Helping couples in Montreal and Ottawa just be themselves since 2005.
Low-stress, Candid Wedding Photography and Videography
We help camera-shy and low-key couples enjoy their wedding day and look great in their photos — without stress or posing pressure.
There’s no sugar-coating this: weddings are stressful
You’re excited about your wedding but you’re also somewhere between mildly uncomfortable and absolutely terrified about having to be on camera. Am I close?
You’re not alone! This is something most couples go through. You’re going to spend the next 6 to 18 months stressing out about finances, flowers, dresses and guest lists. Then, once everything is in place, you have to spend the whole day being photographed. What do you do? Do you smile? What do you do with your hands? Just the thought of it is enough to make people nervous.
Here’s the thing about looking good in photos: being photogenic has much less to do with your physical appearance than people think. It’s about your state of mind. People look good in photos when they feel photogenic. It’s just a question of confidence. With the right guide, you can look as effortlessly relaxed on camera as a professional model!
We’ve been proudly serving wedding clients in the Montreal and Ottawa areas and beyond for over 20 years, offering high-quality, low-stress wedding photography and event photography.
Wedding Photography That Tells Your Story — Naturally
Welcome to CM Images, a wedding photography studio serving Montreal, Ottawa, and surrounding areas across Quebec and Ontario. We specialize in documentary-style wedding photography. What does that mean? It means photography designed for couples like you who want photos that feel like them without feeling like you have to put on a show.
Our approach is simple. We provide a calm and relaxed experience that allows you to just be yourselves. The most meaningful photos happen when you’re not posing. That’s why we focus on candid photography that highlights the laughter, the tears, and everything in between. Whether it’s the quiet moment before the ceremony, a stolen glance during the vows, or the dance floor chaos at the end of the night — our goal is to tell the complete story of your wedding day as it unfolds naturally.
You want your story told as completely as possible. This is the reason why we decided to introduce something you won’t find just anywhere: we offer a service called hybrid-video coverage. This means you get a memorable highlight film that feels like part of your day — without the expense or intrusion of a separate videographer! Our goal is to make your day as stress-free as we can and a great way to do this is to make sure there aren’t too many cooks in the kitchen.
At CM Images, we don’t manufacture moments. We preserve them so that you can look back years later and remember how real and joyful they felt. You can enjoy your wedding day without the feeling of being watched or like you have to perform. The result? An album of genuine, timeless images that will bring you back to the emotions of your day, again and again. You’ll be able to look back and feel the day, not just see it.
We’re proud to serve couples in Montreal, Ottawa, and beyond by providing a professional, memorable wedding photography experience that reflects your story — exactly as it happened. Whether you're planning a large celebration in the city, a small elopement in the countryside, or anything in between, we’re here to document it with care and artistry.
Looking for a wedding photographer in Montreal or Ottawa who values connection and experiences over perfection? One who can capture the moments you’ll love without the stress you fear? Let’s talk about making your day one to remember!

“Corey was absolutely amazing for our wedding! From start to finish, he was professional, friendly, and attentive to every detail. He captured the most beautiful moments, and the photos turned out perfect. Corey made us feel comfortable in front of the camera, despite us both being camera shy. I can’t recommend him enough!”

“Corey was fantastic to work with! As soon as we did our engament shoot with him, we snagged him for our wedding and do not regret it. He'll do his best to make sure you've got genuine smiles from some cheesy jokes and helps you along the way if you're not as comfortable in front of the camera. We're so thankful his work captured our special day!”

“Hiring CM Images was an easy choice, the way he captures the moments in each photo amazed us. We hired him based on his style of photography and he didn't disappoint. He kept in contact with us the whole year since we hired him and was very flexible even in this time of Covid-19, we our plans changed and so did our location a couple of times. If you want someone professional and can really capture the love in each photo, CM Images is for you!”

"Corey helped us to find a beautiful location for our engagement photoshoot (Willson Carbide ruins in Gatineau). Corey was very accommodating with booking a time and day for our shoot and came all the way from Montreal for our shoot. During the hike to the ruins, we were able to casually talk and get to know one another which made us more confident and comfortable when we were able to get in front of the camera."

"Before our engagement photo shoot, Corey sent us a few tips on how to pose in front of a camera which helped prepare us for our session. He is very accommodating and patient since I had to reschedule a few times. He recommended a great spot and had fun with different backgrounds. The pictures turned out great! Our family and friends love them! He's very talented. His photos captured our best moments. Highly recommended!"

“Corey and Chantal were fantastic! They made me and my husband feel heard about what we were looking for. Corey is extremely professional and goes out of his way to make sure he gets the perfect shot. He was very flexible and worked amazingly with my bridal party. Chantal was so empathetic and sweet, she took the time to make sure I was feeling okay and that I was comfortable. Overall, a great team to have been by our side on our wedding day!”
