About
Hii!!! My name is Lisa Hughes. I specialize in Wedding, Portrait, Family and Event Photography serving Whitby, Oshawa, Ajax, Kawarthas and GTA! I recently got engaged in July 2022 and it was totally a surreal moment. I feel so incredibly lucky to have met my person. He's just the best and now I know how my clients feel.
I started my photography journey back in 2014 and have since photographed over 225 weddings, over 350 family sessions and more countless memories. My goal as your photographer is to not only capture all the best and fleeting moments throughout our sessions, events and weddings but at the same time have fun and blend right in. I love to laugh with my clients, be silly and am pretty well down for anything. I've been known to crawl into lakes and prickly bushes to get the perfect shot. Let's just say I am a little out of the box and am always open to new adventures! Some people also call me a part time wedding coordinator.
Some More fun info on my life!
I own two beautiful doggos. A Shiz Poo (Sasha) and a Nova Scotia Duck Toller (Penny)
Yes, dogs are always welcomed to our shoots (any animal)
I absolutely love the outdoors, hiking, camping and most of all fishing.
I started a second photography company in 2020, all about the outdoors and since then my images have been on the cover of Ontario Out of Doors Magazine.
I love wine and midday naps.
And I love to enjoy life to its fullest. We only live once.
If I seem fit for you, I would absolutely love to chat further! Also willing to travel and fly anywhere around the world! I would love to capture more country side weddings and am willing to do the daily drives up to 3 hours back and forth to your wedding. If you're interested in chatting further please email info@lisahughes.ca for more information - responses within 48 hours!

Looking for a fantastic photographer? Look no further than Lisa!
Having Lisa photograph our wedding in August at the Royal Ashburn Golf Club was an absolute pleasure and an amazing experience. We would 1000% recommend her for your wedding day!
There is so much time, effort, attention to detail, and money that goes into planning your dream wedding. Having the perfect photographer who will ensure that your dreams and visions for the day are captured, ensure that you are stress free and calm, and ensure that you are completely satisfied is essential. Lisa did all of that for us, and more!
Lisa perfectly captured all the special moments and didn't miss a beat the entire day. She managed to capture our wedding day in a way that we could not even imagine and far exceeded our expectations. When we received our photos from Lisa (which was also much quicker than initially expected) we found ourselves in awe of photos as they were a perfect reflection of our perfect day. The moments she captured will truly last a lifetime, as will our gratitude of her!
We are so glad to have worked with Lisa for our special day, she was flexible with her time, had great communication leading up to the wedding and on the wedding day, and is so down to earth, which made it an absolute pleasure to work with her. If you looking for a photographer and want someone who you can feel confident that they will capture absolutely everything, look no further than Lisa. She is amazing at what she does!
Thank you Lisa for everything, we are so happy to have had you capture our special day.

Absolutely Amazing Photographer – Lisa Captured Our Wedding Perfectly
We had the absolute pleasure of having Lisa as our wedding photographer on June 15th at the Royal Ashburn Golf Club, and we couldn’t be happier with the experience! From start to finish, Lisa did an incredible job. She captured every special moment and gave us a stunning collection of photos that we will cherish forever.
Lisa has an amazing personality that made the day so much more fun and lighthearted. She kept the energy high, and her enthusiasm was contagious! She knew how to keep everyone at ease and was a joy to be around, which really shows in the candid and genuine moments she caught on camera.
Her professionalism and talent are top-notch, but what stood out even more was how personable and easygoing she was. She truly went above and beyond to make sure everything ran smoothly, and her attention to detail was impressive.
We are beyond grateful for her hard work and dedication in capturing our special day so beautifully. We can’t recommend Lisa enough – she’s an absolute gem!

Wedding Photos
Lisa came highly recommended to us when we were looking for a photographer to shoot our wedding day. We knew we were going to be happy with the photos, but what I also learned was that we got one amazing human that went above and beyond on our day to capture all of the beautiful and special moments. She is funny, she is personable, she is professional and she had no problem promoting and posing us when we had no idea what to do. The candid photos she took blew my mind. She made a stressful day so much fun and it really shows in our photos. I felt so lucky to have her in our corner that day. I couldn’t be more happy with our photos!

Best Photographer EVER
Lisa is both an amazing photographer and human to be around. She made us feel so comfortable throughout the entire wedding planning process, engagement photos, and wedding day. She is prompt to respond and always kept me updated on timelines. She offered a lot of suggestions for engagement photos and wedding photos to tailor to our needs and wants. My husband and I are so awkward at taking photos and she made the whole process very seamless and comfortable. When we got our photos back - STUNNING. We are so in love with them. We could not be happier. She captured the wedding day perfectly - from the individual shots, the ceremony shots, the laughs between the bridal party and the love shared between guests. She even had some ideas about photography games that we could play! Towards the end of the night when her time as per contract was running out, she let us know in good time and we actually ended up asking that she stay an extra hour to complete some shots that we really thought were necessary closer to the dance floor time. She was very flexible in timing and was the one who actually suggested that she stay longer to meet our needs! Very happy with her services. Like I said originally, Lisa is a very talented photographer and an even more amazing human being to be around! I highly recommend. We will be using for all our future photography needs.

Best of the best!
It was windy, it was cold, it was rainy. But that didn't matter because we had Lisa. She captured our day PERFECTLY. We had used her before and I couldn't imagine anyone else shooting our wedding. To be honest, I considered moving the wedding date if she wasn't available. And thank God she was. When I say every picture is my favourite, I mean it. She is the best of the best and I can't possibly recommend her enough.
