Waterfalls can make for an amazing backdrop to your engagement photos in Kananaskis. For this waterfall engagement photos in Kananaskis we hiked early to get the sunrise. Kananaskis is full of stunning waterfalls that have varying levels of hikes to access. ALL TRAILS APP is an incredible resource for searching and planning your waterfall hike.
It is incredibly important to implement safety into any waterfall engagement session. Many waterfalls are large and have a sweeping undertow that can be deadly. When ever you plan to get into water of any body you need to check for hazards before hand. All Trails is good to check but researching any hazards in Alberta parks is a must.
This session was built around safety. We researched the size of the waterfall and found was to be only a few feet deep at this time of year. My couple can prepared with addition clothing and blankets to quickly warm up. Mountain waterfalls are very cold and can cause your temperature to drop fast. We limited the time spent in the water and jumped out quickly.
As a professional photographer I have an underwater housing for my equipment. This allows me to drop my camera into the water to capture a top and bottom reflection. As seen in the photo below.
