Hello and welcome to my new blog where I’ll be talking about everything photography! I’ll be posting about all of my favourite locations, where to look when selecting wedding attire, meal plans, and even let you in on some of my tips and tricks to give you an inside look at how my photoshoots take place.

The first topic I want to delve into is engagement photoshoots which I offer complimentary if you book a wedding with me. For more information on my packages visit http://www.etangphotography.com/weddingsrates. I recently included a budget-friendly package!

Through a little exploration, I have discovered a number of great locations for engagement shoots scattered throughout the Niagara region. Locations I love include; Oak Garden Theatre, Clifton Hill, Happy Rolph’s, Butterfly Conservatory, Jaycee Park, Decew Falls, St. Johns Conservatory, Niagara Falls, Dufferin Islands, Charles Daley Park, Butler’s Barracks, Niagara-on-the-Lake, Woodend and numerous waterfalls in Hamilton. In the fall time, Short Hills, St. Johns and beside the Butterfly Conservatory are all beautiful.

Regardless of the long list, my all-time favourite location will always be Queenston Heights. Queenston Heights offers variety and a lot of different, breathtaking backdrops to enhance a couple’s newfound love. It is monumental and an important piece of history. I recently had the pleasure of working with a lively couple with who I shared a lot of funny moments. It was fun to challenge myself and see how many different shots I could take, the diverse scenery leaving so much room for creativity.

In the end we had a blast. This is why I love being a photographer in the Niagara area. No matter which direction you drive, there is always a picturesque view right around the corner.
