Indigo Love Studios

Toronto, Ontario

Photographer

HELLO! I AM KAY Supporter of all love, always... Travel enthusiast, Aesthetic lover, positive like a proton. I believe that you have to know love, to be able to witness it in others. Love has so many forms and shapes. You can find it through friendship, through dating, through marriage and parenthood. You can even learn from it through heartbreak. I am here to preserve your love story. Born and Raised in India, I hopped on a plane in search of a new career and landed in Canada in 2018. With a background in Fashion and Styling, I landed in the wedding industry, mixing my education in styling with capturing two people falling in love. I feel everyone deserves to look like they belong on a magazine cover, and wedding photos should look like art. I love, love, love collecting footwear. I own about 50 pairs and wear each one. I love to style myself on wedding days, and you will never catch me not dressed up.

Ema Suvajac Photography

Kitchener, Ontario

Photographer

Hey there! My name is Ema, and I’m a professional photographer in Kitchener / Waterloo / Guelph, working throughout Ontario, and abroad. I’ve always had a love for photography – running around with a camera from early childhood, I set out to capture memorable images of my family, friends, and nature. Almost two decades later, I am still running around, albeit with a much more expensive camera and a much better eye for what works as an image. My work has been published locally and internationally. I enjoy a wide variety of photographic styles, including fashion, beauty, commercial, portrait, wedding, and event photography. The variety of work that I attract keeps my business exciting! My business-to-business photography can be found on my sister-site eVox Studios, and my wedding work at Ema Wedding Co.

Olive Studio

Hamilton, Ontario

Photographer

My journey began with a passion for fashion, evolved through interior design, and culminated in the art of documentary photography. Today, I fuse these influences to create photography that not only captures your essence but ensures you look your best. My commitment is to highlight your true self, with no double chins or goofy faces left uncorrected. When you hire a professional, you're investing in quality, from perfect positioning and posing to flawless execution. I bring professional-grade equipment, complete with backups and full insurance, ensuring a seamless experience. I'll guide you if there's a quirky detail to tweak, or shift you out of unflattering light to showcase your best angle. Documenting life as we see it is important, but so is making sure that you look your best - especially if you are not feeling up to pro standard in front of the camera! My technique is fun and full of motion. If this resonates with you, drop me an email and share a bit about your dream wedding!
