“Megan photographed our surprise proposal at Lake Louise and she made it so special and captured the most amazing photos. She is so friendly and fun to have as a photographer. All the pictures were stunning and she captured all the scenery and details you could imagine. She set up zoom calls with my fiancé weeks in advance and gave him tips for what to wear and for posing. I loved every photo and she gave us our sneak peak extremely fast. We are so thankful that she captured this special moment perfectly.”
