Welcome to my blog! My name is Melanie Galbrand-Chen and I am the owner and creative force behind Verve Photo Co.

Verve is a boutique wedding and lifestyle photography company based out of Toronto, but available internationally. What this means is I only take a limited amount of weddings per year to give my clients the support and service they deserve. The relationships I build with my clients mean more to me then any accolade or award. Nothing is more rewarding then continuing to share the lives of my clients by documenting their milestones through maternity, baby and family photos years after their nuptials.

Each wedding, milestone or event I shoot is a new and exciting venture, and regardless of race, religion, or orientation, I promise to capture your day with artistry, honor and respect.

Please be sure to check back often, and feel free to comment or share any of my posts with your family and friends. Thanks for stopping by.

Congratulations Gillian + Luke | Singhampton Wedding

Friday, July 11, 2014

There is nothing more special then a wedding on your family’s property, getting ready in your own room, and seeing the grounds transformed into your wedding dream scape. This was the reality for Gillian as she married her love Luke at her family’s home away from home in Singhampton, Ontario. It was a labour of love for all their family and friends who worked so hard to make this day so beautiful and unique. Congratulations to Luke and Gillian, you had the most perfect day!…can’t wait to share more images soon!
