Beneath every glance, touch, and quiet laugh lies a story waiting to be told—and engagement photography is where that story begins.

Based in Sherwood Park and Edmonton, I specialize in natural, emotion-driven engagement sessions that capture the honest, unscripted connection between you and your partner.
This isn’t about perfect poses or staged smiles. It’s about trust, presence, and that spark that lives between you—something beautifully real that emerges when you’re simply allowed to be yourselves.
Whether we’re strolling through golden fields, standing under moody skies, or cozying up in your favorite hidden spot, the goal is the same: to reveal something true, something unforgettable, and something you’ll cherish long after the session ends.

Catriona and Alan were hands down the best photographers we ever had the pleasure of working with. My fiancé and I are naturally quite shy, they created such a relaxed, comfortable, and genuinely fun environment that the entire shoot became one of our favorite experiences. Their authenticity and down-to-earth personalities made it so easy to connect with them. If you’re looking for photographers for any event, look no further these two are truly the ones to hire.

What’s Included

We want your photos to feel like you. Whether it’s a favourite park, an urban stroll, or a golden-hour lakefront, we’ll help you choose the perfect spot. Travel up to 60 km (or about one hour from Sherwood Park/Edmonton) is included at no extra cost.

Yes! If you book any of our wedding collections within 12 months of your session, we’ll apply a $375 credit to your wedding total—even if you’ve already had your engagement photos. No hoops, no hassle.

Not at all. Most couples tell us that they’re nervous—and then leave saying it was way more fun than they expected. We guide you through the session in a natural, easygoing way so you can relax, be yourselves, and forget the camera’s even there.

We always watch the forecast closely and will check in with you the day before. If it looks like rain, we can reschedule (no extra cost) or adapt the session creatively with umbrellas, moody skies, or even a cozy indoor location. We’ve got you covered—literally.
