The story of a wedding day can continue to be told The story of a wedding day can continue to be told from so many different moments + perspectives. The many emotions. The details. The movement. The people. 

What a special experience it is to capture so many moments of love ✨
Building a deep connection with a couple is our pr Building a deep connection with a couple is our primary focus when capturing soul love. 

Having a deep connection with our beautiful brother @stephengonko + his beautiful partner @emilymargaretphotographs is so special + allowed us to flow around + with their love. 

We love these two so so so much. Being a part of their journey, watching them build their life together + witnessing their love deepen over the years has been a blessing. 

Our hearts are full of gratitude getting to capture the soul connection of our siblings. Being a part of their life moments is so meaningful. Moments we can look back on + cherish as family. 

Capturing soul love in the magic tones + light of Sedona + Scottsdale ignites the soul. 

We went out one night us 6 siblings together to capture each other’s soul connections + it literally had our hearts bursting. To share the love of photography with both of your sister-in-laws + your siblings is something we are eternally grateful for. 

These two have so much excitement + beauty to experience as they continue building their life. Emily’s art + business continues to grow. Mentoring her has brought all of us closer together which has showed us the power of connection + blessings photography continues to give 🤍
The number of beautiful hikes in Sedona are endles The number of beautiful hikes in Sedona are endless ✨

If traveling to Sedona, we recommend visiting the vortexes (especially Cathedral Rock and Bell Rock) and the caves to explore. Leave no trace, respect Mother Earth + enjoy so many incredible day hikes! This hike is on the Soldier’s Pass Trail past the 7 Sacred Pools. 

Save this post to remember this hike or share with friends + family coming to visit the sacred land of Sedona ✨🏜🫶🏼
Learning + exploring breath work has been a monume Learning + exploring breath work has been a monumental + transformative experience of my life.

I always say that if we have the ability to control our breath we have the ability to control our state of being. It’s a powerful thought + one that guided me to becoming a certified practitioner.
 

We breathe all day everyday + we can utilize breath work to achieve certain desired states of being. We can practice before, during, and after to maximize our daily movement. We can utilize breath work when we’re stressed + anxious. We can utilize breath work when we’re upset or angry. We can utilize breath work at anytime throughout the day, when in need + looking to desire the benefits. 

I am trained in Ancient + Modern Breath practices. It has been an exciting journey using the various breath techniques to improve the life of myself + my students. I have enjoyed putting different sequences together that combine both Pranayama + Modern practices that are providing beautiful healing results. 

I’m going to be sharing more about what I’ve learned + hope to be able to inspire + support anyone else exploring their breath work + health journey.

Look out for some of my offerings I’ll be sharing about soon, including group zoom breath classes, one on one sessions, and future events.

One of the best parts of our time in Arizona so fa One of the best parts of our time in Arizona so far has been sharing it with family + friends. We’ve been so fortunate to have our siblings down the mountains, to have my parents come to visit, to have friends fly in for visits + to meet up with friends from Canada who planned trips to AZ! 

Brianne + Mitch happened to have planned a trip to AZ while we were here + we knew we had to capture their souls in the beautiful energy of Sedona. Bri + Mitch are friends of ours from Ontario who we haven’t seen in a long time. It was so incredibly good for the soul to connect with them, share time together, capture their soul connection + to witness them experience the breathtaking beauty of Sedona. 

This was their first time having photos taken. Our hearts + souls love seeing couples grow more comfortable + confident as sessions continue to flow. How they ease into one another, soak in each other’s energy + embrace their own. We get to literally witness + capture a couples energy expansion throughout a session 🥹

If you’ve been photographed by us, you know our commentary is high vibes + full a lot of MMMMMMs and YEEEEEESSSSSS ✨✨✨ Because we literally cannot help ourselves from expressing the energy we feel from you. To reflect back to you. And show you how beautiful your soul is. Because your soul is beautiful. And your love is beautiful. And you should have moments that you can touch, feel + see to be reminded of that ❤️

Photographing in Sedona is so healing. Thank you for allowing us to swoon over your soul love in such a tranquil energy B + M ✨🤍✨

Celebrating 11 Years together today + feeling beyo Celebrating 11 Years together today + feeling beyond grateful for one another, the life we are living + the people we share life with 🤍

Last year when we celebrated 10 years we couldn’t have imagined life would have aligned how it has, to be celebrating 11 years in Arizona, in a new beautiful lifestyle, with new journeys + an even deeper connection with one another. We are feeling so blessed to know incredibly kind souls who inspire us, encourage us + share their lives with us. 

