ABOUT - Chantal Davidson Photography

I attended the Aegean Center for the Fine Arts for silver and digital photography. Located in Paros, Greece, we spent a month in Italy, traveling to learn about art history with a more hands-on approach. My approach to small weddings and elopements came from my time in Greece. This is where I fell in love with storytelling, using light and shadows within a photo. I learned that landscapes can help tell a story and that photographing people is more about capturing their emotions, movement, and essence than getting them to stand still and yell cheese.

My style

Authentic moments

I photograph your day as it happens. I am all about those natural candid moments.

I will give you directions and prompts as needed. My focus is on telling your story including the details and landscapes.

light

Light is the basis of my photography. It influences how I photograph a scene, the composition, the mood, and the editing of the images. I photograph in all types of light; bright, harsh, low-light, astrophotography, and artificial light.

creative approach

The photos in your gallery should be a reflection of you, your personality, and your relationship. I want to turn your special moments into art for you to enjoy for the rest of your life.

B&W film + Polaroids

There is something beautiful about seeing moments captured using B&W film and Polaroids. There is a timeless quality to them that draws people to them. You can add B&W film and polaroids to any package/session.

kind words

Chantal was super helpful from start to finish. Not only did she explain all the photography details but also helped us by suggesting places and helping out on the day of the wedding. She is great and easy to work with, she was always quick to respond to any inquiries and super easy to contact. All the pictures came out beautifully and she delivered them timely!

Isabel & Tyler

My husband and I had the pleasure to be photographed in Banff by Chantal in summer of 2019. Chantal is not only an amazing photographer, but soo friendly and fun to be around, we spent extra hour or two after session sipping coffee and chatting. 📷
She makes you laugh and lets you soak in those in-between moments(my favorite photos!). It was freezing with wind gusts I almost flew away, but you could barely tell in photos because we are all laughs having a great time 📷
If you are looking for more than beautiful photos, rain or shine Chantal is your girl! 📷
