Banff elopement and adventure wedding photographer

capturing the authentic love of couples

striving to live an adventurous life

Welcome Adventurer,

We are Robert Massey Photography, Banff-based elopement and intimate mountain wedding photographers serving Canmore, Jasper, the Canadian Rockies, and anywhere else adventures happen. Thanks for stopping in! We would be stoked to get to know you.

Are you planning your perfect adventure elopement or intimate mountain wedding but are worried you won’t be able to find a photographer who can actually keep up with the adventure you have planned? Then you have come to the right place. At Robert Massey Photography, we specialize in adventure photography for elopements and intimate weddings. We are stoked climbing mountains, fording rivers, making s’mores by the fire, and swimming in the ocean (or alpine lakes). We are open to any adventure, big or small. Reach out, we love talking adventure.

Are you nervous about being in front of the camera? Don’t worry, so are we, and pretty much everybody we talk to tells us this. We take a simple approach to photography that gets you interacting with each other and your environment in a playful and fun way. We have always found that people’s best pictures come when they are doing something they love. We want to get to know you, explore places that mean something to you, and show you off doing things that light you up. Throughout the adventure, we will work together to create beautiful memories and art. These are portraits of your love, joy, passion, and the places and things that make your heart smile.

Are you worried you won’t recognize yourselves in the images? These sessions are about going beyond the picture-perfect shots. Those are important, and you will get those awe-inspiring shots that you’ll want on your wall for years to come! But life is complex. It’s messy; it’s fast; it’s wild. If we only gave you the ‘picture-perfect’ shots, you would miss important parts of your day. We want to show you off in the most beautiful and authentic way possible. We love to capture those moments in life, those memories you will want to hold onto forever.

If having your most authentic self shines through in images is what you are looking for, then contact us and let’s chat about your dream. let’s get out and show off who you are while doing what you love!

Let’s Adventure!

meet your adventure wedding photographer

Hello Adventurer! I’m Robert, a Banff-based adventure photographer. I grew up with the Canadian Rockies on my doorstep in Calgary, and today the mountains are my permanent home in Banff, Canada. I capture the memories and moments of adventurous love in Banff, Canmore, Jasper and throughout the Canadian Rockies through adventure elopements and intimate mountain weddings.

As your adventure elopement photographer, I’m here for you at every step of your journey. Eloping can be a lot of stress, especially if you haven’t been to your destination before. That’s where myself and the team here can help. With decades of adventure experience and time spent in Banff and the surrounding areas, we can suggest the perfect locations and adventure ideas, all the way to getting wedding attire safely into backpacks. Let myself and the team at Robert Massey Photography make your perfect adventure wedding happen.

There is no one way to get married. This is the start of your adventure together, and your wedding should be about your partnership and your personalities. Make this day a representation of you. Sometimes though, it can be hard to find just the right adventure and touches. This is where we can help. We love using our extensive knowledge of the Canadian Rockies to help you find your perfect adventure for this special moment.

I believe in capturing beautiful moments that you will be proud to display for years to come. But beyond that, I also believe in capturing the pure and authentic. The messy hair, the mud on shoes, and the moments that make life real - that make adventure so adventurous. Not everything we capture will be perfectly posed or perfectly lit (although there will certainly be lots of that), but everything will represent the feelings, memories and important moments of your elopement.