We celebrate + honour the day we started dating the most because we feel like that is the day that started it all. The day that both of our lives changed for the better. 

A lot of people ask us how we met + most assume we met as photographers. We actually met the Drake Hotel in Toronto before our photography journey began + we both felt an instant connection. 

@nicholasgonko moved to Tokyo the week after we met so months passed before we connected again. He came to my hometown with some friends when he returned + we just knew our connection was karmic. Our souls are deeply connected in ways we are still discovering. 

We know the universe brought us together to build life together, to be each other’s mirrors to help us evolve, to create together, challenge one another + support one another in this life.

11 years together has us aligned in this path of energy like we just met all over again. Almost like we’re living our first year together over again, but in new ways to build a new chapter of our story. The joy is high, the love is deep + the unknown is exciting ✨

We are so thankful to our family, friends, communities, couples + all the wonderful souls we’ve met for sharing in our journey 🤍

A big thank you to @taylorannephotographs for capturing our souls! ❤️ rebrand photos captured by our incredibly talented sister in law + edited using our new @allyandnicholaspresets presets that we will be sharing with our launch ✨

Follow along at @allyandnicholas + @allyandnicholaspresets to stay tuned for our new offerings coming soon ✨🙏🏼
Celebrating our first month in Arizona ✨ We fel Celebrating our first month in Arizona ✨

We fell in love with Arizona the first time we visited last year + knew we had to come back for a season. Spending more time here has us feeling like we’ll be spending a lot more time here in the future ✨🌵🏜

We love + are so grateful that RV life led us to the beautiful nature of AZ
For us, the biggest challenge of RV life also happ For us, the biggest challenge of RV life also happens to be the most beautiful benefit. 

Unstable internet connections and adapting to different environments + climates are challenges to navigate in nomad life. But these challenges are also our favourite part of life on the road. 

Being able to disconnect from online life + experience so many different climates, lifestyles, landscapes + environments is the best part about life on the road. 

Having to adapt to changing environments teaches us more about ourselves, about life + to live in tune with natural cycles. 

We went from a cool Ontario fall, to hot humid weather in Florida, to unusual cold + some snowy weather in Arizona. 

Since we’ve been in AZ we’ve had warm days + days below zero. We’ve woken up with a frozen hose which means we’ve had no running water until the hose thaws. We fill up our tank to prepare so that we can use the pump to have showers + use water before the thaw. We have to be prepared for wind, storms, snow, heat. 

We’ve been stuck in a tornado in Nebraska, wind storms in Texas, a snow + wind storm in AZ, and a wind storm in New Mexico which left us with broken slide covers + a closet that fell a part + ripped out the electrical in our bedroom. 

Although these were challenges to learn from, adapting to new environments allows us to experience new parts of the world, explore nature, live in different climates + new energies. These experiences have taught us to live in a deeper connection with natural rhythms, showed us the power of nature, taught us how to be more prepared + encourages us to have new experiences. 

The duality of life seems to be the biggest lesson of acceptance these past years. Amplified in each season. Hardships + blessings, pain + joy, grief + celebration, light + shadows, it all co-exists together. 

The duality of life has been our hardest lesson to learn from. Traveling + living nomadically teaches us to grow from the shadows, find love in the hardships + celebrate the joy. 

Life truly is a journey. One of seasons. Of changing emotions. There is peace in accepting + growing with the duality of life, and that’s what travel life has taught us so far ✨
Shannon + Travis allowed us the honour to capture Shannon + Travis allowed us the honour to capture their connection, natural interaction + movement. They invited us into their energy, the ways they interact+ flow with one another. 

They share a connection that has taught us grace, understanding, support + growing together. Their journey has taught us the beauty + power of loving self + one another through dark times + beautiful times. Of finding the love through the navigation of life challenges. They have taught us how to be more vulnerable + open. To communicate honestly. That life + love can be raw, beautiful, intense, painful + magic all at once, and that life can happen in seasons. 

Shannon + Travis continue to teach us the gentle grace that can be harnessed when navigating the duality of life, the strength in vulnerability + resilience, to embrace hope, to trust + surrender to blessings,  even during the most challenging moments of our lives.

This evening together will forever be remembered in our hearts as an evening of hope, of honouring their connection, expressing gratitude for their soul evolution + for sharing their soul energy with us 🤍
