About

On WeddingWire since 2024

Last update: November 2024

Acrewood - Intimate Weddings + Elopements (aka Gen) is a wedding photography business in Ottawa, Ontario. I'm all about capturing the moments that, even 20 years from now, you can look at and feel all over again—whether it's an intimate wedding, a spontaneous elopement, or those beautifully chaotic slices of family life.

Services Offered

Acrewood specializes in Intimate Weddings + Elopements. My style of photography is all about telling your story in the most authentic way possible. I blend cinematic storytelling with a documentary style, focusing on the real, raw emotions that make your day memorable. What sets me apart is my approach. Stiff poses or forced smiles are not my jam! Instead, I create a space where you can be fully present with the people you love, letting the unscripted moments unfold naturally. I'm a big believer that those quiet, in-between moments tell the most profound stories.

Trust and connection come first. When we take the time to truly get to know each other, we can let our guard down and create something significant that genuinely reflects who you are as a couple.

Amazing experience

Gen’s approach is super warm and friendly as well as super professional! Her talent is amazing, she knows how to capture great human and artsy shots that come off as modern and up to date! We can feel the love and the atmosphere of the evening in her pictures! We can tell that she takes her clients’ needs into account! I would totally recommend Gen as a wedding (and any other event) photographer! Thank you again!

Blown away by vow renewal photos!

We’ve worked with Gen a few times now, and every time we’re blown away by how she captures exactly who we are. We’re high-school sweethearts, and we wanted to do a little vow renewal involving our kids —something small and meaningful. Gen took the time to really listen to what we envisioned and somehow brought it to life better than we ever imagined.

She captured the big moments but also the little ones we didn’t even realize were happening, until after we saw the gallery. One of our favourite parts was getting the album. We’d always meant to print one when we first got married, but life got in the way, and it just kept getting pushed off. The quality is stunning, and it’s so special knowing we have something to show our kids when they’re older. Plus, Gen took care of everything, so we didn’t even have to think about it!

Hey, I’m Gen! Your new BFF, go-to girl for all your wedding questions, and forever cheerleader. I’m a mama to two wild toddlers, two chunky cats, wife to a goofy frenchman, and a lover of early mornings, chasing light, and bonfires (honestly, I could smell like one forever). I’m here to capture the real moments of your love story—the ones that make your heart race and your eyes well up.

Working with me feels like hanging out with an old friend—no awkward posing, no forced smiles. We’ll laugh, be silly, get emotional, go with the flow, and capture the genuine moments that make your celebration uniquely you. If you’re looking for something more traditional, I’m probably not your girl.

My style is all about storytelling—capturing the real, the raw, the messy, and everything in between. At the heart of it, all I want is to bring that feeling of home into the work I create. The feeling that everything feels right and you’re exactly where you should be with the people you love the most.
