Weddings
A wedding photographer is more than someone who takes photos
Starting in 2023, I will be putting my focus on a select number of weddings each year. So, if you are maybe interested in having me capture your special day, I encourage you to reach out via email promptly to learn about my new pricing and secure your reservation.
I offer a range of four (4) thoughtfully crafted packages tailored to the number of hours you might need.
Now, you might be wondering, “Do I really need a full 12 hours?” The truth is, unless you are planning a grand, traditional wedding, the answer is likely no! In most cases, 8 hours is more than sufficient to beautifully capture all the significant moments. This is where my expertise truly shines. I thoroughly enjoy collaborating with couples throughout the year, finding innovative ways to incorporate all your desired photos within a shorter timeframe—without ever feeling rushed. My priority is ensuring that neither you nor your partner experience unnecessary stress on your big day.
If, by chance, we find that 8 hours isn’t quite enough, fear not! We can effortlessly add an additional hour or two to accommodate any remaining special moments. Moreover, to provide you with extra assistance, I have created an extensive 100+ page guide that covers all aspects of wedding planning. It’s my complimentary gift to you when you select any of my packages.
Rest assured, my packages are incredibly flexible. So, let’s have a conversation and discuss how we can make your wedding photography experience truly exceptional.

At the heart of it all, I am here to make your day effortless and filled with joy. Let’s connect and make your wedding photography journey an extraordinary one.
My name is Isabella! I’ve been a photographer who specializes in Weddings and Boudoir for 14 years. I work in the region of Montreal (QC) but travel all over the world. I have shot weddings in Costa Rica, Punta Cana, Jamaica, Italy, Portugal, and all over Canada.
You can book me for a Boudoir session, a Family session or if you need a professional portrait for your online presence. I only take a SMALL number of weddings but am always open to do elopements or to travel. You can even hire me if you need to make sure your social media is ON POINT. I have a monthly subscription for that type of work.
For weddings, you should book me at least a year in advance. Because I only take a small number now, I can book up rather quickly so, if you really like my work… Consider doing it ASAP. For shoots, usually from 2 weeks to a month is good! If it’s a boudoir session you are looking into, and you want an album for a special present, consider two months because printing companies take a while.
For weddings, a 1000$ retainer fee along with your contract is required to book the date (500$ for very small weddings). This deposit ensures that I book you (and only you) in my calendar. The remaining balance is due 7 days prior to the wedding date. These dates are first-come, first-serve.
For sessions, a 100$ fee is required.
Depends on you! If your wedding doesn’t require a 2nd shooter, I work alone. You can however book one at 100$ per hour.
I process orders on a timeline basis. The first weddings of the year will get their photos first. Generally, you should allow 8-12 weeks for photos to be retouched and uploaded into your gallery. My albums take approximately 3 months to complete starting only after the wedding season is done depending on emails responses from you. These albums are custom-designed by me and it requires a little time to get done.
For sessions, it takes about 2 weeks for photos to come back.
You get all of the photos from your wedding day (or shoot) that I deem “awesome”. That means that unless the flash didn’t pop, the photos are blurry or you aren’t mid-blink, you will get it. Typically that’s approximately 50-70 photos per hour booked. This number isn’t guaranteed though. The number of photos depend of SO MANY FACTORS, including length of contract, Lighting on the day, number of guests, venue decor, etc.
Well, I don’t know about other photographers but, I’m awesome 
I’ll be there on your wedding day not only to take your photos but to HELP YOU as well. Need a glass of water? I’ll go get it. Need better shoes to walk on the grass? I’ll give you mine. Don’t remember what’s next? I’ll let you know and keep you on track! I’m there for you guys. I’m not a fly on the wall as I like to be involved. So, if that’s the type of photographer you are looking for or have a really hands-on planner, I might not be the person for you. But I know a bunch of photographers who are! feel free to ask for recommendations.

If you book with me, I’ll have a 90-page guide that you’ll receive for free to help you get everything on track! I also write blog posts and send out newsletters to help you throughout the year.
I love photographing the “getting ready” part. Love love. I typically start 30 minutes with the groom then, go with the bride for 1.5 hours. That gives me enough time to photograph the boys getting dressed, the bride getting her makeup done while the girls get dressed and then everyone helps the bride put on your dress. I typically end when the dance floor opens.
No, sorry! The RAW images (.nef) are just for me. There’s several reasons for that : Images are taken in RAW format so that they can be edited in my signature style (which you see on my website). Without that editing, they are really boring photos. They also need the proper program and plugins to be previewed and edited and they would be completely useless to you. Just an icon on your computer. They contain copyrighted material that is only to be used by the owner. And finally, if you do have the plugins to see them… they are really yucky to look at! they are usually dark, flat in color and uncropped. Really not fun to own.
Of course! It’s never too late to decide to invest in an album. However, the opposite can’t be done. If the album is already in your contract, it cannot be removed after it’s signed. All albums must be paid in full before the album can be sent off to print.
No. My packages are prices for pick-up at the office only. The reason being that I cannot predict where my clients are going to be from. I wouldn’t want to charge 200$ for shipping if some clients will go pick up their albums. It’s not fair, right? For that reason, all shipping must be paid before I send it off to you.
For the family portraits at weddings? Yes. A month before your wedding day, I send you a form to fill out so that I can get all the details and schedule of your day. I like to come prepared. Included in that, there’s a family list that I want you to think about and then create so that the day goes smoothly and we don’t forget any important portraits with family/friends. As far as candid moments however… no. Why? Because those moments cannot be created. If I have a list of specific moments that I’m looking to capture and that I need to think about not forgetting, that means that my mind is occupied and I might miss authentic moments that are *naturally* happening. You don’t want that! Weddings are all very similar, those “moments” that you want me to capture are probably going to happen naturally. Don’t worry about it so much! Unless it’s something like “My grand aunt is very shy, please make sure to get at least one photo of her” or “my shoe laces are very important to me, please get one of those” Then… I agree… Give me a SHORT list. 
Of course I do! On the day of the wedding, I work with 2 cameras (one main and a backup) and also shoot on dual-slot cameras. That means that my cameras have two cards at all times: the main and a backup. In case one card was to corrupt (yes, it happens) there’s the second one as a backup.
I would probably need to be extremely sick (or have COVID) in order not to make it to your wedding day. I’m talking missing an arm or something. *knocks on wood*. If ever it does happen, there’s a solution. 6 years ago, I built a network on wedding photographers in Montreal and invited them to join a Facebook group. Since then, we have grown and became friends. We share industry tips and tricks, learn from each other, go out for drinks and… cover for each other if someone needs it. In the case where I were to be very sick and unable to make your wedding day, I would call on 300 professional photographers in that group and make sure that your event would be covered with someone with the same style and mentality as myself. I would then take those images and retouch them to match the style you expected. In the extreme off-chance I were NOT to find anyone available, you would get 100% of your money back. Including the retainer fee.
I absolutely have a contract and you should never work with someone who doesn’t have one.
When you book, a non-refundable retainer fee has to be make in order for me to reserve the day for you. If the case that you need to cancel your wedding day, you can get that fee back if we are more than 10 months of your day. That’s because there’s still a chance I might be able to book that date. If we are less than 10 months however, that fee is NON-REFUNDABLE. Your balance is due 7 days before your day. That amount only becomes non-refundable in the circonstance that you would need to cancel 3 days (72 hours) before your day.
