Judie & Andre
I love it when a couple has a special spot in mind for their pre-wedding shoot. This beautiful downtown garden is where Andre proposed! They have such a fantastic energy, I can't wait for the wedding!
Taylor & Robin
The unofficial start of our season was April 26, which saw the wonderful wedding of two beautiful women - Taylor and Robin. I met Taylor a few years ago after a showing of my documentary work. I was ecstatic to hear from her when she came to need a wedding photographer. You can feel the love Taylor and Robin have for each other, it fills the room when they're together, and their ceremony and reception had me in tears. I feel so privileged to be a wedding photographer - I get to be a part of one of the most important days in a couple's life, and when that couple is so obviously head over heels for each other and surrounded by family and friends that love them immensely, I feel that much luckier to do what I do.
During her speech at the reception, Taylor's mom pointed out that blazing paths runs in the family - Taylor's grandmother was one of the first female pilots in the US Air Force during World War II.

April Showers Bring...
May flowers! I had the pleasure of celebrating my birthday on the first of May with some very close friends. First Aleks and I went for our favourite meal of the day... breakfast!
And later that evening a very special someone brought me a gorgeous bouquet of flowers from wild thyme, one of my favourite shops in Leslieville. I highly recommend them for all your wonderful floral needs.
More blog posts to come, including our first wedding of the season shot with my brand new Nikon D3! It's a fantastic camera and opens up a whole new world of lowlight shooting that I think our couples this year will really enjoy.
