As an artist and photographer, you are the feeler and the guide of energy. You hold the power and intention of creating a memorable experience for a couple, for a family, for an individual. The people you photograph will have a stronger emotional attachment to the images you create if you can create a safe and comfortable environment for them to express themselves authentically. This business isn’t just about photography, it’s about people. It’s about connecting with them and showing them that their being, their life and, most importantly their love, is meaningful. You’re creating feelings, and those feelings illuminate their memories. The Wedding Legends Workshop is an intimate, hands-on, small batch masterclass, focused on connection and education for photographers seeking to expand their capabilities in the realm of lifestyle and wedding photography. This workshop will be taking place on June 11th in Tiny, ON on the Tiny Beaches of Georgian Bay and in the surrounding forests. All attendees walk away with new enhancements to their style and ways to expand their brand and business, and one lucky photographer will also be gifted a $2000 cheque to re-invest into their business. It’s the first workshop of its kind to give back to an aspiring photographer and our way of sharing our passion for helping others create a life of their passions. Attendees will spend an entire day hanging out and learning from us. Our goal is to support you in taking your art and business to the next level. We will be covering the importance of connecting with your couples, discovering your ‘why’, setting intentions, the power of understanding light / how to use it and teaching you how to expand your brand and achieve brand consistency. We have a few last spots remaining! Follow our story highlight and the link in our bio for testimonials, to learn more and reserve your spot! 🙏🏼🫶🏼

The Wendt Family before three become four ✨

Soul Films ✨ Capturing the movement of love + connection of Hannah + Mohammed in Sedona was bliss ✨ Our soul films can be added to any session, elopement or intimate wedding ✨ We’d love to create with you 🤍

This hike was a day to remember. Every time we are in Arizona + Sedona nature, it feels surreal. The tones of the Red Rock Mountain, the big blue skies, the green lush trees + cacti, the flowing glacier water…everything ignites our senses on another level. The fresh air, the expansiveness + the views! Combined with vortex energy this place is beyond magical. The peaceful vibes, the calming presence of the mountains, the kindness of the people. Rig life brought us to Arizona + we believe no matter what happens in our journey, that we were meant to discover life here. This is our third season staying in Sedona, each time staying longer ✨ Our first 25km hike + over 2500 ft elevation. We don’t get the opportunities to hike as much in Ontario, we spend more time in the water, so we soak these hikes in. We feel grateful rig life allows us to experience a water season + a hiking season ✨ We’ll be back in Ontario for 6 months come May + are so excited to connect with family + friends, to capture beautiful wedding days, for our Wedding Legends Workshop, hosting healing yoga days, Reiki + so much more ✨🤍 Follow @allyandnicholas for more of our adventures in RV life, for photography offerings, virtual Breath work classes, long distance Reiki sessions + to join our Patreon library of recorded yoga classes ✨

Capturing the beautiful love of the @thebatemanfamily was a sacred reminder of how special it is to capture your growing family moments ✨ Preparing for family sessions can often feel overwhelming (we know from capturing so many and for preparing for our own/capturing our family’s portraits!) But once we begin and the love flows, it’s always amazing how many intricate + heart warming interactions take place second to second. Capturing so many frames + moments of natural connection, authentic moments + organic emotions. So this is your reminder to embrace + trust. Laughs, walks, beautiful conversation, playing in the leaves, embracing the wind + the love, and soaking in the sun created a comfortable + fun environment to connect + flow. We truly loved capturing these moments in time. Moments they can look back on + cherish for generations. When the boys were so excited to run through the nature + explore with curiosity with their parents. This time in their lives that they can look back on + remember the magic that surrounds them + the love that exists between them all. It is so beautiful to witness the growth of love + family. We truly feel blessed to document moments in life. To capture the human experience. How special it is to have the gift of photography in this world. How much we feel + remember from looking at a photo. It’s like time traveling, going back in time + feeling the moments you’ve lived + the memories that lives in your heart 🤍✨🫶🏼 You can view their full session on our blog ✨ www.allyandnicholas.com @allyandnicholas

So grateful for her soul + spirit, for her love of ball, activity + nature + for her emotional intelligence to know exactly how we feel + what we need 🫶🏼🥹

