Banff Elopement Photographers

Elopements and adventure weddings in the Canadian Rockies + BC

Your Banff Elopement Has No Boundaries

& Your Love Has No Limits

Most of the couples we work with come to us with three things in common: some ideas for their elopement day, a lot of love between them, and an overwhelming number of decisions to make. If that’s you, you’re in the right place. As local Banff elopement photographers, we specialize in helping couples hone their ideas and embrace the uniqueness of their relationship, and bring to life the elopement or non-traditional wedding of their dreams.

From helping you with logistics to creating a photography timeline that captures every shared moment, we’re here for you through it all.

Your Love, Your Vision, Your Rules

because this could be you

Your Elopement Should Feel Like You

When it is just the two of you, there really are no rules

We’re the kind of elopement photographers who will do whatever we can to make sure you celebrate your wedding day exactly how you want to. Whatever that looks like.

Some of our favourite moments that we’ve captured include a couple who decided to take a helicopter ride to a mountain summit to shotgun a beer on their wedding day (which was a tradition they shared), and when we had the privilege of photographing a couple who hit some pow at Lake Louise Ski Resort on their Banff elopement (snowboarding was how they met).

Hi! We’re Kieran & Dila

We’re up for anything that feels authentic to you

(and are more than willing to bring new ideas to the table!).

Hey there! We’re Dila and Kieran, a husband-and-wife Banff photographer and videography duo specializing in elopements and intimate weddings. For over eight years, we’ve been helping couples live their dreams of getting married in Banff. As local Banff elopement photographers, we’re passionate about capturing your unique mountain elopement, so that you can relive every breathtaking moment for years to come.

If you’re dreaming of an elopement in Banff, we’d LOVE to be there with you—exploring the stunning Canadian Rockies, celebrating your love, and documenting every genuine, heartfelt moment of your day.

Whether it’s your first or fiftieth time visiting the Canadian Rockies, there’s no better place to start this next chapter of your love story.

If you’re ready to plan a Banff elopement or intimate wedding that’s truly your own, you’re in the right place. Let’s make it unforgettable!

learn more about us

You rent a charming cabin in the heart of Banff, and get ready in separate rooms. I’ll meet you there and set you both up for a heart-stopping first look on your porch overlooking a gorgeous alpine lake. It’s emotional and magical and you both take a moment to just soak in it all.

From there, we hop in the car and drive to one of the mountain passes. Then, a helicopter picks you up to enjoy mountain-top champagne and dessert to celebrate! While you two enjoy spending your wedding day afternoon on cloud nine, the adventures don’t stop there.

Once you land, you end the day in a sunset canoe over a turquoise lake. We bid you farewell and you spend the rest of the night reminiscing and feeling nostalgic about what an incredible wedding day you had.

Kind Words

From Couples Who Have Hired Us To Be Their Banff Elopement Photographer

From my clients

“…We made THE BEST decision when we chose Dila and Kieran!…”

“My husband and I always knew that we wanted our elopement to be an EPIC experience! My expectations were so high that before booking with them, I often found myself wondering if it was even possible to meet them. (It’s your wedding day, you want everything to be perfect, right?) Thankfully, our experience ended up being even more incredible than I could have ever imagined!

From start to finish Dila and Kieran worked so hard to make sure that every detail was perfect. Being from the U.S we were not familiar with the area, the weather, the process of elopement, nothing. Dila and Kieran made sure that we were fully prepared! We are so very thankful to have found them and enjoyed sharing such a beautiful experience with them. Pertiwi photography went above and beyond to ensure that we had the elopement of a lifetime. Trust that you are in great hands with them!

We cannot thank them enough for going above and beyond for us… We made THE BEST decision when we chose Dila and Kieran!“

“…Dila was incredibly honest and literally had an answer to every question we had on how to have an intimate mountain wedding...”

Oh boy where do we even begin? After many rescheduled dates from our original wedding day, in the spur of the moment we decided to have our wedding in the mountains. We basically planned the wedding in about a week and it was crazy, but Dila was so reassuring and very helpful with us in making our decision. Dila was incredibly honest and literally had an answer to every question we had on how to have an intimate mountain wedding.

Every minute of our experience was so easy and enjoyable. Dila was very accommodating and attentive, we didnt have to worry about anything. Dila is also great at scheduling and she sticks to it with little to no deviation (she’s basically an event planner!). Not only was she great at accommodating us, but also with our friends and family. Everybody adored Dila as much as we did, it’s as if we’ve known each other for a long time.

We recommend Dila 💯 again and again. Do it, it’s a mistake if you don’t hire her because her work is AMAZING and you don’t know what you’ll be missing out on.

“…we are not from Alberta but wanted to get married/elope in Banff. Because we are not from the area we were a little nervous but she went ABOVE AND BEYOND...”

SHE IS THE BEST! To start, we are not from Alberta but wanted to get married/elope in Banff. Because we are not from the area we were a little nervous but she went ABOVE AND BEYOND. Her communication was top notch and we were able to video call, email (we would email weekly!), chat and meet her the day before the ceremony! She sent us a list of so many ideas of where to go the day of the wedding and even hiking trails for us to do before the big day! She was more than a photographer – she helped me find hair & makeup – she helped facilitate the whole day. She was basically my planner and photographer and maid of honor in one. It was just my fiance and I so she had to help me put my dress on and carry my shoes when we hiked. YOU GUYS!!! SHE IS SO GENUINE, KIND and FUNNY!!! The whole process made me feel like I was working with a good friend! Also, it’s important to note that my fiance (now husband) and I can be awkward when it comes to posing in photos – but with her it was never awkward because she knows what she is doing and made us feel totally natural! I cannot say enough great things – she 100% helped make our day perfect! Thank you so much Dila – definitely blessed and grateful we found you!
