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

Wedding or 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)!

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. 🤘🏼

Canada Is Calling — Let’s Go!

Chantel was our photographer for our destination wedding in Mexico and I cannot say enough good things about her! She went above and beyond to make the day so special! Not only does she take amazing photos, she was an incredible help with scheduling and provided the best tips to make the day extra special.

“She went above and beyond to make the day so special!"

ALLISON & MATT

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

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!

ALEX K.

If you are looking for a photographer for any life event, Chantel is your person. She has made each shoot for myself, friends and family more then just a photoshoot, they have also all become a core memory. She is truly passionate about what she does and goes above and beyond the expectations of a photographer. We will continue to use Chantel for any future photography and recommend her to everyone and anyone we know! 

CHANELLE S.

From our engagement shoot all the way to newborn pictures with our newest family member Chantel has been there to capture ALL of our lives most precious moments, I couldn’t ask for a better photographer she will always be our go girl hands down. She will always go above and beyond to make sure you get exactly what you want out of your session if not more, I will forever cherish all the beautiful moments & memories for years to come. You will NOT be disappointed if you book a session with chantel!

ASHLEY C.

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!
