Kate & Mac - Inn on the Twenty Wedding

in

When I asked Mac what he admired most about Kate he gave me the longest most beautiful answer, within his answer he wrote “Her thoughtfulness….. I think this thoughtfulness is deeply tied to her profound sense of sentimentality. She loves moments (big and small) and works tirelessly to make them special for herself and the people she loves. No matter what she has going on, she makes time to care for all the little details needed to transform a passing event into a meaningful, life lasting memory.”

This is exactly what Kate and Mac accomplished, with each passing moment, they stopped to take it all in and let their emotions run wild. When I delivered their sneak peek and told them how lovely their day was Kate said “ The goal was to have the day feel like a big warm hug”. It really did feel like a big warm hug, one that I wont forget.

Jenn & Ryan | Parkwood Estate & 12welve Bistro Wedding

in

Jenn & Ryan had a small and intimate celebration with just their closest friends and family. They had their ceremony at Parkwood Estate, it was my first time there and it sure didn’t disappoint, then they danced the night away at 12welve Bistro.

Every wedding I photograph has a unique element or something just a little extra special that I always remember fondly. On this day, Jenn took a short break between the ceremony and the reception to get a hair cut! She had been growing it for the big day but was excited to chop off all that extra and feel a weight lifted literally off her shoulders. Hair cuts can symbolize a new beginning and I really felt like this helped turn the page of that new and exciting chapter for her. Looking back though I think my favourite moment of the night was when Jenn had a mother-daughter-grandmother dance. They were so in the moment together, and for me, getting to document things like this is why I love what I do.





Kaitlin & Josh | Bowmanville Beach Photo Session with their Dog

in ,

Okay, how cute is Floki the dog!?!
He was such a good boy at their family session and even let me hold his leash to get photos of his parents.
I love Bowmanville Beach for photo sessions, it’s got sand, rocks, really beautiful trees, greenery and in the spring time some blooms too!

I always get asked if I’m okay with dogs, and if they can come to a photo session, and the answer is YES every time. I just ask that you bring treats, their nicest leash and collar and maybe a favourite squeaky toy too.

Kelly & Kirk | Carvers Cottage & Brock St. Brewery Wedding

in

Kelly & Kirk had the most romantic wedding ceremony in May. But the highlight of the day was no doubt the reception. When they had their first dance to “F*ck her Gently” by Tenacious D you knew it was about to be one heck of party.

Every aspect of the day, especially the music choices were unique to them, and I think it’s so important to make your wedding day all ABOUT YOU!

Ceremony: Carvers Cottage
Reception: Brock St. Brewery

Tanya & Brett | Ontario Wedding

in

Tanya and Brett’s wedding was filled with Croatian traditions and so many friends and loved ones. They got married in Hamilton and we did some portraits at the beautiful Battlefield Park with its 100 foot high monument symbolizing Peace. These two are spontaneous, relaxed, and just so much fun to be around! It was a pleasure to watch their day unfold and document so many real moments of connection.

Rebeka & Brandon | Hollowbrook Highlands | Kawartha Lakes Photographer

in ,

Rebeka and Brandon stumbled upon this amazing farm by chance and LOVED it! So, we reached out to see if we could photograph their engagement photos at the farm, and we could! They have highland cows, goats, chickens, and all kinds of beautiful back drops to enjoy the sunset. The cows really weren’t interested in saying “hi” to us and Rebeka may have been attacked by a seemingly friendly goat, but we had the best time and I can’t wait to go back!
