Get In Touch

Thank you for making it this far on my website. If you’re inquiring about a wedding, please email me and include a few details about yourselves and the date. I would also love it if you included a story or a link to something you find beautiful so I can get to know you a little bit better. I look forward to chatting!

FAQ

I’m a candid documentary photographer. I love beautiful light and gentle moments. I try to remain as unobtrusive as possible but I’m very much there to help if we can’t find one of your siblings during family portraits on your wedding day!

HOW WOULD YOU DESCRIBE YOUR STYLE?

For most weddings, I typically work by myself. I have documented over 300 weddings on my own and I don’t feel that a second shooter is usually necessary. However, I have a list of very talented second photographers in Ontario & Nova Scotia should you require one.

DO YOU WORK WITH A SECOND PHOTOGRAPHER?

I would love for you to be able to look through a set of images that tell the story of your wedding day without being distracted by awkward in-between shots. For that reason, I do not provide you with every image I shoot. I will often have duplicate photos on either side of the perfect moment. I also occasionally take a photo that’s just terrible, so I’ll leave those out! What I do provide is a set of edited high-resolution files. Each file has been fine-tuned to a level that I am proud to give you.

DO YOU PROVIDE EVERY IMAGE YOU PHOTOGRAPH?

I do! I hold both Canadian and British Passports which gives me access to quite a few countries. If I can't shoot in your country, then I have a worldwide network of friends who are photographers and I can hopefully refer someone who does.

DO YOU photograph DESTINATION WEDDINGS?

I love to know who or what is most important to you at your wedding. I find what makes a wedding special is the natural interactions that occur between friends, family and the couple. I spend wedding days constantly searching for those little moments and my aim is to give you a set of images that tell a story so you can remember your day as it unfolded for years to come. I prefer to work this way rather than staging a predetermined list of moments.

CAN I GIVE YOU A LIST OF PHOTOS TO capture?

My half day wedding package starts at 3200+HST for 4 hours of coverage by me within Nova Scotia. Take a look at my other packages & extras here. If you are planning to do something unique or outside of Nova Scotia, let me know and I will create a custom package for you.
