Jenna + Scott
{Timmins Ontario Wedding Photography}

It's not every day we travel to Timmins, Ontario for wedding! But when this inquiry came in I was all over it! We made a trip of it and it was such a fantastic wedding! I love shooting in an unfamiliar town town, so much fresh scenery, especially up north! Jenna and Scott had the most perfect weather and we found the perfect location for their photos! Hersey Lake had a forest and a beautiful view of the lake! Congrats Jenna and Scott, we had such a great time in Timmins!

Paula + Brian
London Ontario Wedding Photography

Paula & Brian had a beautiful ceremony at the lovely St.Peters down town London. We then had a great photo session down town with their fun wedding party around the Peace Gardens and the Old Courthouse. We also made a quick trip for Paula to visit her sister at the cemetary, this was very important to Paula as her sister Vera was dearly missed on her big day. The couple had their wedding reception at the Portuguese Club, which was completely transformed, it looked incredible! Congrat Paula & Brian!

Groom: Got to see my beautiful wife walking down the aisle, and when the priest announced us husband and wife. Got to dance with my mom who went through a bad accident, she broke both legs, and I got the chance to dance with her at my wedding and she was worked so hard for that moment!

Favourite detail: Hall, loved my head table area and the ceiling work

Advice for future brides & grooms: Just enjoy the day. It goes by so fast and not everything will go to plan and just go with it. No one will know that but you!

Would you change anything if you could do it all over again? NOTHING, I got to marry my best friend after 10 years, and it was perfect!

Best surprise of the day: Brian was dancing with his mom and his brother got emotional, I told him to go up and hug his mom after Brian finish dancing with his mom. It was a great moment, both sons hugging their mom who had 2 rough years and made it happen that she will dance with her son at his wedding, everyone was crying and clapping for them. It was an amazing surprise for his mom

Natalie + Michael
{Toronto Ontario Wedding Photography}

Natalie and Michael planned their beautiful wedding while living in England, so we didn't have the chance to meet until the big day. I was greeted by Natalie's warm smile the second we walked in to her parents' home which set the tone for the day. Our couples often run in to little hiccups on their wedding day (like non-stop rain!) thankfully Natalie and Michael were able to roll with the rain and the result was one of my favourite photos taken at the back of Graydon Hall after sunset.

Lanlan and Jason had an intimate wedding with their closest family & friends at the beautiful Cambridge Mill.
