Our Story
We believe photographs are powerful memories that capture some of life's biggest moments.
Our goal, as wedding storytellers, is driven by what makes you unique as a couple. We know that momentous moments in life bring together all the most important people in our lives. Knowing this, we strive to understand what is important to you and we spend the time to get to know you to ensure we capture all the romantic, fun and emotional moments of one of the most important days of your life. Our style of wedding photography is deeply rooted in wedding photojournalism, influenced by fine-art and fashion photography. The result is creative, clean and crisp wedding artistry that’s romantic, fun, and emotional. We pride ourselves on not just being photographers, but rather artists creating unique and expressive imagery.
Our Process
01
Planning
Prior to your wedding day we will meet to understand what is important to you and make sure your experience is everything you want it to be. We create a full plan, must-have photo lists, scheduling, preferred style and more. A review session close to your wedding date is included to keep your day worry-free.
02
Shooting
Enjoy your wedding day celebrating precious moments without worrying about your photos. We stay on schedule, take care of all the must-have photos, and capturing special candid moments with your guests. We are a team of personable photographers who will make sure your day is stress-free and fun!
03
Editing
After your wedding day we edit your photos with your selected signature editing style. We focus our editing process based on your preferences, whether that is high definition, vibrant and crisp or light and airy. We always strive to ensure delivered photos are everything you dreamed of.
04
Printing
Relive your wedding day with family and friends at an album reveal party and celebrate memories that will last a lifetime with beautiful framed prints or a printed album. We make sharing your digital photos easy by providing all images through an online gallery with non-watermarked, easily downloadable photos.

Photographer
Shak
Hey! I am your potential professional third wheel. Fun fact about me - there is a very good chance I might dance at your wedding! When I see families and friends come together at weddings to celebrate their love and support for each other, it makes me emotional and genuinely happy. I want to show others through my photography, that no matter what, love really is the thing that brings and holds everyone together - and that is what’s truly valuable.

Isabella
I have been taking photos all my life but my real passion began when I learned film photography in high school. Time spent in the dark room and learning the basics was crucial to the start of my long photography career. I preach authenticity in my photos and always looking for candid photos that often go unnoticed. I love to bring out the best in others and very much looking forward to capturing your special day and the moments you may have otherwise missed!

Hey! Just your friendly neighborhood goofy gal with a camera checking in! I was born to capture magical memories with my lens. Whether it be at a concert screaming along with my favourite band, or capturing the once in a lifetime moment of a father walking his daughter down the aisle. I'm here for it, and I can't wait to capture yours!
Videographer
Fahim
I'm a wedding filmmaker based out of Toronto City, and I love my work. About 4 years ago I was asked to film my first wedding, and I fell in love with it right away. I loved capturing the emotion, the details, and the love portrayed the entire day of each special couple. I consider my career to be one of the most rewarding career, giving me the opportunity to film love as it happens. Your wedding is incredibly important and my goal as your videographer is to capture it in its best light. in other words, my job is to make your wedding look even better on film.

