General
Our home is on the south shore of Nova Scotia, however we work almost anywhere your love brings us. We've worked in sandy and warm destinations all the way to Manitoba in the middle of winter. While we’re not exactly marketed as destination wedding photographers, it’s safe to assume we're open to travel.
Yes. If it wasn't obvious already, absolutely yes! We're queer, both of us, we love all types of love and if you can't get down with that then we're not a good fit anyhow. If you're community, or or an ally just looking to hire more queer wedding vendors, ask us for our queer wedding vendor guide.
We do not do body modification editing. “If it’ll be gone in two weeks, it’ll be gone in the photos.” is our tried and true approach to this ask. If there’s something you’re self conscious about we invite you to share it with us in advance so we can photograph you with that in mind.
If we had to categorize our style we’d say predominantly candid, documentary photography with approachable editorial vibes. We like to make people feel special and look amazing on their wedding day. The tools and approach we use is specific to each moment but we prioritize connection, so as much as our photography speaks for itself our customer service and attention to detail is the secret to our success.
WEDDING DAY
This is every photographer’s biggest fear, and because of this we have strong connections in our networks to refer work we’re unavailable for but also as a failsafe in emergencies like this. If we cannot fulfill our promise to you we will connect you with a replacement. If this isn’t possible we’d refund you entirely.
In the same way that there’s no two weddings alike, there are no two schedules alike. We have a few guiding principles to photography and timing; 1. You’re hiring us to tell a story, it’s your story so we need to learn what’s important to you and 2. We want you to experience your wedding day, not a photoshoot. During our pre-booking meeting we’ll get to know each other and from there we will be able to make a preliminary photography schedule that’ll capture the right amount of each part of your day.
Sometimes. During elopements and smaller weddings, or depending on your schedule, it doesn’t always make sense - but if you’re eating, it’s usually the best time for us to eat too. In our experience, what’s worked best for coverage and photo yield is being served early and when possible sitting with guests - this ensures coverage continues uninterrupted.
It varies - we use the right tool for the job at hand. We shoot primarily on professional quality Fuji cameras and we use different film stocks depending on the venue, climate and location. We have backup equipment on us and carry commercial business insurance. Cameras are just tools to do our job, it’s how we use those tools that counts.
Booking & Packages
Reach out using any of our contact forms and tell us about yourselves and include any confirmed information about your wedding. We'll send you a pricing guide that includes package recommendations that fit the coverage needs of your day. We always like to connect in a more personal way as an added step, telephone or video chat, to confirm it’s a good fit. Once we've all decided on a package there's a contract and a retainer, then our services are secured - we’re your wedding photographers!
Our retainer is $500 CDN, plus hst for every wedding package. We accept the retainer and a signed contract at the same time to reserve your wedding date in our calendar. If you’re booking a package with us that requires accommodations or travel your retainer will vary in congruence with the additional expenses.
We accept e-transfers, cash and can provide you with a secure payment link if you prefer to use a credit card.
Retainers are non-refundable, but we are human. Reach out to discuss the changes and we’ll do our best to reach an agreement. We will work with you to find an alternative date in our calendar and simply move the retainer to the new date. If we can’t find an agreeable date and are unable to rebook the original date the retainer is forfeited. Rescheduling is subject to current rates.
