There’s a lot that goes into planning your big day: choosing a venue, sorting out the meal, picking the centerpieces…the list goes on. These are the details that make the day special – the little things that set your wedding apart and speak to what makes your connection to one another unique. 

When everything’s all said and done though, there’s just one thing you walk away from your wedding with. The chairs get returned to the vendor, the food and drink become a scrumptiously fond memory – but it’s your wedding photos that you keep with you for the rest of your life. Discover a local Banff wedding photographer that knows how to shoot in the mountains and capture all the beautiful, extraordinary details that will make your big day a memorable one – discover Rocky Mountain Photo Co. today. 

Capturing that Rocky Mountain Moment

Whether you’re looking to capture the beauty of a Canmore wedding, the excitement of a Lake Louise elopement, or anything in between, Rocky Mountain Photo Co. has you covered. Owned by lead photographer Dr. Lindsay Copeland and operated alongside the skilled expertise of photogs Elisabeth Cole and Tess Lucas, Rocky Mountain Photo Co. specializes in capturing your mountain wedding event in a manner and style that speaks to you, your partner, and your story together.

Armed with an eye for the perfect shot and a knowledge of the Rockies that only locals can offer, Lindsay, Tess and Elisabeth bring a passion for film and a fervor for romance to each and every shoot they run, collaborating together with you and your partner to frame your big day through a perfectly picturesque series of moments and milestones.   

Shooting in a Style All Our Own

Let’s get this out of the way right off the top: these aren’t your nana’s wedding photos. We don’t expect you’d want them to be, either! Gone are the days of overly-bright, perfectly-posed wedding photography – at least from our point of view. Instead, Rocky Mountain Photo Co. approaches wedding and elopement photography from an angle that’s as authentic and genuine as the connection shared between you and your partner. 

We’re here to capture the moments where your smiles are shining and your hearts are singing. Of course, we’ll absolutely line everyone up for a big group photo at one point or another – but in our experience, the photos that really tell the story of the day aren’t the ones where everybody is prim and proper and perfectly prepared. Instead, we find the most cherished memories are often the moments we catch candidly in between: you and your partner, sneaking a quiet shared moment together amidst all the excitement; your great, great aunt, smiling contentedly as you walk down the aisle; the brave little ringbearer, getting a pep talk before stepping into the spotlight. 

These are the stories we love to tell and the pictures we love to take – all shot in a style that’s modern, compelling, and desperately, breathtakingly romantic. 

Working Hand-in-Hand-in-Hand

There’s something to be said for working with a team that runs like well-oiled machine. That’s why Lindsay, Elisabeth, and Tess like working together on all their projects and proposals, constantly leaning on each other’s creative experience behind the lens and behind the scenes to ensure every shoot’s a success and every shot’s a stand-out. These three creatives have gotten to know each other’s shooting styles, editing ambitions, and little idiosyncrasies inside and out – they work together hand-in-glove and have an established system down-pat to ensure that every outing is a smooth one and every endeavour ends in success. 

The collaborative energy doesn’t stop there, though. You might not know this, but Rocky Mountain Photo Co. isn’t just a stand-alone photo outfit – we’re actually part of the larger Rocky Mountain Wedding Collective. This is good news for you, because if you happen to be planning your big day with Rocky Mountain Weddings and Events – or your big escape with Rocky Mountain Elopements – you’ll be able to rest easy knowing that your photog team will be perfectly in-sync and onboard with everything your planning team is putting together for you. Heck, we might even be able to save you a few bucks in the process – not bad, right?

Love Through the Lens of Inclusivity

Having spent countless hours looking through a screen or viewfinder at innumerable happy couples, we can confirm with steadfast conviction what we of course already know: that love is love is love. Period.

It’s through this lens of inclusivity that we approach everything we do here at Rocky Mountain Photo Co. and across the wider Rocky Mountain Wedding Collective. 

It’s why you won’t ever see gendered language or male/female-specific pronouns in our work and why prefer to make reference to partners rather than husbands or wives. 

Why we’re not just proud, but thrilled to work with any two people who are looking to commit their lives to one another in love – regardless of race, gender, creed, or orientation. 

We believe in equality. We believe in inclusivity. And most of all, we believe in love. 

Lights, Camera, Wedding!

Capture the beauty of your big day against the backdrop of the soaring Canadian Rockies the way only locals truly know how. Discover the best shots and the most stunning vistas through the expert guidance of a team that lives, works, and shoots amongst the mountains on the regular. 

Perhaps most importantly, work and collaborate with a photography team who don’t just know their way around an f-stop setting, but are genuinely awesome human beings that you’ll enjoy having around on an up-close-and-personal level throughout one of the biggest, most important days of your life.
