Photography Locations in Toronto

***The content on this page is quite a mess right now so please, don’t judge too harshly!  When converting our blog from our old URL to this URL a few months ago, this content was all lost (gasp) and we’ve been working very hard to restore it, format it and make it look pretty!  Hundreds of hours of work have gone into obtaining this information so please bear with us as we format it, add missing information, and make it look as pretty as the rest of the site does.  ***

Toronto, as well as the GTA, is an amazing location for wedding and engagement photos as there are so many locations to choose from!  Toronto has gardens and trees, architecture, waterfront, farmland and everything in between – no matter what your photographic needs are, there’s a location in Toronto for your photo session.

There are many well-known places in Toronto for wedding and engagement photography as well as some hidden gems.  Some of the locations require permits while others are free.  There are pros to choosing a location that requires a permit so please, don’t disregard a location simply because a permit may be necessary.

Some of the locations listed below are outdoor-only locations while others allow indoor photography (which is perfect for a rainy wedding day!).  Not all the locations listed below are suitable for large groups, such as family photos on a wedding day so before having your heart set on a particular location, take a moment to consider the number of people that will need to be photographed there.

Finally, wedding (or engagement) photography in harsh sunlight is not ideal which is why I’ve included information about the best time of day to photograph at that location.  (If you’re lucky enough to be having your photos taken on an overcast day, any time of day would then be suitable since an overcast day is a photographers dream but since no one can control the weather, I figured I’d throw in my 2-cents about the best time of day for each location)

An Important Note to other Wedding Vendors and Professionals: If you would like to showcase this information on your website or blog, I ask that you do not copy and paste the information but simply link to this site.  While there are many other lists for Toronto wedding photography locations out there on the web, we were the very first to include information regarding location suitability for large groups as well as information regarding the best time of day to visit.  Like our photo, we like having all of our work credited to us – so please, be the professionals your clients expect you to be and do not simply copy the info below but link to it appropriately.  Thank you.

Hi Sacha!

The content was lost when we transferred our blog from our old URL to this new one – I apologize for the inconvenience.
We’ve been working long and hard to get the contact back up in tip-top shape. Hopefully all that is here will help you out for now but we will continue to add to it.
Thanks!
