"From the moment we met Makenna, she made us feel like old friends, and her professionalism only added to the experience. What impressed us the most was Makenna's dedication to finding the perfect locations for our photos. She did research and scouted out spots that truly reflected our style. We couldn't be happier with how the photos turned out – they're absolutely stunning! If you're looking for a photographer who not only captures beautiful moments but also makes the entire process enjoyable, we highly recommend Makenna. She's a gem!

Your experience begins from the time you hit submit on my contact form - yay! I will reach out to you within 48 hours to schedule a call where we can meet and discuss your vision.
01. the inquiry
During our call, this is our opportunity to meet & get to know each other! It's also when I will answer any questions you may have and begin gathering fun details to help you plan your dream elopement!
02. the consultation
After our consultation call, if we decide we're a good fit, then we make things official! I will send you a contract and invoice via email, requiring a 50% deposit to secure the date(s).
03. the Booking
I take the time to really get to know you both through custom questionnaires and communication so I can understand what's important to you as a couple. I craft a custom location list based on your interests and what you share with me!
04. the planning
Once a location is determined, I create a personalized timeline to fit everything you want into your day. I also provide you with vendor recommendations based on what you want (remember, you can literally have anything you want)!
05. the Location & activities
I’ll give you ideas on activities you can include in your day, and make suggestions if you need help on ways to make your day more unique and personal. After all, shouldn’t your wedding day reflect you and your values?
06. the timeline
We'll finalize the details before the big day in another call! This will give you a chance to review the timeline & all the activities. It's also a great opportunity to address any last-minute questions without going back and forth over email!
07. the final call
Yay - the big day is here! Celebrate your love, this special moment, and the beauty all around you! I’ll send over some sneak peeks within 48 hours! The rest of your hi-res, edited images will be ready on an online gallery in 4-6 weeks.
08. the big day
My Process.
A: Depends on your dream location! All National Parks require a permit. Permits need to be applied for online at least 60 days in advance. Ontario Parks recommends that you and your photographer reach out to the specific park directly to see if they can accommodate the request. No worries, I will help you figure out all permitting needs!
Q: do we need a permit?
A: YES! My packages are designed to provide you with an all-inclusive experience. This approach ensures that you are not burdened with the task of calculating expenses related to my flights, rental car & accommodations. It also relieves you of the responsibility of making these arrangements. Less stress!
Q: ARE TRAVEL FEES INCLUDED?
A: No need to feel anxious! As your guide, I'll navigate you through your elopement with ease. A big part of my style is documenting my couples living in the moment so you don't have to worry about posing! You'll be surprised by how fantastic you'll look & how much fun you'll have!
Q: WHAT IF WE'RE AWKWARD IN FRONT OF THE CAMERA?
A: Unless the weather is so bad that it is a risk to our safety, most likely we will embrace the rain and wind. It actually makes for quite stunning and memorable photos. I also set aside additional time for each elopement to see if the weather will clear up (just in case)!
Q: WHAT IF THE WEATHER IS BAD?
A: You don't need to hike in your dress or suit if you don't want to! Although, it makes for some pretty epic photos! You can pack it in a garment bag and attach it to your pack. If you feel uncomfortable changing behind a tree, I can bring a pop-up tent for you!
