FAQ - Frequently Asked Questions
Choosing a wedding photographer is one of the biggest decisions you'll make in your planning process, and it should feel like an informed one. Below are answers to the questions I hear most often from modern couples in Montreal, Ottawa, and throughout Canada. If something isn't covered here, my contact page is always open!
What is your photography style?
My style is cinematic and documentary, rooted in real moments, natural light, and honest emotion. I trained in film photography as part of my BFA, and that foundation shapes everything about how I work. The result is a wedding gallery that feels like a film: warm, immersive, and unmistakably yours. See the gallery.
Do you work with a second photographer?
Some packages include a second photographer and some do not! It depends on what's right for your day. Larger weddings with complex logistics, multiple venues, or big guest lists often benefit from a second shooter. We can talk through whether it makes sense for your day!
How much does wedding photography cost?
As a wedding photographer in Montreal, my average investment is $3,900. Packages vary depending on coverage hours, whether a second photographer is included, and whether an engagement session is part of your booking. Every package includes a custom engraved memory box with prints delivered alongside your digital gallery, because your photos should exist as something you can hold! Full pricing details are available on request. I'm happy to talk through what makes sense for your day.
How long until I receive my photos?
Your completed gallery will be delivered within 4 weeks of your wedding day. I’ve worked professionally as a post producer for years to create a quality rate that is significantly faster than the industry norm, without any compromise to the care and editing each image receives.
Do you photograph engagement sessions?
Yes, and I love them! Some packages include an engagement session, but I always recommend one. It's about spending time together with a camera before the biggest day of your life, so that on your wedding day, being photographed feels completely natural. Couples who do an engagement session are noticeably more relaxed and present on their wedding day.
Should we make a shot list or moodboard?
I photograph with a documentary approach, making shot lists an unnecessary part of the process! They are needed if you have any sort of extensive group portrait session so that I can organize your loved ones, or as a list of personally important moments you want to have captured. I notice the rest as it unfolds! I always encourage moodboards if they inspire you because they help to bring my vision closer to yours.
Where are you based and how far do you travel?
I'm based in Montreal, Quebec, and I serve couples across Montreal, Ottawa, and anywhere within a 3-hour drive of either city with no travel fee. For weddings beyond that radius, I'm available anywhere in Canada and internationally for destination weddings. Travel fees outside the covered region are reasonable and discussed upfront. Distance is never a reason not to reach out. Read more.
How far in advance should I book?
It varies more than you'd think! Some couples reach out a year and a half before their date, others a few months out. The most honest answer is: as soon as you think you want to work together. Peak summer and fall dates in Montreal and Ottawa fill, and I take on a limited number of weddings each year to make sure every couple gets my full attention. If your date is coming up soon, reach out anyway! I sometimes have short notice availability.
Do you photograph LGBTQIA+ weddings?
Absolutely. I welcome all couples and all ways of celebrating. Every couple should feel completely at ease in front of the camera on their wedding day, and creating that comfort for everyone is something I prioritize. View experiences.
What if I need to cancel or reschedule?
Life happens, and I understand that. Retainers are non-refundable, as they hold your date and take it off the market for other couples. However, if you need to reschedule your wedding date, I will do everything I can to accommodate the new date based on my availability.
How do you deliver the final photos?
You'll receive an online digital gallery with all of your images available to download, share, and print. Every package also includes a custom engraved memory box with a curated selection of prints! A complimentary keepsake so that you have something to hold from your day.
We want you to be our photographer! What happens after reaching out?
Wonderful! Finding the right wedding photographer in Montreal means feeling that their energy matches yours. I'll reply within 2 business days with a welcome email covering everything you need to know. From there we'll book a call to get to know each other and make sure we're a great fit. If we feel it, we'll move forward with a contract and a retainer to hold your date. After that, you can relax knowing your wedding photography is in good hands.
