Sunday Morning Studios began in 2013. What started as a creative pursuit slowly grew into something more — a way for us to meet people, hear their stories, and create beautiful photographs that become part of their lives.
Along the way, our studio grew into a team of people who share a love for photography and have a genuine interest in people and the stories they carry.
We bring more than cameras to every wedding. We bring different perspectives, years of experience, and a shared belief that the best photographs come from being present — paying attention to people, relationships, light, composition, and all the little things happening around us.
More than 13 years in, we’re still here simply because we love it. We feel incredibly lucky that this is what we get to do, and that we get to share it with so many wonderful people.
We’re Belle, Alyson, Gill, Nikko, and Gab — a team of creatives who genuinely love what we do and care deeply about doing it well.
Outside of weddings and shoots, we’re people who enjoy the little things — family, traveling, good conversations, good food, a good cup of coffee (or two), slow days, and making time for the people and things we love.
Before we even pick up our cameras, we take time to understand what matters to each couple. Because no two weddings are ever the same.
We believe in knowing when to guide and when to step back. Part of our job is knowing the difference.
Beyond the photographs themselves, we want the whole experience to feel easy. From our first conversation to the delivery of your photographs, we aim to be organized, responsive, and easy to work with.
We chose the name Sunday Morning Studios because it is a reflection of the work that we do, and how we do it.
Sunday mornings remind us of family, and beautiful, carefree days. On Sundays, we don’t rush. We take our time as we mindfully sip our cup of coffee. Sundays remind us of home – the smell of mom’s cooking, the sound of classic songs playing on the radio. On Sundays, we put our guards down, and enjoy being our truest selves.
Our style is simple and honest. We find balance between unobtrusively giving guidance and allowing moments to naturally unfold while being fully prepared to capture them.
We love the beautiful natural light but are equipped to shoot in low light when needed. Our photographs are bright and crisp with colors that are vibrant and true to life!
Absolutely! We are here to give you gentle guidance for photographs that require a little direction while giving you space to be comfortable. We won’t give directions that feel inauthentic to you.
We do know that your wedding day is not just about the photographs. It’s about fully immersing yourself in the moment, letting your guards down, and just breathing it all in. It’s about looking at each other in the eye when you say your vows, giving the tightest and warmest of hugs to the people who are there, laughing out loud, and dancing to your heart’s content! These moments, after all, make for beautiful photographs that are honest and full of love!
What we learned through a decade (and counting) of shooting weddings is that wedding photographs or weddings in general aren’t supposed to stand out. They are not meant to be the most beautiful, or most different, and out of the box amongst others. It just has to be honest and pure, and beautiful, TO YOU.
We only accept 1 wedding per day!
Yes we do! We have Kindred – our Lifestyle Photography Team to capture life’s milestones, and everything in between! Check out our works here.
Crisp, bright and fresh were the aesthetic we wanted for our wedding photos and we're happy to have found Team SMS as they were able to deliver exactly that. They took the time to get to know not just us, the couple, but our family and friends as well to make our photos look natural and genuine. That made us and our entire entourage extremely at ease - it felt like a friend was taking our pictures.
Our wedding photos are full of laughter, love, and joy which is exactly how we wanted to remember our special day.
We’re so thankful for Belle and the SMS team for keeping everything from preps to reception very easy-going. For two people who hate being in front of the camera (hello, awkwardness! Lol) — we actually enjoyed going through the photos as alot of them were candid and genuine moments of happiness and love. So thankful to have met and worked with the SMS team! Definitely booking them for future family milestones
When I saw my friend’s wedding photos, I instantly knew I wanted Sunday Mornings to be my future wedding photographer. Their pictures are bright and candid, something I, the bride really wanted. Even with minimal posing, the team was able to get beautiful photos! I loved our candid shots too. Overall, we loved working with SMS. I smile everytime I see our wedding photos.
We were looking for a photographer who has that unique eye in capturing us and the event without being staged or dramatic. As a couple, we usually shy away from photos and we don't know how to "act" in front of the camera. I’m so happy we found Sunday Morning Studios as a partner. Belle and her team were so brilliant capturing the moments on how we envisioned it.
Our most favorite wedding supplier!! Ever since I saw your page, I immediately fell in love with your work! You were exactly what we wanted for our photos, light, bright, clean, timeless, and classic. Working with the team was such a breeze. The photos came out so beautifully. If we were to get to married again, we will still choose SMS!
We loved working with the team because they really go the extra mile to get the shots without the couple and the entourage having a hard time. During our big day, Belle and the whole team were very easy to work with, no awkward poses, and the most important moments were captured. The photos came out beautiful, and beyond our expectations! I highly recommend them for couples who want a light, bright, people-and-emotion-focused wedding photos. After a year, I still beam and get teary eyed at the same time seeing the shots from Team SMS!
So professional, so chill and calm, very very easy to work with! We can’t stress enough how happy and satisfied we are because the photos are aaaaabsolutely beautiful!!
Every time we look at these, we are reminded of the emotions, the tears, the laughs and the fun on our wedding day! Ate Belle and to the whole SMS team, we have no words. We are just truly grateful for you, for capturing so many beautiful moments that day between our families and friends. The genuineness in each of the timeless photographs, capturing the beauty of our love, are forever cherished!