FAQ
Do you deliver every image you shoot?
No. We eliminate duplicate images, test shots, missed focused shots, shots with bad expressions and other images that may dilute the overall product delivery. For example, because we shoot with low apertures, sometimes we take a few extra shots to make sure we have the perfect focus. We don’t expect you to have the expertise or the time to zoom into each image to select the one with the sharpest focus, so we spend hours doing that on our end. In another example, candid laughs and emotional tears are some of the best images from the day. Unfortunately, they can also yield some unflattering facial expressions. We might snap a few extras of any of these moments to make sure we have a great shot with the ideal expression for the moment. With our expertise of processing millions of images each year, we may eliminate ones that we feel are duplicates and only deliver the best one.
How many images do you deliver from an engagement session?
We typically deliver anywhere from 50-70 images per 3-hour engagement shoot. Keep in mind these numbers may increase or decrease depending on the flow of the day and the number of events/activities needing to be captured.
How many images do you deliver from a wedding?
We typically deliver anywhere from 60-80 images per hour of your wedding. Keep in mind these numbers may increase or decrease depending on the flow of the day and the number of events/activities needing to be captured.
When can we expect to see our photos?
Post-production services for wedding photography takes 6-8 weeks after the date of the shoot. All other photography services are delivered in 4-6 weeks. If you require the images to be provided sooner, a rush process fee will be charged.
Do you provide the RAW image files?
Each of our packages comes with a full resolution image download. However, we typically do not provide RAW (unprocessed) files from our shoots because we believe in delivering a finished product. In fact, we’re often shooting with the end (post-produced) product in mind. However, on occasion, we may provide RAW images along with our post-produced JPG’s for an additional fee and restrictions.
How long does it take to get my album?
As with our other products, production times vary. However, you can typically expect to receive your album 6 weeks after placing the order. The process prior to placing the order varies in duration depending on how quickly you respond to the instructions for the album design as well as the number of changes you request after the initial designs. Some brides complete this within a month or two; others take over a year.
What happens if we go over the contracted amount of time?
We understand that not everything goes as planned during a wedding. We never pack up before the contracted time, and moreover, we’re not leaving on the dot when the contracted time is up. Instead, we will ask you at the end of your contracted time whether or not you would like to extend. If you would like us to stay, we will charge the rates specified in your contract rounded to the closest 30-minute increment. We’ve dedicated the entire day to your wedding, so we won’t be racing off to catch other plans that evening. However, we need to charge for additional coverage primarily because there are costs of having the team stay for additional hours. The shooters and lighting assistants all require additional compensation. Furthermore, the additional photos taken will need to be post-produced which adds to our overall costs.
If we cancel the wedding, will we receive our retainer fee back?
Unfortunately no. Retainer fees are used to reserve your date. Once we’ve reserved your date, we do not accept new clients for your date.
Does your studio offer other types of photography services?
Yes, we have experience in many fields of photography. We offer headshots, individual portraits, family portraits, newborn shoots, commercial photography and more. Contact us or explore our website to see details on our other services.
Does your studio provide videography services?
Yes. Learn more and see our videography work here.
Testimonials
Shak, thank you so much for capturing our maternity memories, my wife and I are not very good at photo shoots, but you made it so easy and fun! I am impressed by how you managed to help us get the right posture and light without even noticing this was happening. You made what I usually find boring so much fun!! Now we know who to hire every time we want to capture any important memories!! I highly recommend Studio Six for any photography needs; you will get an absolutely professional and talented product while having a lot of fun and working with easygoing and friendly people that care as much as you to make the moment unforgettable.
Absolutely LOVED our experience with Shak for our maternity shoot! We had connected a few times regarding the kind of looks and pictures I wanted, and he was so incredibly helpful with pulling it all together for me. He took my opinion into consideration (which I really appreciate) and made us feel super comfortable during the shoot. Mind you, it was extremely cold the day of the shoot, so he was kind enough to let me wear my jacket in between shots as well (which was really sweet). As far as the pictures go, they turned better than I had even anticipated! My friends and family loved them! I'm so glad we got to capture this milestone with such beautiful pictures to look back on.
I’ve worked with Shakil professionally on set as well as personally for my own headshots. Shakil is a true professional, timely, creative, and his positive energy makes all his clients feel comfortable in front of the camera. It’s a pleasure working with him.
Our wedding was memorable thanks to our amazing photographer Shak! He captured the best moments of our wedding, in a natural and fun way.

Very good experience. Shakil put us at ease for a more than successful wedding photoshoot. Thanks again. We do not regret our choice! Très bonne expérience. Shakil nous a mis à l’aise pour une séance photo mariage plus que réussie. Encore merci . Nous ne regrettons pas notre choix.
Shakil was a blessing to have as a photographer on our wedding day. He was very helpful in guiding us to get great shots. Personally i am quite camera shy but Shakil managed to help us pose and position ourselves in orders to get some VOGUE worthy shots. I would recommend him to anyone who wants amazing memories of their special occasions. His good mood, communication and smile are only a fraction of what you can expect on your special day.
Like he was part of the family! We are so glad we choose studio six photography! Shak and his team were super friendly, caring and understanding towards our vision! Not only did they meet our vision that exceeded! They brought joy ,laughter, friendship to our day! Couldn’t felt more blessed finding them!
Simply Awesome!!!!! Studio Six did such an amazing work for my wedding day (Nikkah). He captured every detail and emotions! The amount of time he was able to give us in making this day even more memorable, simply not enough words can be said to be thankful.. He was so easy to work with. All the guests loved him. His work speaks volumes on his dedication and creativity. Thank you soooooooooo much Studio Six!!!!! You are the best.
Shakil was great to work with and all of our friends and family loved having him! he managed to get genuine laughs out of everyone and captured the day so beautifully. He is a professional guy and it felt like he was celebrating the wedding with us.
Talented, professional and passionate about what they do. We worked with Shak for our engagement photos and were so happy with our experience and results. My now hubby is not really into posing or photo shoots but Shaq made him feel so comfortable and at ease, they went and had their own little photo session while I was getting ready! The pictures turned out so beautiful, we had a tough time picking just one to use for our invites. Thanks for everything! XO
