No, do not send originals...they would not be returned. The letter states to send online via Case Specific Enquiry (IRCC web form).
 
One more question.
Will the photocopies of my wedding photos, lease agreement, and other Proof of Cohabitation have to be certified by a Notary?

No they don't need to be certified by a notary. The guide will specify if anything needs to be notarized.
