Dyad Imagery presents itself as an Ottawa documentary wedding photographer serving Ottawa, Quebec City and Canadian destinations. Its current website focuses on unforced moments, emotional connections and wedding-day observation rather than extensive staging. The business says it has documented weddings since 2012 and describes its work as intentional, honest storytelling.

This profile was last reviewed on August 8, 2026. The official website confirms the Dyad Imagery name, active wedding services, current starting prices and a direct inquiry channel. It does not publish a street address or telephone number, so neither has been carried forward from older directory information.

Services and specialization

Dyad Imagery specializes in documentary wedding photography. Its stated approach is to observe events patiently and let moments develop naturally, with an emphasis on relationships, emotion and the quieter parts of a wedding day. The website identifies Yves as the photographer and founder and describes Dyad as a husband-and-wife team.

The wedding experience includes two photographers, pre-wedding consultations, vendor recommendations, timeline preparation, a preview gallery within seven days and a full-resolution online gallery. The website also discusses private digital galleries and optional heirloom products, including albums and fine-art prints. These are documented service features rather than independent assessments of image quality.

Wedding coverage and customization

The published base collections provide either six or eight hours of coverage. Dyad says the photography experience is customized around the venue, schedule and the amount of time couples want to spend with guests. Additional coverage can be purchased by the hour, while the website invites couples with different timing needs to request a custom package.

An engagement session is included with the eight-hour collection and is also published as a separate add-on. Other listed options include a 10-by-10 heirloom album, 35mm film and rehearsal-dinner coverage. The website says a fuller add-on list is available by inquiry, so couples should not assume the public page contains every available product or condition.

Service area and who it may suit

The official site names Ottawa and Quebec City as its principal markets and also advertises coverage for Canadian destinations. It does not publish a current studio or mailing address. Couples should therefore confirm travel arrangements, any travel fees and whether their venue falls within standard coverage before booking.

The approach may suit couples looking for candid, emotionally focused photographs while spending more of the day participating in events rather than posing. Dyad’s website says the business serves all body types and ethnicities and supports the LGBTQIA2S+ community. A French-language version of the website is also available; couples who require service in French should confirm the language arrangements for consultations and wedding-day coverage.

Confirmed strengths and practical limitations

Documented strengths include transparent starting prices, two-photographer coverage, consultation and timeline support, a seven-day preview target, full-resolution online delivery and several physical or analogue add-ons. The site also states that Dyad accepts only a limited number of weddings each year, which indicates that availability should be checked early.

Practical limitations arise from details that are not published. The website does not state the exact number of weddings accepted annually, the final-gallery delivery time, a guaranteed image count, travel fees, tax treatment or detailed cancellation and rescheduling terms. It also provides no public street address or phone number. These omissions are items to clarify directly, not evidence of a service problem.

Confirmed: limited annual wedding bookings
Confirmed: preview gallery within seven days
Confirmed: two photographers and full-resolution gallery
Not published: final-gallery turnaround or image count
Not published: travel charges, taxes or detailed contract terms
Not published: street address or telephone number

Contact and booking

Couples can inquire through the official contact form or email hello@dyadimagery.com. The contact page asks prospective clients to share information about their relationship and wedding plans, making it sensible to include the date, venue, required coverage, guest-count context and any interest in film, albums or engagement photography.

Dyad says it responds within a few hours during business hours, Monday through Friday from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m., and advises checking spam or junk folders if no response arrives within 24 hours. Availability is not displayed publicly, and the website notes that only a limited number of weddings are accepted each year.

What couples should confirm

Before signing, ask which named photographers will attend, whether two-photographer coverage applies throughout the full booking, and exactly what is included in the selected collection. Confirm the delivery schedule for both preview and final galleries, expected editing scope, backup procedures, file access period, print permissions and album revision process.

The written quote should also identify taxes, travel and accommodation costs, overtime rules, deposits, payment dates, rescheduling and cancellation terms. Couples planning an elopement, a Quebec City event or another Canadian destination should verify location-specific logistics and French-language requirements. Reviewing complete galleries from celebrations with similar lighting, season and venue conditions will provide more context than highlight images alone.
