Let me paint a picture of your wedding day in about 20 words:
A day filled with good food,
a little adventure,
a whole lotta’ love…
and two "I Do's" along the way.
Wedding culture has turned this important day into a whole lot of pomp and circumstance; bogged down by obligations, family expectations, and what the industry says you “should” do.
To all of that, you two said “no, thank you… we’ve got something else in mind.” Instead, an elopement. A day YOUR way: Just the two of you, some good food, a little adventure, and a whole lotta’ love. We just LOVE this for you!! As I’m sure you’ve realized by now, with your newfound freedom also comes… Endless possibilities.
There’s so much you can do! SO many options! And… you’re not sure where to start. Where do you go? What do you include? How do you incorporate YOUR things into the mix?
The great news is that you can relax now. Because we know there’s already been a proposal, and we’ve only just met, but we’re going to go out on a limb here and make a proposal of our own:
Let’s craft a wedding day that’s truly significant to you two.
Let’s slow down a little. Let’s be intentional. And let’s celebrate your love story in a way that you’ll remember forever.
Whatever that looks like, whatever that feels like, we're ready to make it a reality for you.
GET IN TOUCH
HEY, we're liz and jason
WE’RE INSTANT-FRIENDS-TURNED-LOVERS. THE YIN TO EACH OTHER’S YANG.
AND WE’RE SO MUCH MORE THAN YOUR PHOTOGRAPHER AND VIDEOGRAPHER.
I’m (Liz) your photographer, your guide, planner-in-crime, uber-organized wing-woman, and the calming yet fun presence you need on an adventure like this one! I’ll capture all your organic moments, planned and unplanned, and tell the story and depth of your love through my lens.
And Jason is your videographer, the out-of-the-box idea generator, the one who will help you come out of your shell and show up as you really are. He will capture the most beautiful, tender, raw moments of your day and stitch them all together with a soundtrack that causes your soul to swell.
To make a long story short: We’re the newest members of team “You Two”. We can come up with a better team name later!
What this means is we’ll be right by your side each step of the way as we craft an intentional day that’s a perfect fit for you two; no obligations or “should’s” in sight.
So whether you want to spend your day biking around Prince Edward County touring wineries, eating all the incredible food along the way, and say ‘I do’ under a harvest moon…
Or you want to head to an off-grid cabin deep in the woods in Muskoka, say ‘I do’ on your favourite hiking trail, then sit on the forest floor with your legs intertwined and backs against the trees, eating a celebratory picnic…
Or you want to sit at the end of the dock huddled under a fuzzy blanket on Manitoulin Island, sipping coffee and saying ‘I do’ as the sun rises and the mist clears over the bay, then head inside to have a cozy movie marathon day…
Or anything in between…
We can’t wait to help design a day that fits you just the way you fit each other:
Perfectly, like a deep exhale, like there’s no other choice in the whole world.
AT THE ORGANIC MOMENT, LOVE IN ALL ITS BEAUTIFUL FORMS IS EMBRACED AND CELEBRATED!
While you may see “you two” throughout this website, we believe that love transcends societal norms. We extend our warmest welcome to couples of diverse relationships, including but not limited to monogamous, polyamorous, polygamous, same-sex, and gender-diverse partnerships.
We also believe that love is love and wholeheartedly embrace and celebrate the LGBTQIA2S+ community.
Our top priority is creating a safe and inclusive space to celebrate your love in its fullest expression. We are committed to capturing the authentic connection you share and ensuring your love story is portrayed with the utmost care and respect.
If you're considering different options...stop now. These are the folks you want!
Liz & Jason are just....THE BEST!!! Seriously, they are so warm, kind, and flexible. And their photography/videography? It's next level!! My wife and I so much enjoyed our photoshoot on top of a mountain. Like AMAZING!!! It's so cool that The Organic Moment exists to capture the most important moments in the most extravagant places.