NEW YEAR, NEW JOURNEYS! ✨ The beginning of this year we began a journey that has been a manifestation we have been holding onto for quite some time. 2024 has brought the intuitive pull that it is time to begin our journey of @nicholasgonko becoming a certified Holistic Nutritionist + me becoming a certified Herbalist ✨🌿 We are multi-passionate beings who truly value love + care for others. Photography is one beautiful journey we express that passion. Our well-being, the well-being of our loved ones + the well-being of others is what we value most. Our photography journey of connecting to energy, navigating health challenges + being in tune with what our bodies tell us is what has led us to this point. Nick has always been so passionate about food, nourishment, cooking, exercise + wellness with a background in personal training. And he truly is an incredible chef! If you’ve had the pleasure of being nurtured by Nick through his love of food + nourishment, your heart + belly is the most content. I truly feel so grateful to receive his knowledge + eat all of his creations! My health challenges guided me to become more aware of the power of plant medicine. Becoming a herbal medicine woman, to gain knowledge of tradition + the importance of integrative healing has been a deep soul calling. We couldn’t be more excited to learn + discover more, expand our knowledge, skills + offerings. Becoming RYT200 Yoga Instructors has truly inspired us to continue learning + growing in the realm of holistic health, intuitive healing, traditional medicine + ways we can support ourselves, heal ourselves + help others discover the power that exists within them to heal, to navigate their health each day, become more connected to themselves + incorporate preventative practices. So excited to share more of what we learn + to expand our offerings of wellness + holistic healing ✨

34 ✨ Feeling so incredibly grateful + blessed to receive messages of love + kindness. Thank you, from the depths of my soul, for taking the time to send love + wishes on my arrival day! I’m endlessly thankful to be surrounded by so much love + beautiful energy. On my 30th birthday I vowed to live as naturally as possible after years of “unexplained” nausea, digestive problems, hormone imbalances + extremely painful cycles, some that even brought me to the hospital. After years of medications + worsening symptoms I decided to take control of my temple + dive deeper into understanding myself, my energy + the power of natural healing. I started dedicating my life to healing myself. I started with food. Removing foods, removing toxins in all forms, reading labels, researching ingredients. So much trial + error. But I kept seeing improvements in how I felt physically, mentally + emotionally. Stress + overworking was still hindering me + 2019 was my year of burn out. This led me deep into my yoga practice + my spiritual body. We became certified yoga instructors in early 2020 + that experience transformed me. When I turned 30 two weeks after our training, I made a soul promise to live a conscious + intentional life + remove external attachments. All of this has led me to learn other traditional medicines + healing modalities. For some people my life might seem restricting in how I nourish + care for myself, but for me it feels so good. At 34 I’m feeling the healthiest I’ve ever been. I learned to do the splits at 32 when at 29 I couldn’t believe how inflamed + stiff my body was. I’m more flexible in mind, body + soul. Society tells us we’re old at 30, especially women. They tell us to focus on anti-aging + to begin fighting a natural process. There is so much empowerment, choice + wisdom in getting older. I want to embrace life’s journey with grace, not feel pressured by society’s conditioning. My whole life has changed in 4 years.How I feel, how I live, where I live, what I’m passionate about, how I support myself. Life feels very different + uncertainty is a theme. I’m dedicating 34 to welcoming the unknown with grace + accepting change with curiosity ✨

To my 3-5 Manifestor, Pisces Wife. Who’s day just happens to follow the day we celebrate women. You are the most special woman in my life. Today you’ve been earth side for 34 years, and what a wonderful life it’s been. You have this incredible ability to manifest all that you want and feel most aligned with in your life. You’ve manifested profound life experiences, beautiful friends, turned your passions into work, our precious pup Yogi, and even our very special relationship, which I am beyond grateful for. You’re the most wonderful, capable, and caring human I’ve ever met. You’re incredibly intelligent, deeply emotional, spiritually aligned, and absolutely stunning. I truly believe there is nothing that you cannot do. Witnessing you live your life with such grace has been such a joy of my life. No words can describe how grateful I am to be on this life journey with you. This world is a much better place with you in it and I love you so incredibly much! You are my better half, my twin flame, my wife, and the mother to our fur baby. You are the light of my life. You are the Sun and Moon to me. Happiest Birthday my love! Here’s to another amazing year! 🫶✨😘

This is a common question we receive so we thought we would answer on this platform ✨ Our @weddinglegends workshop is created for all levels of experience from beginners to advanced. This workshop is about gaining fresh perspectives of the connection between energy + photography. Of humans + art. Of light + emotions ✨ Most of those we have mentored have been beginners + many of those who have attended our workshops have been in the early chapters of their art. We’ve also had many experienced photographers attend who have found new artistic inspiration + helpful business advice with new perspectives for expansion in their authenticity. This workshop is for the photographers looking to create solid foundations, be inspired to discover their why + the purpose behind their art + who want to approach their creations with inspiration, connection and a deep understanding of light ✨ We have 3 spots remaining for our final Wedding Legends Workshop.
