  • Thanks so much for considering me to be your photographer for this beautiful moment in your love story! Here’s an overview of what your Surprise Proposal/Engagement Photography plan would entail:

    Planning / Support: I always make every effort to provide reliable communication with unlimited emails, phone calls, texts, video calls to the degree that you have the peace of mind that everything will go to plan! This is proven practice for me in assuring that my clients have a great experience, feel fully supported, and receive beautiful photos. :-)

    Proposal/Engagement Session: I will document the proposal from start to finish as a documentary storytelling collection. The engagement session will be an easygoing walk and shoot, wherever you like in proximity to the proposal spot. We can plan this all in advance. Easy. This session is purely to celebrate you as a couple, the joy of your engagement, with less emphasis on posing, but prioritising interactive candid captures that feel natural to you, together. 

    Gift | Slideshow: You will also receive a Slideshow of photo highlights with music (3-4 min.) from the proposal/engagement session. Before receiving your invitation to view the full online gallery, you will receive an invitation to view the slideshow. The slideshow is always nostalgic and heartwarming to experience! 

    Photos: You will receive a complete collection of high res. colour & B&W digitals (.jpg) from the session. This is typically an average of 75-100 documentary photos. Every photo you receive is artfully edited/retouched by me. 

    Delivery: You will receive the complete collection of photos, including the slideshow by direct download from your personal online viewing gallery, within a week or so (depending on my workload) from the date of your proposal. Previews of highlights from the session are typically available within 24-48 hrs, since most couples are excited to share the news with their loved ones asap! 

    Bonus: Your online gallery also includes the convenience of a print shop that offers a wide variety of print products of professional quality and fast turnaround. You can request the currency to be set in CAD or USD and linked to a lab in either country, whichever is ideal for you with reliable quality and fast turnaround.

    Fee: $1300 CAD + QC taxes

    A signed contract, and a non-refundable 50% initial payment are needed to secure the date.

    * Ask about the Details add-on option.

  • PHOTOS: Includes 5 high res. retouched digitals (.jpg); Additional Photos: $75 per high res. retouched digital photo (.jpg)

    CLOTHING: 2 Outfit changes, optional.

    LOCATION: In studio, or on location

    DELIVERY: View your collection in a professional online gallery to make your photo selection; Direct download.

    *Ask about group rates.

    INDIVIDUAL SESSION FEE: $395 CAD + QC taxes [1 hr.]

    *Ask about on site MUA service as an add-on.

FAQs

  • I offer photography coverage, exclusively. However, I know a number of super talented videographers, so I’d be happy to connect you with any other vendors you’d like to hire, once you’re date is secured on the calendar. ;-)

  • Typically, this is just a good idea! Recommended for when groom preparation is at a different location from bride preparation, and also cocktail hour, if you’d like to schedule your couple session following the ceremony.

    Overall, an associate photographer contributes a great variety of camera viewpoints during the ceremony, candid captures, and guest reactions that enrich the narrative element of your wedding photo collection.

    I always hire a professional photographer whose style is aligned with mine for visual continuity in your photos. A minimum 3-5 hrs of associate photography support is ideal, depending on the size of your event.

  • YES! Film digitals + prints are now available as a customized add-on option on all of our documentary wedding photography plans.

  • Yes, please let me know what you have in mind, and we can customize a plan that suits your photography needs.

  • Yes! I’d be happy to document your lifestyle event, be it an engagement party, anniversary party, birthday party, etc. Please tell me how many hours, the location, and what you’d like me to capture. Would be an honour to preserve the memory for you and yours.

  • Yes, absolutely! For weddings, you’ll receive previews (posted on IG, unless you’d prefer otherwise) within a few days to a week, depending on my workload. For proposals, you’ll receive previews within 24-48 hrs. I know how excited you’ll be to make your announcement!

  • You can download your complete gallery of images (and slideshow, if applicable) from your personal online gallery. I’ll provide you with a 1 min. tutorial link that shows you how easy it is to download.
