Wild Candid Collective is a documentary wedding photography studio founded in 2017 by Megan Maundrell. Built on intention and storytelling, the collective is dedicated to capturing weddings as they truly unfold—unscripted, emotional, and deeply personal.
With a team based across Canada and the U.S. and over 130 five-star reviews, Wild Candid Collective is known for a seamless experience and thoughtfully delivered galleries. We’re here not just to photograph your wedding, but to honour it—exactly as it felt.
Our candid-first approach prioritizes real connection over posed perfection. From quiet, in-between moments to uninhibited celebration, we document the full rhythm of your day, creating imagery that feels natural, alive, and unmistakably yours.

All galleries are edited in-house by Megan and Alexandra, with final checks completed by Megan to ensure consistency, quality, and a five-week delivery(12 weeks on the Basic Package).
You’ll connect directly with your photographer closer to your wedding date to finalize timelines and details, keeping communication simple and intentional.
During your complimentary consultation, Megan personally matches you with the right photographer based on personality, location, and budget—so it feels like a natural fit.
Megan is your main point of contact from inquiry through planning, ensuring every detail is handled with clarity and care.
Our photographers are supported behind the scenes so they can focus entirely on creating art. This allows for elevated imagery, consistent quality, and a seamless experience for you.
With photographers based worldwide, Wild Candid Collective makes destination and local wedding photography equally accessible—wherever your story takes place.
"I knew immediately I wanted to book Megan when I saw her photos, but after our first meeting I was 1000% ready! She made me feel so comfortable...
Not only is Megan good at what she does, she also really helped me stay calm and rid of my nerves on the wedding day. Megan was really there with me every step if the way - worth every penny!"
Seeing Megan’s work was love at first sight!

We love how natural all the photos are, even the posed ones! The editing is stunning and very realistic! You would not regret it if you booked with Megan, it would be the best decision you made.
When we first stumbled on Megan’s work, we thought “OMG THIS IS THE ONE!”

Megan has the same kind of energy that we have. She was so easy to work with. She made all of our asks come true. Her suggestions and helpful tips on what we should be working on leading up to the big day were super helpful. We felt really comfortable getting our photos with her. It was just perfect!
Megan's enthusiasm and prompt response is really what sold us
