One of my go-to recommendations for any couple who aren’t fans of being the center of attention or struggle a little with anxiety in front of crowds, is the First Look. If you’re not sure how it works, here are the PROS and CONS around it. You and your partner get a private meeting together before the Wedding ceremony.... You are more relaxed than if you’re in front of a crowd walking down the aisle. You can often schedule some or all of the Bride and Groom portraits after the First Look so there’s less time for your guests to wait later. You both have more time after the Ceremony to enjoy cocktails with your friends and family. So many of my couples say this was one of the best decisions they made for all of the about reasons. Now here’s some of the CONS... If you a traditional type of person, you may want to only see each other when you walk down the aisle. Grooms are sometimes against this idea. You’ll have to get ready much earlier so this can all happen before the Ceremony. There may be some waiting around time in between your First Look and the Ceremony. For me as a photographer, I LOVE to capture these private moments! I find my couples are way more relaxed walking down the aisle and really appreciate having more time to spend with their guests later on. If you’re getting married in 2021 or 2022, I have dates available and would love to chat more about what you’re planning! I’m also offering penalty-free date changes. DM me or call to get in touch. #firstlookwedding #candidphotography #brideandgroomfirstlook #brantfordweddingphotographer #brantfordweddingphotography

When @nutritioncoachjacqui and I were consulting about a Branding session for her online nutrition business, there was an authenticity about the images that just made sense for her brand, and so we knew the location for her shoot had to be at home. The reality is that she lives what she teaches and she communicated that to me very effectively.... Wholesome, nutritious foods, smoothies, fresh fruits and vegetables mixed with exercise - lots of online coaching and her dog Runner, there through every minute. Looking for guidance and some light at the end of your covid pounds tunnel? Check her out, she’s the real deal. #brandingphotography #visualbrandingphotography #brantfordbrandingphotography #hamiltonbrandingphotographer #norfolkbrandingphotographer #localbrandingphotographer #sherrysmithbrandingphotography #showtheworldwhoyouare #letmehelp #highqualityvisuals #websitephotography #socialmediacontent #brantfordbusiness #smallbusinessbranding

Please support local food and beverage creators, Our Kitchen Brantford, Soup for the Soul with your calendar purchase! Photography by yours truly DM me if you want to be a sponsor!!
I’m so excited to share a project that has been very close to my heart these last weeks! A collaboration with Our Kitchen Brantford to create a 2021 Calendar!! If you don’t know about it yet, you need to find out!! It’s a shared kitchen where chefs, home cooks, bakers, caterers and other food and beverage creatives can create a business for themselves by renting space in a commercial kitchen to launch their vision. ... The vibe for the calendar is to highlight some of these incredible food creators and chefs in a gorgeous, colourful visual story for each month.... AND to spread the love and awareness for this awesome kitchen. A portion of the sale of each calendar will go to a local charity! Stay tuned for more on the progress and a ready date for sales!!

If you didn't already know; the gem I was speaking of earlier is Whistling Gardens . If you haven't already been there then you must go! Here are some more stil...ls from the documentary film footage shot for the summer collection shoot (previous was spring) alongside interviewee and longtime photographer Sherry Smith Photography. Cannot wait to piece this story together and colour these amazing clips and interviews!
Challenge Accepted. @jennimudgewinters I’m so grateful to be surrounded by strong, sincere, smart and authentic women. If you don’t have this yet in your life you’re with the wrong tribe.... Let’s build each other up. Let’s support each other. No judgement. No drama. No negativity. #womensupportingwomen #letssupporteachother #gettherighttribe

I literally sit here at my desk smiling from ear to ear when. I’m editing the shots from a receiving line. It’s one of my favourite times of the wedding. Unscripted. Joyous.

Small #intimateweddings have been an important part of my bookings for years before covid hit. There’s so many PROs to a #microwedding... where do I even start? having time to talk to EACH guest... being blue to book a quaint and beautiful venue having more time to relax and enjoy the day save some $$$ you can book it this year Get in touch if you or someone you know wants to have a micro wedding this year. Myself and other photographers will have some wiggle room in their schedules this year because of rebookings for next summer 2021. I have so many recommendations for vendors and venues that I’d love to share. . . . . #intimateweddingphotographer #intimateweddings #brantfordintimateweddings #norfolkintimateweddings #parisintimatewedding
I’ve been so inspired lately hearing about how strong our young adults have been during this pandemic. I don’t have one in my house so I haven’t been aware of some of the struggles and disappointments they’ve been facing - especially the last few weeks facing a last year of high school with no prom and no graduation. Seeing that I can start shooting again as of tomorrow, it made me want to offer our #2020grads limited time Portrait Sessions. They deserve to be celebrated.... Direct message me for the link to book. . . #celebrateyourgrad #gradphotos #brantfordgraduation #brantfordgrad2020 #graduationphotoshoot #brantfordportraits #brantfordphotographer #brantfordphotography #sherrysmithphotography

