Some wedding days go exactly according to plan… and some give you rain, storm clouds, a boat, fishing off the dock, a rainbow and one hell of a party.

Mike & Kayla’s wedding was the latter. They embraced every bit of their day. They laughed through the rain, hopped on a boat to fish in their wedding clothes, celebrated with the people they love most, and somehow Mother Nature even showed up with a rainbow at exactly the right moment.

It was beautiful, completely authentic to them, and SO much fun to photograph.

Mike & Kayla, thank you for trusting us to document such an incredible day. It was truly an honour to be there for all of it. Congratulations to you both.

Now booking 2027 & 2028 weddings.

Some love stories aren’t meant to be photographed just once.

We’ve had the privilege of documenting Chloee & Benoit’s love story for a few years now, and there’s something so special about being invited back to capture another chapter.

This time it was a rowboat, a whole lot of flowers, a little lace and two people who made our job incredibly easy.

Chloe & Benoit, thank you for continuing to trust us with your memories. There really is no greater compliment than a client who comes back.

There’s something about photographing a family right before it grows.

Rebecca came to us for maternity photos, but what we captured was so much more… little hands on Mom’s belly, belly laughs, Dad being Dad, and this family exactly as they are right now.

These are the photos that become more valuable with time.

Family sessions are $199 + HST and include all of your strongest images. We guarantee a minimum of 20, but if we love it, you get it. No choosing favourites. No paying extra for additional images.

If you’ve been putting off family photos, this is your sign.

Andre + Jasmine

Their intimate Arboretum elopement was exactly that… intimate, emotional, and completely centred around the people who mattered most.

With just their children and a few close family members there, the day felt incredibly personal. There were quiet moments, big laughs, little bits of chaos, and so much love woven through all of it.

That’s what we love about elopements. They don’t have to be big to be meaningful, and they don’t have to look like anyone else’s wedding to be worth documenting beautifully.

Thank you Andre & Jasmine for allowing us to capture your special and most cherished moments.

We’re now booking 2027 weddings and elopements, with photography starting at $250/hour. Coverage is fully customizable so you can build exactly what works for your day.

Your wedding. Your people. Your story.

Some love stories feel like they were written in the stars, and Amata and Dryden’s wedding day was one of them.

Surrounded by the beauty of Oak & Pines gorgeous venue, these two promised forever in a day filled with heartfelt moments, joyful laughter, and the kind of love you could feel in every room.

From the breathtaking florals to every carefully chosen detail, the entire celebration was effortlessly beautiful, but nothing compared to the way Amata and Dryden looked at one another.

Congratulations to the newlyweds. May this be the beginning of a lifetime filled with adventure, laughter, and a love that only grows stronger with every passing year.

Last fall, we wandered through the autumn colours with Amata & Dryden to capture their engagement photos.

Just over a week ago, we had the incredible honour of capturing them again as they said “I do.”

One of the greatest privileges of what we do is getting to witness these milestones unfold, from the excitement of an engagement session to the joy, happy tears, and celebration of a wedding day.

Their wedding was absolutely beautiful, filled with so much love, laughter, and the kind of moments that remind us why we love this job so much.

Their sneak peeks have already been delivered, and we are counting down the days until we can share more from their wedding gallery.

Thank you, Amata & Dryden, for trusting us to tell your story. We are so grateful to have been a small part of such an important chapter in your lives.
