Giving back to the world we photograph
We photograph a world we deeply love.
We believe that comes with a responsibility
to give back to the landscapes, the forests,
and the living world that makes our work possible.
Rooted in intention.
A tree records every year of its life in a ring.
We think about this when we photograph marriages. Every photograph,
a small ring in the record of a life together. And every tree we plant,
a quiet mark of the years we have spent doing work we love, in a world we love.
OUR Philosophy

Every wedding we photograph takes place somewhere beautiful. A forest clearing. A mountain valley. A coastline where the light does something extraordinary in the late afternoon. These landscapes are not just backdrops, they are participants. They shape the light, the feeling, and the quality of stillness that makes the photographs what they are.
Canada has experienced some of the most devastating wildfire seasons in recorded history. Forests that took centuries to grow have been lost in days. Old growth, habitat, the quiet accumulation of living time that no replanting programme can fully restore, but that we can begin to tend toward.
The Forest Pledge began as a personal commitment: every wedding photographed by Amaire & Co. contributes to planting trees in Canadian forests recovering from wildfire as a practice of giving back to the world that gives us everything.
Over 200 trees have been planted so far. The number grows with every booking, every season, every couple who chooses to be part of this.
