About

We're Matt & Adrian

A unique duo of Ottawa Wedding Photographers that are passionate about creative storytelling. We are inspired by real people and real moments. We shoot with the motto, ‘you be you, leave everything else to us.’ We want your wedding day to not be one big photoshoot, but rather a series of unplanned, un staged moments that are authentic to you both and your love story.

OUR APPROACH:

We go after the story that isn't obvious, and the moments you rarely notice. The little looks, the smiles, the nods and winks, the hiccups and the tears. All photographed with honesty and sincerity.

We hate that fake cheesy sh*t that feel forced. We are not big into staging moments, no awkward half smiles, no foreheads pressed together in a field, no weird cues to get you to make out. Your wedding day is about more than a perfect looking image. It's about a feeling. A spontaneous, candid, fleeting moment that deserves to be captured exactly as it happened.

We go after good light, movement, grain and the imperfect. We are passionate about real people and real moments. We want to photograph you both as you are with eachother - how you naturally interact. While there is magic in carefully composing an image, the photos that we love the most are the ones you cannot plan for, that evoke a sense of authenticity and sincerity.

The best photographers!

We loved working with Age of Indie, they captured our wedding the exact way we wanted it to be. Matt was so wonderful to work, he listened to what we wanted and delivered!!! Our pictures reflect us SO BEAUTIFULLY.

Love them both, 10/10, would hire over and over again.

We met Matt and Adrian when they photographed my brother's wedding a few years back, and we liked them so much we had to hire them again for our own wedding and engagement shoot. They bring a level of artistry that surprised us over and over when they would share the photos with us. We were given just enough instruction for the posed and planned shots, and didn't even notice them taking the candid ones.

Of all the stressful things on the big day it was nice to not have to worry about the photos due to the confidence we had in them. We let them capture the beauty while we enjoyed our evening.

We are a husband + husband photography duo who've been photographing weddings since 2016. We first met in 2015 as coworkers and knew instantly that we had a fateful story to create together. We got engaged in 2018 and knew that we had officially started a new chapter in life in one single moment.
