DESTINATION WEDDING + ELOPEMENT PHOTOGRAPHER

LET'S ELOPE!

if you're thinking,

“Can we just run away and get married without all the stress?”

hi, yes, That’s exactly what I help couples do, and I’d love to help you too!

Let’s Make This Easy

Elopement planning is a lot.

BUT GUESS WHAT?

LET'S BE HONEST,

You don’t have to figure it out alone... 

And MOST TIMES not in a fun way.

from “Where do we elope?” to
“Holy heck, that was THE BEST DAY EVER!”

 I’ll guide you through the ENTIRE thing—

LET'S DO THIS!

She’s such a pleasure to work with, and I was blown away by how amazing she is with weddings!! We sat down and planned a timeline, she’s so knowledgeable about planning a smooth seamless day and stress free! When you book her for a wedding, you basically have a wedding planner!! I couldn’t have imagined planning my wedding without her, and not to mention the absolute beautiful magic she makes!

“She’s so knowledgeable about planning a smooth seamless day and stress free!"

FAYTH + MILES

hey, I'm Chantel (Chant for short)!

Hey there, adventurous souls! I’m Chantel—but you can call me Chant! I help couples elope without the chaos—by taking care of the logistics, timeline, permits, photo plan, and the million tiny details that tend to sneak up on people - whether it's in Ontario or on the other side of the world.

Oh, and I’ll probably be your personal cheerleader/hype girl while we’re at it!

I’m all about capturing those honest, unscripted moments—and making the whole process feel easy and fun.

You bring the love. I’ll bring the camera (and the snacks).

Let’s make this your best adventure yet!

Because you only get one life—so let’s freaking live it. 🤘🏼

A Personal Touch

Stress -Free Day

Expert Planning

I’m here to make sure your elopement feels relaxed, joyful, and real. From gentle posing that doesn’t feel stiff, to capturing the quiet, in-between moments you didn’t even know you’d want to remember—I’ve got you. So go ahead, be present, laugh, cry, soak it all in. I’ll be there making sure every part of your day runs smoothly, and every memory gets preserved!

I take the time to truly get to know you—your vision, your vibe, and what really matters to you. From the big moments to the tiniest details, I work closely with you to bring your dream day to life in a way that feels effortless and totally you. Think location ideas that match your energy, thoughtful touches, and a day that reflects your love story—not someone else’s checklist.

With tons of experience under my belt, I’ll help you craft a personalized timeline that flows naturally and leaves room for real connection. I handle the nitty-gritty—permits, weather plans, vendors, logistics—so you don’t have to. Need a backup plan for rain? I’ve got one. Want help choosing the perfect golden-hour spot? Done. You just show up—I’ll take care of the rest!

THIS SOUNDS GREAT!

TARA & BRANDON | LAS VEGAS

"We absolutely loved having her with us for our wedding day. Her ability to go from photographer to wedding planner to navigator in such a calm reassuring way was so kick ass and truly appreciated! She clearly understood the assignment."

YOU'RE IN THE RIGHT PLACE IF:

  • You want to get married in a way that feels simple and intentional
  • You’re excited about an intimate day, but you’re overwhelmed by the details
  • You want beautiful photos but don’t want to “perform” for the camera
  • You’re planning a local Ontario elopement or a destination one—and you want someone to help with both

Yep, This Is So us!

Here's How It Works: 

You get married!!! You laugh, cry, hug your people (or just each other) and soak in every wild, wonderful second. I’ll be quietly capturing it all—the big moments, the little ones, and everything in between!

6. Your elopement day.

This is the fun part! We’ll dive into location ideas, secure any permits, build your timeline, and make backup plans just in case. I’ll be there for vendor recommendations, weather talks, whatever you need. We’ll stay connected with calls whenever you need.

4. We plan your elopement together.

When the day comes, I’ll meet you at your dream location—whether it’s a hidden Ontario lake or a mountain halfway across the world! You bring the love; I’ll bring my camera, snacks, tissues, and backup plans!!

5. FLY OUT AND meet-up.

If you’re ready to go, we’ll lock in your date with a contract and retainer. Then, I’ll send over a (fun but helpful) questionnaire to get to know you better and start crafting your perfect day.

3. LEt's Make it official!

Head to my contact form and tell me everything—what you’re dreaming up, where you’re thinking, how you want the day to feel (even if it’s just “low-key but still epic”). Don’t worry if it’s a little messy or half-formed—that’s totally normal!

1. Tell me your ideas.

After I get your info, I’ll put together a custom proposal based on your plans, location, and what you're looking for. If it feels like a good fit, we’ll hop on a quick call to chat it all through and answer any questions.

2. I’ll send you a personalized proposal.

LET'S GET PLANNING!

KIND WORDS from My Couples

I could give her infinite stars, she is that good. Within the first minute of meeting her we knew we made the best decision of booking her for our very special day. She is a wonderful person and extremely talented photographer. The moments she has captured and the way she made us all feel relaxed is just unbelievable. I would recommend her with eyes closed. Thank you so much Chantel for giving us the wonderful pictures. We would always cherish those pictures and the day we have had! BIG CHEERS TO YOU! I can just keep writing how amazing she is. THANK YOU SO MUCH!

Chantel is the whole package and all you could ever want or need for a photographer! She is incredibly organized, punctual, and her return on photos is always so quick! When it came to planning sessions she always has creative ideas and ways to spice things up. Chantel is so easy and fun to be around that even the most camera shy person will completely warm up. She thinks of every detail and really makes you feel organized- she’s like a built in wedding planner.

TORI I.

Every single photo brought back so many memories. Everything was captured beautifully and she missed nothing!! She captured absolutely every moment and ensured our day went as smoothly as possible. There is no one else in this world who would've made our experience as enjoyable as Chantel!

JOCELYN C.

Beyond her talent, Chantel was a joy to work with. Her warm, down-to-earth personality immediately put my wife and me at ease. She felt more like a trusted friend by our side than someone who'd we just met to take our photos. This connection made all the difference, especially on such personal and emotional occasions. She listened carefully to our preferences and was incredibly flexible in accommodating editing feedback we had, which made the final results even more perfect. Trust her with your special day, you won't regret it!
