Thank you.

Thank you so much for being here. I truly feel honoured that you have contacted me to photograph you and your person!

Isn’t love phenomenal? To find someone who feels like home, someone who you can grow with through bright days and grey days; that is a gift.

We often wait for big moments and events to celebrate love, but the truth is that love deserves to be celebrated every single day. It is found in the small moments; the cup of tea waiting for you when you get out of bed, the mid-day text that says “I can’t wait to see you later”, the hug when you reunite at the end of the day.

It’s all so special, and I would be incredibly happy to help you document this beautiful connection you share!

This is about you and your story.

It blows me away when I stop to think about how someone can walk into your world and change the course of your life forever with their kindness and care. One of my favourite writers, Yung Pueblo, talks about finding a partner who “…can accept you as you are but also inspires you to evolve because they take their own growth seriously. Love will not seek to change you, but it will embrace you so unconditionally that you will feel safe enough to heal the old and put effort into the new. The courage you both have to stay committed to the inner journey will reflect brightly on your relationship; all the good qualities that you develop as empowered individuals will help you calmly, compassionately and creatively handle the challenges you may face as a couple. Because you both know that growing is not easy, you will warmly support each other when one of you feels down and rejoice when victorious steps forward have been taken.”

This is what I aim to document; it’s more than you and your partner running around on a beach with me during golden hour - it’s about capturing the way you come together as complex individuals to support each other and build one another up. It’s about trust and vulnerability. It’s about coming together as a team.

And I’ll be there cheering you on during the entire documentation of your love!

Frequently Asked Questions

Where are you based?

I am currently based in Aachen, Germany; however, I also spend parts of the year in Halifax, Canada. There’s a high chance that travel costs won’t be as steep as you think. My current travel dates can be viewed here; if your desired date falls a little bit outside these dates, don’t stress! Just let me know! If your booking is made far enough in advance, there’s a super high chance my travel dates are still flexible.

How does booking and payment work?

When you book me, upon signing the session contract, you are required to pay the booking deposit/retainer. Your date is then secure! The only way to secure a date is to pay a deposit and sign a contract. To keep things simple, travel fees and taxes are included in the grand total. Once the deposit is paid, the remaining balance is due 30 days prior to the session date.

Do you have backup gear?

Yes, absolutely! Your images are also backed up to multiple hard drives to keep them safe.

How are the images delivered?

Your images are delivered to you in an online gallery, with both high-resolution and low-resolution jpegs available for download and printing.

When are the images delivered?

Your sneak peek images are delivered first, in gallery format. These are delivered within the first week or two following your session. Your final online gallery will be delivered within 6 weeks following your session.

What’s next?

Take some time to think about what type of session would best suit your needs. I’m happy to chat about it with you if you’re unsure! Once you’ve made your decision, send me an email at hello@sydneymaclennan.com so we can find a date. Once we have a date, I’ll send you the contract to make it official! Then the fun really begins!
