Absolutely magical experience - with the most beautiful photos as a result!

My fiance found and booked Viara - he managed to find the perfect photographer! She was the perfect actress so the surprise proposal was very much a surprise then proceeded to take the most gorgeous photos - we can't stop looking at them, debating which are our favorites. Neither my fiance nor I are a fan of photoshoots but both of us could not stop raving about how much we enjoyed our experience with Viara! I cannot recommend working with her enough :)

A Professional, Timely, and Heartfelt Photographer

I strongly, strongly, strongly recommend hiring Quirky Love Photography to capture your wedding. You get what you pay for: professional, kind service that you can depend on.

Viara has a real gift for photography; she makes you and your family members feel comfortable, she brings a positive, lovely energy to every space she is in, and she manages to capture shots that you didn't know you needed until you see them.

Her documentary style of photography avoids the wedding cliches of orange tinted photos and posed nonsense. She captured our day in its full range of emotions. She has the type of photography that my wife and I know we will cherish more and more and more as time goes on.

We loved working with Viara and we know you will too. Do yourself a kindness and book a consultation with her.

Amazingly Talented Photographer with a Lovely & Friendly Vibe

Viara photographed our 2023 Fall wedding at Fantasy Farm in Toronto and she did an absolutely amazing job. We are so so happy with the photos and all our friends & family love them too.
She was so friendly and approachable from initial contact all the way through to the big day, and made the entire process so easy. Very competitive pricing, we cannot recommend Viara enough.

Viara is amazing!

Words cannot describe how amazing our experience with Viara was. She captured every important moment of our wedding, while remaining on the background. We didn’t want a million posed photos and Viara specializes in candid photography. We haven’t received all our pictures back yet, but the ones we did are so beyond beautiful that I started crying at work. Further to this, both my husband and I felt very connected to Viara. She got us and what we wanted right away. We are absolutely over the moon happy with the few photos we have received so far and can’t wait for the rest!

Captured our special event perfectly

Viara (Quirky Love photography) was remarkable to deal with. We felt comfortable dealing with her she was professional, reliable, completely supportive of our special day. She did an amazing job of being there for all the right shots without being intrusive. We can’t recommend her highly enough! We think she is very special and the photographs that we have now are evidence of it. She was very professional in the way she followed up and helped us with laying out an album. We were also overwhelmed that she helped us to get an amazing video (by her assistant Casey) which is very special and we enjoy sharing with all our friends with love. We have no hesitation to recommend Viara to anyone that need their special moment captured with Quirky love.

Fun and authentic, will capture the real you

We had an engagement photo session with Viara and couldn´t be happier. She connects with people, is extremely empathetic and also has fun with you!
Not only are her photos amazingly fun and real, but she makes you have a good time while being photographed. None of her work makes you feel like a weird inexperienced model, when you don´t know where and how to look or what to do your hands. She will just capture you as you are.
Trust her.

Freaking perfect

I will be raving about Viara and Quirky Love Photography for the rest of my life. The fact that we have so many perfect photos that actually reflect the way I remember our wedding day is so invaluable. From getting ready in the AM to the dance party in the late PM, Quirky Love captured all the little moments we didn't want to forget. She is the most fun someone can be while still being professional and delivering the quality you'd expect from a wedding photographer. If you don't live near Kingston - don't worry - she travels!!

Never thought a photographer could be so fun!!

We had SO much fun with Viara at our June2018 wedding! I would 1000% recommend her for any occasion, especially if your event is a little off beat! We had our wedding in our tiny back yard and even though I was pretty stressed out the whole time you’d never guess from the photos. Just a really positive presence to be around and a blast to work with.

Thank you!!

Perfect in every way

I've been lucky enough to have Viara photograph my wedding and the wedding of a close friend. She is so lovely to be around; both my husband and I can be pretty shy and awkward, but Viara has always made us feel so comfortable and at ease. And her photos!!!! She has such a special gift of capturing authentic moments and emotions. It is a pretty remarkable thing to be able to look through wedding albums and get to relive these moments which go by so quickly on the day of, and I can't thank Viara enough for capturing these for us and letting us re-experience them.

Meet the team

Primary Photographer

Hi, I'm Viara.

I was always artsy, but I pursued a career in science, because that was then and this is now.

After getting a Master's in Neuroscience, and a PhD in Behavioural Genetics (studying parenting), I lived in the Netherlands for two years to do more research. I fell in love with Dutch culture.

When I came back to Kingston with my husband and three kids, we started a hobby farm.

Around this time, when trying to pay the bills by teaching occasional courses at Queen's University, I decided there must be a better way.

I began my career as a professional photographer in October 2015, when photographing the birth of a baby, and I've never looked back.
