Your love is one-of-a-kind. Whether you're celebrating an anniversary, feeling adventurous, or looking to mark your engagement, you deserve a photographer who'll make sure the photos are worthy of the moment -- and ones you'll cherish for years. As a photographer for over 10 years, and a professional lifestyle portrait photographer since 2018, I bring a down-to-earth, no-fuss approach to every couples and engagement shoot -- so you can relax and trust that everything's taken care of. I bring a documentary approach to couples/engagement photography -- which means I don't hold back when it comes to giving you all the photos from the session. I'm always looking for the story-within-the-love story: the scrunched-nose laughter at your loved one's terrible jokes, the moment when you're gazing into each other's eyes and forget the camera's there. With all my couples, the goal is to have a session where you feel like you're hanging out with an old friend -- so you can be authentically you. Looking for a wedding photographer, too? I've got you covered! Have a look at my Half-Day and Full-Day Wedding Packages on my portfolio.

Hi! I'm Emma Rossum. I'm a professional photographer and designer based in Victoria, BC. Since 2018, I've helped couples capture the biggest days of their lives, turning weddings, elopements, and engagement sessions into beautiful time capsules you'll cherish for years. My photography approach is to look for the story within each moment. I'm all about finding the beauty in the chaos of life. If you're looking for a photographer who will capture the candid moments when you're seeing your love all fancied up for the first time, or you're busting a move with your best friends on the dance floor, or you're wiping away the tears of happiness in a quiet moment with your life partner, you've come to the right place.
If you are looking for a full day wedding package, it means you want to capture as many special moments as possible...which this package is perfect for. By the end of the day, I will have over 400 photos of your wedding day to send you later on. That's so many that you could spend another 12 hours just looking at all of them! My full day wedding package is for those people who don't want extremely edited and enhanced photos. What you want is the real deal. You want the pictures where you look like you so you can easily recall that memory. You want real images taken in an artistic, documentary style of before, during, and after the ceremony. Just because the wedding ceremony is over, doesn't mean the happiness and love stops. You want to be able to look at those photos --the laughs and smiles shared with family and friends-- just as much as the actual ceremony itself. That's why you want the full day package, and that is who it is for.

WEDDINGS + ELOPEMENTS HAVE CHANGED! So throw out whatever rulebook you've shackled yourself to! You are 100% allowed to get creative on your day and I'm here to help you. Whether that's a couple hours of fun alone time between the ceremony + reception or a whole day of planning... I GOTCHU BOO! Booking with me means we can think outside the box and really create the day of your dreams.

This half day wedding package is perfect for anyone wanting lots of pictures to look back on after your special day, but maybe not of the entire day. You want to focus more on the memorable parts and not necessarily have documentation of the very beginning and very end. However, you still want lots and lots of photos! My half day wedding package is for those people who don't want extremely edited and enhanced photos. What you want is the real deal. You want the pictures where you look like you so you can easily recall that memory. You want real images taken in an artistic, documentary style of the ceremony, you and your loved ones, and the reception afterwards. The big moments, like the reception, are the times where you are the most excited and nervous. I understand that it can be hard to remember every single moment because of that, which is why you want this package. I will capture those moments so you can always remember them! That's why you want the half day package, and that is who it is for.
