2009 is certainly stacking up to be a busy season! Between weddings, engagement sessions, 2010 consultations and shooting a few of our own projects on the side we are more than filling up our days. I know we're a little behind with our blog posts, and we have so many amazing things to share with you! So, just to keep you on the edge of your seats, here's a small preview of things to come:
We had the pleasure of working with Val & Peter again (after the engagement session ;)) at the end of June for their fantastic black & white wedding! It was an elegant affair filled with class: the bridesmaids looked stunning in their stylish BCBG black dresses and accenting champagne roses. Not to mention how gorgeous Val looked in her gown!
We hopped in the car bright and early and headed north to capture Christina & Scott's day in Bayfeild. The drive was beautiful and we couldn't help but enjoy it- rolling hills, farm land and some perfectly fitting country music streaming out of our car radio from a local station. It was a great drive and we arrived in the morning to meet up with a very excited bride and groom.
Beverley & Vincent are one unique and hardworking couple! Beverley is currently finishing up her residency in Ottawa and they are planning their Toronto wedding with the help of their sister-in-law, Charlene. Lucky for them Charlene is a wedding planner from Picture Perfect Events in Southern California, and has been an immense help as she brings her expertise to plan this wedding long-distance.
Bev, Vince & I met up for the first time down in the Distillery District (their old stomping grounds) and wondered around in search of some great photos. It was awesome to finally meet the two of you in person and get to know you a bit better! :) Here are a few of my favourite shots from our session, stay tuned for photos from their wedding at Angus Glen in September.
From the perfectly timed Cherry Blossom theme to the live music at the ceremony, these two were right on the mark. They were comfortable and calm throughout the day and let the stormy weather slide right off their backs, which made our jobs easy.
The ceremony was held in the Royal Botanical Gardens, with a reception to follow at The Tower Garden Cafe. The photos in Korea Park fit perfectly with their theme, and there were Cheery Blossom petals were blowing all around, highlighting their colour palette and creating a stunning backdrop.
Trev & I knew that Val & Peter were going to be an awesome couple to work with from the moment we met them last year- they are laid back, cute and full of energy. Time has flown by since that consultation and the wedding is fast approaching... I met up with the two of them for their engagement session down in the Distillery District, which just happens to be one of their favourite areas to hang out in the city.
Val & Peter are light-hearted and approachable- and when you spend time with them it's clear to see that they are very much in love. They had a great chemistry and kept each other laughing throughout the entire shoot- as you can see from their photos below. :)
I had an awesome time hanging out with you both last Friday, Trevor & I can't wait to work with you at the wedding in June!
We started off with a beautiful ceremony at Victoria College Chapel at the University of Toronto where natural light & laughter filled the room. This couple was amazing- their excitement and love for each other coupled with their laid back attitude made for a spectacular day. The photo session at UofT was eventful, complete with a run-away veil that lodged itself up a tree! Aya laughed it off and Kurt along with the rest of the groomsmen came to the rescue with a giant make-shift veil-retriever! (see below)
Michelle & Frank were calm, cool, collected [and always on time] throughout their entire wedding. These two were all full of smiles, upbeat and happy all day - they even braved some rain in the afternoon with grins on their faces!
Ginger & Nic are a unique couple- having been together for more than ten years the two decided to tie the knot and we were lucky enough to be invited to capture the event! We had beautiful weather for their day and started off with a church ceremony and then headed to Piper's Heath in Milton to snap some photos and let the newlyweds enjoy the reception.
We've put together a few of our favorites from the day for you to browse through-enjoy!
Working with Jelena & Peter was a real pleasure- from the moment we met them we knew their wedding would be something special. The day went off with out a hitch and was filled with a lot of love and laughter.
