Document Love: Stephanie & Matt // Toronto Engagement Photography

Meet Stephanie and Matt. Stephanie loves Matt’s laugh. Matt still finds her to be the most beautiful girl he has ever seen.

They’ve known each other since high school and 11 years later, still deeply in love, and getting married soon in sunny Cabo San Lucas.

A lot of the times we think that when two people finally find each other later in life, it’s that much more special. Not to say it isn’t necessarily. But I think it’s equally special when two people find each other early on in life but have stayed together. It’s not easy, being high school sweethearts. Not that it’s ever easy in any relationship per se, but there seems to be a little extra difficulty with young relationships because we are at a stage where we are still learning and growing so much, and changing so much. It’s incredibly easy to grow apart. These guys have stuck together, they’ve grown together, and I’m sure, will enjoy many more happy years together.

I can’t wait to be a part of their wedding next week.

Document Love: Lindsey & Tyler // Hamilton Engagement Photography

These two! I know every photographer probably feels this way about their clients, but oh, I get to meet such amazing and kind people. Lindsey and Tyler are one of those people. They are getting married tomorrow and though I’m a little behind with blogging my Spring sessions, here’s their Document Love session. We started in their home, where they played some lawn games and hung out with their favourite furry friend, Rupert. Then we headed out to stroll along one of many amazing mountain passes (is that what they are called?) in Hamilton.

Really excited to be a part of your wedding day tomorrow!

Is seeing really believing? How about when someone else is doing the “seeing” for you?

Or what about when you start running with your eyes closed?

We ended the session at the site of Lindsey’s old high school. Tyler almost proposed here!

Document Love: Hayley & Mark // Toronto Engagement Photography

Hayley & Mark are getting married on Sunday! When I first met them back in November, on a chilly evening, we sat and talked about their wedding plans, how they met, their story. Somewhere in the conversation, we discovered that Hayley’s dad is good friends with one of my psychology professors from University of Toronto. It really is a small world.

I adore these two. They are so genuinely kind, they make each other laugh and they inspire the best in each other. For their Document Love/engagement session, we went to High Park on a warm Spring evening. Hayley & Mark live just down the street and often take their cute pup, Pixel for walks there.

Sunday is going to be amazing, because that’s what happens when you’ve got great people and lots of love.

Document Love: Anna Maria & Duy // Niagara-on-the-Lake engagement photography

Anna Maria & Duy: high school sweethearts, bicycle lovers, and food lovers. They are laid back and appreciate the simple things in life – my kind of people. :) Their engagement was quite a story! It involved a special trip to the Bahamas, jet skiing, Duy almost losing the ring, and a proposal in the middle of the azure Caribbean ocean. So incredibly sweet. I love a good engagement story . For their Document Love/engagement session, we took a day trip to Niagara-on-the-Lake because they love biking in the area. We walked around downtown Niagara on the Lake, made a geltao stop (yum!), and walked around the neighbour by the lake. It was a beautiful Fall afternoon to be spent in the company of two great people.

Anna & Duy, I’m super excited for your wedding in September!

Document Love: Simona & Daryl {A Relaxed Engagement Session at Home}

If you missed the sneak peek from Simona & Daryl’s relaxed engagement session, it’s here.

What can I say about these two love birds? They are so in love and so cute. They make each other laugh and absolutely adore each other, and their cute Boston Terrier, Oreo. From the first time I met them, I knew that we would work well together. :) For their engagement session, they really wanted something unconventional and non-posey, which is exactly how I feel about “engagement photos” as well. So we crafted a custom session for them that included a walk in the park where Daryl proposed, as well as some down time at home doing things they love and just hanging out. I really enjoyed documenting all of it.

Thanks guys, for letting me share a little part of your Sunday and I can’t wait to photograph your wedding at the Royal Botanical Gardens in June! You are perfect together and your home is so lovely. Enjoy the photos!