Very well written and explains everything I can’t put into words rights now.
#tbt Me and @metalheadmafia not too far into our first year together. He stood up in a friend’s wedding party at the Ancaster Mill and I went as his date. I’m it was amazing to go and not have to work!! We had a blast. He may have slept outside under the tree that night?? #unconfirmed... #mylove #loveyoulongtime #partnersincrime #couplelove #fondmemories #littleblackdress #ancastermillwedding #myfavorite #oppositesattract

A month or so ago I felt this overwhelming urge to help. Something - anything! At a time when small businesses were starting this crazy struggle... I just wanted to do my part and if I could help, then I wanted to. A few businesses took me up on an offer to shoot some social content for them... #productshots #porchdropoff #mygift This set up was macgyvered in my living room and I got busy with @teasandtoasts new product launch! ... This sure could be what moving forward looks like for a while. . . . #helpsmallbusinesses #productshots #dougfordletusshootatadistance #letthisbeover #visualbrandingphotography #brandingshots #brantfordbrandingphotography #socialmediacontent #sherrysmithbranding #sherrysmithphotography
I’ve been reviewing some of my older work lately, trying to reorganize what feels like millions of photos... lol! I keep seeing this recurring theme of pin-up, vintage, colourful and whimsical styling in my work. This shot is from about 7 years ago but I still love it! Thanks to one of my favourite muses @rsafavi99 ...

I’m SO missing shooting right now! Missing my clients, Missing connecting with people. I’m so grateful for the women who have reached out to book a future session!

I want to thank all of my amazing clients who give me permission to share their gorgeous images with the world. For every client who says yes to sharing there are 3 who say no. Which is so disappointing because when you’re so proud of this out-of-the-box journey they’ve taken with you and you’re so proud of the beautiful end result... you want to show everyone!! That said, I totally respect and honour any women’s right to privacy. This is something I take very serio...usly. So if you’re wondering about how it works - we sign a Contract starting whether or not they can be used. It’s totally up to you. #righttoprivacy #intimateportraits #intimateportraitsforwomen #doitforyourself #brantfordphotographer #brantfordportraitphotographer #steppingoutofyourcomfortzone #sherrysmithportraitphotography #sherrysmithphotography
I don’t know how to pose. Is the most common thing I hear from women interested in a shoot. Here’s what you need to know... I’m going to tell you everything I want you to do and how to move, right down to your hands. I’m going to help you with ideas for what to bring and how to prepare.... lingerie is not necessary! You’ll probably have a tone of things in your closet that’ll be perfect. We’ll review all of this and more during your consultation meeting. DM me your e-mail address for more information. #intimateportraitphotography #intimateportraitsforwomen #portraitphotographer #brantfordportraitphotographer #lovetheskinyourein #doitforyourself #sherrysmithphotography
Hey y’all. Looking back at this photo of me gave me all the good feels today of a time when I was feeling really good, fresh haircut and a few less pounds than I am now! Lol... #covidsucks That said I made the conscious decision to not spiral down the rabbit hole but instead meet this coming weekend with gratitude.... I’m grateful to be healthy and have a beautiful home I love. ...grateful that my family and friends are in touch virtually so we can connect ...grateful to be able to stay home right now ...grateful for my pets that remind me to be joyous and in the moment ...grateful that the Canadian government is taking appropriate measure to keep us all safe We can do this. This too shall pass. Be grateful.

I really love to incorporate motion into my shoots. Allowing the client to move, dance and run their hands over the skin creates a more natural portrait and helps them to relax more instead of being locked in one position. #intimateportraits #blackandwhitephotography #brantfordportraitphotographer #kwportraitphotographer #londonportraitphotographer ... #hamiltonportraitphotographer #womensportraits #sherrysmithphotography See more

Meals to go from Our Kitchen Brantford!
I just read about this detail that makes Self Employed people ineligible for the CERB. Of course there has to be a catch...
We would have been leaving on Sunday for Cuba. This photo was taken in Havana a few years back. When I look at the I can feel the heat of late afternoon sun, the smell of cigars, the distant sound of salsa music - trumpets, piano, laughter. Ahhhh Cuba, we’ll miss you this spring. . .... . #havana #ilovecuba #nospringvacation #travelphotography #brantfordphotographer #sherrysmithphotography See more
