I got a call from someone in Toronto this summer. Their friend was going to propose on top of Sulphur Mountain the next day, and they thought it would be crazy not to have a photographer there! I agreed. One of the advantages of being a Banff, Alberta based wedding photographer is getting the chance to capture special moments like these in the mountains! Through some secretive and hurried texting with the to-be groom, we came up with a plan. Like any well-intentioned plan, it obviously fell apart when we over estimated the time it would take them to hike up the mountain by over an hour. Thankfully, luck was on our side and it all worked out. Besides, we all know that the most important thing is the answer to the big question, to which she said yes! We’re very excited to be covering J + J’s wedding in Cambridge, Ont. this coming October, to see their love story come full circle.
