I am a wedding photographer based in Toronto, Canada serving joyful couples! My goal is to tell your love story by capturing the emotions of love and laughter on your wedding day, through an ELEVATED EXPERIENCE you will never forget!

I studied Computer Science in school and planned to be a software developer.  While in university, I bought a my first camera to take photos of my travels and fun times with friends, and I immediately fell in love with photography. I just couldn't put my camera down! I started taking photography classes in the evenings (after my Computer Science classes during the day), and began posting photos I was taking on my instagram. One of my sweet friends who got engaged asked me to photograph her engagement party and that's when I knew I wanted to be a professional wedding photographer!

With a 9-5 job in computer science and running a wedding photography business in the evenings and weekends, I realized that my heart was with photography. I took a leap of faith and quit my job to become a full time wedding photographer. I haven't looked back since!

Wedding Photography for the Joyful Couple through an Elevated Experience

In my spare time, you'll find me picking up starbucks (grande soy matcha latte pls) or dropping into a yoga class. My husband calls me 'basic'.

The Fun Facts!

I'm ready! Let's get in touch!

Photography is not just about taking photos. It's about celebrating and documenting this deeply personal and exciting journey that you and your fiancé are embarking on! It's important to choose a photographer who's vision and eye you fully trust to capture your relationship and dynamic. I aim to provide an ELEVATED EXPERIENCE to my couples so that they can focus on being present and enjoying the entire wedding planning process, knowing that I have the photography aspect taken care of.

I love being there to help my clients through every step of the wedding photography process. I assist my clients with styling their engagement session to choose flattering and elegant outfits and locations that truly represent them as a couple. During our engagement session I coach my couples with posing so they can be comfortable and have fun in front of the camera. This gets them prepped and ready to be photographed again on their wedding day! During the wedding planning process I assist my couples with putting together a photography-friendly wedding day timeline with a portrait location that they love, and I always make sure they receive their photos in a timely manner after their wedding!

My favourite part of what I do is getting to know my couples on a personal level! I like learning about the story of how my couples met and getting to know their personalities. This will help me make their images more personal to them! I've found the more comfortable my couples feel with me, the more natural they look in their photos!
