"Robert Miedema is so incredibly detailed, professional, personable, and talented. When you spend the majority of your wedding day being photographed you want to be comfortable. Robert was AMAZING; I have nothing but wonderful things to say about him. He did such an incredible job capturing so many special moments at our wedding. We, as well as our wedding party were so lucky to be able to spend the day with

Robert, he really played into our personalities and the pictures reflect that.  As every bride knows, planning a wedding can become very stressful as there are so many details you do not want to over-look; this was a very easy process. Robert was so accommodating, everything was pure perfection, from the engagement photos that were beautiful, to our Wedding day photo’s that I can hardly wait to see.

Thank you Robert for making our wedding day that much more PERFECT! You are truly talented and I can not wait to share my pictures with friends and family!"

"It has been my pleasure to work alongside Robert Miedema Photography at numerous wedding ceremonies. I love it when I arrive and have the confidence that not only does he know what he's doing - but he doesn't get in the way. You hardly know he's there - but he captures all the right moments. He is professional, quick and keeps things moving along nicely. Robert is personable and easy to work with. He makes sure to get both candid and posed photos - and captures every moment of your special day. It is always a joy to work with Robert at wedding ceremonies."

Amber-Lee and James
"James and I just wanted to say thank you from the bottom of our hearts for making our wedding a magical and relaxing day. We knew we picked the perfect photographer the minute we met you, and you definitely proved us right!

We hope you both enjoyed it as much as we did! We honestly can't thank you enough,"

"They turned out beautiful! If we are in need of a photographer in the future, I will definitely give you a call." (Angela-Jasons Wedding)

Theresa and Josh
"You did such an amazing job! I absolutely love them. I feel very grateful to have found someone as talented as yourself. We really enjoyed working with you that day. You made it easy and fun. Thank you again."

Dar and Scott
"They are amazing- thank-you so much! You caught all the important moments and many things I had forgotten or didn’t see myself. It’s amazing to see how adaptable you are to what each couple wants- you really ‘got’ what we were looking for even though it was very different from other wedding photos I’ve seen you do. You really blended in and took great photos of us just being ‘us’ without us even realizing you were there. I had told you we both liked black and white photos and you did a few but I when I saw them I realized the colours were so beautiful that the black and white were nothing in comparison. Thank-you for being one less thing for us to stress about on such a busy day. We were so unorganized and chaotic but you didn’t let that get in the way. Thanks again."

Susie and Jonathan
Photographer Robert Miedema - Taking Your Special Day "Beyond The Edge" "Planning a wedding is at times like trying to navigate your way through a country to which you don't speak the language - colours and flowers, locations and dates, dresses and themes, just to name a few. For me, having a beautiful, visual and tangible record of my wedding day was the most important decision to make amid the sea of details waiting to be solidified. Jonathan and myself dream about taking down our wedding album in 40 years to relive and retell our special day with our grandchildren. Memories are priceless, but with time they can fade and even fill with holes as a lifetime of other memories fill our minds and hearts. Because of this, it was paramount for us to find a photographer who would not just mechanically point and shoot at the standard group portraits, guests and traditional moments throughout our wedding day. A day that symbolizes Jonathan and I declaring to the world that we had found each other, the love of our lives, our soul mates.

Our search for the perfect photographer for us, that proverbial needle in the haystack of literally countless options - lead us to Robert Miedema. What first peaked our interest in Robert was when we came upon his website (www.mrphotographer.ca) where we learned about his dedication and obvious passion for immortalizing in digital media one of the most important days in a couple's life together; their wedding. There on his website were beautiful, creative and unique images - and seemed to capture not just the people, but their emotions, and personality as well.

Robert photographs in such a way as to tell a story with a combination of posed and candid shots. His dedication to his clients was obvious, capturing unique and special moments beginning with getting ready at the start of the day, right through to the tossing of the bouquet. Another reason we chose Robert to photograph our wedding is that he offers engagement photo sessions, beautifully constructed original wedding albums and provides a DVD of proofs that we can print at our convenience. Several different sizes of prints are also available.

Robert offers a wide range of wedding photography packages, allowing us to choose a package that best suited our wants, needs and budget. Another important reason we choose Robert was his experience, professionalism and preference to meet with us long before the Big Day. He met with us to get to know us better, answer our questions, gather any input we had and offer suggestions/tips on how best to photograph our wedding day. And, despite the fact that he must have a hectic schedule, Robert makes the time for his clients whether for a meeting or just asking/answering questions in an email. While we liked that we would be consulted with certain aspects of the photography on our wedding day, it is very comforting to know that

Robert will have all the details and artistic options under control. After meeting Robert we felt very much at ease, confident in his skills, his dedication, his artistry and ability to make our book of memories one of a kind."

Kyla and Mike

Tammy and Brian
"Brian and I wanted to say thank you for being a part of our wedding. The pictures look amazing! Your ability to capture all of our personalities was unbelievable. The mixture between candid and posed shots really portrayed our special day and how much fun was had by everyone. It was the day I’ve always dreamed of and you managed to capture the emotions to a tee. We couldn’t have asked for a better photographer to be photographing our day. Your excitement and genuine love for your job made our day even more special. Thanks again Robert!"

Brittany and Geoff
"Thank you for being our photographer on our special day. Your excitement and love of photography has made it easier for us to adjust to being the ones in the spotlight. Thank You Again."
