Damon & Naomi's Gorgeous Burlington Wedding at Spencers on the Waterfront - Wedding Photography

One of the great joys in what we do is when we get to present a bride and groom with all of their beautiful wedding images for the first time.  This is a magical moment that makes all of our hard work worth every late night.

We recently had the privilege of showing Damon & Naomi their beautiful wedding images in her parents home.  We set-up a projector and the "big screen" for the premier of their wedding images.  There were tears of joy and bursts of laughter....as they re-lived their romantic wedding day.  Love you guys!

The McEachern Family

We recently took the beautiful McEachern family out for a session at Paletta Mansion in Burlington.  They are all a joy to be around and we had such a great time creating these great images.  We personally think that Mrs. McEachern should have a special medal of honour as she had all 5 kids in 5 years!

We didn't have to work too hard to get real smiles out of everyone...when the girls were getting their pictures done, the brothers took on that responsibility whole heartedly using their whit and a few one-liners to get a couple of laughs ☺

 Of course, being good sisters, they in turn returned the favour (ha!)

Damon & Naomi - Wedding on the Waterfront

When I think back on Damon & Naomi's wedding day I have to smile about all of the "uniqueness" that it held.  Each of these unique elements added to the specialness of their union and made it a joy for us to document through our photography.  Here are just a few  of the many things that made this day what is was:

A sunny Thursday in April...a little glimpse of Spring among the rainy days
                Dads filling special roles...officiating and best-man
Lovely, supportive children...filled with joy
               An intimate ceremony overlooking the waterfront
The gown...well, it was just stunning

April Showers bring...Wedding Flowers!

The morning of Julie and Anthony's Engagement Session came in with a Spring thunderstorm. The forecast was calling for only a few mm of rain but it sure looked daunting! Knowing that it wouldn't last long...we kept the day's schedule as planned. I am so glad that we did...by the time we met Julie & Anthony in the parking lot at Paletta Mansion, the rain had gone and sunshine was heading our way!

We had a great time with this beautiful couple. There was still a mist over the Lake Ontario as we created imaging that they will be able to treasure for years to come.

Love this one! : )

The Treasure of Family...

"Great are the works of the Lord,
studied by all who delight in them.
Full of splendor and majesty is his work,
and his righteousness endures forever"
- Ps. 111:2-3

One of the best "works of the Lord" that we get to delight in is the FAMILY!  What an amazing design God had..two individual people falling in love and being united in marriage to form a family. 

In our case, we went from being two individuals to (fast-forward almost 13 years) a very lively family of six! 

To celebrate and "delight in" some of the beautiful families that we have had the privilege of working with, we put together a little video for you to enjoy! 

A "Happily-Ever-After" Story

In our line of work, we get to smile...allot!  One wedding that always brings a smile to my heart is Ryan and Nicole. 

Nicole became a beautiful friend to us long before she had met Ryan.  She is one of those people that brings joy with her when she walks into a room.  When she told us about Ryan entering her life we were thrilled for her!  Not long after, a wedding date was arranged ♥

Due to a schedule conflict, we almost were not able to shoot their wedding.  With a little arranging (and re-arranging) we were able to be a part of their wonderful day and capture these beautiful moments as they started their lives together.

Family Fun!

So, we recently took a standard office space and transformed it into a studio for one of our Extended Family Session.  We brought in some big guns...yes folks, that is a 6 ft. light that you see below.  Crazy big piece of equipment but it does an amazing job...especially when you are working with a large group of people. 

The family had come in from all over the map - from BC to North York for  this session.  We are always happy to be a great "excuse" for family to get together!  I think it adds to the excitement and energy in the room when loved-ones are all gathered together. 

In the end, we had a great time with this great family!  We started with more "formal" poses and as the evening went on and everyone got into the groove of things ended-up with some great "just for fun" stuff!



The results:

We had fun putting together this short video of the session...Check it out!
