Nestled just outside Waterloo, Ontario, Gary and Kim Evans are a dynamic duo in the world of wedding photography. With nearly two decades of experience and hundreds of weddings under their belts, they’ve earned acclaim for their cinematic portraits and mastery of light. Recognized as one of the top 10 Worldwide Wedding Photographers by the One Eye Land Photography Awards and consistently ranked #1 in Canada, Gary and Kim have established themselves as leaders in their field.

Gary and Kim’s partnership is the cornerstone of their success. They bring a unique synergy to their work, each leveraging their distinct strengths. Kim, who manages the business side of things, ensures smooth operations and client satisfaction. Gary, on the other hand, focuses on the creative aspects, from shooting to editing. This clear division of roles allows them to avoid stepping on each other’s toes and ensures that they both have individual wins to celebrate.

Their ability to work seamlessly together extends beyond the professional realm. Kim and Gary believe that their collaborative work dynamic is vital to their personal happiness. They appreciate the shared vision and constant support that comes with working alongside a spouse. Their approach to balancing work and life is intentional; they prioritize family time and personal interests, understanding that a healthy work-life balance is key to sustained creativity and joy in their work.

With years of experience in photography and business under their belts and in addition to their main focus of weddings Gary and Kim are now turning their attention to education.  They have spoken as educators at a number of photography conferences on topics such as off camera flash, tips & tricks to enhance client experience, moving your business from shoot and burn to IPS and their thriving Pop Up Weddings business.   They are continuing to build their education platform to help fellow photographers and offer one on one mentoring to those that need it. In addition to this they also run luxury photography retreats/workshops in various countries across the globe.  Their 2024 retreat will be hosted in France and are already planning their 2025 retreat in Italy.

Gary and Kim’s philosophy centres on creating images that stand the test of time. They are committed to capturing the true essence of each wedding day, focusing on authentic colours and moments rather than fleeting trends. Kim emphasizes that their goal is to produce images that future generations will cherish. Their approach to editing and style is rooted in a desire to preserve the genuine beauty of the day, avoiding trends that may quickly date their work.

Their dedication to creating lasting memories is reflected in their full-service offerings, which include high-quality albums and prints. Gary and Kim see their work as a legacy for their clients, one that extends beyond the immediate moment and into the future.

Kim, originally from Windsor, Ontario, and Gary, hailing from Wales, bring diverse backgrounds to their photography. Their shared experiences and values are evident in their approach to their work. They are committed to providing clients with a memorable and enjoyable experience, driven by a passion for storytelling and an appreciation for the finer details of their craft. Their journey is a testament to the power of collaboration, dedication, and a genuine love for their craft. Gary and Kim Evans continue to inspire with their commitment to excellence and their ability to create images that truly capture the essence of their clients’ special days.
