A Winter Engagement Session at the Sherwood Park Marsh: Colette & Lance

A Winter Engagement Session at the Sherwood Park Marsh: Colette & Lance

Megan photographed this winter engagement session with Colette & Lance at the Sherwood Park marsh, and it was a great example of how engagement photos can be personal, meaningful, and completely unique to each couple.

What made this Sherwood Park winter engagement session stand out was their decision to include their hunting outfits. Hunting is something they enjoy together, and incorporating it into their engagement photos added an authentic layer to the story they’re telling. These kinds of personal details help create images that feel natural and intentional, rather than posed or generic.

When planning engagement photos, it’s easy to assume there’s only one “right” way to do them. But engagement sessions don’t have to mean dressing up and heading into a forest unless that’s what you love. Choosing a location that’s meaningful—like the Sherwood Park marsh—or including clothing, props, or activities that reflect your lifestyle can make the experience far more relaxed and enjoyable.

The marsh is one of our favourite spots for winter engagement photos in Sherwood Park. The open landscape and soft winter light create a clean, timeless backdrop that works beautifully in every season, especially winter.

If you’re planning a winter engagement session in Sherwood Park, think about what makes your relationship unique and how you can incorporate that into your photos. The result is a session that feels personal, intentional, and true to your story.
