This is not just a job for me
Capturing stories is a lifestyle
From the first event I captured, I knew this is what God put me on this Earth to do. And 11+ years later, the conviction has only gotten stronger.
For my team and I, shooting weddings is more than cinematic lighting or directing the couple elegantly. It’s also about the soft and refined touches that come from genuinely connecting with you.
I believe in structuring the day so you can maximize your time with friends and family. I want to empower you to include as much as possible parts of the celebration that you value.
Ryan was more than just a man with a camera on our wedding day - he was a voice of reason, gave advice, helped where he could and fit right in from the beginning.

Ryan and his team had us laughing so much - we were not nervous at all. Our stunning pictures spoke to this.
On our wedding day, Ryan and his team were punctual, professional and respectful in our homes, place of worship and with our friends and family.
Our photos were spontaneous, natural and captured who we are as a couple.
Ryan’s gentle, down to earth personality helped to calm our nerves
Since my teen years, I’ve been documenting moments with my friends, my faith community, my family, and even special moments on the job when I used to be a language teacher.
It definitely hasn’t been a straightforward journey. But I believe that my experiences as a son, husband, father, Christian, teacher, mentor, have all shaped my art and how we do things at Aperture Lane.
My journey of capturing events has taken me across North America, The Caribbean and even as far as Europe. Through the diverse experiences, I’ve experienced a common thread:

For us, it’s not just about creating photos and videos. It’s about understanding people, learning who they are, and collaborating with them.
the desire to genuinely connect through our experiences
Reva | Content creator
Reva has a great eye for aesthetics that she uses to support the team as we move through the day keeping things fun and candid.
Not only is she good at highlighting the beauty on the wedding day, but Reva has a knack for capturing small unscripted moments amongst the action.
Lisa | videographer & editor
Lisa keeps things together behind the scenes as video and photos are being captured so that we can continue to make our wonderful Aperture Lane couples smile and laugh throughout their event.
That same meticulous and thoughtful perspective is what Lisa uses as she rewatches hours of footage to get the most meaningful and intentional shots to deliver to our couples.
Tristan | Photographer & videographer
With his super chill and laid back personality, clients who work with Tristan usually end up destressing and being more present on the wedding day.
Whether it’s photography or videography, Tristan is a huge asset on the day of the shoot because he brings new and fresh ways of seeing things for each of our unique couples.
Andrea | videographer
Andrea has a way with people. Many couples comment on her soothing presence on the day of the wedding as she skillfully documents candid moments.
Aside from her years of experience shooting different kinds of weddings, Andrea’s demeanour helps clients feel comfortable to be themselves and really let their personalities shine on this once-in-a-lifetime day.
It's definitely a team effort creating these beautiful memories
Of course, skill and experience are important in creating videos and photos to remember the special times.
But It’s also important to have people who are personable and who will help you and your family be at ease on the event day.
