Amélie & Alexis. 
The first wedding of the season was full of colours, sunshine, fun times and moments of spontaneity.

While we were sitting in the taxi, on our way to Old Montreal, Amélie mentioned she was hoping there would be enough wind to make the veil dance and capture some beautiful candid photos. The second image was taken literally 5 seconds after leaving the taxi. Mission accomplished!

Here we go!! The wedding season has officially started! 

After two difficult years of dealing with a pandemic and all the uncertainty, life seems to be slowly picking up its pace and a gentle wind of freedom is blowing again, just in time for spring. 

Many couples have had to postpone their wedding, some more than once, and had to change their wedding plans over and over again. I know how frustrating that must have been. 

We can now officially say that 2022 will be the year of you finally saying I do! It will be a time for celebration and I can’t wait to capture all the happy moments! 

I feel more than ever the importance of capturing not only the love that unites two people, but also all the small and touching moments shared with your friends and family members. My mission is to create images that are authentic, poetic, full of love, emotions and light. So you can have heirlooms of all the meaningful moments, of all the things that truly matter. 

May these two challenging years be a lesson for all of us, a reminder of what really matters. Don’t you worry about your wedding dress getting dirty, or being 10 minutes late on schedule, or having rain on your wedding day….Instead, look around you and see all the people that you care so much about, who are all here to celebrate love and life with you. Don’t stress over the little things and enjoy the moment! ❤️

I absolutely love photo sessions in Quebec City! 

Now that I am back in my home town, many couples have been traveling to Quebec to have me photograph their important moments. I’m so so grateful for it! 

Gowthami and Aravind made the long 4 hours drive to have their maternity session in Old Quebec. They decided to make it a fun and romantic getaway. 
We were lucky to have a gorgeous warm and sunny day!

Wedding photography series inspired by Lars von Trier’s movie Melancholia. 

Anyone else has seen that movie?

Not many people know this, but I studied in films and cinematography before I decided to become a full time photographer. Movies have a big influence on my photography work.

Throwback to last September when I did an engagement session with Mel and Mat in Mont-Tremblant. 

I absolutely adore these two! Full of love, laughter and positive vibes! 

Also, Mel has such beautiful and mesmerizing blue eyes. Obsessed 😍

Happy 1 year wedding anniversary to these two! 

Jessica and Kevin eloped on the most beautiful and warmest day of April 2021. After the ceremony, they wanted an intimate moment just the two of them together to read their vows. I captured all the emotions from afar as the sun was slowly setting.

There is nothing more magical and romantic than a snowy day in Quebec. 

On March 12, Ally and Nigel came to the city for the weekend to plan their fall destination wedding. 

I was super excited to show them my hometown and the snowstorm made the day even more memorable!

We spent a couple of hours strolling around Old Quebec, playing in the snow and capturing some beautiful memories.

Hey everyone, I’m back! 

I took some well needed time away from instagram. Life has been quite overwhelming lately to be honest. I hope everyone is doing alright given everything going on in the world.

All we need is love and more of it. 

Happy to announce I can finally start taking bookings for 2023 weddings! 

What’s New:

* Brand new website. Check it out! Link in bio.

* Moving to Charlevoix. This means I will prioritize weddings in Quebec City’s region. But I will still take  some bookings for Montreal, Eastern Townships, Laurentians and Ottawa. I am also available for destination weddings and elopements.

* From now on, I will not take on big weddings without a planner. All too often I end up planning and coordinating on the day of when I should be capturing all the important moments. 

To get more infos, please visit my website. (version française à venir….) 

You can inquire by filling out the form on the contact page.

Looking forward to read all about your plans and vision for your wedding!
