hi - im lAURA
I'm an internationally published commercial and editorial photographer currently based in Revelstoke, British Columbia. My passion for nature and outdoor recreation has not only made me a dedicated outdoor adventure photographer - but my versatility expands beyond the outdoors to Tourism, Brand Campaigns, Weddings, Architecture, Food and Boudoir photography.
In my work, the focus is not only to advocate for environmental conservation but also to help uplift and inspire women and LGBTQIA2+ in outdoor communities.
I often travel to Vancouver, Kelowna, Kamloops, Banff & Calgary, as well as internationally for a shoot.
Let's connect!

'To say that Laura went above and beyond for our surprise proposal/engagement photoshoot would be an understatement. Laura embodies everything that you would want in a photographer. She went out of her way to not only capture our day beautifully but to also create special moments just for us. Laura is so passionate about her work, and it was apparent in not only her photos but how comfortable she made us feel. She was detail-oriented, timely, creative, positive and professional.
What stood out the most, was that she was always on the lookout for the next photo opportunity and she just has an eye for capturing the perfect frame. Her editing skills are incredible and somehow made the scenery even more breathtaking. She also made us both look amazing even though a) it was 4am b) we had just hiked up a mountain and c) we had been sleeping in a van the night before! We just feel so incredibly lucky to have had the opportunity to work with her and would recommend her to literally anyone who wants to be blown away by their photos. Thank you for everything Laura!'

'Laura did an incredible job photographing headshots and group shots for my workplace. She also went above and beyond taking photos of products for my website and they all turned out incredible. As well, I have used her for family photos and again, was so happy with the result. She is friendly, fun, and easy going, and made us all comfortable while getting our photos taken. I definitely recommend her!

'When we moved to Alberta we lucked out and found Laura who did our family photos for the next 4 years! She captured our family and the beautiful mountains every time, was great with our kids and knows all the great spots. If we didn't move she would be doing our post-covid one's right now!'

Laura is not only an amazing photographer but she is also a genuinely passionate ambassador of Revelstoke and all it has to offer!
From the moment we met her we knew that she would be great but she far exceeded our expectations! She was able to take us to the most beautiful remote locations which she had access to and was able to give us a glimpse of the beautiful natural scenery and landscapes out of the typical public eye.
She also made taking the photos a breeze by making us feel comfortable and at home with her friendly nature.
Our photos turned out great and we honestly could not have been happier!
If you are looking for a professional, fun and skilled photographer to capture your special occasion she comes very highly recommended!

'We had our engagement photos done in Banff by Laura in 2016, and it was such an amazing experience. She knew the area well as we didn’t so we just followed her and she took us to the most amazing places, at one point we got photo bombed by a pack of mountain sheep and she was so hilarious and professional about it lol.
We had never met her before but she was recommended by a friend, we met up the day of the photos and instantly connected, she’s a very personable woman and made us feel very comfortable right off the hop.
Ladies…she will ask you to take your ring off at some point so she can do what will feel like very scary things bahahaha just let her. She was putting my ring on tree branches and I was terrified the whole time but the pictures turned out beautifully and don’t worry…the ring was perfectly safe lol.'

'Laura did a portrait set for me and I found the photos to be fantastic. She was easy to work with, she gently guided me while offering suggestions on how to most naturally photograph me. I never felt any ego during the shoot, it seemed like she was happily there, teaming up with me to get what we wanted. The photos turned out great and her laughter made me smile.
Definitely recommend.'

Laura did our engagement photo shoot in Revelstoke and it was the best decision we ever made! She recommended incredible vistas and vantage points to take photos from and met with us in person to drive out to these locations. She made us feel super comfortable during our session and the pictures were breathtaking. Our photos felt like something straight out of a magazine! Could not recommend more :)

We had family photos taken by Laura and she went above and beyond to get good photos. She was very patient and creative with how to get our 6 month olds attention. The pictures turned out incredible and I’m so grateful to always have them to remember the early days of our new family! Thanks Laura!
