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!

The best wedding photographer ever!

I had the absolute pleasure of having Lisa shoot my dream, September wedding. She is the most amazing person! Not only does she go above and beyond to get the most perfect photos, she is so funny and sweet. She fit in perfectly with my crazy family ! Lots of laughs had! We all really appreciated her keeping us all in order, even having to boss my father in law around a few times! Long after the wedding, we have had so many people reach out and tell us what an incredible energy she brought to the day. Lisa has a way of making you feel comfortable and beautiful in front of the camera. If you are looking for a photographer who will take the most beautiful pictures, act as a coordinator, and have the entire experience run smoothly, look no further. I cannot wait to have Lisa capture many moments for years to come! Thank you, Lisa!

Excellent Wedding Photographer

Lisa was an incredible wedding photographer: professional, easygoing, and genuinely fun to work with. She captured a ton of amazing shots and took charge of the photography schedule in a way that made the whole day run smoothly. She even stayed longer when we needed extra time, which we appreciated so much. Highly recommend!

BEST wedding photographer!!

Where do I begin? Lisa did our engagement and wedding photos and both times were amazing experiences. Her work definitely speaks for itself… stunning! Lisa is warm, friendly and very professional. Her talent is unmatched and she is exactly the kind of photographer you deserve on your big day!

At the beginning of our interaction, Lisa was very communicative and prompt at responding. She answered all my questions and even helped scout good times/places to capture the peak fall colours we wanted for our engagement shoot ahead of time. She was very good at instructing us and making us comfortable while she was behind the camera. It definitely put our minds at ease for our wedding day as we knew we would be in great hands!

On our wedding day, Lisa came through with that same positive experience yet again. You really want a photographer that you feel comfortable hanging out with on your most important day when stress and anxiety is high. That is Lisa to a T! She showed up early and even though we were slightly behind schedule she never made us feel rushed. She was a calm, yet commanding force that really wrangled our large family effortlessly. We were so happy she was a part of the big day.

Lisa provided a sneak peak the very next day and returned our wedding photos quicker than expected. Let me tell you… when we opened our photos we were speechless and the tears were flowing. Her work is incredible and the photos were perfection. Do yourself a favour and plan for golden hour photos because that is where Lisa shines!

Thank you so much for capturing our special day! I would recommend you to anyone and I’m excited to work together again in the future!

Amazing, Lovely & Very Talented!

There aren't enough words to describe Lisa. We clicked from the very beginning, and she made our engagement photos and wedding photo processes seamless. She is very professional, but also so warm, kind and full of joy. We've only received our sneak peeks this early; however, we are in love with them. We cannot thank her enough for being by our sides on our day. I can't wait to see everything she captured from the night. If we could give her more stars we would!! 10/10 HIGHLY RECOMMEND

Couldn’t Recommend Lisa Enough!

We had the pleasure of working with Lisa for our wedding in May, and we honestly couldn’t be happier with the experience or the results. She was professional, kind, and made us feel completely at ease!

Lisa’s attention to detail was incredible. Every photo tells the story of our day so beautifully. The final gallery truly exceeded our expectations and we are so happy we chose Lisa to capture our special day!

Thank you Lisa for helping us hold onto these memories for a lifetime!

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!
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.
