Ontario Wedding & Elopement Photographer
Capturing the real stuff — all across Ontario.
Tell Me About Your Day!
Hey, so you're getting married in Ontario!
Amazing choice!
Whether you’ve been dreaming of this day forever or you're just figuring things out as you go (hi, same), one thing’s for sure — you want the kind of photos that feel like you.
Not overly posed. Not just a Pinterest copy.
You want to look back and think: "Yes. That was us. That was OUR day."
That’s exactly what I’m here for! *wink wink*
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. 🤘🏼
MORE ABOUT ME
Your Ontario Wedding & Elopement Photographer:
Why Picking a Local Ontario Photographer Is Actually a Game Changer:
HINT: Ontario is big and diverse
Having a photographer who TRULY knows Ontario inside and out like its local spots, the best times for lighting, and the permit rules (yes, there are permit rules!) makes a HUGE DIFFERENCE.
Here’s what working with me (a local) means for you:
- I know all the good spots! — whether you want chill lakes, pretty forests, or cute little towns. Plus, I’ll save you from dealing with any annoying permits or fees because, trust me, those can be a pain!
- Ontario weather? Yeah, it’s unpredictable. But since I’m local, I know when to expect the best light and what to do if it suddenly rains on your parade. No stressing, just going with the flow!
- Also, wedding stuff comes with a ton of questions — and having someone nearby means you won’t be left waiting forever for answers. I’ve got plenty of experience, having traveled all over for weddings, so I totally get how things can go down and what you’ll need!

"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.

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.
ALLISON H.
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!
