La Toundra Wedding

La Toundra Wedding Pictures

As a wedding photographer, I absolutely love photographing weddings at venues like La Toundra in Montreal. Located in the heart of the Floralies Gardens in Parc Jean Drapeau, where I’ve photographed so many festivals, La Toundra Hall can host weddings in its beautiful room with large windows overlooking the verdant landscape and the city of Montreal and it’s absolutely perfect for wedding photography.

Couples and their guests can enjoy the beauty of nature as they walk towards the venue and sit inside the glass-walled venue. They can choose to have their wedding ceremony outdoors or inside the stunning building. Always good to have a backup plan!

I’m a Brit living in Montreal with my wife, Evelyne and our three boys, Elliott, Isaac and Jonas! Evelyne and I met in the Alps in 2003 when Evelyne thought she was a cool snowboarder and I thought I was a superstar DJ. We got married in 2007 in Cornwall, England and moved to Canada in 2014.

I photographed my first wedding in 2006 and have now shot almost 500 weddings, mostly in Canada & the UK, but I absolutely love travelling anywhere in the world. I enjoyed it when I started but love my job now more than ever.
