The Experience

If you're wondering what it's like to work with me, you can click here to read about client experiences or visit Google Reviews and my Facebook page. But first, I would also like to share my point of view with you and let you know what the experience is all about!

The style of photography, as well as the posing, is essential when choosing your photographer. I want the person behind the lens to be an important decision for you- someone who clicks with you, makes you feel comfortable, and someone whom you can trust. This is so important to me! From our first email exchange to our coffee date chatting about your wedding plans to the wedding day itself and to finally getting to relive the most magical day scrolling through your beautiful gallery, I want to give all my clients an exceptional and personal experience.

A wedding is made up of many small moments that might seem insignificant but, in reality, are momentous and meaningful. It is my mission to capture these small moments that I see throughout the day: your girls seeing you for the first time in your dress, the look you give your partner after signing your papers, and mom helping you fix your veil throughout the day. There are so many sweet moments on a wedding day, and I promise you that I will do my very best to capture them!

Not only am I capturing this incredible day, but I am also your person. Need a Kleenex, help to bustle or fluff your dress, fix your hair or someone to tell the boys to take their phones out of their pockets…I’m on it! I want to make your day as stress-free as possible.

I have been in your shoes, so I understand all the considerations in choosing a wedding photographer. I was recently searching for a photographer for my wedding day, and a few concerns came to mind: when I hug my Granny during the evening, will that be captured? Will I get candid shots with my best friends getting ready? Is my photographer going to make everyone feel comfortable in front of the camera? Will they get along with everyone?

I was also thinking about how invested my photographer is in my day- are they quick to reply to me and answer all my questions? Do I feel a connection with them? Are the photos edited in a consistent style? How do their photos make me feel? You want to be comfortable with your photographer and trust them 100%!

Editing

Editing is such an important part of a wedding photographer's job. I want my editing to be the same in all my photos: bright, contrasted and airy while keeping true to skin tones. I always make certain that nobody appears too overexposed.

I also love this part of my work as I can be creative in different ways. I look for any distractions in the photos, such as a lamppost, a red nose from the cold, a family member looking away during family photos, or a person in the background who shouldn't be there. I'm a pro at photoshop, so anything can be altered. From someone who grew up with horrible acne, I know that this is something you would prefer not to show in every photo. I got you! Any blemishes, acne, texture or redness can be tastefully edited.

Posing

While I will be candidly documenting your day and how it unfolds, there is still a lot of direction and posing involved. If you have 3 or 20 people in your wedding party, they need to be told what to do! I'm here to give them all the direction they need for fun, cute and candid photos. I love to give direction to my couples, so there is as much movement as possible, like asking them to hold hands running through a field, slow dance or give piggyback rides. This ensures there is zero awkwardness or stiffness in any photos. I can promise you that! The same applies to your engagement session (this is included in your wedding package and is a great opportunity to get comfortable in front of the camera). We can go to anyplace meaningful to you, such as your favourite coffee spot or pub. Wherever your session is, it will be all about you two and your love story!

There is truly nothing else I would rather be doing; I love my job with all my heart! Each year I get so excited for the wedding season and to get to meet and work with the most amazing couples. If you're ready to book your photographer, let's do this. I cannot wait to meet you!
