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

June 5th, 2024

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.

 

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.

 

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.

 

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.

 

As a destination wedding photographer, moments like these are what I live for. The joy, the emotion, the sheer beauty of it all - it's why I do what I do. More than just capturing images, I am here to orchestrate experiences, to guide couples through their special day, ensuring that everything runs smoothly so they can just show up and be in the moment.

 

I am a Canmore helicopter wedding photographer, who loves to capture adventurous elopements and wedding in the sky, it is something that I truly feel at home with. This wedding was definitely a testament to why I love my work so much. The mountains, the adventure, the chance to create something beautiful and lasting. Memories that live on forever. And if this story has inspired you, remember, I'm just a message away. Ready to make your dream heli wedding or destination wedding a reality, here in the heart of the Canadian Rockies mountains just beyond Banff, or anywhere else in the world.
