VENDORS

As a couple who often find themselves mountain biking along the trails surrounding Island Lake Lodge, Laura & Connor's venue choice was a no-brainer. Nestled in amongst the mountain peeks and in front of Island Lake, they exchanged their wedding vows surrounded by their closest friends and family. Later, as the sun began setting, the party really kicked off in earnest, and was a night all in attendance would remember for a lifetime.

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!!

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!

HAYLEY & JOSHUA

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. 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.
