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.
