CALGARY WEDDING PHOTOGRAPHERS

CAPTURING LOVE IN CALGARY + THE ROCKIES + DESTINATIONS WORLDWIDE

So much of life happens in the smallest moments.

Our days pass by so fast that often we forget to be present,

and the last thing you want to worry about is stiff poses in front of a camera.

Dancing between documentary and editorial, my photos are for modern couples who want beautiful and captivating photographs that make them feel.

Think intimate, captivating, and effortless imagery with roots in cinematic storytelling.

I create a safe-space where you can be you; to make your commitment to each other with your hearts wide open

because I believe the most beautiful and captivating moments happen naturally.

So, take a step back and breathe in this moment.

MEET YOUR PHOTOGRAPHER

HI, I’M JOANNA

CALGARY WEDDING + ELOPEMENT PHOTOGRAPHER

for couples who prioritize being present on their special day while having captivating & beautiful photographs.

I specialize in documentary wedding photography with a sense of editorial, romantic style. As a photographer for over 10 years, I’ve found a deep passion and admiration in photographing people in their milestones, their accomplishments, their beauty, and their love.

I am so incredibly honored you are here. Trusting a photographer to preserve such an emotional day is something I do not take lightly. What a privilege it is to witness such beautiful love stories and transform it into art.

No travel fees within Calgary or Banff National Park. I am available to travel worldwide!

Banff + Canmore + Jasper + Edmonton + Vancouver + Toronto + more!

INTIMATE

Getting your photo taken is a vulnerable experience and I don’t take that lightly. I create a non-judgemental safe space for you to be fully present with your partner.

CAPTIVATING

Have peace of mind knowing that your most important moments won’t be missed. All while knowing you’ll look good in them too. Receive stunning photographs worthy to be in magazines and on your home walls.

EFFORTLESS

No stiff photos here. Be present and breathe in the moment, and I’ll do the rest.

“THERE IS ONE THING THE PHOTOGRAPH MUST CONTAIN,

THE HUMANITY OF THE MOMENT.”

ENGAGEMENTS

  • “The opportunity to work with Joanna was by far an amazing experience. I've personally modeled with other photographers before, but none can compare to my experience of getting to shoot with Joanna. She takes incredible pride in what she does and has the most amazing attitude and personality. She is sweet and enthusiastic and truly knows the meaning of working alongside her clients. She shows you your pictures throughout the photoshoots and even helps you work out your best angles which not many photographers typically do. She works hard in bettering herself at her practice, making her incredibly humble. When working with Joanna you not only get to experience a photoshoot, you also get to enjoy all the laughs and enjoyment of working alongside someone who is also going to treat you as a friend, making you feel more comfortable in front of the camera. She is also incredibly open and receptive to any ideas you may have and works alongside you to create amazing art. Joanna is a photographer I would recommend to everyone and cannot wait to work alongside again sometime in the future.”

  • “I’ve worked with Joanna a couple times now and I have to mention the amount of talent this girl has! She definitely has full knowledge with lighting, angles, location and literally everything in between. On top of that, she’s wonderful to work with. It’s always just a fun time for both parties, very casual but still very professional at the same time. There’s never an odd or awkward vibe between the model & her. I would definitely recommend working with Joanna if given the chance! The outcome of her photos is something you wouldn’t want to miss out on.”

    — Shandy

  • “Joanna was completely open to all the ideas I wanted to try as well as her own, and she guided me with poses in a very strategic way to get the perfect shot! I love working with her and she always goes to great lengths to make sure you’re happy with the shoot/concepts you’ve created. I highly recommend Joanna for any new or experienced models because you’ll be in the safest and most creative hands!! The way she works with natural sunlight is so beautifully done.”
