Wedding Packages

A photo isn’t just a complicated physical interaction of light through a lens. It’s not just a photographers idea of what angle and pose looks best. It is a moment in time, frozen and captured. It is an eternal memory and a glimpse into the past. It is what your children will one day look at to help stitch together the story of their parents journey. Like your love for one another, a photo can last forever. Having the right person to capture these moments, means the difference between a seamless day where you are allowed to be yourselves or a day where the stresses of looking perfect, and getting the “right shot” are at the fore front of your conscience. The most important trait of a good wedding photographer is not just their ability to capture a moment, but their ability to let those moments transpire in an organic way. When the memories fade and all you have left are your wedding photos, you will want to look back through your own beautifully raw, genuine and unique story.

  • AN EASY, INTENTIONAL ELOPEMENT EXPERIENCE THAT FEELS LIKE YOU.

    Ever feel like a full blown wedding just isn’t for you? If thinking of your wedding day gives you more anxiety and stress more than anything else, this may be a good option! I made this package with YOU in mind. No planning, no family drama, no constant search for vendors, no production or entertaining 100’s of guests all day, and NO strict timeline. All of the vendors that will help you make your day perfect are included and depending on how you envision it, I have tons of locations and ideas to brainstorm with you!

Imagine choosing your favourite place in the world and having your wedding experience on top of that? Can you tell I am a traveller at heart?

  • IF I CAN GET THERE BY FOOT, TRAIN, BOAT, PLANE… YOU GET THE POINT - I’M ALL FOR IT!

    Elopements are something I hold so close to my heart. They are extremely intimate and are for anyone who feels the big wedding just doesn’t feel like a representation of who they are. There are no rules to Eloping, that is the beauty of it! Whether you want your parents there or a few close friends, the freedom of eloping leaves so much room to get married in your own unique way. Most people think it is just a Ceremony but there is SO much more to my Elopement Packages. Just because you aren’t doing things traditionally, doesn’t mean you don’t deserve to have your story documented. From getting ready non traditionally, to eating a pizza after the ceremony, I will be there to make sure everything is captured and I will come with some pretty cool ideas too!

    My Adventure Session was created after realizing how many of my couples wanted more of a personalized experience for their Engagement Session or Lifestyle Shoot.

That can be a hike, camping, canoe trip, CNE visit or visiting your favourite brewery together. Anything goes over here. :)

"A day in the life"

The purest and truest form of connection is what I am here for with my documentary style family session. I want to know what you love to eat together, how you interact, what your love language is and what your day to day life looks like. These are the ones your kids will look back on and hold closest to their heart. They will dissect every photo, from what they were doing to what your furniture looked like. A documentary approach is a must when it comes to “A day in the life” family sessions. You will get tons of guidance but ultimately this is a chance to document your family in the most authentic way possible.

WHATS INCLUDED?

FULL DAY COVERAGE

UNLIMITED PHOTOS

GUIDANCE ON ACTIVITIES AND PREPERATION

FULL GALLERY OF FULLY EDITED, HIGH RES PHOTOS

$1300+HST

 The Experience

 

Have you had a chance to read about what to expect? It is so important for you to know exactly what you can expect from me and to also get to know each other a little. The day you commit your life to someone is one of the most important milestones of your life, and I don’t take that lightly.. therefore, making sure you “click” with your photographer is just as important as liking their photos. Trust me on this one, we will be spending a lot of time together through communication from the very beginning to even after all is said and done, so lets make sure we are the perfect fit!
