HOW WILL YOU KNOW IF WE’LL BE A GOOD FIT?

THE MOST IMPORTANT PART OF YOUR WEDDING? SPENDING TIME WITH YOUR GUESTS. I’LL BE THERE WITH YOU, CAPTURING THOSE MOMENTS TO REFLECT BACK ON LATER.

Meet your Photographer

Hey there, I’m Andreas, a Toronto area documentary wedding photographer.

When I photograph weddings for couples who truly want to be present on their wedding day—soaking in moments with their guests, parents, and friends—the photographs I create feel effortless, natural, and deeply genuine.

Weddings are an emotional whirlwind, and I love being along for the ride. As an outsider looking in, I quietly observe and document your story with the perspective of a father, a husband, and a lifelong photographer drawn to human connection.

My approach to weddings results in story-driven images that are artful, original, and deeply personal to each couple.

If you crave something unique to the two of you, and are interested in learning more, send me a message or give me a call at 1 416 474 5014 during business hours in Toronto.

HAVE SOMETHING ELSE IN MIND? SEND ME A MESSAGE

“He was unobtrusive, but social. We thought hiring a documentary style photographer would mean they would lurk in the shadows, but Andreas was a part of the wedding, without making the wedding all about him, which we appreciated. As a result, his photographs feel like they were made by a friend…that’s a skill…”
