I cannot gush about Eleanor enough. She captured the little moments of magic that made our wedding amazing. She was an absolute joy to work with, very professional and understanding. She is so warm and lovely - it was such a pleasure to have her a part of our day!

Destination Wedding

We hired Eleanor to shoot our destination wedding in Mexico and she was amazing! She was a pleasure to work with and made us feel comfortable with all of the wedding day photos. She got our shots quickly and even had time to relax before the reception. The turnaround time was very quick. We had our preview gallery within 2 days and the full gallery within a month. I would highly recommend Eleanor.

We used Eleanor for both our engagement photos and as our wedding day photographer this past August and we could not be more thrilled with how our pictures turned out.  We've been asked many times for the contact information of Eleanor from friends, family and colleagues after seeing our photos.  Eleanor was a pleasure to work with, her communication was fast and we loved her photography style. She really knew what to look for in terms of capturing great moments rather than posing for pictures.  She arrived on time  to our venue (Prince Edward County) and was able to get the pictures done quickly so that the wedding party and family could enjoy the cocktail party but we did not feel rushed at all. She was friendly and engaging with the wedding party but sometimes you just forgot the photographers were there they were doing SUCH an amazing job. About 4 weeks after the wedding we received a full edited set of colour and B&W pictures along with a slideshow.. we loved it as we would never put anything like that together!  Now our only problem is having too many great pics to choose from!  I would HIGHLY recommend Eleanor for your wedding or any event where a professional photographer is necessary.  I can't wait to work with Eleanor again.

Eleanor is not only a talented photographer but an extremely kind and down-to-earth individual that my husband and I had the pleasure of meeting. We had actually booked with another photographer before our meeting, but were both blown away with the authenticity of Eleanor's work. From the moment we met Eleanor, we felt at ease with her flexibility and willingness to travel to our engagement shoot and wedding locations! Eleanor was quick to respond to all of our questions leading up to the wedding and our family and friends felt so comfortable around her (as well as her amazing assistant, Allison) throughout the day. We were so happy with how our photos turned out in the end, and Eleanor really worked her magic in putting together a beautiful wedding album for us.

Eleanor is a dream photographer! Trusting her with our engagement photos and wedding day was so easy to do, as she is relaxed, calm, and confident behind her camera. Our photos came quickly and left us speechless! Having such beautiful, candid and emotion-filled photos is something that we will treasure forever! We have recommended her to countless people who have reached out about our photos. Eleanor knows exactly what to capture and does so exceptionally.

I can't say enough how happy we are that we chose Eleanor and her lovely assistant Heathet to capture our most special moment. Her level of professionalism combined with artistry expertise is second to none. She captures love, deep emotion, family and intimacy. We are thrilled with the portraits and we will treasure them forever.

Eleanor really listened to the type of photos we wanted, and captured many great moments. She was even willing to stand on a rock in the middle of the water to get a shot! The settings she chose and arrangements for photographs were wonderful and creative. I am very happy with her work.

Eleanor was extremely professional and super capable. She came well equipped and always one step ahead of the day. Our wedding photos came out absolutely beautiful. We were super pleased with the way she handled herself and would use her again and again for all our once-in-a-lifetime moments.
