behind
the lens
Hey there, thank you for visiting my website. Since you are reading this, I'm assuming you'd like to get to know me better - thank you for being here!
Born and raised in Quebec, and now living on the East Coast in Nova Scotia, Marie has been developing her love of photography for 10+ years. While pursuing her degree as a Registered Nurse at Dalhousie, she continued photographing the local horseshows during her summers. That love of photography grew, until she realized she could no longer pursue Nursing, and instead dove headfirst into creating Marie Roy Photography. Her photography business has grown naturally as an artform and brand, due to her steadfast commitment to creating unforgettable experiences for her clients.
Marie has been creatively combining her love of equestrian photography with the fine art portraiture, learned over years of wedding experience. Most importantly, she's learned when it's time to step in and take the lead, and when to step back and let a moment happen on it's own. Discovering how to guide a couple just enough to be able to capture those in-between moments - the candid, joyful, natural moments, that truly encapsulate a moment in time.
I am most passionate about family, travel, and all things equestrian.
“It is my greatest honor to capture your most meaningful moments through my artform of photography. With a blend of candid, journalistic moments and chic, cover-worthy portraits - I hope to create a gallery that is a timeless, authentic representation of your love for one-another.”

Sincerely,

Testimonials from our beloved clients...
She was there every step of the way while we were planning and always available for any of our questions or to give an opinion when I needed help.
Professionalism & Highest Quality
The day of our wedding she was so fun and got along great with our families and bridal party, watching her with everyone you'd think she'd met them all before. The work she does is amazing, we are so so happy with our wedding photos. Will definitely get her again when we need a photographer in the future and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a down to earth, easy going, fun photographer!

Marie has been with us to take photos of some of our biggest milestones yet
from bringing home our puppy in February 2019 to getting married this past September. Particularly prior to our wedding Marie was so helpful with vendor suggestions, timeline review and answering my many questions.
​
She made us all feel at ease and comfortable throughout the day, and as I’m far from being a creative/artistic person I really appreciated knowing I could let her take full control and that she would capture the day beautifully. She was wonderful to work with and we wouldn’t hesitate to recommend her to anyone looking for professional photos. We look forward to working with her again once we reach our next milestone!
Michaela & Travis
When you book with Marie, you ensure photography that embodies a dreamland fantasy. She captures precious moments with ease and makes it fun in the process.
In addition, Marie is as radiant as she is talented, and creates an atmosphere where everyone is comfortable and ready for their close up! Could not recommend her enough!
Professionalism, Responsiveness and Quality

I feel so thankful to have had the opportunity to both work and be photographed by Marie...
I reached out to Marie on short notice for a branding session and I could have never hoped for a better outcome. Marie not only made herself available to me at my convenience, but brought all the proper equipment, styling tools and backdrops to make our shoot seamless. Not only was the shoot itself so quick and efficient, so was the delivery process of photos. Marie provided (what felt like almost immediately) the most gorgeous, extensive gallery of branding shots I could have even imagined. As someone who is also generally self conscious in front of a camera, Marie’s kind and professional demeanour calmed all my nerves.
Marie’s skill and work ethic is unmatched. As a wedding florist I’ve also had the absolute pleasure of working with Marie on client projects. Her attention to detail is exactly what every couple should strive for on their wedding day. She is a true gift to our local wedding community.

Photography Style
Marie's photography style is editorial, soft, and has a natural elegance.
​
"I like to suggest a pose or idea to you, and if it feels comfortable, then we go with it. I love capturing movement and emotion, and the best way for me to do that is by photographing the candid moments between poses. My style is easy-going, calm, and natural.
​
My editing style is as simple as my photography. It is light and natural, and will remain timeless over the years. You will look back on your photos years from now, and still find them just as beautiful."
