Forster Chan
Toronto (and sometimes Tokyo)‑based Wedding,
Lifestyle, and Commercial Photographer
Wedding Editorials is the intersection of editorial fashion and candid photojournalism. We study fashion magazines to understand body shapes, movement, light, and framing - not to copy them, but because that's how we learn to make people look effortless. We translate that into knowing how to guide you without it ever feeling like a photoshoot. Directed when it helps. Invisible when it doesn't. The goal is for you to look back and remember being there, not being photographed.
Toronto in the summer, Tokyo in the winter. I spend a few months in Japan every year and started offering couples sessions there. These are shot with the same approach as how I run Wedding Editorials; effortless and fun without it ever feeling like a photoshoot but just with Tokyo as the backdrop!
If you're planning a proposal, engagement session, or a simple couple's shoot, contact me today and we can chat over email or video call to plan out your vision.
I bring the same editorial approach to commercial work — product, events, brand content. I want to know what you're going for before I pick up the camera, and the final gallery should feel unmistakably yours.
The Studio Co. is a creative production space in Toronto. I run operations as General Manager — client relations, creative direction, and the day-to-day alongside the photographers, directors, and brands who book the space.
Hi, I'm Forster — a Toronto-based wedding and commercial photographer, videographer, and content creator with 17+ years behind the lens. Before going full-time, I spent seven years in hospitality operations, which taught me as much about delivering for clients as any camera course ever could. I run Wedding Editorials, one of Toronto's top choices for editorial wedding photography, and on the commercial side I've created content for brands like Turo, CAMH, Brüst, and Friday Burger Company. When I'm not shooting, you'll find me with my wife gardening, camping, cooking and/or stuffing our faces.
