  • Christy D Swanberg
  • photographer

I am Christy D Swanberg and I am humbled that you’re here. I am a southern Louisiana girl, who now calls Calgary, Alberta home. I have a wonderful Canadian husband and two darling children.

14 years ago, I wanted to explore this beautiful journey of capturing all of life’s moments, the beauty, love and life that is all over the globe. Becoming a photographer allows me to share my gifts and talents with the world. Capturing people in their true authentic selves while enjoying and loving their lives, is part of my life's purpose. In other words, showing you your beauty in the smallest and biggest moments of your life is what it is all about for me.

Outside of photography, I find joy in long patio nights, sunsets in new places around the world, holding my children’s hands, impromtu dance parties, creating menus and cooking for my family and friends, but most importantly, i love to laugh so hard that I can’t feel my toes. I love, love and being able to live this life with all I have.

My belief is in helping people fall in love with their lives and embrace this beautiful life that we’re given, through moments big and small. I believe that it’s more than photography. It’s about capturing a place in time and in our lives through emotion, comfort, celebration and all wiith a little grace.

I love travelling the globe in search of new surroundings and making connections with my clients. Whether you’re tieing the knot abroad, have been following my work from afar or wish to capture your next experience somewhere magical, I’m here to capture those moments for you.
