BECAUSE your special day needs to be captured beautifully
Your wedding day isn't just a collection of beautiful details — it's the people you love, the anticipation before you walk down the aisle, the laughter you didn't know I was photographing, the hugs, the happy tears and all those little moments happening in between.
As a Toronto and Durham Region wedding photographer, my approach is a blend of beautifully guided portraits and genuine, unscripted moments.
I'll help you when you need direction, step back when the moment speaks for itself, and thoughtfully document your wedding day so that years from now, your photographs don't just show you what everything looked like — they remind you exactly how it felt.
Based in Pickering, Ontario, Memories by Alexa Photography offers wedding photography throughout Durham Region, Toronto and the Greater Toronto Area, including Ajax, Whitby, Oshawa, Bowmanville, Scarborough, Markham and surrounding communities.

Toronto & Durham Region Wedding Photographer
Romantic. Timeless. Completely You.
The Process
1. Say Hello
You've found your person — now let's make sure you've found your photographer too. 🤍
Tell me about the two of you, your wedding date, venue and everything you're dreaming about for your celebration.
Once I confirm that your date is available, we'll chat about which photography collection fits your wedding best.
Your wedding date is officially reserved once your contract is signed and your retainer is received.
Beautiful wedding photographs start well before the wedding day.
We'll talk through your timeline, important family photographs, locations, lighting and all the little details that can help your photography run smoothly.
You'll receive guidance from me along the way so that when your wedding day arrives, you can focus on the part that really matters:
getting married.
2. planning
This is it. 🤍
I'll arrive ready to document everything from the meaningful details and beautifully guided portraits to the completely unplanned moments unfolding around you.
When direction is needed, I'll give it.
When a moment needs space, I'll quietly capture it.
Your only job is to enjoy your wedding.
3. wedding day
Because waiting to see your wedding photographs is HARD.
You'll receive a collection of sneak peeks shortly after your wedding so you can relive a few favourite moments while I begin carefully working through the rest of your story.
4. after the session - The Sneak Peeks
Your final photographs will be professionally edited in the timeless style you see throughout my work and delivered in a beautiful private online gallery.
From the quiet beginning of your day to the celebration at the end, you'll have a collection of photographs created to help you remember it all.
Not just next year.

Frequently Asked Questions

"We had our newborn session with Simina and let me tell you that she is absolutely Amazing! So warm and kind and most importantly : absolutely great with babies. She has the magic touch, as our baby let her swaddle him and change his outfit, without complaining, although he hates swaddling and changing his clothes in general. The photos turned out great. She worked with us and our ideas and we now have some great memories to print :) Thank you for everything, magic lady! We'll see you next time for our next family session.|
"We had an outdoor maternity shoot and indoor baby shoot with Simina. She is an absolutely pleasure to work with, she is very accommodating and delivers high quality work. I was amazed how calm & composed she was especially during baby shoot. Just like a true baby whisperer, she rocked my baby, gently swaddled him and captured such a peaceful photos, thank you! She is extremely professional and experienced, which helped us enjoy both sessions and cherish those moments forever, I highly recommend her to anyone."
"If you are looking to perfectly capture your family milestone moments, look no further! Simina was an absolute pleasure to work with from start to finish. Booking with her was seamless as was her flexibility when our baby came a few days early. As for the session Simina is a baby whisperer! She was able to calm our little one and get him in the zone so we could capture all the different poses we were hoping for and more. Finally the edits - WOW! With so many images to choose from it was hard to narrow down because we loved them all. Once we did the final products we got were amazing. We will cherish them for a lifetime. Thank you so much Simina; we look forward to the next session! :)"
"My family and I have had amazing experiences with Simina. She has incredible communication skills before and after the shoot as well as very accommodating and flexible. Her photos are beautiful. We had so much fun at our maternity shoot and she even posted a sneak peak a few hours later! (which is always so fun!). Do not hesitate to book with Simina, photos are so important to growing families!"
