ABOUT Me

Behind the Lens

I'm a hopeless romantic who finds great joy in creating and capturing connection and beauty wherever I go.

ABOUT ME

Hey, I'M HILARY!

I grew up loving the arts. Photography, painting, music, each inspire my creative eye. Today, artistic expression of all kinds continues to feed my passion for photography.

Outside of capturing weddings, I love to spend my time geocaching with family, enjoying some tea (or wine) with friends, hiking nearby Greenbelt trails, rock climbing, and learning to bake gluten free.

I'm in love with a rustic elegance vibe to life. I love me some beautiful classic soft whites, pastel greens, blues and blush pinks, lace, pearls & wooden texture alongside modern shapes.

You'll catch me singing along to country music anywhere I go, and will probably see me singing and dancing along to your music on your wedding day. I'm a quieter person, which helps me to blend in on your wedding day to be able to capture those special candid moments between you and your loved ones. I do still get goofy and like to laugh and have fun, which puts my couples at ease when working with me, and we will have a ton of fun on your wedding day.

I want to be there to capture your special days, your love, and your family. To be able to remember the good times, and your loved ones. I absolutely love weddings, and being able to share that special moment with you and your favourite people, means the world to me. Whether it's here in Ottawa, across the country, or across the world, I want to be there!

my favourite things:

01

places i've been

Currently I am not much of a world traveller, but I really want that to change! (Though, I am quite nervous about flying). To date, I'd say Banff or Aspen are my favourite places, as I absolutely love mountains. 

02

guilty pleasure

Watching The Office over and over, Gilmore Girls, buying too many old school film cameras, and sour jube jubes.

03

pastTime

Spending an afternoon at the local Arboretum, reading my book and taking photos on my Minolta film camera.

04

Food

I love a good chicken burger with bacon and avocado, Pad Thai, and pasta. Snack go-tos are always sour jube jubes, and lightly salted Ruffles.

05

Animal

I'm a big cat lover, and so I'm biased and I have to say my adorable chonky girl Juniper.

06

part of my job

Making people feel like they're the most special humans on the planet, and capturing their love story with their favourite people.

My clients are seekers of beauty, lovers of fine details, with a taste for adventure and fun.
