I was recently invited to host engagement photoshoots at the beautiful Riverview Estate – a new wedding venue in Norwich, Ontario.  I met with the lovely Vanessa and Tyler in the early evening and we walked the grounds capturing beautiful photos and lots of laughs!

Guelph Arboretum Micro-Wedding Photography

Brook and Sam were such a wonderful couple to work with!  Like so many of our couples over the past year, ever-changing covid restrictions forced Brook and Sam to change their plans quite a few times.  In the weeks leading up to their big day, they decided on a photoshoot at the beautiful University of Guelph Arboretum and the Goldie Mill Ruins.  We then proceeded to Royal City Park for their intimate ceremony with their immediate family, followed by a few more photos at Eramosa River Trail lattice covered bridge.

It was a beautiful sunny day and I was thrilled to spend it capturing this beautiful couples’ love for one another!

“Ema was great to work with! She made the experience fun and memorable. Her photos were impressive too!” – Brook

Cambridge Ontario Micro / Mini Wedding

Ailar and Cody’s beautiful Langdon Hall micro-wedding was just lovely.  Like so many couples, Ailar and Cody had to go with the flow due to shifting covid measures, and ultimately they were happy to opt for a mini-wedding with their closest family and friends.

We started their big day with their couples’ photoshoot on the beautiful Langdon Hall property, followed by family photos, and their ceremony and reception in Colonel Langdon’s room and conservatory.  Ailar’s mum prepared a beautiful Sofreh Aghd – an elaborate “wedding table” traditional to Persian culture – for their big day.  Like the couple, it was lovely!

It was a perfect day spent laughing with Ailar and Cody. I wish them nothing but the best in their life together!


Guelph Arboretum Micro Wedding | Katlyn + Jarrett

Katlyn + Jarrett's Micro-Wedding

Guelph Arboretum Micro Wedding

Like many couples, Katlyn and Jarrett found themselves rescheduling their wedding in 2020 due to the covid-19 pandemic, to 2021. Unfortunately due to ongoing lockdowns, Katlyn and Jarrett were not able to have a large wedding, and instead opted for a “micro-wedding” with their closest family and friends.  Their lovely wedding ceremony took place at Royal City Mission in Guelph, with photography at the University of Guelph Arboretum and a friend’s beautiful farm!

I had a wonderful time with this great couple and their family and friends!

“Ema was such an amazing professional to work with! She was easy going, gave excellent direction and captured some truly beautiful moments of our special day that will be precious keepsakes forever. She knows her stuff and works effectively and efficiently and took an eager interest in our story to help deliver such beautiful results.” – Katlyn

Arman and Harir were married earlier in the year, however due to covid-19 lockdowns, they weren’t able to have a photoshoot as part of their elopement. I was honoured to be asked to be their photographer for their belated wedding day photoshoot!  I love these images that we captured at Victoria Park in Kitchener.

Rebel Creek Golf Club Wedding Photography | Jaana + Briana

Jaana & Briana's Wedding

Rebel Creek Golf Club Wedding Photography

Jaana and I first met nearly 15 years ago when we both worked at a plant nursery. Thanks to the beauty of social media, we had been in each others’ “circle” ever since – so I was excited when she and her fiancée Briana reached out to me for their engagement and wedding photography!  As it turned out, Briana was also the cousin of another client of mine, whose wedding photos she had seen some years earlier as well. Another serendipitous small world moment which are quite plentiful in my life!

Jaana and Briana’s beautiful wedding took place at Rebel Creek Golf Club in Petersburg.  We started the day with preparation photography of both Briana and Jaana’s respective sides, then met at Rebel Creek for an emotional first look. Jaana’s emotion when seeing Briana in her wedding dress was so touching! After some bridal party photography, Jaana and Briana tied the knot during a lovely ceremony.

The day was truly perfect and I am honoured to have spent the day capturing Jaana and Briana’s memories!


Stratford Elopement Photography | Mackenzie + Andrew

Mackenzie & Andrew's Elopement

Like many couples, Mackenzie and Andrew found themselves planning a wedding during the COVID pandemic this year.  It’s certainly been an unprecedented year for many industries, and the wedding industry has not been exempt from the effects of coronavirus.

Instead of throwing a big event, Mackenzie and Andrew opted for a smaller more intimate ceremony at the Stratford Shakespearean Gardens with their bubble and their closest family and friends.  I’ve been to these beautiful well-manicured gardens before, and was excited to photograph them there as well!

We started with their bride & groom photoshoot around the gardens, and then proceeded to the ceremony which was live-streamed to their loved ones abroad.  These two are HILARIOUS – Instead of rings, they exchanged their baby girl during the ceremony!  I’ve photographed more weddings than I can count and this was not something I’d seen before – the crowd burst into laughter (myself included).

It was truly a special day and I am honoured to have captured it for Mackenzie and Andrew, and their family and friends!

Timea & Jonathan's Engagement

Colourful Autumn Engagement Photography

Timea and Jonathan wanted a colour autumn photoshoot to celebrate their engagement! I recommended the University of Guelph Arboretum which is a go-to location for photography of all kinds, especially when the autumn colours begin to show.

It was actually a misty, rainy day and I was worried that we would have to reschedule our session – but thankfully the rain stopped and we were able to have our photoshoot as planned. The park was ablaze in gorgeous colour and there were countless locations to choose from for photos! We had lots of laughs and captured beautiful photos in the process. I can’t wait for their wedding day in May!


Autumn Farm Engagement Photography | Stephanie + Trevor

Stephanie & Trevor's' Engagement

Autumn Farm Engagement Photography

Though 2020 has been a bit of an odd year (to say the least), it’s been lovely to be able to work with couples on numerous engagement sessions, elopements, and smaller weddings. And it’s always nice for me to be able to hit the road and photograph couples in a new location!

I was excited to be invited to Stephanie and Trevor’s beautiful farmhouse property for these fall engagement photos. It was a cold day with a bit of rain, but we still made the absolute best of it!
