FROM THE MOMENT WE MET, SHE MADE US FEEL LIKE THE MOST BEAUTIFUL AND SPECIAL COUPLE ON EARTH. HER GENUINE WARMTH AND ENTHUSIASM WERE PRESENT THROUGHOUT THE ENTIRE PROCESS. WE DECIDED TO HAVE OUR CEREMONY AND PHOTOS TAKEN AT PEYTO LAKE AND BOW LAKE AS WE GOT ENGAGED THERE, AND NAOMI TRULY CAPTURED THE ESSENCE OF OUR LOVE!
I used Naomi for both my engagement and wedding photos and my experience was absolutely perfect! Naomi instantly felt like a friend, and she made the experience of being photographed (something I had never done before) seem extremely natural and fun. She is incredibly knowledgeable about the industry, and she has a great list of places to take photos and is very knowledgeable about the Canmore/Banff area. I had multiple family members come up to me afterwards praising her for her friendliness, and professionalism. I could not recommend Naomi enough, she was in integral part of making my wedding day perfect.
For local weddings & elopements, a 35% non-refundable retainer and signed contract makes us official. For regular sessions and destination bookings, a 50% retainer is required.
All Alberta wedding packages include travel fees within a 60km radius of Calgary and the whole of Banff National Park. For out of country bookings, travel fees will vary per location but are included in the package with no hidden fees.
You won't have to ask twice! I spend all my free time hiking and mountaineering throughout the Rockies, and love sharing my favourite summits with my couples. I also have a background and huge passion for landscape photography on the other side of my work, so I am constantly location scouting and can assist with narrowing down the best locations for your vision.
I shoot on two high-resolution camera bodies- the Sony A7RV and the Sony A7IV (a main and a backup). Both cameras have dual card slots which allow your images to be backed up to two memory cards at one time. My lenses include the 35mm, 50mm and 85mm GM primes, as well as a 24-70mm and various wide angles lenses. I shoot on a variety of film cameras, and use an external flash where necessary for reception photos.
Though I've had a camera in my hand since my early teen years, I have been shooting professionally (both weddings and landscape/commercial) for 10 years throughout a variety of locations, and have developed solid experience in both fields. Paired with my local experience here in Rockies, I am well equipped in helping my couples plan their elopement or wedding day.
Yes! I am licensed in all the local National Parks and carry the required liability insurance. I also carry insurance for international locations outside of Canada. All licensing and permits are included in my packages.
