Your Shop Girl Relaunch {Bobbette & Belle}

Your Shop Girl offers wardrobe consultations and comprehensive personal style and image makeovers, complete with personal shopping. I had the opportunity to be a part of the relaunch event a few weeks ago. If you missed the sneak peek, it’s here, and below are some favourites from the evening. Everyone enjoyed delicious treats from Bobbette & Belle (my favourite was the Cassis macaron of course) as well as hors d’oeuvre from Yorkshire Pudding. chatted amongst friends, enjoyed a 5-minute makeover, and received a colour consultation by Suzanne, who is the creator and owner of Your Shop Girl.

The event was very well put together (no pun intended!) and had a very intimate feel to it, thanks to Amalia from Talen Events.

Greg & Thea {Restaurant Wedding: Earth Bloor West} // Toronto Wedding Photography

Greg & Thea tied the knot a week after Thanksgiving in an intimate event filled with lots of love, laughter and DIY projects. Even though it was raining on and off all day, nothing could have dampened their celebration of love, family and friends. Their wedding was held at the modern yet classic Earth restaurant in Bloor West Village. The setting was romantic and lent to the intimate atmosphere of the wedding, and the food, well the food was fabulous. I felt very honoured to be a part of Greg & Thea’s special day and to be able to document their story. Once again one of my favourite part of the day was the ceremony. Take a look below, and you’ll see why. It involves a DIY backdrop which was filled with their story. They are both readers, so it came at no surprise that words and stories were a big part of their day.

Congratulations Greg & Thea, may your life together continue to be filled with love, and laughter for the years to come!

The kissing game got a little out of hand, Greg does not look impressed. 

Thea’s dad gave a wonderful speech that has us all in stitches.

Document Love: Mandy & Sean // High Park portraits

You don’t have to be engaged, or married, or having a baby to have your photographs taken. You just need to be in love. Mandy & Sean are the embodiment of that philosophy for me. Mandy chose High Park as the location for their session as they’ve spent a lot of time there together. And, it was a birthday gift for Sean. In fact, for Mandy’s birthday in the summer, Sean planned a scavenger hunt in the park! How fun is that? Wish I could’ve documented that too. :) Here are some of my personal favourites from their Document Love session, enjoy!
