We were so lucky to have Cole as our wedding photographer on July 7 2018. From initial contact and planning to check-ins throughout the day, Cole continuously made sure our expectations were met (and exceeded!). He did a fantastic job of keeping us organized while still allowing for fun, especially regarding the rowdy groomsmen. Cole found unique and beautiful spots for our photos while using spontaneity to capture how much fun we were having with family and friends. We also appreciated his constant directions regarding posing so we didn't look as awkward as we feel we are! A number of wedding guests commented to us  about the photographer's skill and ability to capture candid moments without disruption. This was especially evident at the reception when Cole seamlessly fit into the party, camera in tow. We absolutely love our sneak peaks which we received early the following day and cannot wait to see the rest of the photos. Cole was an absolute pleasure to have as our wedding day photographer!

Cole was the first photographer that we met, and right away Daniel and I knew he was the one (cliche, no?). When Daniel and I met Cole for our engagement photos, we had no clue what we were doing. We were not ourselves and just felt silly the entire time. Cole instantly put us ease, telling us pretty lame but awesome jokes, and guiding us throughout the evening. I was hesitant that any photo would turn out okay, but was blown away with his skills to make us awkward folk actually look good. When he showed up into our room on our wedding day, singing and dancing, he made me feel that much more relaxed. He took us to a stunning picturesque spot in Canmore for photos, guided us, but also just let us be in the moment. You almost forget that he’s your photographer because he just seems like a friend. He fit in with everyone, and is up for anything. Cole is such an easy-going guy, but is so incredible at what he does. He has an eye for the beauty in the small things, and can capture intense emotions and feelings in the photographs that he takes. He continues to amaze me with his photos, and I can’t wait to see the finished ones from our day!

Cole is absolutely amazing. He was the professional photographer, the comic relief, the in-pool entertainment, the newest member of the family and of course the best artist. He created the perfect atmosphere and made everyone comfortable. I am 200% perfectly happy with everything. Cole is a must-have photographer!

Cole was our photographer at our wedding in February 2018 in Banff. He really captured our wedding perfectly and our photographs are gorgeous. Cole has a wonderful personality and is a talented photographer. I found Cole through reading reviews online and I am glad I chose him to be our photographer. He communicated with us very well and arrived to our location very early on our wedding day to scout out the area. It had snowed overnight and he found several beautiful scenic locations. Several of our guests and family commented on how wonderful Cole is and we enjoyed having him at our wedding. The photos we have seen so far, are just amazing and elegant. I could not be happier! Thank you Cole so much for these special memories, I will cherish them forever.
