Stephanie & Jonathon – Toronto Engagement Shoot

Time to kick it up!

Jon & Steph are a rockin’, vibrant and fun couple! We had a great time roaming the streets of Toronto, hunting down fun locations that would reflect their energy. I think that this may be one of my most colorful sets yet!

Check soon for photos from the wedding and day after shoot!

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!

Jill & Dan – A Vibrant Engagement Shoot!

Energetic, fun, vibrant, stylish… these are all words that I use to describe Jill and Dan. They are the kind of couple that you easily fall in love with and can’t stop photographing. It was definitely the case with this “Extended Play” engagement photo session!

You may also notice that I love shooting well into the evening. By doing so, I am able to capture a range of playful and sexy imagery, spanning different lighting conditions and scenes. It really gives my couples a lot of variety in their images and goes well beyond the realms of a typical engagement session.

I am not able to post everything from the session right now (It’s kinda crazy here at the studio this week) so I will leave you with these awesome teasers. Be sure to come back for the main course later on! Please comment!

This stylish and cute engagement shoot has now been featured on The Wedding Co. daily news. Click here for more photos!

Melanie & David – Toronto Engagement Photography

I really love engagement shoots for the way that they allow me to connect with couples, make them feel comfortable and help them break down any walls that they may have when it comes to being in front of a camera. I had a fantastic time hanging out with Melanie & David for an evening and came out of the shoot with some fantastic and playful imagery that they will be able to cherish for a lifetime.

One thing that you will notice from these photos, is that my sessions are fairly long and can bridge a number of different environments and times of day. It allows me to provide my couples with a diverse range or imagery that is exciting, intimate and unique.

Thank you so much for spending an evening with me, Melanie & David. It was a pleasure working with the both of you!
I have to say that I am in LOVE with the last shot of you in your Toronto FC jerseys!

Karen & Peter – Engagement / Lifestyle Photography

Some days I just can’t wait to get to work. Yes. You read that correctly!
I have been waiting all weekend to post these exciting images from my last little Lifestyle / Engagement shoot, featuring this all-too-cute couple.

We managed to beat the weather last Friday as the rain and clouds lifted and treated us to fantastic shooting conditions all through the evening. Beautiful summer like light, a vibrant twilight sky and temperatures that were on the mild side. It was absolutely perfect for a quick trip to the park, followed by a stop at a few more industrial locations to add some diversity to the imagery.

Please comment away!
