amandasarahcherish B.A. McMaster University My passion begins with YOU. I then attended Brock University in order to become a secondary Fine Art Teacher. Your memories. Your story.

At a very young age my parents could tell that I saw the world differently and expressed what I saw through art. As I grew older I continued to express my creativity by studying fine arts in both high school and university. In pursuit of mastering my artistic skills and creative eye, I attended the Ontario College of Art and Design (OCAD) and later attended McMaster University to finish my fine art degree. After working in many mediums (drawing, painting and printmaking) and successfully becoming an art teacher, I decided to use this knowledge to strengthen my photographic skills and portfolio. This small hobby grew into a passionate lifestyle. I willingly began photographing every event I could; I did not want to put my camera down and brought it everywhere (this is still true)! Through photography I am able to candidly capture life and tell a story through frames.

Postcards from Porto, Portugal.

Porto, and the art of paying attention.

I could spend hours looking out over these terracotta rooftops. Following their lines, watching the light catch the tiles, noticing how each shade and texture becomes part of the landscape.

Travel feeds my creativity by inviting me to slow down and look a little longer. To explore a different perspective. To notice how light and composition can turn an ordinary moment into something I want to remember.

That inspiration comes home with me. It shapes how I see your story, too. The light falling across your face. The setting that holds meaning for you. The fleeting moments that deserve to be preserved.

Every time I return to Europe, something in me shifts, and something settles. There is discovery here, alongside a deep sense of belonging. Especially in Portugal, where my heritage feels close enough to touch.

My roots. My inspiration. A feeling of home.

And those rooftops. Always those rooftops.

The people you choose to stand beside you become part of how you remember your wedding day.

The laughter that puts you at ease. The hands gathering your train. The familiar faces you look for before taking that next step.

In Malta, sage satin against warm limestone made a beautiful backdrop. But it was the energy between these women that brought the photographs to life. Bouquets in the air, arms around one another, and room to be completely themselves.

When I photograph your wedding, I’m looking for those connections, too. Because your story includes the people who make you feel most like you.

Here’s to your bridesmaids, bringing the calm, the confidence, and just the right amount of chaos.

An ode to Malta, and the Mediterranean Sea we call home.

This May, Hayley + Ethelbert joined me along the Maltese coastline to celebrate this chapter before their wedding.

Surrounded by sculptural limestone and brilliant blues, their engagement session became a celebration of love, landscape, and our shared heritage.

Movement, space, and composition brought an editorial sensibility to their story. Flowing fabric against rugged stone. Quiet closeness against an endless horizon. Malta’s brilliant colours alongside the timeless beauty of black and white.

Photographing your story means honouring the places that are part of it. The landscapes you know, the roots you carry, and the feeling of belonging somewhere.

Hard light and an editorial eye.

Shimmering heels, polished shoes, delicate flowers and their chosen fragrances, framed by the Maltese sunshine, warm stone and that brilliant blue water.

Inspired by editorial campaigns for some of our favourite brands, we embraced hard light, sculptural shadows and intentional composition to give their wedding details an editorial moment by the pool.

Every piece belongs to their story. Their taste, their thoughtful choices, the little things they put on before seeing each other.

There is art in all of it.

The sweep of a dress. A glance over the shoulder. Two people moving through a moment that belongs entirely to them.

I have always been drawn to movement in photographs. The way a veil catches the air, the way a dress fills the frame, the way a little blur can bring you right back to how it felt to be there.

Composition gives those fleeting moments a place to live. It lets us see the beauty in a gesture that might have lasted only a second. Together, movement and composition turn a memory into something you can return to again and again.

That is what I want your wedding imagery to be.

Art.

Full of feeling, unmistakably yours, and beautiful enough to be framed, displayed, and shared with the people you love.

Portugal felt like both a discovery and a homecoming.

For the first time, I explored the places connected to my Portuguese heritage. I wandered with my camera, following the light across buildings, watching people move through the streets, and noticing the small moments that make a place feel alive.

This is how I find inspiration for your wedding day. It is artistic training in its purest, most natural form: being curious, paying attention, and letting the world surprise me.

When I arrive to photograph your celebration, I bring that same way of seeing. I want to notice the beauty of where you are, the people who have shaped your story, and the moments you may be too swept up to see for yourself.

Portugal reminded me how much there is to discover when I slow down and look. I cannot wait to see your world through that lens.

Keep looking forward.

This journey continues to teach me more about myself every single day. What I am capable of, how much I can persevere, and how much bigger I am willing to dream.

And believe it or not, I am grateful for the challenges and setbacks too. The moments that did not go as planned. The closed doors. The uncertainty. Because somehow, those moments have taught me just as much as the beautiful ones.

Last year, my word was BELIEVE.

This year, it is SOAR.

I carry them both with me now.

Believe in yourself. Believe in the things you cannot see yet. Believe that the path you are carving is leading somewhere meaningful.

And then have the courage to soar.

Rick Rubin wrote, “The person who makes something today isn’t the same person who returns to the work tomorrow.”

I love that reminder. We are constantly becoming. Every experience, every challenge, every beautiful opportunity changes us a little.

I am beyond grateful for every person who has supported me, believed in me, trusted me, and continues to inspire me to carve my own path in this world.

I do not know exactly where this journey will take me, but I know I am dreaming bigger than I ever imagined I would.

There is so much ahead.

I just have to keep looking that way.

There is so much of a wedding day that happens quietly.

A sister carefully placing her veil.
A mother fastening a bracelet around her wrist.
Ch*****ne by the pool under the Maltese sun.
Laughter, dresses being adjusted, bouquets passed around.

Some moments feel significant as they are happening. Others feel completely ordinary.

And somehow, years later, it is often the ordinary ones that become everything.

Sara and Dan’s wedding in Malta was filled with these beautiful contrasts. Celebration and tenderness, surrounded by the people who know and love you most.

These are the photographs I never want to overlook.

Because one day, a photograph of your mother fastening your bracelet may mean more than you ever imagined.
