Wedding, Lifestyle & Branding Photography Services in Toronto and Beyond
Elegant Storytelling, Timeless Imagery
Your wedding day is more than a celebration,it's the beginning of a legacy.
The smiles, the tears, the people who traveled near and far to be with you, and the quiet moments shared between the two of you will pass in an instant. Photographs are what allow you to hold onto those memories long after the day is over.
My goal is to capture not just how your wedding looked, but how it felt, so you can relive every meaningful moment for years to come.
I can't wait to hear your story.
Meet your Wedding Photographer
Yelenne.
Welcome!
I'm Yelenne, an Ontario wedding photographer. I believe the most meaningful photographs live somewhere between art and reality. Inspired by editorial imagery and grounded in documentary storytelling, I create photographs that are both refined and deeply personal. My goal is to capture your day as it naturally unfolds while elevating every moment with intention, beauty, and timeless elegance. The result is a collection of images that feel effortless, emotional, and true to who you are, never stiff, forced, or overly posed.
My approach is for couples who want more than a collection of beautiful images. It's for those who want to remember the feeling. The emotion. The connection. The story that is uniquely theirs. Through a blend of documentary storytelling and thoughtful artistic direction, I create photographs that allow you to relive your wedding day exactly as it felt, honest, meaningful, and full of life.
Because one day, these photographs won't just be for you. They'll become part of your family's history. They'll be shared with future generations, revisited on anniversaries, and treasured in ways you can't fully imagine today.Inspired by both editorial artistry and authentic human connection, I create photographs that are timeless, refined, and filled with feeling.
My goal is simple: to preserve your memories in a way that lets you relive them for years to come.
I'm so glad you're here.
Photography isn't just about documenting what happened—it's about preserving what mattered.
Wow. Wow. Wow. Yelenne is the best in the business!!! She’s so incredibly talented and you can see the magic she creates in each photo. I am BEYOND impressed and madly in love with my wedding photos, I’m still in shock! Yelenne thank you for putting us at such ease on our special day & your creativity shines in each snap! Thank you so much!!!!

Wedding Photography Services
I was planning a destination wedding in Mexico back in 2025 (just got married!) and found Yelenne. Thank the heavens that I did and chose her because I don’t know any other person I would hire to photograph my wedding. She is genuine, kind, listens to your suggestions and captures you as a person. She made everyone feel comfortable and makes you feel like yourself throughout the whole process.
We met a few times over Zoom to discuss the wedding and I’m glad we did. It was so easy to trust her.
I sent Yelenne a timeline of photography, what shots I wanted and she delivered. The details captured throughout the entire day were literal perfection. She spent equal time between the bride, groom, wedding party and family. She sent previews and the full gallery within less than a week (and we were on vacation too)! After seeing the previews, one of my bridesmaids immediately inquired her for her wedding - that’s how good she is.
I can’t thank Yelenne enough for her work and capturing our wedding day more perfectly. Would recommend her over and over again!!

Fine Art Wedding Album. A handcrafted heirloom album designed to preserve your memories. An album turns your wedding memories into something tangible, something you can hold, revisit on anniversaries, and share with future generations. There's something special about sitting together on the couch and reliving your day page by page. While digital galleries are convenient, albums become family heirlooms that grow more meaningful with time. $750 to $1500
Engagement session. A chance to celebrate this season of your story. Your engagement is a unique chapter that deserves to be documented too. Beyond creating beautiful photographs, engagement sessions help us get to know each other and allow you to become comfortable in front of the camera before your wedding day. Most couples arrive at their wedding feeling more relaxed, confident, and excited because they've already experienced the process. A relaxed session to celebrate this season and get comfortable in front of the camera. $500-$800
Film photography. For couples who love the beauty of the imperfect and the timeless.
