Nicole and Chris' Kananaskis Adventure Engagement Session

What was supposed to be a simple engagement session turned into an animal safari when we saw a wolf and moose on the drive out! We chose a spot in Kananaskis with some sweet views and none of the crowds found in Banff National Park. After about 45 minutes of uphill hiking we reached the spot overlooking Upper and Lower Kananaskis Lakes and proceeded to take some fun photos. On the way back I suggested we take the back road into Canmore in hopes of seeing more wildlife as the light faded. Were we ever lucky! We saw two bears, numerous deer and big horn sheep as well as half a dozen bunny rabbits. I was so glad to spend the afternoon with Nicole and Chris, show them some of my favourite spots in Kananaskis as well as be so lucky to see all of these wild animals.

Our engagement sessions are more than simply taking some snaps next to the road! I love taking my couples for a walk to see the natural beauty in less frequented areas of the Rockies... it's always an adventure! See more examples or contact us to book now!
