With 15 years of experience flying with Alpine Helicopters and photographing weddings, I’ve created the most exceptional helicopter wedding and elopement packages available in the Banff, Canmore, and Kananaskis areas.
I proud to be the only photographer or heli-wedding provider personally endorsed by the president of Alpine Helicopters, a testament to the quality and trustworthiness of my services.
" Noel Rogers has been a trusted and valued business partner for over a decade. He has the ability to capture the best moments and create priceless photographs. Alpine Helicopters is very proud to be working with Noel and his Helicopter Weddings".
Dave Gubbles, President of Alpine Helicopters
When comparing my prices and full package options to others, you will quickly see that I offer the best valued pricing while providing the expertise of one of the most experienced photographers in the area.
It is important to note that all helicopter weddings in the Canmore, Banff, and Kananaskis region are booked exclusively through Alpine Helicopters. If you come across a different package or price, remember that everyone pays the same base rate to book through Alpine.
​
Be cautious when shopping around, as some photographers and companies charge significantly more while offering fewer benefits, limited package options, and less photography experience.
​
In the event the helicopter cannot fly due to mountain weather or winds, you will not incur any costs for the helicopter booking. Contact me for additional details and to discuss how I can help make your helicopter wedding unforgettable.

Fortress Mountain provides exclusive chauffeured 4x4 access to multiple breathtaking ceremony and portrait locations in the stunning mountain ranges of kananaskis.
This package accommodates anywhere from 2 people up to up 30 guests, making it ideal for intimate elopements or small weddings.
Fortress Mountain offers an exceptional alternative and is very similar to a helicopter wedding, combining the same sense of adventure with a unique twist. Instead of flying, you’ll be chauffeured in a luxury 4x4 side-by-side vehicle to explore breathtaking high-alpine ridgelines at elevations around 8,000 feet. This exclusive access allows you to visit multiple scenic locations across the mountain, providing lots of opportunities for stunning ceremony and portrait settings. The experience is both thrilling and intimate, offering you and your guests a memorable journey through some of the most picturesque landscapes in the Canadian Rockies.
​
fortress encompasses a huge area that is completely private and offers countless amazing portrait locations. Fortress Mountain also features picturesque larch tree landscapes, which are especially stunning during the vibrant fall color change..
With the privacy provided by a gated 12km road inaccessible to the public, Fortress Mountain offers an exclusive experience, even during the busiest days in the surrounding mountain parks. This is particularly ideal during the peak of larch season in late September, when the vibrant golden trees are at their most beautiful. Unlike the crowded parking lots of Kananaskis and Banff, Fortress allows you to enjoy the stunning larch landscapes entirely to yourselves—without the need for hiking or a helicopter. This is a truely unique option.
Multiple options for 4x4 accessed hiking elopements are available. As a certified guide with the Association of Canadian Mountain Guides, I’ll lead you to breathtaking, exclusive locations that few ever get to experience, ensuring your elopement feels as unique as your love story
​
As a popular filming location for high-budget Hollywood movies and TV shows, Fortress Mountain offers cinematic beauty like no other. Visit their website to explore a showcase of movies filmed here and to see stunning video examples of the mountain's breathtaking scenery.
