FUN Engagement Session at McDonald’s in Edmonton, Alberta

When you think of engagement photos, most people think of a scenic park, a city skyline, or even the mountains. But, my favourite people think of places like… the thrift store, a small-town dive bar, underneath the Golden Arches?

When these guys said “McDonald’s” AND got us fries - immediate BFFs.

That’s right! This Edmonton couple, who later tied the knot at an incredible destination wedding in Iceland, decided to throw tradition out the window and make their engagement photoshoot all about them. And what’s more them (us before kids too lol) than a late-night McDonald’s run?


The place that hosted conversations over fries + milkshakes. Their shoot was filled with a perfect mix of laughter, fries, and some signature McDonald's flair that totally captured their personality.

Oh ya, the best part. When the drive-thru guy said (without warning) “get out of the drive-thru or I’m calling security”. 😅

Edmonton offers endless possibilities for engagement photos, whether you want something traditional, like this STUNNING sunset charcuterie picnic session in Edmonton - or you're like this McDonald’s couple and looking for something a little off-beat and fun. :)

Cityscape, nature, or even a casual fast-food joint, your session should reflect you as a couple.

If you're planning a destination wedding, like this couple’s absolutely epic ceremony in Iceland, your engagement session can tie in a little bit of the story leading up to it too!

Whether you’re going for trendy, casual, or a mix of both, I'm all about capturing your vibe + personalities authentically. So, if you want to remember your wedding day by how much FUN you had - I’m the photographer for you.
