Why my favourite photo locations aren’t always taken in the mountains.
When people picture photos in Golden, BC, they often imagine sweeping mountain views, and for good reason. We are incredibly lucky to be surrounded by some of the most breathtaking landscapes in the world. But over the years, I've discovered that the photographs I treasure most aren't always the ones with the biggest views.
The truth is, the landscape is never the star of the story. The people are.
A quiet field, an old cottage, a winding path, or a hidden corner can become something extraordinary when it holds genuine connection. The laughter, the way someone looks at the person they love, the small moments that happen between poses, these are the things that make an image unforgettable.
Of course, if your dream is an epic mountain backdrop, I will happily help you create that. But beautiful photographs don't require a famous view. They require people who are present, connected, and willing to let their story unfold.
