As a wedding photographer in Whistler, BC –

Some shoots I need to find my inner mountain goat for an epic heli session on the mountain top or I am required to strap on a pair of skis to capture a ski wedding or romantic couples e-session on the slopes. My local Whistler knowledge helps guide my clients with location advice when having a wedding at a specific venue or when planning a beautiful experience for a private couples session.

It also makes for good stories along the way.
