Shirleen and her husband Troy are phenomenal. It's pretty rare that someone you just met can make you laugh and have as much fun as these two can. My wife and I went to Banff for some wedding shots and couldn't have been happier with the results. She even got us a sneak peek the same day! Honestly, we couldn't recommend anyone else higher.read more

Rob and I had never in our lives had professional photographs taken. To say we were uncomfortable in front of a camera was an understatement; yet within minutes Shirleen and Troy made us feel so comfortable and confident. Their direction, enthusiasm, encouragement, and dedication, made the experience so enjoyable. There is nothing they won't do for the perfect shot! Shirleen challenged her fear of seaweed and got waste deep while Troy climbed cliffs for the perfect angle! They challenged security guards for the most unique shots in rare locations, they bartered with management at a million dollar hotel for the chance to, not only provide extravagant photos for the hotel to use, but to also showcase us in the most extravagant of locations. The time they put into each day spent with us far exceeded our expectations! They were so generous with their time. To say you get your money's worth is an understatement - it's actually a deal! Their passion for the art they create is evident from start to finish and is contagious! We loved every minute of our time spent with Shirleen and Troy! They aren't just our photographers they have become our friends. We genuinely missed them hours after our final shoot was done. Above and beyond any part of this experience, my favourite was having the pleasure of being in the company of a couple who demonstrates what marriage is all about. Kindness, encouragement, love, laughter, support, and passion. As a wedding shoot this made the experience so much more meaningful and romantic! They are such a team and a joy to observe and be in the company of. Within minutes of meeting them their love for each other, and the art that they create together, was evident. It was an honour to work with them both! Our guests absolutely fell in love with this duo as well - not just the impressive photos that they create but also just the warmth that they bring. They were genuinely family at our wedding!read more

I wanted my proposal to be great, something we both wouldn’t forget and I could share with our kids later on. I had never been to Banff, let alone Canada, so I was really nervous of things not going the way I wanted, but there was Shirleen to the rescue!! She was very helpful helping me chose a great place and was very accommodating to our requests. I cannot imagine a better proposal experience that the one we had with Shirleen and Kaitlyn!! Thank you sooo much guys.read more

Thank you Shirleen and Troy! We had a Pilates photo shoot to get ready for my studio opening in NB and it was flawless. They captured a variety of shots that are perfect for my website and other marketing material. From the moment I asked Shirleen if she would take my photos she was all in! Full of ideas but also accepting of mine. Save yourself some time, no matter what the occasion you need photographed, call Shirleen today; she’s professional, kind and funny. I’m grateful that she made time for my shoot. I promise to book with more notice next time :) I can’t thank you enough, I’ll be using your photos for years to come.read more

Shirleen and Troy are friendly, down-to-earth, and caring professionals. They flew to Cayo Santa Maria, Cuba, to shoot our destination wedding; we couldn't be happier with our choice. After meeting with many photographers, it was their professionalism coupled with their warm personalities that immediately sold us. We didn't have to worry about posing or getting creative shots or anything at all! We had so much fun with them! We knew that they are amazing at what they do and we fully trusted them. Our images are absolutely gorgeous. They are unique, fun and sexy all at once. We love the story that they created of our wedding day, providing many photos every step of the way. Our family and friends absolutely loved Shirleen and Troy. We are fortunate to say that we consider them friends. Our wedding experience would not have been complete or as perfect without them! I highly recommend Burnett Photography!read more

We knew that when we started planning our wedding four months out that our choice of photographer was going to be one of the most important decisions we would make, especially as we were planning an immediate family-only elopement and wanted to have our day captured in full to be able to share with our friends and family members. It was the romantic fairytale-style of Shirleen and Troy’s photography that encouraged us to contact Burnett Photography to capture our day. Over the next few months, Shirleen was an invaluable wedding planning resource for us, providing us with hair stylist and makeup artist recommendations and answering all of our questions! During the early days of planning, we had reached out to our top choice for marriage officiant and had been turned down; Shirleen made a personal phone call ,and he opened up his availability for us! It’s good to have friends in high places! However, the fondant on the cake for us was that a few days before we met with Shirleen and Troy to look over albums and get to know each other, Matt and I found out we were expecting. The timing was perfect and we told Shirleen and Troy that we wanted to announce our news to everyone during family photos following the ceremony! They loved the idea and we had so much fun brainstorming how to make this happen. On the big day, we felt surprisingly comfortable in front of the camera; there was so much laughter and joking that it felt like we were hanging out with old friends. Our big reveal was a huge surprise for everyone and we are so grateful that we were able to capture everyone’s reactions on film and not only be able to relive that moment, but to share it with our friends and soon, with our little one :) The morning after our wedding we woke up to some great teaser photos, which was a wonderful touch. We received most of our photos within 3 weeks and over the next week we received the rest, including a video compilation and a fun blog. We have friends who’ve had to wait for 3 months to receive their photos back, so getting them back in 3 weeks was unexpected and so appreciated! Thank-you for making our wedding day unforgettable!read more

Shirleen has been taking our family photos since my daughter was a baby. (She is now 9 yo) I live in Edmonton and try to go down to Banff at least once a year to have a portrait session. At first I thought she was a bit on the expensive side, but I’ve come to realize that the price I pay is insignificant to the beautiful work she creates year after year for me. The portraits hang all over my house and I love them. I can stare at them forever. Talent aside, Shirleen is one of those easy going people that can connect with anybody. She makes you feel at home and you kind of forget that your having your pictures taken because your laughing and having fun. My daughter really looks forward to seeing her. She makes us feel pampered and loved and that is priceless to us.read more

Amazing, creative, professional photos with great lighting and gorgeous texture. Very quick delivery of the final product - 24 hours after the event, in an easily accessible manner and ready to use (and there were a couple of hundreds of pics). Shirleen and her team are friendly, doing their job smoothly and non obtrusively. She's always smiling so people feel comfortable in front of her camera. Excellent experience !read more

We had planned to meet with a couple of different photographers before choosing the Burnett's. We met with them in their home in Canmore and didn't need to meet with anyone else - they were the ones. Our wedding was small - parents and immediate family - but that didn't mean the wedding was any less deserving of their full attention. The professionalism of Shirleen and Troy was excellent - they made my bride and me feel extremely comfortable - which I will admit is a challenge as I hate having my photo taken. We had a couple of shots I really wanted to try and get - and they were excellent in accommodating us. They became part of the wedding and we invited them to stay and join us for the small dinner in wonderful Lake Louise historic train station. I would recommend Troy and Shirleen to anyone looking for the nicest wedding photographers with an eye for excellence.read more

Shirleen photographed a very large artwork that had already been installed. I n my clients home. It was 18 ft long and had a lot of light shining on it. I called Shirleen and asked her if she would tackle the job. She came to the home and set up and managed to capture all the colour and texture of the work as well as include my clients in the photo shoot! I received the photos immediately and in time for a promotion for my studio!! Thank you Shirleen!! Woman of talent and humour!!read more
