Nature-Led Wedding & Elopement Photography
For couples who feel most alive outdoors — wandering trails, sharing quiet moments, and building a life rooted in presence and connection.
Based in Brooks, Alberta & always up for wandering new places.
With over 11 years behind the camera, I photograph weddings & elopements with a balance of guidance and space — stepping in when you need direction and stepping back when moments unfold naturally.
Over time, I’ve learned that the most meaningful moments don’t happen when everything is performed, but when you’re fully present. When the place you’ve chosen matters. When you’re grounded in the landscape, surrounded by the people you love, and connected in a way that feels real and unguarded.
Your day isn’t a production; it’s an experience. I’ll take care of the timeline, details, and flow so you can stay present, relaxed, and fully immersed in the moment.
Hey, I’m Emily — most people call me Em.
I’m deeply drawn to the feeling of awe — the kind that comes from standing in a place that makes you feel small in the best way. Wide skies, winding paths, quiet stillness, and landscapes that hold meaning long before we ever arrive.
When I photograph, I’m paying attention to how people exist within those spaces, how connection softens in the open air, how love looks when it’s held by something bigger than us. The landscape isn’t just a backdrop — it’s part of the story.
If you’re someone who feels most alive outdoors, who values presence and wonder, and who wants images that reflect both your connection and the magnitude of the place you’re in, this work will likely feel deeply aligned.
how I see the world
and the people in it
We were hoping to find someone who could capture the essence of our celebration with warmth and authenticity, and Em did exactly that. From the very beginning, she felt like a friend. Her easygoing nature helped us relax and just enjoy the moment, and the way she quietly blended in made everything feel so natural. The images she delivered brought every emotion flooding back. We laughed, cried, and felt like we were reliving the whole day.
she preserved memories we’ll cherish forever."
"Em didn’t just photograph our wedding...
Rowan & Coltan
Brooks & Duchess Wedding
I wanted someone fun and easygoing who could capture the love and joy of the day—and she did just that. Our engagement session felt super relaxed and set the tone for everything. On the wedding day, she jumped into a truck with zero hesitation to head down a washed-out dirt road to the river—we said, ‘Get in,’ and she was like, ‘OK!’ The whole experience was so relaxed and stress-free. I had full confidence in her from the start, and she handled everything like a pro.
Seeing the photos brought back every emotion, and they still do every time I look at them."
"Emily was a total dream to work with
Gail & Travis
Iddesleigh Wedding
She was our ultimate hype girl and made everything feel so fun and easy. When we saw the photos, we relived the whole day. She captured everything from the laughter during our vows to that perfect shot of us walking through a shower of rose petals. Em gave just the right amount of direction while still listening to our ideas, and her editing skills? Incredible. My husband calls one of our final images a masterpiece.
She even rode a snowmobile up the mountain to get to our engagement shoot spot!"
"Em went above and beyond -
Breanalee & Cody
Crowsnest Pass Wedding
I originally planned to shoot a proposal pre-pandemic and even though the US-Canadian border closed, we stayed in contact and got to know each other very well! Once the borders reopened, Em made herself available to shoot despite her busy schedule. This was my first time shooting with any photographer and we all had a blast.
if you're looking for someone who will go above and beyond your expectations."
" I would highly recommend Em
