Oh, hello!
Our studio provides scaleable photography services, as well as video production services for the individual or for a brand. We started very small – With short comedy films that took us to film festivals around the world, and with portraits for actor friends. While we’ve now graduated to feature films, music videos, and photo shoots for big brands and touring companies, we at our core still very much have our indie sensibilities and love for small stories. We do both, and we do them to our best.
Photography: While we do offer a variety of professional photography packages, we do everything with a personalized touch to ensure you get individual care and a photographer that is totally committed to you. Our clients come to us with a wide variety of subjects, including: family, engagement, wedding, events, babies, pets, corporate figures, real estate, actors, and more. You can come to our comfy Queen West studio, we can bring our studio to you, or we can set up at a sweet studio space in your home town. Yes, we happily travel for our shoots.
Video Production and Digital Content: Our team has been featured at TIFF, The Canadian Film Festival, and are comfortable doing everything from Video Bios, to actor Demo Reels, to original creative content that plays for audiences across North America. If you are looking for video content its best you contact us and we can go over your unique needs.
You can view our work in our video and film portfolio, or on Awkward Silence Productions.
We are committed to giving you the best quality photography and video work. Whether we shoot your headshots, portraits, at your event on location, or help you create your video masterpiece, we treat you as you should treated. No counting the shots or looking at the clock. You receive prices that are kept fair and free of any surprise costs, you’re rewarded with discounts for bringing groups, referrals, and children, and your photos are finished on time. We listen to you throughout the whole process, do our best to keep you comfortable and relaxed with our professional yet laid back atmosphere, and provide great visuals for your brand.
