August 1, 2009 ***NOW AVAILABLE

****





I just found out my August 1st wedding has cancelled, so I wanted to make sure to leave a note on my blog. The event was to be held at the Cobourg Best Western, so that means if there are any last minute wedding planners out there, you have a great chance to scoop up a hall *and* a photographer at the last minute!

Congratulations!

I shot this beautiful wedding on one of the most gorgeous days I have seen in a long time. I have shot the bride and her family in the past, and have always been warmed by how much love is in their family. When Dad saw his daughter in her dress for the first time, I witnessed one of the most beautiful reactions I have ever seen. There aren't too many times that I get teary-eyed at weddings, but I was full on ready to cry. :) I am always so happy to be part of a celebration where the families are so connected and have such a strong bond.

This wedding party was hilarious, totally full of fun and ready to be photographed! We had a great time with all of them! Big wedding parties are my favorite to shoot, as there is lots of ways to introduce drama and excitement in the photos with posing and lighting.

This wedding shoot reminded me of how much I totally love my job, and the ability to work with the most amazing brides and grooms around! Thank you both for letting me share in your celebration!!! :)

Baby Olivia

This little one was just a few days old when her parents brought her in for her first family photo. This session was a lovely gift from Mom's sister who called me ages ago to set it up for them. These moments don't last long, and they change so fast...it won't be long before Mom and Dad hardly remember what the brand-new baby stage looked like. Photos like these will be a precious reminder of that fleeting time!

Congratulations on your beautiful little girl! :)

Kids Being Kids...

I really appreciate it so much when Mom's and Dad's are able to let their little ones be themselves, without any pressure to smile for the camera. I had fun working with this family, and the kids were awesome too. Big sister was a total ham, and the camera loved her! Her little brother was slower to warm up, but he had so much personality when he was camera ready!

We got a ton of great shots, and lots of photos of the kids being kids, and that's what I love to see! Thanks guys!








Introducing Selena!


I am so excited to introduce my new assistant Selena! We just shot our second wedding together yesterday, and I am so thrilled with our combined efforts. Selena has a fantastic eye for composition and style, and I am really impressed with her work. Plus she makes an excellent light girl! :)

I am so stoked about this wedding season...we are going to create some amazing photos together!

Welcome aboard, Selena! :)

Baby Layne!

This little guy has already become one of my frequent fliers! He's been in (in-utero) with Mommy and Daddy for a maternity session, a brand new baby session when he was just a few days old, and recently for his big 6 month session! I really enjoy working with him and his mommy, who is very laid back and easy going. We had a ball shooting these, and I can't wait till the next time!

Lyndsey & Andres

I did family photos a while ago for Lyndsey and her family, so it was so nice to see them all again for the happy occasion of her and Andres wedding.

The link to their fusion engagement session video is here.

We had an absolutely beautiful day in Warkworth, and the weather co-operated beautifully. Thank you to both of you for allowing me to share in your day! I hope you had a beautiful honeymoon, and I look forward to seeing you both soon!
