Canoe Restaurant Wedding // Eileen & Justin

Canoe Restaurant Wedding Toronto Wedding Photographer

When I met Eileen and Justin, Eileen told me that when she looks at my photos, she can really feel the emotions come through in each photo, just as if she was a part of that moment. I knew then that they would be the right couple for me.

September came and it was a beautiful day for Eileen and Justin’s wedding. We took their wedding portraits at the beautifully historic Spadina House, and the ceremony and reception was at the well-known Canoe restaurant on the 54th floor of the TD tower, with panoramic views of the city and the lake to boot. Canoe was also the place where Eileen and Justin had their first date – so it had come full circle for them.

To me, meaning and feeling is everything, and one of the things I love most about weddings is all those moments that touch my heart. They usually happen sometime during the ceremony or during the speeches at dinner. For this one, it was during the traditional tea ceremony, when Justin said to Eileen’s parents: “I will take care of Eileen from now on”. No ornate promises, no “til death do us part”, just a simple, and sincere sentence.

Here’s the story of Eileen & Justin’s wedding day.

Thank you Jessie of Flair Weddings for putting together such a stylish event!

Legend has it that each of us has an invisible “red string” attached to us, and that at the other end of the string is the person you are destined to marry.

Door games – aka. torment the boys :P

High Park Engagement Photos // Amy & Henry

They say that “birds of a feather flock together”. Well, I think proverbs really do express a truth that is based on common sense or real experience. The first thing that I learned about Amy and Henry was that they love to travel.

Well, you had me at “travel”. When we met, we just talked about their travels. I can honestly say that is one topic that I’ll never get tired of talking about. It was also very apparent to me how in love they are with each other. This made it very easy to capture their connection during this Document Love/engagement session.

Amy & Henry, I can’t wait to be a part of your wedding day in June!

London Baby Photographer // Baby Matthew

If this lovely family looks familiar, it’s because I photographed Kelly and Mike’s wonderful country backyard wedding 1.5 years ago. Last August they welcomed their baby boy Matthew, and I was lucky enough to be invited back to document a new chapter in life together. I love these connections I’m able to make through the work I work.

A belated welcome to baby Matthew! Hope I will see more of all of you guys in the future. :)

Bellamere Winery Wedding // Jess & Kyle

Jessica & Kyle had a beautiful Bellamere Winery wedding on a crisp fall day. Surrounded by their closest friends and family, it was a day full of tears, laughter, joy and a lot of love.

As a photographer, I’m a huge fan of First Looks. Sometimes couples worry about how they would feel at the ceremony if they saw each other before hand. But I feel that no matter what, nothing can take away from the significance of walking down the aisle/seeing your bride walk down the aisle. In this case, Kyle’s reaction seeing Jess come down the aisle is testament to that feeling. As I look back at the photos I took, I can feel their love and their connection come through the images. As well as their love and connection for their friends and family. Life is a journey, and that journey is so much better when you can share it with someone.

Here’s the story of Jess & Kyle’s wedding day.

Big thanks to Darren of Hatt Photography for helping me set up this last shot and for second shooting!

Iceland Travel Photography // Into the Fjords

Destination wedding photographer Toronto

Three. That’s the number of times I’ve been to Iceland now. But no matter how many times I’ve been there, it just doesn’t seem to be enough. The more I go, the more I want to go back. I also feel like I can never quite capture in photographs the Iceland that I see in my mind’s eye.

For this trip, I photographed a very lovely fellow Canadian couple in and around south Iceland for their anniversary session. Then Mike and I picked up a rental car and drove up to the Snaefellsness peninsula and then on to the Westfjords, which is this stunningly beautiful and remote landscape. And very isolated. If you are looking for edge-of-the-world beautiful landscape, this is definitely one of those places.

I think I’ve gushed enough about this beautiful place here, and here. Below are some favourites from this past trip.

Starting from Reykjavik, 3 hours later we were winding to the “top” part of the Snaefellsness peninsula.

The town of Stykkisholmur.

From Stykkisholmur, it was nearly 4 hours on a stretch of route 54 that was badly potholed to get to Holmavik on Strandir coast of the Westfjords.

Looking out onto the Holmavik Harbour from our guesthouse. This was one of the creepiest place I’ve ever stayed in.

Not because of the Museum of Witchcraft across the street, or the fact that we hardly saw anyone around town.

It was a very old house and as soon as I saw it, I had a funny feeling about it.

It didn’t help that we were the only ones staying there haha.

The next day we took a road trip along the Strandir coast. It was 104 km of coastal gravel road pitted with potholes the size of giant watermelons.

The journey took about 3 hors each way since we didn’t have a 4×4 so we drove slowly. At the end of that was a geothermal pool at the edge

of the universe.

“Breathtaking” seems like an overused word, but I can’t think of anything else to describe the drive.

A little seal colony in one of the fjords.

Seeing the Northern lights dance was definitely one of the most amazing experiences I’ve had.

We stayed at a farm in Heydalur for our last 2 nights and the resident dog followed us the whole way on a 4-hour hike…we played fetch with him!

His name is Loki :) (the Nordic god of mischief)

There was also an Arctic Fox that lived on the farm!

Bluffer’s Park Wedding // Lauren & Erik

Sometimes, when you get married, there doesn’t have to be a single soul around except for you, your beloved, someone to marry you by and two witnesses (by legal requirements). That’s exactly what Lauren & Erik did on an early summer morning. There is something about getting married at the beginning of a day – both symbolize a new chapter. Their intimate elopement was at the peaceful and lovely Bluffer’s Park. This is probably one of my favourite spots in the city. You don’t even feel like you are in Toronto anymore.

Here is Lauren & Erik’s elopement story!
