having a delay in our timeline on the day of with a makeup situation, she got us back on track while the day still felt relaxed. As two brides, we weren’t sure how to pose for photos so that they felt natural, and Tara had prompts that captured the moments perfectly. She knew when we had important moments to capture, and when to let us relax and take everything in. We had Tara for the full day of our wedding, and we were so thankful we did. She even stayed a bit later to get a few after darks we asked for. Within only a few days of our wedding we already had our sneak peeks, and they were better than we could have imagined. We are already taking about returning to Fernie for vow renewal or anniversary photos, thank you Tara!!

Tara is amazing!!

Tara was incredible to work with! We first connected with her over FaceTime and we immediately clicked! She is curious, friendly, funny and so personable!! From day 1 she helped us plan so many details about our wedding, it was truly like having a wedding planner and photographer all in one! She first did our engagement photos in Canmore, AB and then a few months later our wedding in Golden, BC. The photos from our engagement session and wedding were amazing!! She gave us more photos than we ever thought we'd receive and they are perfect! Worth every penny! She made us feel comfortable in front of the camera and respected everything we wanted to do. She has such an eye for detail and the perfect shot! The saddest part about our wedding being over is that we don't get to connect with Tara all the time! I'd recommend Tara to anyone in heartbeat! We truly can't thank her enough for making our wedding so perfect!!

Tara is the most talented photographer in the world, and will become your best friend!

Tara Hill took photos of my and my husband's wedding, and we cannot be happier with her and our photos. She is incredibly professional, she makes you feel so comfortable even in the middle of chaos (whether you're an introvert or an extrovert!), and she is SO much fun. Tara was so integral to our wedding, we really cannot imagine having done it without her there. Our sneak peeks are absolutely stunning, and she is so accommodating of people with different abilities, taking into account everyone's comfort levels. If you have a wedding coming up, an adventure elopement, or really anything else, Tara is your girl. She really is one of the coolest, most accepting, and talented people in the world. Thank you, Tara

Absolutely hire Tara for your wedding

Not only is Tara an unbelievably talented photographer, which you can see by browsing her galleries, but she is on top of when it comes to communication, scheduling, is an easy person to get along with, and is genuinely kind. She went above and beyond what we were anticipating and couldn’t recommend her highly enough! She took the time to get to know me and my wife, asking all the right questions and then some. All this helped us foster a great working relationship and meant that she was able to flawlessly execute come the big day, capturing all the shots – staged and candid – that we had hoped for.

Absolutely Incredible

Tara invested so much care into our photos, going above and beyond in every way. Her dedication to her craft is evident in every shot. What sets Tara apart is her keen sense of when to step in and provide direction - she knows precisely when to gently guide and offer suggestions (i.e. hand placements, posture checks, creative poses, etc.), ensuring that every shot was perfect and unique. Tara's creative vision and her ability to guide us when needed were invaluable on our wedding day.

Tara's support and assistance during the wedding planning process was also incredibly helpful and on point. Her extensive knowledge and expertise of Fernie wedding venues gave us insights that were instrumental in planning our wedding day. Her helpfulness and dedication made the entire process more enjoyable, and we are immensely grateful for her support in planning our wedding.

In short, we cannot recommend Tara Hill enough to anyone in search of a wedding photographer. She is not only immensely talented but also enthusiastic, passionate and an absolute joy to be around. Thank you so much Tara!

Incredible, in every way!

Choosing Tara as our photographer was the best decision that we made for our Fernie Wedding!

Tara’s photos are timeless. She perfectly captured so many special moments and emotions from our wedding day. My husband and I are still in awe of how Tara seemed to be in so many different places at once. Tara took our Engagement photos as well, which turned out incredibly. For both our Engagement Photos and on the Wedding Day, she put so much care into our photos and worked so hard to make our vision come true!

Equally as important as her talent, is Tara’s personality. Tara’s passion, enthusiasm and positivity are infectious, and she is an absolute joy to be around – especially on your wedding day! She made us both feel so confident & comfortable in front of the camera.

Tara was incredibly helpful throughout the wedding planning process. She went above and beyond to share her knowledge and expertise with us. Tara was instrumental in finalizing our day-of timeline and had great advice that made the day seamless and stress-free.

I could not recommend Tara enough to anyone looking for a Wedding Photographer, she is an absolute gem in every possible way!
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.
