Behind the camera, chasing the moments you didn’t see coming.
I’m Dwight, the photographer behind Permashine Photography. I’m a college graduate in photography with over 10 years of experience shooting weddings, models, families, events, and lifestyle sessions across the GTA, Hamilton, Niagara, and surrounding areas.
My favourite photos are the ones that happen naturally — the laugh before the pose, the quiet look across the room, the nervous excitement, the real emotion. Those are the images that feel alive years later.
Direction when needed. Real moments when they happen.
I believe the best photography is a balance. Sometimes you need calm direction so everyone looks confident, organized, and comfortable. Other times, the best thing a photographer can do is step back, watch carefully, and capture people in their natural element.
Weddings
Calm coverage, organized portraits, emotional storytelling, and real candid moments throughout one of the most important days of your life.
Families
Natural family photography that captures connection, personality, and the little moments that often become the most meaningful.
Portraits & Models
Confident direction, strong composition, and clean imagery for personal branding, lifestyle sessions, modelling portfolios, and creative shoots.
“The photo you remember most is usually the one you didn’t know was being taken.”
Let’s create photos that feel real.
Whether you’re planning a wedding, engagement session, family shoot, or portrait session, I’d love to hear what you’re working on.

Wedding photography recognized beyond the gallery.
One of my real wedding shoots was selected and featured in Wedding Essentials Magazine, showcasing the story, ceremony, portraits, and meaningful moments from Annie and Tim’s wedding.
Being published is more than a badge. It reflects the ability to photograph a full wedding story with consistency — from the quiet moments and formal portraits to the ceremony, details, and emotions that bring the entire day together.
