Our wonderful friends Shannon & Jake were married on May 4th, 2013 in Fergus, Ontario – and what a fabulous wedding it was!  The ceremony took place at the Fergus Curling Club, and right afterwards, along with the wedding party & family members, I followed the Happy Couple down to a very lovely little park overlooking the Grand River for some fabulous & timeless formals!  Following that, we returned to the Curling Club for a truly fun night of reception celebration!

Congratulations to Shannon & Jake – and we thank you very much for all of your fabulous hospitality!  Here are some of the selected highlights:

 

On January 5, 2013 we photographed the wonderful & amazing wedding of Holly & Matt!  We had previously worked with the fantastic couple in November 2012 for a very lovely Engagement shoot (click link to view their engagement photos)

What a grand wedding it was! Our day started at the hotel where Holly and all the lovely ladies in her wedding party were getting ready, followed by a very special & memorable church ceremony. We all then hopped on the Party Bus and took a drive over to Hernder Estate Winery for a fantastic time capturing fun and relaxed formals with the happy couple & their wedding party and family! The location was superb and we all had an awesome time!

The Wedding finished off at John Michael’s Centre for an evening of fun & fantastic reception moments & memories!

Congratulations to Holly & Matt!! … we thank you both for your generous and warm hospitality – we had a truly wonderful day with you and all of your loved ones.

The happy couple are set to be married in January 2013, and they had requested for a fun & relaxed fall colour outdoor engagement shoot, and to also include their three wonderful children – who were brought to the park by their uncle. We met with the kids towards the end of our shoot, so that we could capture some awesome family portraits!

Our good friends Shannon and Jake are set to be married in May 2013, and I had visited them in late July for a fun-filled engagement photo shoot!  We began our shoot at a farm just outside of Acton Ontario, and then we traveled to their home city of Guelph to finish off the shoot at Riverside Park.  We all had a fantastic time capturing moments of the Happy Couple’s love for each other!

We met with our wonderful friends & clients Ellie and Steve, for a fun-filled engagement shoot in the Old Town Niagara-on-the-Lake. We took a walk throughout the town, made a quick stop to where the happy couple will be holding their wedding reception at Queens Landing, and then we ended the afternoon engagement shoot on the lovely grounds of the Commons.

Big Congrats to Ellie and Steve on their upcoming wedding in September – we look forward to being there to capture more of their wonderful memories!

Here are the engagement shoot highlights:

 

In late June, I met with Kelly and Kevin at the very lovely and picturesque Gairloch Gardens. The wonderful couple were just about to be wed on July 14th, and so I visited them in their hometown, and we decided upon the Gardens as the place for their timeless pre-wedding memories to be photographed. This was my first time at the location, and I was immediately astounded over how beautiful of a spot it was! It was absolutely perfect for capturing Kelly and Kevin’s joy and love!

Here are some of our favourite highlights:

We met with our good friends Corinne & Brad for a lovely engagement shoot – which began with a stroll around the always scenic Queenston Heights, we then took a drive down into the town of Queenston and made a quick stop for some captures at the Mackenzie Printery.  We then ended off our fantastic afternoon photo shoot at the majestic Willowbank School of Restoration Arts.

We were visited this past week by our wonderful friends Shannon & Scott from Kitchener. The wonderful couple are set to be married this August 2012, and had chosen to come to Niagara Falls for their engagement photo shoot!

We began the photo shoot with a lovely walk around the always dynamic grounds of Queenston Heights, which was followed by a quick stop at Kurtz Orchards, and then ended the fantastic shoot along the beautiful Niagara Parkway, adjacent to the Historic McFarland House. We were also joined by the couple’s wedding DJ and my great friend Blake Belcher, who did a fabulous job being my assistant with the photo-lighting!

Big Thanks and Congratulations to Shannon & Scott – we’re looking forward to your very Special Day in August!

Here are the awesome highlights from the Engagement Shoot:

I met with my wonderful friends Lisa & Brad last week at Queenston Heights for a fun & memorable Engagement Photo Shoot!

The spring colours were absolutely fabulous and we all had a great time capturing some truly timeless moments of the soon-to-be married couple’s love – Lisa and Brad are to be married this October, and we’re really looking forward to being there to photograph their very Special Day!

Big thanks go out to Lisa and Brad for an awesome shoot – thank you as well to Queenston Heights for always making any of our shoots wonderful, and a big thank you to the Chestnut Inn Bed & Breakfast in Niagara Falls for letting us use their very lovely grounds and gazebo.

Here are the highlights:

At the beginning of October, we met with our good friends and clients Rosalind & Mark at St. John’s Conservation Area for a fun-filled engagement photo shoot! The couple also brought along their ultra-happy & friendly Husky Dog for the walk through the park.  We all had a grand time capturing timeless images of love – and the fall colours were absolutely perfect for the shoot!

The Happy Couple are set to be married on July 27, 2012 and we’re looking forward to seeing them again soon as well as being their wedding photographers for their special day!

Thanks again and Congrats to Rosalind & Mark!!

 

Baby Maisey McLaughlin was 8lb 7oz when she was born on August 25, 2011 – and she was 5 days old when we were invited by her very proud parents – our wonderful  friends Abby & Tom McLaughlin – to stop over for a visit and for a few newborn portraits.

We wanted some relaxed portraits of Maisey moments with her father in the nursery – and here are the highlights!

Thanks again to Abby & Tom and a big congrats on the new addition to your family!!

I met with my friends and clients Nathalie & Matt for a fun-filled and very adorable engagement session along the Niagara Parkway on July 14th – three months and one day from the lovely couple’s wedding date this October!

We parked our cars at Dufferin Islands, and took a walk through the picturesque Queen Victoria Park above the Horseshoe Falls, and captured some very lovely & love-filled photos!

Thanks to Nathalie & Matt for such a fantastic shoot – we look forward to seeing you soon on your Special Day!

Here are the shoot highlights:

We were comped a night’s stay at the Sheraton on the Falls on Canada Day – and we were given a quaint but lovely room on the 22nd floor – and what a room with view we had over Niagara Falls!!  This gave us an excellent opportunity to nab some nifty photos of the Falls, the Niagara Parkway, as well as the splendid display of Canada Day Fireworks over the Falls later that night!  Thanks to everyone for an awesome night and for the wonderful little getaway for Canada Day!

As I was rocking my 200mm zoom to capture the epic photo of the Horseshoe Falls above, I was subsequently attacked by a pigeon – presumably guarding his roost adjacent to our 22nd-floor hotel room balcony. The below series of photos will show my attempt to at least capture the bird attack – which was obviously happening far closer (and faster) than what my zoom was able to handle!

and so after that, I zoomed back on the Falls and captured a full frontal amazing angle of the entire water’s edge side of the Toronto Power Generating Station.

 

Queen Victoria Park was getting pretty packed with people to watch the fireworks & take in the fun of Canada Day at Niagara Falls!

Two really neat captures of Oakes Garden Theatre

The American Falls

Remember our friend the Pigeon? This was it’s roost. Lucky bird to hang out there all day with such an awesome view!

…And then another pigeon came along

The Fireworks are about to commence! Happy Canada Day 2011 everyone!

We are always out and about with our cameras – and we love to be captured doing what we do best! Here is a collection of some of the best behind the scenes moments – as captured by us and by others!

Enjoy!