For someone who is very camera shy, I felt at ease.
Liz was incredible to work with! She was able to capture so many of our special moments in such a beautiful and candid way, we didn’t even notice she was there! Nothing felt over staged, the photos look natural, not stiff. She was also incredibly fun and helpful when doing our couple only photos. I was also so impressed with how creative she was able to get when we weren’t able to shoot outside, she made the most of the space! I can't recommend her enough!
- Jessica
On top of capturing beautiful, organic moments of you two, we'll also…
Help you plan your entire day from start to finish, filled with the things that are important to you two.
Provide a customized elopement guide filled with local activities and cool things to do that will help make planning a breeze (and give you some extra inspo).
Provide unlimited planning assistance with locations, vendors, and permits so you don’t have to worry about a thing
Craft and coordinate a custom timeline of your day so that it goes off without a hitch and you always know what’s happening when (like I said… uber organization wing-womxn to the rescue!)
Scout all locations in advance (and prepare some backups juuuust in case the weather doesn’t cooperate with what we’ve got planned) so you get the absolute best photo moments every step of the way
Organize a custom photo list for your guests so that we capture all the important shots (that’s if you’re bringing some folks along)
Deliver about 10 sneak peek photos within 48 hours of your day so that you don’t have to worry about documenting any of it and still get to share the love with your family and friends as soon as possible
Craft a customized album to be print, bound, and passed on from generation to generation (so if you don’t have design skills, don’t stress — your album will look amazing)
Plus...
We’re also going to show Ontario some love in the process
When you choose to work with US, you’re choosing to work with a sustainable TEAM.
As a duo that travels all around this beautiful province, we strongly believe in protecting it at all costs and giving back to it in whatever ways we can. That’s why, in addition to following the Leave No Trace principles and leaving no trace of our adventures, we take a number of steps to ensure our business (and therefore your wedding day) is as sustainable as possible:
Every elopement means new trees planted — whichever day of the month you get married on, we plant that number of trees in your name! (Or, if there’s another number that’s more significant to you two, we can plant that number of trees instead!)
Albums are printed on museum-grade, fine-art paper meant to last for generations (so they won’t degrade over the coming decades like most printed works), and all loose-leaf prints are printed on high-quality, recycled paper.
Our fine art prints, standard & classic albums are made locally in Toronto, which means no overseas shipping. This also ensures high levels of quality control, and all packaging is 100% compostable, free of plastic and harmful inks.
We source and recommend sustainable vendors — like florists that plant their own flowers and/or source from communal gardens (i.e don’t ship off-season flowers in from other locations), and plant-based caterers — just to name a few options!
Your elopement guide comes complete with ways you can make your day even more sustainable if you so choose… like renting your dress instead of buying, or staying in an eco-friendly Airbnb (we’ve curated a private list that you’ll definitely love.)
AND EVEN MORE!
We take care of all of this so that you don’t have to, and you get to choose which additions (if any) feel right to include in your day.
WE HIGHLY RECOMMEND ADDING VIDEOGRAPHY TO YOUR ELOPEMENT.
You’ll get to see how you reached for one another, hands shaking, and laced your fingers together just as you have a thousand times before.
The moment your eyes connected and you shared a deep breath and exhale, trying to steady yourselves.
You’ll forever be able to hear each other speak your vows over and over again. The sacred promises you made to each other will always be there at the press of a button in good times, and in bad — whenever you need a reminder of just how much love lives between you on your wild journey through life and marriage together.
Even the most intentionally planned elopement day goes by so fast. You will be caught up in the moment soaking in the best day of your life, and before you know it, the day will be done.
Adding videography will ensure that you get to relive your day over and over.
And you can get a beautiful, custom video album to keep on your coffee table, set on your nightstand, or sit up on the shelf, ready to be played any time, any day.
WHILE YOU CAN WORK WITH US FOR PHOTOS ONLY…
When we got married, we didn’t include video and it’s something that breaks our hearts to this day.

THE PROCESS
IS THIS STILL SOUNDING PERFECT?
Here’s a high-level rundown of what happens from here:
01 FIRST
Fill out the contact form and tell us a few things about you two, your love story, and your vision for your elopement.
02 next
We’ll review your form (while doing a happy dance) and send over a link for you to book an initial call so we can meet on Zoom! Unless we’re in the middle of documenting some epic love stories, we typically respond in 48 hours :)
03 THEN
On the call, we’ll get to know each other so you can decide if we’re a great addition to team “You Two” (better team name still pending). If you find that we are, we’ll send over the paperwork to make it official!
04 next up
Planning begins!! We’ll communicate through email and Zoom over the coming months as we plan and craft your day to perfection.
05 finally
We’ll meet up the night before your elopement, have a beer or a tea, and get comfortable with each other in real life before the big day. Then we’ll head to bed because in the morning… we’ve got an adventure to go on, and you two have some I Do’s to say! Click here to get in touch and fill out the form.
NOWHERE IS OUT OF BOUNDS
If you want to elope anywhere in Ontario, we'll meet you there!
Ontario is big and beautiful, and there are gems hidden in every pocket of the province.
Whether we’re meeting in Prince Edward County, Muskoka, Toronto, Killarney, Niagara-On-The-Lake, Tobermory, or anywhere in between, our travel is always included in our packages.

FREQUENTLY ASKED
NOW YOU MIGHT BE WONDERING...
Please, please do bring your dogs. Or your cat that loves adventuring. They are more than welcome to join and we would love that so so much.
Yes! We’re happy to help plan an elopement that includes up to 8 guests.
Absolutely! The best part about us working together is that we help you with allll of the things, which totally includes lodging. AND, the elopement guide that we send over to you will be specific to the area you’re eloping in, which means it’s packed full of local activities, restaurants, sights, etc.
Great question! There are two options here:
The first option is going through the regular process of getting a marriage license, hiring someone that is ordained to join us for the vow exchange portion of the day, and using us as your witnesses (or coordinating one other person to act as a witness if doing photo-only). Don’t worry, we’ll help you find and coordinate these people!
The second option is that this day can be the day where you “unofficially” (ie, not legally) tie the knot, say your vows just the two of you, and you do the “official”, legal tying of the knot separately — at a courthouse, or similar, on another day.
This is where we come in! We’ll get on a call and talk about the vision that you have for your day. Once we have a better idea of what you’re looking for and if you’re including guests or not, we’ll be able to recommend the package that will suit you best. You DON’T have to know which one you want before you fill out the contact form.
You will receive at least 50 photos per package hour, maybe more. It all depends on what exactly we’re doing that day! I promise you’ll have gorgeous photos of every special moment throughout the day, and there will be plenty of them.