Film captures light, color, and emotion in a way that feels nostalgic, artistic, and deeply personal. Each frame is intentional, creating images with a softness and authenticity that can't be fully replicated. It's a beautiful addition for couples who value heirloom-quality photographs and want a unique layer added to their wedding story.$500Bridal Session. A chance to slow down and create without the pressure of a wedding timeline. Your wedding day can be busy, and portraits are often limited by schedules, weather, or venue restrictions. A bridal session gives us dedicated time to create beautiful, intentional photographs in a relaxed environment. It's an opportunity to wear your dress again, explore a meaningful location, and capture timeless portraits without feeling rushed. Many couples also find it helps them feel more confident and comfortable in front of the camera before the wedding day. A dedicated portrait session before or after the wedding day $500-$800
Second Photographer. Some moments happen at the same time, and they're all worth remembering. While I'm focused on one part of the story, a second photographer can capture another.We can document your partner getting ready, your guests arriving, your parents' reactions during the ceremony, and candid moments happening behind the scenes. The result is a fuller, richer story of your wedding day and more memories preserved from the people who matter most. Additional coverage and more candid moments from different perspectives. $150 p/hour
Expedited Gallery Delivery. Relive your wedding while the emotions are still fresh.The days immediately following your wedding are filled with excitement, reflection, and conversations about your favorite moments. Expedited delivery allows you to revisit your photographs, share them with loved ones, and experience your wedding story again while everything is still vivid and fresh in your heart. Receive your full gallery sooner than the standard turnaround time ( within 7 days) $900
Same-Day Slideshow. One of the few opportunities to experience your wedding day before it’s even over.Imagine seeing some of your favorite moments from earlier in the day while you're still celebrating with the people who shared them with you. A same-day slideshow allows you and your guests to relive the emotions, excitement, and beauty of your wedding just hours after they happened.
From getting ready and your first look to the ceremony and portraits, a curated 25-30 collection of images is edited and presented during your reception, creating a meaningful experience that often becomes one of the most talked-about moments of the day. It's a chance to pause, reflect, and celebrate the story that's already unfolding $500
Content Creation Coverage. Because some moments are too exciting to wait weeks to relive. Content creation provides behind-the-scenes videos and candid clips captured throughout your wedding day and delivered quickly afterward. While your professional photos and films are carefully crafted and worth the wait, these short clips allow you to revisit the excitement, share moments with friends and family, and experience your day from a different perspective almost immediately. Behind-the-scenes vertical clips and phone content delivered within 24–48 hours. $900-$1900
Additional Coverage Hour. Because some moments aren't meant to be rushed. Whether you'd like more getting-ready coverage, extra time for portraits, or want to document more of the dance floor and celebrations, an additional hour provides flexibility and peace of mind. It allows your day to unfold naturally without feeling like you're constantly watching the clock. Perfect for extra getting-ready time, travel, or extended reception coverage. $450 p/ extra hour
Rehearsal Dinner Coverage. Some of the most meaningful moments happen before the wedding day.The rehearsal dinner is often where stories are shared, emotions run high, and families and friends gather in a more intimate setting. It's a chance to document the anticipation, heartfelt speeches, and connections that are an important part of your wedding weekend but are often forgotten once the big day arrives. Document the intimate moments leading up to your wedding. $1000 for up to 3 hours.
Videography- The sound of your vows, the emotion in a speech, the laughter during cocktail hour, and the movement of your first dance are moments that can only truly be experienced through film. Videography allows you to hear the voices, see the reactions, and relive the atmosphere of your wedding day in a way that complements your photographs and brings your memories back to life. $3500 for up to 8 hours (+ $600 for same day edit short film.)
Photography ADD-ONS Services
We couldn’t have asked for a better wedding photographer! She was incredibly organized, friendly, and so helpful throughout the entire day. Her style is absolutely beautiful! She remembered every single shot we wanted and made everything feel so easy and stress-free. She kept things running smoothly while still letting us fully enjoy our day. Thank you for making our wedding so special!! ❤️ I would highly recommend her photography!

8 hours
Perfect for couples planning a wedding day with most events taking place in one location or with a streamlined timeline. Eight hours typically allows enough time to capture the final stages of getting ready, the ceremony, family portraits, couple portraits, cocktail hour, and many of the key reception moments. If you're envisioning a more intimate celebration or don't need extensive dance floor coverage, 8 hours is often a great fit.
10 hours
My most booked collection by far. Couples often find that 10 hours provides the ideal balance between comprehensive coverage and a relaxed timeline. It allows for a more complete story of the day, from the excitement of getting ready through the major reception events and plenty of candid moments in between. The additional time creates breathing room, meaning less rushing, more flexibility, and more opportunities to document genuine interactions with family and friends.
