Moments into Memories

About the photographer

The best photos happen when you're busy soaking in the moment — not worrying about the camera.

I'm Eleri, an Ottawa Valley based wedding and portrait photographer.

Weddings

Portraits

Your wedding doesn’t need to feel like a big photoshoot.

It's hugs from people you haven't seen in years.

It's your grandparents tearing up during the ceremony.

It's your best friends laughing a little too hard during speeches.

It's the quiet moments between all the excitement.

Those are the memories that matter most.

Of course we'll make time for family portraits and beautiful photos of the two of you (you know, the ones you send to your parents to stick on the fridge), but my goal is never to spend your day directing every moment. I'll guide you when you need it, then step back so you can be fully present with the people you love.

What it's like to work together

No need to worry about knowing how to pose. I'll offer gentle direction when it's helpful, then let the moments unfold naturally.
Every couple is different, and every wedding should feel that way. I want to know what matters most to you so your gallery reflects your day—not a template.
My editing stays true to the colours, atmosphere, and feeling of your wedding day. Your photos should feel just as genuine years from now as they did in the moment.

A few kind words

Taylor, September 2025

I highly recommend Eleri for wedding photography. She photographed my own wedding in September AND my mom’s wedding summer 2024. She was incredibly professional. Her requirements were clear and she asked me questions about details I hadn’t thought of. She was friendly with all guests while ensuring all the shots we asked her to take were taken. Especially during family/wedding party photos after the reception, she was quick and efficient to allow us and the family to re-join our guests for the cocktail. The final product photos were incredible. She suggested poses to us that came out beautifully. Thank you so much Eleri!

Eleri was our wedding photographer in May 2025 for our wedding ceremony and dinner. Where we originally planned to take photos was not an option day of. Eleri improvised like a pro, such that nobody was aware of the change. We liked her work so much that we asked her to photograph our reception in September 2025.
What makes Eleri special is her ability to keep you laughing and comfortable in front of the camera.

Eleri believes she is “new” to wedding photography, but her work says otherwise! She is the consulate professional, managing guests and seeking out the unexpected, heart-warming, and laughable moments to cherish through photos forever!
