The Girl Behind the Lens!

Welcome to Amy Symes Photography, a blog showcasing recent work to both current and potential clients!

A little bit about me...

I am a wife and mother of a beautiful baby girl, passionate about art, culture, travel and good food (though, it couldn't hurt if I spent more time in the kitchen!) and of course, photography! 

I'm a hopeless romantic with an eye for detail and a great desire to capture those tender, candid moments shared between couples on their wedding day, expectant parents anticipating the arrival of a special someone and families spending precious time together. My ultimate goal is to share your love stories through photography.

Have a look around! Here on the blog you'll find my most recent work or head over to my website/ online portfolio to check out the galleries. Additonally, if you are a bride or couple planning a wedding, be inspired by fresh ideas and real weddings on Wedding Envy .  There you will also find local vendors and other resources!

Think we're a good fit?  Please contact me using the blog or website submission form or at symes (dot) amy (at) gmail (dot) com   (written this way to prevent spammers!)

If you'd like to receive email notifications when I've added a new post,  enter your email under the "subscribe" tab!  I proimse, you won't be disappointed!

Looking forward to working with you!

Sincerely,

Amy

L, M, N, O, P….rocrastination

So here I am–Wednesday, August 19th 2009.  I have been saying since Monday that I really need to start getting organized for school, which inevitably, started out as a shopping trip to Staples!  I always say that I’m just going to pick up ‘few things’, but the sad reality is that I have this thing about school...

Summer at last!!

It finally felt like summer today! I was trying to decide whether I wanted to clean the bathrooms and unload the dishwasher or go outside and play!  The sun won!  You have to take advantage of it afterall! I pretty much treated myself to a morning at the spa and and afternoon outdoors.  I wasn’t...

Fresh Summer Salad!

If there’s one thing I love more than eating food–it’s photographing it! Summer is such a great time for that too, when there are all sorts of fresh fruits and veggies that make for bright, colourful and delicious shots!  For our 2 year anniversary, Andrew and I went to the Keg (thanks to a generous...

Oh Baby!!

So there have been lots of bellies and babies this summer!  I recently just shot my fourth session of the summer! Two of those ladies have had their babies–both healthy boys and the other two should be delivering quite soon! All very exciting! I really enjoy doing these sessions because you can see both in...

A Tribute to Grandpa

This past week, my beloved grandpa passed away suddenly due to a heart attack.  Although the paramedics were able to re-start his heart, the damage had been done to his brain, due to a lack of oxygen.  My grandpa, Louie Silvello, would be celebrating his 78th birthday this coming August 8th.  This sudden death really reminded me of just how quickly life...
