VENUE: Island Lake Lodge
On a perfect summer day in the Rockies, Island Lake Lodge looked like something straight out of a dream. For Laura & Connor, this was the perfect setting for a wedding that felt as free and effortless as they are. With towering mountain peaks and the calm, crystal-clear lake as their backdrop, they exchanged vows in a way that felt personal and real - just their closest friends and family, nature, and a whole lot of love.

THE HIGHLIGHTS
Shannon was an absolute DREAM start to finish. So down to earth and easy to chat to in our first consultation, totally communicative and understanding in the months leading up to our wedding, and a warm, fun and totally professional presence on the actual day!! Not to mention that we are OBSESSED with the photos she took. She's absolutely worth every penny!!
"WE ARE OBSESSED WITH THE PHOTOS"
ALEX & OLIVIER
We couldn’t have asked for a better photographer for our wedding.
Shannon had a great eye for detail and guided us into poses that felt natural and comfortable, resulting in beautiful photos.
We didn’t have to worry about a thing – Shannon’s direction made everything flow smoothly, and the end results were more than we could have hoped for. We’re so grateful for her work and highly recommend West of Yonge Studios.
Shannon was absolutely incredible through the whole process of wedding planning!! She made two camera shy people look like stars! Her eye for details, lighting and poses are stunning - she is an artist. Taking into account weather and needing to be flexible on the day, her quick decisions made us look great and captured natural relationships with our guests. The photos are moments and memories that we will treasure forever!
We couldn’t be happier with our choice to hire West of Yonge Studios for our engagement and wedding photography. In all the wedding day chaos, Shannon was a reassuring and calming presence. My wife and I are a bit camera shy and weren’t sure how to pose. Shannon was quick to give us prompts to help us loosen up so that we were able to get a nice blend of portraits and candid shots. The photos are absolutely stunning and captured our day perfectly! She also clearly listened to our requests such as getting lots of nature portraits and photos of our guests enjoying the reception.
