FREQuEntly AskEd QuEstions
Q: Do we need a permit to get married in Jasper National Park?
A: Yes, you are required to have a Parks Canada Wedding Registration permit, as well as an Alberta Marriage License. However, when you book with me, I handle the location scouting and guide you step-by-step through the permit process so you can just focus on your day.
Find Out More HereQ: How much does an elopement photographer cost in Jasper?
A: My adventure elopement photography packages start at $1,500 for 2 hours of coverage. I believe in total transparency and no hidden fees or high-pressure package pitches. A $200 deposit secures your date, and we build the rest of your custom adventure from there.
Q: What if it rains or snows on our elopement day?
A: We embrace it. There is no such thing as "bad" weather in the Canadian Rockies, just different types of beauty. Moody skies, rain, and fresh snow make for the most epic, romantic photos. Bring your muddy boots, I’ll pack a clear umbrella, and we’ll lean into the wild elements of the mountains.
Learn MoreQ: We want to elope, but feel guilty about our families not being there. What do we do?
A: You are not alone; this is the exact wall I hit when planning my own wedding. You are allowed to have a private ceremony that is just for you. We can build in beautiful ways to include them from afar, whether that’s reading their letters on the trail, a post-vow FaceTime. I always deliver a sneak-peek gallery within 24 hours so you have photos to share with them right away.
Q: Do you share your hidden location spots?
A: I don’t publish my private location pins on the internet to protect them from crowds, but I do share them with my couples. During our free discovery call, we’ll look at a map together and I’ll build a custom location list based on the exact vibe you want; whether that’s a deep forest, a wind-swept ridge, or a quiet alpine lake.
Discover Jasper National ParkQ: What do we actually do on an elopement day? just taking photos the whole time?
A: Absolutely not. Ditching the traditional wedding means you don't have to follow a rigid timeline. Your day can look however you want it to. We can hike a trail in Maligne Valley, ride motorbikes up to a lookout in Hinton Northern Rockies or have a picnic at Pyramid Lake. It’s not a staged photoshoot; it’s a adventure tailored to you, documented as it unfolds naturally.
