Hello, I am a Banff, Alberta-based wedding and elopement photographer. My photography journey began when I fell in love with the mountains of Canmore, and then the unending thrill of visiting and exploring new places with my parter. The sheer beauty of nature, traveling and the excitement of new experiences inspired me to capture those moments in a frame. Being in the mountains with the peaceful silence and brilliant landscapes, made me fall in love with the art of photography. Every click of my camera allowed me to capture not just a picture, but a story with nature and people.
&nbsp;
I adore traveling and have extensive experience as a destination wedding photographer, shooting my clients and exploring all over the world - from Iceland to Italy, Ireland, California, Washington and beyond. I love the growth and excitement that comes with seeing new places, experiencing different cultures, and meeting new people. Capturing my clients weddings and adventure elopements in frames that will last forver, while having the ability to freeze time is pretty incredible to me. It's one of the few art forms left that is timeless and authentic to that moment.

I believe in the power of simplicity. My approach towards photography is quite straightforward and down-to-earth, without any unnecessary fluff. I aim to capture people as they are, in their most natural and authentic state, while helping them to relax and directing them, so they have the freedom to feel comfortable in front of my camera.
&nbsp;
It's not just about taking a photograph, it's about capturing a moment, a feeling, an emotion. It's about telling a story that will be remembered for years to come. My clients and people close to me describe me as kind and caring, a welcome, helpful, organized presence on a busy day. A calm the storm. I hope that through my work, I can inspire people to see the beauty in everyday moments and natural landscapes and appreciate the world around them. So come join me on this journey as we explore the world through my lens.

Family is another thing that is very close to my heart. Spending time with my loved ones, sharing laughs, creating memories - these are the things that truly matter. Being a locally based Canmore wedding photographer and having my children being born in Canmore, I have a true connection to the Canadian Rockies. I have hiked it and explored it with my family for almost 2 decades as a local adventurer and mother. I am lucky to have children of whom I am so proud and my partner Gabriel, who is also an incredible artist and wedding photographer of 20 years - he is my best friend, soulmate, holds the key to my heart and all the laughs.

Get to Know Me

Jenna is a phenomenal photographer. Her pictures truly speak to her abilities but beyond that she is so easy to work with! Our day was perfect and she captured it in some truly stunning shots! We were even graced with some wonderful storm clouds in the background and Jenna captured these in such a moody but romantic way (not sure if she has the ability to control the weather or not but it sure seemed perfect!). All jokes aside - she is incredible and you will not regret choosing her for your special day!

Morganne Wall

All the money in the world couldn't have gotten us a better photographer for our wedding day. Jenna was organized, kind, and incredibly grounding; always reminding us to relax and enjoy the day. Our wedding photos are beyond beautiful. Jenna captured our best angles, our most heartfelt moments, and when I scroll through our wedding pictures I get to vividly relive our day. Thank you Jenna for capturing photos to last us a lifetime!  I could not be happier with her services, and I would strongly recommend her to anyone looking for photography services.

Samantha Creasey

Jenna was such a superstar on our special day. I honestly can't imagine the day without her. Photography has always been very special to me so I wanted someone I could trust. She truly was that and helped us with so many details leading up to the day. Jenna was great at checking in on how we were feeling and what we wanted. We got so many photos that took my breath away. She was able to capture all of the moments so naturally, without feeling staged. She captured our feelings so well and the little moments that I forgot happened.

Every so often, I get to be part of something truly magical. This time, it was a helicopter wedding in the Canadian Rockies of Alberta. As a Canmore wedding photographer based in the heart of the Canadian Rockies, I've captured love stories against some truly breathtaking backdrops. But even by my standards, this wedding was something special! I was lucky enough to be a second shooter on this day.
&nbsp;
As we lifted off, the excitement was palpable. The bride, resplendent in her wedding gown, and the groom, looking polished in his suit, clung to each other as we soared over the valleys and the pristine alpine lakes. As a former director for a helicopter company, I felt right at home in the air, my camera at the ready to capture every moment.
&nbsp;
We landed on a remote mountain peak where the ceremony would take place. The skies were a brilliant blue, and the panoramic views of the surrounding peaks were nothing short of awe-inspiring. The couple exchanged their vows in this stunning setting, their words echoing off the mountains.
&nbsp;
As they soldified their vows as husband and wife, something incredible happened. A rainbow, vibrant and full, arched across the sky, framing the couple in a moment of pure serendipity. It was as if nature itself was celebrating their union.
&nbsp;

A Canmore Helicopter Wedding Photographer: A Story of Love, Adventure, and a Rainbow

