Halifax Photographers Sophia, Alex & Kate MacAulay

Kate and Alex MacAulay are Halifax, Nova Scotia based photographers.


Photography is our family business and what we love to do. Married for 25 years and working together as photographers for longer than that! Connecting with people and telling their stories drives us every day. We’ve done our jobs when our clients feel proud to share their images and feel like we’ve captured something special in them. That inner beauty, that spark that makes them special. Finding the best family photographer or the best wedding photographer in Halifax is no easy task - there are so many amazing photographers in Halifax! We appreciate that you've taken the time to visit us today!

Wedding Photographer

We have photographed over 500 weddings and while experience counts, we think what's more important is finding someone to work with that loves what they do. This is when magic can happen. We know we are doing what we were meant to do when we connect with a couple and time stands still. When we all get caught up in the moment and the resulting images capture your chemistry as a couple and your connection with your friends and family.

Kate and I share a passion for life, photography and design; for two decades we’ve worked couples on their wedding day together to create unique visual diaries and would love to do the same for you!

Family Photographer

We have always approached family photography with a great deal of honour and respect. Playfulness, too, to show family life in the happiest moments. Snapshots are great at chronicling days, people we’ve met, and places we've visited. But professional photography can capture real moments. It can tell a story, connect the characters and bring families to life years and years into the future.

Headshot Photographer

We have the pleasure of photographing hundreds of amazing people every year. We've worked with CEOs, musicians, comedians, journalists, realtors, business owners, actors, designers, lawyers and engineers! As I put together our gallery for the headshot section of our website, it struck me: what an amazing group of people - intelligent, funny and crazy-talented at what they do!

In 2018, we built a studio on our property to best serve our headshot clients. We can have elaborate lighting set up and a variety of backgrounds available so that clients can drop in and we can begin shooting with ease.

Grad Photographer

It's a treat to connect with grads and I am always so impressed by the aspirations of these future leaders. We have the pleasure of working with lots of grads from Charles P. Allen High School as it's just down the road from our studio but we also love working with grads from Dalhousie University, Saint Mary's University and Mount Saint Vincent University. If you're not 100% happy with your original grad photos we would love the opportunity to work with you!

Serving Greater Halifax

Our studio and office can be found nestled in picturesque Hammonds Plains, just a stone's throw away from Bedford, Nova Scotia. As passionate photographers, we are committed to serving the entirety of the Halifax Regional Municipality (HRM), spanning from the bustling heart of downtown Halifax to the vibrant communities of Dartmouth, Bedford, and Sackville, as well as the charming Eastern Shore.

Our dedication to capturing the beauty of Nova Scotia extends beyond HRM, we will enthusiastically travel throughout the province. We delight in photographing on the scenic South Shore, the breathtaking Annapolis Valley—encompassing the charming towns of Wolfville, Annapolis Royal, and Digby—and every picturesque location in between.

Hailing from the little village of Baddeck in Cape Breton, I hold a special fondness for capturing the memories of families and weddings across the island. From the pristine beaches of Ingonish to the bustling city of Sydney and the serene beauty of Dundee, Kate and I are eager to document your cherished moments amid the diverse and striking backdrops that our beloved province has to offer.
