[Your Name] Wedding Photography

Toronto · Ontario · Available for travel

Weddings,
photographed
quietly.

I photograph the whole day — not a list of moments. The ten minutes before the ceremony when nobody is watching, the way your grandmother holds your face, the last twenty minutes of light on the water. Nothing staged beyond what you'd do anyway.

Selected work

A handful of recent weddings, chosen because of how the day felt rather than how it looked. Every gallery below is a full day, start to finish — the getting ready, the ceremony, dinner, and whatever happens after the band starts.

[Venue], Toronto — [Month Year]

A backyard ceremony in the west end, forty guests, and a storm that arrived exactly at dinner.

[Venue] — [Month Year]

Candlelight only, no overhead lights, and a first dance that went on for eleven minutes.

Two families, two languages, one very long table.

Full galleries are shared privately with each couple. If you'd like to see a complete wedding from start to finish, ask and I'll send one over.

How I work

Most of what makes a wedding photograph good happens before the shutter. Here's what the day actually looks like from my side of it.

  1. We talk first

    A call or a coffee, no obligation. I want to know how you met, who's coming, what part of the day you're nervous about, and whether you'd rather I be invisible or in the middle of it. That conversation shapes everything after.

  2. We plan the light, not the shots

    I'll ask about your timeline and your venue's windows. If your ceremony is at 4pm in November, we should talk about that now rather than on the day. I'll flag anything worth moving and leave the rest alone.

  3. I arrive early and stay late

    Coverage starts while you're still getting ready and ends when the dancing does — or when you tell me to go home. There's no hour count I'm watching. The good photographs are usually in the parts of the day nobody scheduled.

  4. You get the whole day, edited

    Every image is colour-graded by hand. No batch presets, no filters. You'll receive a private online gallery you can share with family, plus high-resolution files and print rights.

Coverage

Three ways to book. All of them include a pre-wedding call, hand-edited images, and a private gallery. Prices are on request — every wedding is a different length of day.

Half day

For small ceremonies and elopements

Six hours of coverage, timed around your ceremony and the portraits after it. Ideal for city hall, a backyard, or a restaurant dinner with thirty people. You'll end up with roughly 300 finished images.

Full day

The one most couples book

Ten to twelve hours, from getting ready through the last song. Two photographers if your guest count is over 120 or you want both sides of the morning covered. Roughly 700 finished images.

Multi-day

For weddings that run across a weekend

Welcome dinner, ceremony, and the day after. Common for destination weddings and for couples with family flying in from several places. Quoted per event.

Travel within the GTA is included. Elsewhere in Ontario, and anywhere with an airport, is quoted at cost — I'd rather travel than turn down a good wedding.

About

Portrait photograph of the photographer

I'm [Your Name], a wedding photographer based in Toronto. I've been photographing weddings for [number] years, mostly in Ontario and occasionally much further away.

Before this I [what you did before photography]. It taught me to pay attention to what people do when they think no one is looking, which turns out to be the whole job.

My work leans dark and quiet — I like low light, deep shadows, and the way a room looks after the sun goes down. If you're picturing bright, airy, and evenly lit, I'm probably not your photographer, and that's genuinely fine.

When I'm not working I'm [something true about you].

Questions

The five things couples ask me most, usually on the first call. If yours isn't here, ask it in the form below and I'll answer it properly.

How far in advance should we book?

Most couples book nine to fourteen months out, and Saturdays in September and October go first. That said, I hold a few dates back each year for shorter timelines — if your wedding is in three months, ask anyway. The worst I can say is that I'm already taken.

Do you travel outside Toronto?

Yes, constantly. Travel inside the GTA is included in every collection. Elsewhere in Ontario is quoted at cost — mileage, and a hotel if the day runs late. Anywhere with an airport is fair game too; I've photographed weddings across Canada and [regions you've travelled to]. Destination weddings are quoted per event, so tell me where and I'll work it out.

We're awkward in front of a camera. Is that a problem?

It's the normal state of things. Most of the day I'm photographing what's already happening rather than directing you, so there's very little to be awkward about. For the handful of portraits we do make time for, I'll give you something to do with your hands and somewhere to look, and we'll keep it short. Twenty minutes, usually right after the ceremony while everyone's still buzzing.

How long until we see the photographs?

A short preview — twenty or so images — lands within [number] days, which is usually enough to post something while it still feels recent. The full gallery takes [number] weeks, because every image is graded by hand rather than run through a preset. If you need something sooner for a thank-you card or an announcement, say so and I'll prioritise it.

Can we print the photographs, and who owns them?

You receive high-resolution files with print rights, so you can print as much as you like, anywhere you like, forever — no watermarks and no ordering through me. I keep the copyright and ask only that you don't sell the images or hand them to a vendor as their own work. If a magazine or blog wants to run them, I'll handle that side of it.

Still deciding? Send me your date and venue and I'll tell you honestly whether I'm the right photographer for your day.

Let's talk

Tell me your date and your venue — even if the venue isn't booked yet. I take a limited number of weddings each year so I can give each one the attention it needs.
