Sam & Ben – The Wedding – Cave Springs Winery – Niagara On The lake

I have not been blogging much lately as I have been spending much of my time editing and catering to my clients, so I do apologize!

This cute little brunch wedding took place at the picturesque Cave Springs Winery, which is located just outside of the town of Jordan Station, Ontario. Crystal of Distinct Occasions did a stand up job designing the event, which featured a bright blue and yellow pallet – delicious! Speaking of delicious, check out the awesome M&M’s garnishing the cake.

Sam & Ben – Thank you so much for having me out to capture your special day!

Andrea & Chris – The Wedding – Kortright Center – Toronto

The Kortright Center is well known to many who grew up in Toronto, as it was a popular destination for elementary school field trips when one was young. It definitely brought back a number of fond memories for me and it was nice to think that a beautiful wedding would now be added to them.

A winding trail through the forest, which led to a clearing in the woods, was the perfect setting for Andrea and Chris’ nature inspired ceremony. It was a very intimate celebration and was a nice change of pace from some of the larger weddings that I have been covering lately. It brought a lot of warmpth and energy to the event and made for a very relaxed day.

Thank you so much for having me at your wedding!

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!

Laura & Sam – Toronto Maternity / Lifestyle Photos

It’s always extremely flattering and quite the privilege when I am asked by other members of the photographic community, to capture the special moments in their lives.

I have known Sam & Laura for a few years now and they are one of the sweetest couples that I know! So when they brought me the news that they were going to have a baby, I just had to take them up on the opportunity to photograph some fun maternity photos that leaned on the side of lifestyle imagery.

I had a great time hanging out with the both of you for the afternoon and I can’t wait to meet the little one!
