I'm Maranda (middle name Elysse); a fine art wedding & lifestyle photographer who currently resides in Simcoe County.
I photographed my very first wedding at 19 years old, with just a mere 48 hours notice (it's a wild story, you can ask me about it sometime). Needless to say I was completely hooked on weddings from that very moment, and all these years later they still bring me the same level of joy.
My passion for documenting people began when I was in my teenage years; I was the girl in high school with the expensive camera. I lost my father at a young age and was desperate to find and hold onto as many images of him as I could, yet, was left disappointed. This drove me to continue my pursuit of freezing time through imagery for generations to come.
I like to live life simply, and find joy in entertaining family & friends in our home, enjoying quiet date nights with charcuterie and pasta, spending quiet time tending to our gardens, or enjoying a walk to the waterfront with either a dog, chai tea latte or kids in hand (sometimes all three).
When I'm not behind the camera, you'll find me with my husband Chad, my three beautiful boys (Reed, Jude & Finn), and our sweet rescue dog Indie.

"Maranda was absolutely amazing! She was so professional and worked so hard to make sure I had every picture on my mind. Her photos came out looking absolutely beautiful both for engagement sessions and wedding photos! She is also very approachable and makes her clients feel comfortable. Would recommend Maranda Elysse for your special day!"
