Mel & Jon were married at their family’s cottage in Muskoka in 2021, but not even the torrential downfall of rain could rain out their celebration. They tied the knot with a very initiate group of family and friends in their cottage’s living room. Fast forward to 2022 and they opted to celebrate BIG with […]
Krystina & Ryan had a traditional ceremony at a local church in Barrie, and partied with all their family and friends at the gorgeous Ivy Ridge Estate in Ivy, Ontario. A middle of June wedding with the kind of weather every bride dreams about: a mid-twenty degree temperature, a cool breeze, and no bugs during […]
This gorgeous autumn wedding at the Barrie Country Club was one of our favourite days of 2022. Jenn & Nick’s choice of venue was the perfect location for their mid-September wedding. They chose such a beautiful colour palette that really popped against the Barrie Country Club’s lush gardens and rolling hills, which was giving off […]
Jenelle and I were briefly introduced at another clients wedding back in 2020. I took a group photo of the bride and her friends (including Jenelle & Braden). What I didn’t know was during that wedding, Jenelle leaned over to at the time, boyfriend, Braden, and she told him that she wanted to hire me […]
Bride, Hailey and Groom, Shoma, didn’t have the day they anticipated (#covid19), but their day was nothing short of magical and heartfelt. They had done long-distance between Japan and Canada dating (and engagement) for a few years, and if that wasn’t already challening enough, the world decided to have a world-wide pandemic limiting any and […]
One of my dearest friends married her love this autumn and it was the most beautiful day. Lauren and Klem’s fall wedding had been planned originally for early September, later postponed until the summer of 2021, but eventually they decided to move forward with a later date in September 2020. It’s easy to write out […]
I had the privilege of working with Jen from Vanilla Sprinkle & Co. during a recent editorial at Braestone Farm with Solau Wedding & Events. Her adorable trailer added in a unique feature to the editorial and her sweets were not only gorgeous, but tasted absolutely delicious. Fast forward a few months, and Jen had booked her own […]
I met Natalie, owner of Roam Coffee while photographing an editoral for Lisa K Events in Ajax at Deer Creek Gold Club. She was one of the vendors for the editorial, and being relatively newer to the wedding industry, we wanted to highlight her portable wedding coffee cart. Within 20 minutes, we had captured a […]

When Mosheen inquired about a beach-side engagement proposal in Tiny, I was immediately in. He laid out his plan to propose at specific beach spot where him and his (now fiancé), Resham, had spent time away during the summer with friends. It was a special location and he managed, along with some help, to pull […]

Brooke & Chase, along with their sweet girl Nova, are regular clients of mine. It’s always such a pleasure to work with them, but this mini session imparticular is a special one. The lighting, the weather, and of course Brooke’s great choice of outfits made this evening absolutely perfect. We had joked about baby number […]
We've complied (and continue to update) a list of venues we love in the Simcoe County area. From intimate historical venues to large outdoor garden weddings, we've got you covered!
"Magna was professional, fun and easy-to work with. She brought her own ideas and also was open to working with what we had in mind. We laughed a lot and she made the experience comfortable and relaxed. Beforehand her communication was excellent as she got back to me with any questions I had and when I didn't know a specific location to go, she suggested the shoot location and it worked out perfectly. I was thrilled with how the photos turned out and I would use Magna Arnott Photography again and recommend her to others!"
"Magna is absolutely fantastic to work with!! We connected from the very beginning of our first shoot. She had such a clear understanding of the type of shots I was after, how to style them, and the perfect products to use. The photos turned out amazing, beyond my expectations! I’ve had the pleasure of working with her twice already, and will most definitely be booking with her in the future! Thank you Magna!!"
"Magna’s photography is simply stunning. I’ve always believed that pictures are so special as they are lasting memories. I’ve had the pleasure of having her photograph our engagement, wedding and our gender reveal - all the photos have left me with a smile from ear to ear! I highly recommend her as a photographer for your next event. Also as an added bonus she is an amazing person who makes you feel super comfortable!"
"Doing Photos With Her Felt So Natural. She Makes You Feel Comfortable In A Way That Makes You Feel Like You’ve Been Good Friends For Awhile! Would Definitely Recommend! The Whole Experience And Outcome With Magna Is So Great!"
"Magna has the kindest heart! We have had several photoshoots together, and we always leave feeling a little extra joy than we came with. She makes us feel comfortable and confident, and sometimes a little silly for those extra special candid shots. Magna suggests beautiful locations, captures magnificent lighting, and provides quick results. She also makes sure to ask, if there’s anything we had in mind before the session ends. From our couple session, to our maternity shoot, and our recent Christmas mini as a family, we have always been more than satisfied with the results."