If you're unsure how much coverage you need, I'm happy to send over a sample timeline. I have examples ranging from 8 hours all the way up to 14 hours of coverage, but reviewing the 10-hour timeline usually gives couples a great sense of what a wedding day can realistically look like and helps determine what would work best for their plans.
travel? I’ll go wherever your love takes us
Travel is calculated from the Greater Toronto Area (GTA), and each collection includes a specific amount of travel distance. Please refer to the pricing guide for details on the travel included with your selected package. Additional travel may be subject to a fee.
For destination and international weddings, travel expenses, including flights and accommodations, must be covered by the client. To keep things simple, I offer a single destination wedding collection, whether you need 6 hours or 10 hours of coverage, the investment remains the same. My goal is to be there to tell your story, wherever it takes place.
HOW it all happens …
-
.We start with a relaxed Zoom call to connect, talk through your wedding plans, and make sure we’re the right fit. You can share your vision, ask questions, and get a feel for how I work before making any decisions.
-
Once you’re ready to move forward, a signed contract and a 33% retainer are required to officially reserve your wedding date. From this moment on, your date is locked in my calendar.
-
After booking, I guide you through the planning process. We’ll refine timelines, discuss details, and make sure everything is set so your day flows naturally and stress-free.
-
This is where everything comes to life. I’ll be there documenting your day as it unfolds, gently guiding when needed, but mostly focusing on real, unscripted moments.
-
Depending on your collection, you’ll receive a selection of preview images within 72 hours so you can relive the emotion and share a first glimpse with family and friends.
-
Your complete gallery is delivered within 4–6 weeks. Every image is carefully edited to reflect your story, ready to be relived, shared, and treasured for years to come.
payment schedule
-
At the time of booking, a 33% non-refundable retainer is required to secure your date. This retainer is applied toward your total package investment. The remaining balance is due prior to or on your wedding day, as outlined in your contract.
Once your date is confirmed, I will officially reserve it for you and begin the planning process to ensure everything is in place for your wedding day.
-
To make things more flexible, payment plans are available. Your total investment can be split into three equal payments: the first payment (33%) is due at the time of booking to secure your date, the second payment is due at an agreed-upon milestone before the wedding, and the final payment is due 7 days prior to your wedding day.
This structure allows you to spread out your payments while ensuring everything is fully taken care of before your celebration begins.
-
For couples who prefer a simpler approach, the remaining balance can also be paid in one final payment. In this case, the full remaining amount is due 7 days prior to your wedding day. This option is perfect if you’d rather take care of everything at once and move into your wedding week with everything fully settled.

-
Yes, this is completely normal and something I guide you through the entire time. I’ll never leave you wondering what to do with your hands. I give gentle direction when needed, but I also focus on natural interaction so your photos feel real, relaxed, and true to you.
-
Most couples book 8–18 months in advance, especially for peak wedding seasons. Once your date is secured with a signed contract and retainer, it is fully reserved and I take on a limited number of weddings each year to ensure each couple receives a personalized experience.
-
My approach sits in the space between documentary storytelling and intentional artistry. I focus on real moments as they naturally unfold, while still guiding you in a way that feels effortless and unforced. The goal is never to stage your day, but to understand it, so the images feel honest, emotional, and deeply connected to who you are.
I’m not just there to take photos of what happens, but to preserve how it felt to live it.
-
I approach every wedding with a strong sense of observation and preparation. Before the day, I learn your timeline and priorities so I know what matters most to you. On the day itself, I stay attentive to natural moments as they unfold so nothing meaningful goes unnoticed.
-
Of course. While I focus on storytelling and natural moments, I always welcome must-have shots like family groupings or meaningful details. I balance those requests with a documentary flow so nothing feels forced or staged.
There are not enough words to describe how we feel about Yelenne! Yelenne recently did our engagement session and wedding day photography with express service and it was easily one of the best wedding decisions we made. During our consult I let her know the most important thing for me was to have photos I could look back on that would bring me back to those special moment of my wedding day and she executed just that! Yelenne came prepared with a mood board and really nailed our vision! If you’re looking for professionalism, a helping hand (in the midst of wedding day chaos), someone who works from the heart, she 👏🏽is👏🏽your👏🏽girl👏🏽! Amiga mia, we cannot thank you enough, we are in awe of our wedding album and wish you a prosperous year ahead! 🩷
