throw away the wedding ‘shoulds’ and awaken the possibilities
Your love story deserves to be captured in a way that feels like ‘you’
You deserve beautiful and distinctive photos that capture who you are as a unit, a team, besties and life partners.
We’re here, not just for the big epic shots, but for all those gorgeous moments in-between; the messy and the real moments that allow you to feel loved and connected and say ‘this is us’.
We believe in taking a natural, documentary style approach to wedding & elopement photography and that the best photos come from allowing you to be you! Having a good time together, exploring and playing; no set poses, no forced shots.
Relaxed
Your love story is unique and worthy of being documented.
There is a full spectrum of ways to say and celebrate your vows
Whether it’s just the two of you or all of your favourite people. Whether you choose to create an out of the box wedding experience and/or include traditions that are important to you…
From alpine lakes accessed by helicopter to valley ceremonies with mountain backdrops. From intimate vows said beside rushing rivers to lively camping celebrations with loved ones in fields or forests. Be it warm summer parties or stunning winter weddings in the snow…
How you chose to say ‘I Do’ is not about the ‘shoulds’ or other’s expectations, it’s about you two; your connection and the type of experiences you love to create together.
We’re here to guide you through creating and capturing a distinctive celebration that feels right to you and we care about documenting every valuable moment.
Distinctive
You Don’t have to be a model to have stunning photos of your wedding
Beautiful
Nobody is perfect but you are perfect for each other. Your incredible connection with your partner is the focus here. Not if your hand is holding theirs in the ‘right’ way or if your hair is ‘perfect’ with not a strand out of place.
It’s how they look at you, it’s how your body naturally fits with theirs, it’s about all the moments that led you here.
There is an innate beauty in all that you are together, in all that is messy and imperfect about love and we hope to help you see that.
In all honesty we have struggled with getting in front of the camera ourselves, we understand being photographed can feel intimating, because we’ve been there too! Our mission is to create space for you to feel comfortable and free to be yourselves; to capture the real you, just as you are. read more
Capturing your unique connection to each other; and the breathtaking great outdoors.
Who are we?
Meet your cheerleaders
We are Allie and Nicky (you can use she/her for us both), wedding and elopement photographers based in stunning Whistler, BC. Originally from England we fell in love with the incredible mountain lifestyle and all that beautiful British Columbia has to offer. We now happily call Canada home.
Adventure & travel loving friends with open minds and a passion for capturing down to earth, outdoor loving couples in a natural and creative way.
We are so much more than just another wedding vendor. We don’t ‘just’ bring our knowledge, experience and creativity. We’re with you through thick and thin, through the tears and the belly laughs. We’re not just your photographers, we’re you’re friends and cheerleaders.
Couples, the outdoors and cameras. That’s our happy place. We’re here to guide you through creating real tangible memories that you will be stoked to share for a lifetime.
If you’re even faintly interested …When we’re not hanging out behind a camera you’ll find us planning new backpacking trips abroad, on camping trips with fam/friends or persuading people to let us pet their dogs. Occasionally of course there is full couch potato mode but we’re also into skiing, hiking, biking or swimming and drinking delicious wine or hanging out in local craft breweries. (If there is ever opportunities to meld any of those activities with drinking wine or craft beer, we’ll be the ones to find it!)

Real Whistler Wedding Testimonial
“Having Nicky and Allie photograph our wedding was a dream. Having not spent much time in front of the camera I was a little nervous at the thought of being the centre of attention. But that wasn’t the case at all, we had a ton of fun and got some amazing (and adorable) photo’s to remember our wedding. ”

Frequently Asked Questions
What locations do you cover?
We are based in Whistler, BC Canada (about 1.5hrs from Vancouver) but are willing to travel anywhere in the world! We love BC and recognise our privilege in being able to choose to live here; so we think there are plenty of reasons to adventure here and choose this as your destination. However, as avid and passionate world travellers ourselves we are always happy to explore old and new destinations around the world too :)
Can I have a list of all your packages and pricing?
Of course, simply fill out our contact form here with your info and we’ll get right back to you! All our packages are fully customisable and you might not even know how much coverage you want yet (which is totally A-OK!) so we’ll book in a no-obligation consultation call to chat through your ideas so far, get to know you, allow you to get to know us a little better and then we’ll see if you desire to go forward from there.
How much photo coverage do I need (number of hours)?
The day you get married is unique, it’s a full day to celebrate your incredible relationship and connection, your way. What’s important to document will be different for every couple, we can discuss your needs and help you select the right package for you.
Do people really ever have a full day elopement?
OMG YES! Just because you are choosing to have a smaller style of celebration does not mean the day you get married is any less worthy than those that choose a big celebration with tons of people. It’s an opportunity to create your ideal day with your partner, doing things you love to do whether it’s including other people or not. We’re always here with ideas, activities and can show you sample timelines if that helps :)
How many pictures do I get?
It really depends on what is happening at the time (not all moments during a full day event are go go go) but we typically deliver approx 75 per hour of coverage.
So, you guys talk a lot about elopements on this website; what’s your definition of an elopement?
The definition of and mindset around eloping has moved on from the outdated views you may’ve heard before. It is not quick ‘n’ dirty or any less meaningful than a big fancy celebration. An elopement is a smaller, slower, more intimate and personal way to get married. It can be just two people or it can include a small number of your closest friends and/or family. There are a multitude of reasons couples choose to elope and there’s an even bigger variety of ways to do it; so it can enable couples to be more intentional and more creative with how they celebrate their day.
Do you work with and are you supportive of the rights of BIPOC and LGBTQ+ couples and families?
Unequivocally. 100%. No ifs, ands or buts.
I have more questions, where do I go now?
