Reviews for barebonephoto




Emma truly is an artist!! My husband and I knew we did not want your average, run of the mill "posey" wedding pics. We are unconventional ourselves, so why would we want conventional photography?
When we saw the gallery of images during our first appointment at Barebonephoto we were astounded. Such stunning lighting and unique staging is not something that you see on many wedding photos...it didn't take long till we knew we were in the right place!
Emma's professionalism is surpassed only by her creative eye, and we cannot stop raving about how great she is. We've only seen teaser pics of our day so far, but, I know the full package will be just as stunning!
People joke about those large scale framed portraits...and who would want "THAT" on their wall??? Well, I'd be proud to put ANY of Emma's work on my wall...whether I'm the subject or not.
Choose Barebonephoto and your wedding pics will be unique, fun, and absolutely gorgeous!

When we first booked Emma at Barebonephoto, we were excited by the different style she offered and the excellence of her work. We never thought that she would actually be able to outdo herself in every way! Our experience with Emma was great, she was fun and made us feel comfortable and in good hands, no small feet when dealing with two people that are usually very camera shy. We look forward to having future occasions to work with Emma!

Emma was great. At our wedding, she was in control without being dictatorial, and was able to put everyone at ease and laughing. The pictures were beautiful and we could tell a lot of care and attention went into our photos and the packaging. We are already recommending her to all our engaged friends.

Emma from Barebone photo was absolutely fantastic! my husband and I used her to document our wedding this past August. Truly professional with her work, and an absolute joy to work with.She is amazingly creative! She made the process of picking and using a wedding photographer easy! Neither my husband nor I really love having our photos taken, but she made it so much fun we didn't want to stop. And the results show that! We had a blast, with the outcome being that we can't even pick our favourites, there are far too many!Sarah Pell, married august 8th, 2009

Deciding to have Barebone Photo document our wedding was one of the best decisions we made for our wedding day. Emma's photography is unlike any other. Candid, emotional, vivid and beautiful. She is a true artist and a true visionary. We not only ended up with gorgeous photos documenting our wedding day, we came away with pieces of personal art for the walls of our home. At the end of the day, the photos are your memories...with Emma's photos, I will always remember how perfect our wedding was.

It was an absolute joy to work with Emma. Our engagement shoot was the most fun we've had in front of a camera, this coming from two very camera shy people! By the time our wedding day came it felt like having an old friend shooting our photos. As for the photos, they speak for themselves. They are beautiful, unique, elegant and fun. Exactly what we were looking for! Choosing barebonephoto to shoot our wedding was THE best decision we made. We'll definitely find a reason to work with Emma again in the future.

Barebonephoto was amazing! Emma and her crew were fantastic! They were never intrusive and took beautiful, thoughtful pictures that reflect both the personalities of myself and my husband but also of our family members. The pictures that Barebonephoto took are truly a treasure.

Emma captured the most candid, stunning and artistic moments imaginable during our Casa Loma Wedding on June 13, 2009. As someone who is extremely camera shy, I clearly remember that one of my biggest fears going into the wedding was the photography aspect. From the moment we met Emma (and subsequently worked with her during our engagement shoot), that fear was gone and I realized just how much fun this was going to be!!! Emma's open personality and her contagious sense of humor made all the difference in the world! Our photos have an amazingly candid and intimate quality - and I think the secret may be the complete balance between her artistic vision, her technical skill and her incredible ability to connect with her subjects. Thanks Emma!

I have found barebonephoto online when I was randomly looking for a photographer to capture myself, boyfriend (at the time) and our two little Yorkies. The pictures were beyond amazing and we knew Emma would be our wedding photographer when the time came. Shortly after we got engaged and Emma was booked as soon as we reserved the venue. All pictures look beautiful, candid and natural. I had a huge dilemma deciding which ones to display in our new home! We can't wait for barebonephoto to capture us once the family grows further.

Emma was absolutely amazing. I wanted the wedding photos to read like a story from the beginning of the day to the end and that is exactly what we got. We were looking for something different and unique not the typical posed wedding picutres. We are thrilled with our pictures and love them all, it is so hard to pick the ones we want to print. Emma made everyone feel so comfortable, we had a blast getting the pictures taken. Emma also did our save the date magnets as well as our thank-you notes as a postcard. She also posts the pictures on an online gallery that is very user friendly and allows you to decide everything you want from your photo: size, colour and cropping. This was the best money we spent on the wedding by far.

Choosing Barebonephoto was one of the best wedding decisions! Emma was so easy going and we really just trusted her to do her thing - and we were not disappointed! The photos are gorgeous and everyone I know is oowing and awing over them! We will have those gorgeous photos to last us forever - they and she was worth every penny!

Emma did a great job and the photos were fantastic. She does a photo journalistic / candid style (i.e. photographs you without you really being aware of it rather than having all posed photos). This worked perfectly for us as neither of us like posing or can produce natural smiles on demand! Also Emma is a lovely lady who is a lot of fun.Only very minor issue was that it took a little longer to get our photos than initially discussed but well worth the wait.I'd definitely recommend Emma / Barebone
How can you not love a photographer who not only makes you look like a rockstar but simultaneously knows you better than you seem to know yourself. Emma's imagery is captivating, edgy and perfectly poignant. I just LOVE having her as the Photographer at my clients weddings because I know they'll be thrilled and not stressed on their big day!

Emma is a fabulous photographer who has a unique style and her clients just love her. She is also a fabulous trainer and "pay it forward" person for other photographers. Barebone Photography is definitely a hi-end choice for couples.
Emma's photographs look like dreamy paintings and they are so beautiful. I think any creative couple would be rewarded with such memorable shots of their wedding day.
Emma at Barbone Photography has to be the most creative, unique, passionate and professional wedding photographer I have ever met. I am super picky about photographers and Emma meets my standards and then some. She captures the true essence of people when she takes a picture. Her photos are truly keepsakes for years to come.
