hello.
I’m Ranelle - Echo Life Co founder, photographer, pom pom artisan, wife, and mama of three. Calgary, Alberta, Canada is my home.
Born and raised in Alberta, my early adult years took me to Ottawa, Ontario. There I met, fell in love, and married my steadfast husband Doug. I also worked in federal politics. Then - pivot! We left Ottawa, moved home to Alberta, had our three sweet boys, and took over the family's hotel business as managers and operators. PHEW! Such a blessed whirlwind that planted the seeds for Echo Life Co.
Echo Life Co was born out of a passion to capture life's moments for our family and friends. Its name is inspired by my family's 3rd generation farming and ranching business, Echo Springs Ranch, in Southern Alberta, Canada. Now, I'm definitely not your typical farm girl (hello fear of animals!). But, I learned the traits of hard work, dedication, and sacrifice from growing up on the farm. Traits that helped me build this business.
I’m honoured that you have taken time to explore the site. Here you’ll find life, love, and joy captured uniquely. You'll also discover whimsical and timeless decor for all of life's occasions.
Now, go, look, and be inspired!
Ranelle
