Memories to relive and relove
Photography is my passion, and having a creative soul is something I am so thankful for. I truly believe that there is beauty in every thing, and every moment.
It would be an honour to serve you, and capture your next milestone, special moment or event so that you can relive the moments through photographs.

Step Four
Timeline Creation:
As a CAPM certified Project manager, you can rest assured that your timeline planning will be a breeze! We will schedule more than enough time to get the classic and timeless photographs, along with plenty of time for candid, real, authentic moments throughout your day - so it is exclusively you, and doesn't feel like a day long photoshoot.
I will also send over a pre-wedding questionnaire to ensure all photo combinations you want captured are listed. Pinterest and mood boards are always welcomed to be shared to ensure we get those must have shots you have dreamed of.

Step Five
Following your wedding day, you will receive a selection of sneak peek photos to relive the beautiful moments captured. Your complete gallery will be delivered to you within 6-8 weeks after your wedding day.
Should you choose to include any prints or a fine art album in your package, design services are free of charge! You select your images, and leave the rest to me! Of course you will have the opportunity to review the design and request any revisions prior to sending to print.
My commitment is to create timeless and elegant photographs that authentically capture the essence of your wedding day. As your photographer, you can trust me to deliver images that will be cherished for generations to come.
Chantel totally exceeded our expectations of how we imagined our photos would look and we couldn’t be happier with all of them!

Frequently asked questions
How many images will I receive?
I promise to deliver at least 50-75 images per hour of service. I strive to deliver quality over quantity, meaning you can expect to see a variety of high quality images delivered in your gallery: mainly colour images, with a handful of black and white images sprinkled in as well. You may see variations of the same pose, but not duplicates of the same pose over and over.

How many images will I receive?
Absolutely! I have a series of guided poses and prompts I use for weddings, engagements and family sessions. I am happy to provide direction on posing but also like to allow for natural, candid moments to unfold throughout our session together. Walking shots, or incorporating guided movement is a great way to get anyone camera shy a break from looking directly at the camera.
