Weddings

Weddings are wonderful celebrations: joyful, tearful, loving, funny, heartwarming, and chock full of happy moments. Whether it’s a registry wedding or a weekend celebration, my camera and I don’t want to miss a thing.

As a wedding photographer, my approach is journalistic and I prefer to capture moments as they unfold. For portraits and when direction is necessary, I work with couples to learn their style and preferences. I compile shot lists to make sure no-one gets missed and bring assistants when the wedding party is large. Together our goal is to create family portraits that will be keepsakes of the day.

Every wedding is different, and so is each budget. I encourage you to browse the site to see if my photographic style is what you’re looking for. My wedding and portrait images can also be found in my daily blog, Gail at Large, in the Image Legacy category. All weddings are custom quotes; pricing is explained in greater detail on the rates page. If you like what you see, please email me to discuss your ideas.

I’m also a volunteer at The Brides’ Project in Toronto, a non-profit bridal salon whose proceeds are directed towards cancer charities. If you’re searching for a wedding dress they have a large collection of very reasonably-priced gowns to browse in a relaxed environment. Check out the website (I revamped it in Jan ’09), and make an appointment. I donated my own wedding dress to The Brides’ Project on October 1, 2008, what would’ve been my third wedding anniversary. My story can be found here.

Brides: if you buy your wedding dress from The Brides’ Project, you will receive $100 off your wedding photography.

As a photographer, I am committed to donating a portion of my shooting fees to fundraise for cancer charities such as the Terry Fox Foundation, and as of 2010 I am also a volunteer driver for the Canadian Cancer Society: I take patients to hospitals for treatments and appointments. I encourage you to help the fight against cancer, too. Here’s the deal: if you make a donation to any cancer charity dated within six months after the photo session, send me a copy of the receipt (by fax/email/post) and I will deduct 100% of that amount from the next photo session! The offer is good for one calendar year, from the date of your donation receipt.

Above all else, I hope you like my work, but know that you are also directly contributing to a worthy cause, a very personal one for me: making cancer a disease of the past.

Thank you,
Gail Edwin-Fielding
