Editorial & Portraits
Having accumulated extensive experience in advertising visual effects for brands like Pepsi, Adidas, Volvo, but also for renowed movies like Top Gun 2, Ant Man ,Black Panther, Watchmen HBO series, etc, I've honed a unique skill set in creating fashion imagery adapted to Hollywood standards, with the authenticity of the cinematic storytelling that stays in people’s minds for years.
Moreover, my Art Direction Certification and enthusiasm for outstanding Hero Businesses pushes me toward collaborations with different fashion studios and brands. When working with them I apply the same tacticts and standarts I’ve learned over the years while working with some of the biggest Holywood Visual Effects Studios.
FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
-
Do we need to know how to pose?
Not at all. That’s my superpower - I can guide anyone with simple, natural actions that translate into chic, editorial frames & never stiff poses. Most of my couples say they felt effortless and confident, even if they’d never been in front of a camera.
-
When will we see our photos?
You’ll receive a highlight gallery within days. Engagement and portrait sessions are delivered in 3–4 weeks. Wedding galleries are delivered within 8–16 weeks, depending on the season. Every image is carefully curated for natural elegance, true-to-color tones , retouches and a timeless feel : this artistry takes time, and it’s worth the wait.
-
What if something unexpected happens?
Your peace of mind is my priority. I always arrive with backup equipment and also have a trusted network of photographers worldwide who share my editorial style. No matter what unfolds, your memories are safeguarded.
-
Do you travel for weddings, and is travel included in the proposal?
Yes. I travel between Montréal & Toronto, Ottawa, Mexico & Europe. Travel and accommodations are seamlessly included in your proposal with nothing hidden. You don’t need to worry about logistics , I handle every detail with meticulous planning, from transport to backup contingencies, so you can stay fully focused on celebrating.
-
Do you offer video services?
Yes , for couples who’d love a touch of motion, I offer a 1–2 minute Cinematic Trailer as an add-on, created with a trusted videographer partner and focused on candid, handheld + gimbal +drone moments throughout the day. It’s an editorial highlight rather than full documentary coverage (no full ceremony/speeches edit). If you’re dreaming of a longer film, I’ll happily recommend specialist videographers after you’ve booked your photography collection.
-
How many weddings do you take each year?
I intentionally accept a limited number of 15-20 weddings per year so I can pour my full creative energy into each couple’s story. This ensures your day receives the focus and artistry it deserves.
-
Do you create albums or heirlooms?
Yes. Most couples invest in handcrafted albums or fine-art print collections. I personally design each one, and it’s effortless to order through your personalized gallery platform. These pieces are made to live beautifully now and become family treasures for generations.
-
What is the investment for wedding photography?
Every wedding is genuinely unique, which is why I create tailored collections based on your vision, location, and coverage needs. Signature MTL & QC wedding experiences begin at $3,900, and most couples invest between $4,500–$7,000, depending on coverage, setting (Montréal, Toronto or beyond), and the heirloom pieces we create together. Once I learn more about your celebration, I’ll recommend a collection designed specifically for you.
-
How do we book and secure our date?
To officially reserve your date, I require a signed photography agreement and a 30% retainer (the remaining balance is due X days before the wedding).
Everything is handled online , contract, invoice and payments , so the process is simple and takes just a few minutes once you’re ready. -
How do you handle multicultural weddings where not everyone speaks the same language?
Clear communication is key to an effortless experience. I speak several languages fluently (English, French, Romanian, Russian & a bit of Spanish) , which allows me to put guests at ease, direct group portraits with confidence, and make sure everyone feels seen and included. This way, you can fully immerse yourself in the celebration while knowing your family is cared for and your legacy is beautifully documented.
