Monica & Ray – A Beautiful November Wedding

It’s amazing, the beauty that can be found within the neutral tones that a brisk November day brings.
Monica and Ray’s wedding took place at St.Peter’s Cathederal and at the Embassy Grand in Brampton, Ontartio.

Dave & Charlotte – Lifestyle Engagement Photography

I have known Dave & Charlotte for years and have always admired their own photographic work, so when they asked if I would like to photograph an engagement set of them, it was an opportunity that I just couldn’t turn down. We decided to take full advantage of the gray fall skies by visiting a few edgy locations which really up the moody tone of the shoot.  I really love the gritty nature of these final edits!

Thanks again D&C!

Shail & Gobi – The Wedding – Station Creek

Shail and Gobi’s Indian wedding was vibrant, beautiful and full of tradition, and really just a perfect example of why I love photographing weddings so much. It was easy to top off all of my memory cards (and I have plenty!) at a special wedding like this. From the beautiful floral arrangements, to the cake and colorful traditional outfits, there was just so much to capture.

Thank you for having me play a part in your very special day – enjoy the teasers!

Photography Collaborations – Toronto’s Berkeley Church & Sudbury Ontario

Through the course of the wedding season I am usually quite busy managing my own weddings, but I occasionally have the opportunity to work with other photographers to create some truly fantastic collaborative work. I am not going to do full posts on these weddings, but thought I would toss up a few selects for you to enjoy!

The crisp fall air and changing leaves in Sudbury, Ontario provided the setting for a fantastic day and evening of celebration for Kate & Dave’s wedding. I was shooting along side the fantabulous Catherine Farquharson who had been climbing Mt.Kilimanjaro only a day prior and required me to be available as a stand-in just in case. It of course never came to that, as Catherine is a seasoned jet setter, so headed out to enjoy a fantastic fall shoot with a fun couple!

I Just LOVE red roses. The simplicity of Kate’s bouquet really set things off and I just couldn’t keep my lens off it!

Faye & Micheal’s wedding was shot with Dave, who is one half of Dave & Charlotte. The Berkeley Event Center was the setting and is a Toronto location that I truly love shooting at. It was my 3rd wedding captured there and the weather was absolutely perfect as was the ambiance of the venue.

One thing that I love about the Berkley Church is the combination of vibrancy and texture that all of the different hallways, rooms, nooks and cranny’s provide. I feel like I can shoot there 100 times and have a different feel and flavor each time.
