Gail Aguiar, aka Gail at Large, is a Canadian freelance photographer shooting weddings, portraits, and events since 2008.

If you’re looking for a wedding photographer in the Toronto area, I highly recommend Ashlea MacAuley Photography and Rosetta Li Weddings.

In Autumn 2013 I moved my home base from Canada to Portugal, expanding my travel portfolio to include local insights and provide a visual guide to my adopted country. Portugal is incredibly scenic and a wonderful backdrop for photography.
