Rachel + Peter – Richmond Hill, Ontario

For this wedding I second shot alongside Toronto photographer, Calla Evans.

Rachel and Peter had a fantastic venue to hold their ceremony and reception, the Oakville Terrace in Richmond Hill. It is a secluded, lush and spacious venue with amazing views, perfect for such an important day. Everytime I looked at Peter, he always had a big, bright smile on his face. Perhaps it was because Rachel looked absolute stunning (not to say you didn’t look handsome yourself Peter *wink* ).

Rachel is a talented Graphic Designer which meant no detail was overlooked; from the invite to the table numbers, to the packaging for the guest favors. From one Graphic Designer to another, Rachel you did an amazing, amazing job!

Thank you Rachel and Peter for letting me be a part of your beautiful day, I wish you both all the best!

Ioanna + Murray – Toronto, Ontario

For this wedding, I was the second shooter alongside the amazing Toronto photographer Calla Evans.

This special day started over at Murray’s parent’s house with bright beautiful sun, clear blue skies and the odd fluff of cloud. Calla and I knew that the weather forecast called for thunder showers, but we didn’t believe it since there was no sign of a dark cloud at all. As we moved towards Ioanna’s mom’s place to see the girls, the sun still danced away in the sky. Then the afternoon came and so did the clouds and heavy warm rain drops – but that didn’t stop the smiles and from Ioanna and Murray at the ceremony. The reception was held at the Scaboro Golf & Country Club which over looks Lake Ontario, but as the rain poured all we could see was the misty fog and trees. Then an hour before dinner was served, the clouds parted, the sun coloured the sky and revealed the breathtaking view of the water – what a beautiful sight.

Thank you Ioanna and Murray for a great day, your smiles and positive energy’s made everything perfect.

Janet + Cliff – Toronto, Ontario

This wedding is a wedding I shot alongside talented photographer Tara McMullen.

Janet + Cliff had a fun and heartfelt day at King Valley Golf Club in Toronto, Ontario. But before the ceremony started, there were some Chinese traditions that needed to be completed first. I followed the guys from getting ready in the morning to going over to the bride’s home for some games that Janet’s bridesmaids held before ’surrendering’ the bride to Cliff.

These guys were great sports with some of the games they had to endure from these girls. One being wearing baby diapers and running through the house getting signatures from relatives of the bride on the, *ah-hem*, frontal region. All of the games were very entertaining for Tara and I, and we loved every minute of it.

Check out the pics below to see some of these moments caught on camera. Enjoy!

ROBIN + ROB – Toronto, Ontario

This entry is a wedding I second shot alongside talented Toronto photographer, Tara McMullen.

I started the day off by going to Rob’s condo to take pictures of him getting ready while Tara spent the morning with Robin. When I first saw Rob, he was dressed in a sharp three-piece suit with a pair of simple, yet colourful pair of polka dot socks. Then when I met up with Tara at the Steam Whistle Brewery I got my first look at Robin, she was radiant. She had her own elegant flare from her pink shoes to the feather hairpiece in her hair. These two definitely had a sophisticated style. Not only did they have a très chic aura about them, their guests had to have been the most unique, and stylish guests I have ever seen at a wedding. There were soo many guests with outfits I wanted to own! Ok, ok, Lisa enough about clothes. Check out some pics I took during this fun and amazing wedding. Enjoy!

DANIELLE + JEFF – Waterloo, Ontario

This is the second of three weddings I’m posting where I was a second shooter for barebonephoto.

I have to say that Danielle and Jeff are one of the most memorable and unique couples I have ever shot with Emma. They were both so sweet, nice and so relaxed – it almost felt like we weren’t even working! Danielle has an addictive smile and Jeff possesses a quirky sense of humour which was entertaining. Needless to say the day was filled with many laughs and memorable moments, one being where Jeff rapped his vows!!! It was quite the show and something I won’t forget. If you want to see the actual lyrics to his rap check it out on Emma’s blog.

Scroll down to check out some of the pics I captured from their special day. Enjoy!

LINDSEY + TIM – Toronto, Ontario

Here is the first of three weddings I will be posting where I was a second shooter under barebonephoto.

Lindsey and Tim were such a warm and welcoming couple. Their bridal party was funny and very comfortable having their pictures taken of them which made our jobs so much easier! We started off at their home downtown Toronto where the girls were and then headed to the Gladstone Hotel where the guys were getting ready. Their ceremony and reception was held at a great venue, the Steam Whistle Brewery

Be sure to check out Emma’s blog to see her pictures of this couple on their special day.
