Jackie + Jon | A Toronto Board of Trade Wedding

We were so excited to photograph Jackie and Jon’s wedding.  They seemed to be as excited about their pictures as we were, and that is always a good thing!  We had an amazing day with them, and were soooo lucky when the rain that was pouring down all day stopped just in time for us...

Cindy + Adrian | A Distillery District Engagement Shoot, Toronto

Cindy and Adrian are getting married in Las Vegas next summer!  Oh how we wish we could join them (booo to resort restrictions!)  They were so cute together, and Cindy made us laugh with her nervous giggle any time we asked her to pose.  She is gorgeous, and shouldn’t feel self-conscious at all playing model! ...

Sarah + Emre | A Tamahaac Club Wedding, Ancaster ON

As with most weddings this summer, we started photographing Sarah + Emre’s wedding with the threat of rain in the forecast.  When the  day began, it was quite clear, and it looked like we might get lucky and avoid the rain. However, just as we were leaving Sarah’s home for the ceremony, the thunder boomed...

Jacqueline | Toronto Maternity Photography

There is nothing more exciting then baby news from a friend.  Having known Jackie and Kevin for many years, I couldn’t have been happier for them.  With just a few weeks to go before the arrival of their little Virgo, I knew an outdoor location in the evening light would be perfect for their shoot. ...

Val & Max | A Toronto Island Engagement Shoot

We always say that although we can execute beautiful photographs, it’s up to the couple to let their personalities and chemistry shine through the lens.  Val and Max were a dream to photograph.  They were so cute, playful and carefree with one another, that they made our job very easy.  We walked, we laughed, we...
