Do you travel and where are you based out of?

I’m located right in the heart of downtown Toronto, Ontario.

I absolutely love to travel, whether it be different parts of Ontario, or different parts of the world. Feel free to inquire about any location your wedding or photography session will take place.

Is your photography method to shoot candidly or posed?

I absolutely love to photograph candidly, it’s the in-between moments where you find the real magic and authenticity. I do, however, understand that some direction is important, especially during engagement sessions, or the portion of your wedding day that I call the ‘intimate session’. The reason why some direction helps during these times is because like most people I work with, it may be your first time in front of the camera. That’s where I come in! It’s part of my job to make sure you feel comfortable and like yourself. Whether I’ve directed you, or captured those in-between moments, I always aim to make you look as natural as possible.

What would booking with you look like?

It’s important to me that I learn about you and your story. Whether you’re more comfortable exchanging emails, phone calls or sharing coffee dates, it’s up to you and is meant to be a personal process. Getting to know one another is so that I have a good understanding of how to curate your wedding day to suit your desired look, and to ensure we are the perfect fit for one another. Upon booking a 40% deposit is required along with a signed contract to secure your date.

Tell me about our photos.

Every photography session is special, with its own set of unique moments to document and its own timeline. With that said, ensuring you will receive the exact number of images that another couple had, is not realistic. What I can promise, is to deliver all successful images in high resolution and edited with the Rust and Bark look. I take 10 – 12 weeks for the delivery of your wedding photos, and 6 – 8 weeks for all other sessions.

Do you give RAW files?

The short answer to this is, no. I really believe in the brand I have built, and a major part of my aesthetic comes alive through editing. I always provide an online gallery for downloading and sharing for one year, as well as a backup USB.

What can I expect working with you?

I love being as hands on through the booking and planning stages as you’ll allow me to be! I’m not the kind of vendor to shy away from your questions, or leave you unsure about where to start in your planning. I truly enjoy the styling and curating aspect of the wedding day or photography session, and so I like to assure you that I am only an email or phone call away. Feeling comfortable around your photographer is a must, because after all, they will be around for all your most vulnerable and incredible moments.