I've always found a particular joy in capturing the raw emotion and love between two people in love. It's like freeze-framing a moment of pure bliss and preserving it for a lifetime. And when a captivating location like shooting a destination wedding in Iceland's stunning landscapes comes into play, it's as if the universe conspires to create a symphony of visuals that leaves me spellbound. That was the case when I had the opportunity to capture Magenta and Alex's wedding in Iceland, a love story that unfolded amidst the beaches, waterfalls, and hills of this breathtaking Nordic island.
&nbsp;
From the moment I met Magenta and Alex, I knew their wedding was going to be a unique adventure. Their love story had an air of magic, and their venue was a reflection of their adventurous spirits. The wedding was set against the backdrop of a beach with a panoramic view of Iceland's rolling hills, and a majestic waterfall that was nothing short of a dream.
&nbsp;
The ceremony was intimate, with the couple eloping. It was a moment filled with raw emotion, love, and passion, all against the backdrop of the crashing waves and the moody Icelandic sky. As an Iceland wedding photographer, capturing these intimate moments is what I live for. It's about immortalizing a fleeting moment of pure love, and there's an indescribable joy and fulfillment that comes with it.
&nbsp;
But the best part was yet to come. After the ceremony, we went to capture some photos in front of the huge waterfall. And as if nature itself was blessing their union, a rainbow appeared, creating a stunning spectacle. The couple, hand in hand, standing in front of the waterfall, with the rainbow above them, was a sight to behold. It was like a scene from a fairytale, and I was there to capture it.
&nbsp;
The photographs turned out to be ethereal. The joy on Magenta and Alex's faces, the Skogaofss waterfall's grandeur, and the rainbow's vibrancy created a vibrant tableau of love, adventure, and serendipity. It was a profound reminder of why I do what I do. This isn't just about taking photographs; it's about capturing love stories, creating lifetime memories and being a part of someone's most special day.
&nbsp;
Iceland, with its untouched beauty and majestic landscapes, provided a stunning backdrop to Magenta and Alex's love story. Their wedding was not just a celebration of their love, but also a celebration of adventure, nature, and the beautiful unpredictability of life. And as their Iceland destination wedding photographer, I had the honor of capturing it all.

An Icelandic Elopement: Capturing Love Amongst the Waterfalls

It's not every day that I get to capture moments of pure joy in such a stunning location. Nestled in the heart of Canmore, Alberta, Ash and Drew chose to exchange their vows by a serene lake, surrounded by the dramatic backdrop of the mountains. The scenic beauty of the venue was only outshone by the radiant happiness shared by the couple and their fun, light-hearted bridal party.
&nbsp;
My camera couldn't get enough of the smiles that were as infectious as they were genuine. As a wedding photographer, it's always a pleasure to be part of such a joyous occasion, but this wedding was something truly special. The laughter and camaraderie that flowed throughout the day were a testament to the deep bonds of friendship shared by Ash, Drew, and their bridal party. Their joy was contagious, painting each photograph with a brush of happiness.
&nbsp;
Shooting in Canmore, the town that's nestled amongst the Canadian Rockies, was an experience in itself. The tranquil lake where Ash and Drew tied the knot served as a perfect canvas for the couple's love story. The reflection of the towering mountains on the calm water, the rustling of the leaves, and the sweet melodies of the birds created an enchanting symphony that was a delight to capture.
&nbsp;
As a photographer, I always aim to blend in, to become a part of the background, to let the couple and their loved ones be the stars of the show. And on this day, there was no shortage of stars. The bridal party was a riot, keeping the spirits high and the smiles wide. Their light-hearted banter and playful antics added a unique charm to the whole event.
&nbsp;
But what stood out the most for me was the pure, unadulterated joy that Ash and Drew shared. Every look that passed between them, every shared laugh, every loving touch, told a story. A story of love, friendship, and a journey that they were embarking on together. It was a privilege to be able to capture these intimate moments.
&nbsp;
As I packed up my gear at the end of the day, I found myself smiling. I had not only been a part of a beautiful wedding but had also had the opportunity to capture the essence of what makes a wedding truly special - love, laughter, and a sense of togetherness. Thank you, Ash and Drew, for allowing me to document your special day. Here's to many more years of shared joy and infectious laughter!

Please also ensure that there are no references to “our team” or “our photographer”. Instead, all writing should be coming directly from me. I would also like it to be quite down to earth and without lots of fluff and flowery language.

I do A LOT of half and full day coordination now for my clients, where I act as a guide in the mountains in Banff and also worldwide - where I organize and coordinate everything from top to bottom so they just have to show up - from booking their Helicopters, building their itineraries, hiring all of the vendors for their date etc and offer both half and full day coordination with my photography. I really want to sell this idea, as I do both and have a great reviews for that work that I do and I believe I can be a strong presence in my market for this, as I offer a bit of higher end in depth experience being local and doing so much of this kind of work.
