Greetings from almost a full month of travel in the Rocky Mountains!
After a Hedman family wedding in Denver, Colorado this August, we headed up toward Banff National Park in Canada and spent a fantastic week exploring this gorgeous land. When my husband Gary departed for home that week, I stayed behind and again buckled down to work a pretty normal schedule – albeit from entirely distracting surroundings!
I found Julie of Julie Williams Photography online before I came here, but ya’ know I really can’t even remember how. What I do know is that she captured photos at Banff’s Moraine Lake around the same week that my parents did while RVing last summer, and I instantly knew that I had to find my way to this amazing place!
As soon as I arrived, Julie started introducing me to the local network of photographers, and it turns out I’m now assisting with a total of seven weddings with three different photographers! AMAZING! But first, I want to introduce you to Julie herself, and Adam, the man she plans to marry next week!


Kind of a ham in front of the camera, wouldn’t ya say? Adam, we so appreciate you going along with the fun!





These two are an amazing couple, and I could have just fallen in love with them solely through the story of their bush-party wedding plans. I’m such a sucker for the adventurous and outdoorsy wedding locations. Lucky enough for me, I’ll be there in person now!






Julie, I can’t thank you enough for welcoming me in and sharing your community and backdrop with me! It has been absolutely incredible already, and still with the biggest excitement yet to come! I wish you and Adam a long lifetime of laughter, support, encouragement and love. Gary and I will forever be grateful to have you as friends.



Julie - Mrs. Hedman! These photos are just so great. My new favorite hobby is seriously being in front of your camera. Thanks so much for taking such a leap of faith for your August here in Canmore…you fit in so well around these parts!
Meg Simone - Life Regret #1, not coming with you. Seriously, you guys are having so much fun and LOOK at that backdrop! It’s jaw dropping! Julie and Adam are so stinking cute! I guess I will have to wait until there is snow on those mountains to meet the new Mr. & Mrs. in person :) Thank you for skyping with me tonight and showing me the mountains xoxox
