timeless wedding photography for couples who want to preserve their memories
Capture the intimate, candid, and real moments of your day
Your Wedding Day Represents an Exciting Chapter
One that sets the stage for the rest of your lives. From the minute you put on your dress to the heartfelt speeches and celebratory dances you’ll share with family and friends, your wedding day will be filled with fleeting moments, each of which contains a story of its own.
The tearful hug between you and your parents as they realize just how grown up you are. The look you share with your partner as you’re called a married couple for the first time. The warm embrace of family members happily welcoming each other into their circle.
These are the stories you’ll want to capture and hold onto forever. As you step in front of my lens, you can trust that I’ll be there to capture all of the intimate, authentic and real moments of your day—big and small.
With my thorough approach and attention to detail, paired with my bubbly, fun-loving personality, you’ll feel present and taken care of through every moment as you step into this next chapter in your life!
It’s Not About How You Look,
It’s About How You Feel
It’s easy to get lost in the details of wedding planning. From the dresses to the flowers and the ambiance of your venue, it’s easy to feel like everything has to look a certain way.
But you’re not interested in the vanity of it all. What matters most to you is sharing genuine connections and moments on your wedding day.
You want to partner with a photographer who has your back so you feel comfortable showing up in front of the camera in your truest form. Someone who…
- Understands the connections you share with family and friends, and has an eye for capturing the in-between moments you’ll revel in for years to come.
- Elicits a confidence in you that will allow you to stay present, trusting every detail has been considered and taken care of.
- Makes you feel like you’re the only two people in the room, taking the pressure off being the centre of attention.
- Brings out your playful and sincere side while still providing enough direction to help you feel natural in front of the camera.
That’s me.
I’ve had the privilege of capturing hundreds of weddings. So, if you’re feeling a little nervous about the prospect of being followed by cameras all day, don’t worry. I’ll be there through every step, making sure you feel comfortable and, most importantly, like yourself.
"Clarissa is truly the best! My husband and I hired her to shoot our wedding, and can’t stop gushing about her to everyone who will listen. From our initial call right through to our wedding day, she was proactive in her communication, thorough in her details and planning, and made sure our entire wedding party (of 18) + family all stayed on track without ever causing anyone stress. Her photos are absolutely stunning, but beyond that she is such a calming and professional presence to have on such a busy, momentous day. Thank you for helping make our day so special!"

"Clarissa was extremely helpful from day one. She keeps everything organized and checks in several times leading up to your wedding day which takes so much stress off when planning. Both Clarissa and her team member Sam are extremely talented and captured our wedding day perfectly. They are also so much fun to work with and make you feel so comfortable for photos. If you're looking a wedding photographer, I wouldn't look any further. You will not regret your choice!"

My Promise to You…
Your wedding day and the months leading up to it are something to be savoured and romanticized.
As your photographer, my mission is to help make this time as stress-free as possible, so you’re able to soak in every moment—from wedding planning to those first minutes as newlyweds. Here is what you can expect from me as your wedding photographer throughout the process!
Thoughtful, Organized Planning: I believe the key to candid yet curated wedding photography is good planning (that’s my business background showing). From the moment we leave our Vision Meeting, you can trust that I’ll be busy behind the scenes visualizing your shot list, organizing a day-of schedule with back up plans and making best-laid plans so your wedding day is as smooth as possible.
Honest Pricing: While you can’t put a price on the memories captured on your wedding day, beautiful photography doesn’t have to come at a luxury price point. Every wedding, couple and budget is unique, and I take pride in creating custom proposals to suit your unique needs.
Genuine Excitement for You: Your wedding will be one of the best days of your life—one you’ll want to relive over and over again (almost immediately). My goal is to KEEP that excitement going, delivering a sneak peek of your photos in just 24 hours and delivering your full, edited gallery in as little as four weeks (hello, one-month anniversary celebrations!).
