Documentary Style meets Beautiful Elopement Experiences in the Canadian Rockies.
BANFF · CANMORE · KANANASKIS · JASPER · BEYOND
Congratulations on choosing to elope.
You value experiences over everything, and your elopement is no exception.
Elopements are weddings focused on the 2 of you, perhaps some of your closest people you care about - and experiencing a day with no rules.
I'm Sara , a Calgary-based elopement photographer who's spent ten years in these mountains. I know the trails, the weather, and where the light will fall in beautiful places. My partner Randy joins me as the videographer when you book photo and film together.
Whether you want a sunrise on a summit, a paddle across a glacial lake, a helicopter to somewhere most people never reach, or just to stand somewhere quiet and say your vows -I'll meet you there. I move quietly. I guide. I pay attention.
If you've never loved how you look in photographs, that's exactly what I'm here for. The best moments tend to happen when you forget I'm around.
Not sure where to start? I've got you. Locations, permits, timelines, vendors , I'll help with all of it.
Your love. Your adventure. Your way.
“Sara and Randy are IT!”
This dynamic duo perfectly captures our moment and got our vibes down to a tee. Super easy to work with and super flexible with whatever w head in mind! Look no further if you need a photographer (or videographer) to capture your day. They go above and beyond and if we could do it again we would pick them in a HEARTBEAT.
Croy+Mikaela.
