Capturing your life’s moments one unhurried minute at a time!
For me, I want to create images that really reflect the personality of my clients – the people they are and not the people I want them to be. This philosophy is reflected in the way I interact with my clients when I photograph them.

We couldn’t have asked for a better photographer for our wedding. Despite the complications we faced with our original venue, Elyse was incredibly supportive every step of the way. She truly took the time to understand our vision and brought it to life in the most beautiful and meaningful way. She was so incredible that we even asked her to photograph our wedding outside of her typical region so she could come to our new venue with us, and we’re so glad she was able to do this for us.Her communication was excellent throughout the entire process, she was always open to feedback, quick to respond, and genuinely listened to what we wanted. On the day of the wedding, she made us feel comfortable and confident, and it really shows in the photos.The final images exceeded our expectations. Every special moment was captured so naturally and artistically, and we’ll cherish them forever. If we could give more stars, we absolutely would. Elyse puts so much time and effort into making sure your vision comes to life, and it truly shows in her work.We are so grateful we chose Elyse as our photographer, and we will absolutely be staying connected with her for any future photography needs. Highly recommend! More...

She made the photos fun for all involved and was able to roll with any distractions and changes and easily took suggestions for shot ideas. When a member of the bridal party got injured, Elyse quickly put down the camera and jumped in to help. When we received our we were blown away by how they looked.

Elyse and her husband as support were such a great choice to shoot our little cottage wedding! They brought the best vibes and energy to our day and helped us feel less awkward getting our photos taken. My goal was to get one print worthy photo and we ended up with sooo many to choose from that I love. I would hire them again for any occasion. More...

We booked Elyse for our August 2025 wedding, and we cannot recommend her enough! From the moment we reached out, she was professional, kind, inviting and easy to talk to. We first had our engagement shoot with her, and my now husband and I were both nervous (& fairly awkward lol) but Elyse made us feel so comfortable, and captured our love beautifully. Moving to the wedding day, Elyse & Will jumped right in on the morning of, and kept everything organized, and running on time. Without Will, I am really not sure how the guys would've been wrangled and organized.... haha. Due to weather, we had to make adjustments to our day, and Elyse & Will did it with ease. We have such a large and energetic group of family and friends, and although chaotic (due to our group) Elyse and Will handled all the group shots in a way that made it look easy. Elyse is truly so talented, and you can tell that she loves what she does as it is evident in her work. When we received both of our galleries back, we were so impressed and shocked by the way she captured our love and relationship. These are photos that we are going to cherish forever, that we will show our future family, and that will hang on the walls in our home for years to come. We are so thankful to Due North Photography for capturing us, and we would recommend booking with Elyse to anyone who is looking for a photographer. She truly has mastered her art. Thank you so much, Elyse! More...

My husband and I did some pretty extensive research on local photographers when we got engaged to make sure we would land a great photographer to do both our engagement and Wedding photos. The search lead us to Elyse, and we couldn't be happier with our decision. While we were a little intimidated initially as we both arent big on being infront of the camera, from our first interaction with Elyse we were instantly comfortable. We actually couldn't believe the shots that came from a 15 minute session. Fast forward to our wedding, and one of the most important aspects to us for the day was really taking in the moments, enjoying every aspect of the day and not spending a lot of time doing photos or any prep work on the day itself. Elyse completely respected this and still somehow managed to get every single photo we could have wanted with our family and friends, and even managed to sneak us out for not more than 10 minutes at sunset which lead to the most breathtaking wedding photos i've ever seen. We couldn't recommend Elyse enough, her bubbly and energetic personality really is just the icing on the cake that allows you to put forward your best self infront of the camera! We will be using Due North for all of our growing family photos to come :). More...

We had the honour of having Elyse (and Will) capture our wedding day this past October and it had to have been one of the best decisions we made. She did an absolutely incredible job capturing our wedding day that even after a month we’re still going through the photos again and again just in awe of them. Her and Will have personalities that are just infectious, they are so so fun to work with. They handle chaotic families, crazy heat, unexpected delays with such professionalism! We had an unfortunate circumstance come from a past venue and Elyse stuck her foot out to help us navigate through it all, something we greatly appreciated but really demonstrated her commitment to her clients above just taking photos for them. She has an amazing, creative, artistic mind when it comes to her photos. We will always remember the best details of our wedding day because of the amazing photos we have now, they will be cherished forever! Really could not recommend Due North Photography enough! More...

Our wedding is scheduled for late August of 2025. Neither my fiance or I have ever really been comfortable in front of the camera, so doing research on local photographers for our big day felt like we were going into the process a little blind. We chose Elyse based on her online portfolio feeling like a great fit for the vibe we want to achieve, as well as based on the rave reviews. Our first shoot was our engagement shoot that happened to line up well with the date Elyse had booked the coach house in Barrie. We went into the shoot pretty nervous as a) we're not comfortable in front of a camera and b) didn't understand how it was possible to get any good photos over a 30 minute session given how long it would take to make us comfortable. I'm happy to say our worries were completely squashed after we saw the sneak peak of our photos that Elyse sent out incredibly quickly after our shoot! I feel like we hit the jackpot with Elyse being our photographer, making us feel so comfortable throughout the entire process. Can not wait to see the shots from our big day!!! More...

WEDDING. ELOPEMENT. ANNIVERSARY. ENGAGEMENT. PROPOSAL. JUST BECAUSE. LOVE IS LOVE.
LOVE. It’s all encapsulating. Whether you’re about to pop the question, have said YES and are now looking for the photographer with the “right fit” to capture your day (elopement/intimate or all out), or are simply celebrating your love for each other, I’m excited for you.
I specialize in elopements, luxe pop-up weddings and intimate ceremonies for the romantics; for couples who love doing things a little differently.
Documenting the love between people is incredible and I feel so grateful to photograph it all in the most beautiful places around Simcoe County.
I cannot wait to hear your story.
