Mary + Nak | A Day at the Fair
I almost threw up during this engagement shoot. I kid you not. Note to all photographers … or basically anyone … do not try to take photos while on a ride that spins at ridiculous g-forces. It will not end well. What kept it all... [Read more]
Zari + Pedro | A Ritz Carlton Montreal Wedding
The first wedding of the year is always special. We spend the winter months going over the previous year, learning new techniques that we end up dying to try out; but above it all, we are just itching to shoot. So I went into Zari & Pedro’s... [Read more]
Couple Session :: Caitlin + Cody
If you are like my wife and I, you probably don’t have too many photos of just the two of you (before or after marriage). Sure we bring our camera everywhere and take photos of each other, but it’s more difficult to get someone else... [Read more]
2012 | A Year in Review
2012 was a huge year me both personally and professionally. It was the first year of little Emma’s life and I am glad to have been able to spend a lot of time with her. It was also my busiest season to date. I had the privilege of witnessing... [Read more]
Reema + Joe | Day 2 : Head Over Heels
Just last week I introduced Reema and Joe with the first day of their wedding double header. Now we move on to day 2 with their big Italian wedding! Unlike the previous day, we had the opportunity to shoot some creative portraits in Kleinburg,... [Read more]
Reema + Joe | Day 1 : You got the right stuff
Thanks to Reema and Joe, my 2012 wedding season closed out with a blast … in fact, it was a double blast! Let me explain. When people ask “which cultures often have the largest guest count?”, what first comes to my mind is... [Read more]
Melissa + Andrew | The Show Stealer
I first met Melissa and Andrew a week before their wedding day. I’ve never met a couple so close to the big day, but it was a special situation since both were residing in Alberta. Naturally, our first interactions were all through email... [Read more]
Janet + Louis | Dub-steppin’
It’s rare that I shoot a wedding where I know several of the guests, it makes me want to join in on the party! Mos tof the time I hold in the urge, but when Gangnam Style came on … well, I just couldn’t resist! Oppa Gangnam... [Read more]
Jeannie + Johan | Time Traveling
Jeannie & Johan had a wedding like I’ve never seen; they wanted a vintage feel to the wedding and they nailed it. The beautiful little city of Ormstown was the perfect backdrop. From St. Paul’s United Church for the ceremony... [Read more]
Family Shoot :: The Duhemes
I’ve got to say, taking photos of a 3 year old is no easy task. Babies just sit around, maybe roll or crawl; but once a kid can run it becomes a whole new ball game. At the same time, I love it! I love seeing them in their natural surroundings,... [Read more]
Emma + Bernie | Two Peas in a Pod
I knew these two were perfect for each other just based on their sense of humour. They were dead on! And it showed throughout the wedding reception. I’ve never been to a wedding with so many well written jokes. There were tears everywhere,... [Read more]
Engaged! :: Emma + Bernie
After a flurry of weddings in Spring I am currently enjoying a few weeks off. It’s perfect. I’m spending more time with Julie and Baby Emma. Enjoying some of the festivals Montreal has to offer (there recently was a bunch of food... [Read more]
Hayley + Matt | All You Need is Love
I was pumped for this wedding. I couldn’t wait. I couldn’t contain my excitement! Maybe it was because this would be the furthest I’ve traveled to shoot a wedding. I know, it’s not that far. Collingwood, a mere 2 hours... [Read more]
Engaged! :: Janet + Louis
Not too long ago I took a trip with Julie and baby Emma to the Montreal Botanical Gardens. I instantly fell in love with the Chinese Gardens and couldn’t stop thinking about shooting an engagement shoot there. Naturally, I emailed Janet... [Read more]
Andrea + Shawn | Hey Ya!
Andrea and Shawn are such a kind soft-spoken couple that I really enjoyed watching Shawn sing out to Outcast’s “Hey ya!” (see the photo of him with his hands up). That’s part of the reason I love photographing people... [Read more]
IRIS Albums :: The sexy friend
I absolutely LOOOOOOOVE getting packages. It’s like Christmas, but Santa is dressed in brown shorts and always looks like he’s in a rush. So when I received a box the other day, I knew exactly what it was. Annah & Frank’s... [Read more]
Tal + Jeff | Bringing out the waterworks
Sometimes you just meet the greatest people. Tal and Jeff are more than that. They are down to earth, kind hearted and considerate individuals. They cooked me dinner as we went over their wedding day schedule (mmmmm, it was good!) and they even... [Read more]
My one regret
Since I am always surrounded by weddings Julie and I often find ourselves reflecting back on our wedding day. We loved every aspect of it; delicious cake, fantastic organizers, beautiful venue, and of course jaw-dropping photos. It was absolutely... [Read more]
Jackie + Jonny | An Elegant Royal Affair
The time has finally come. My first wedding of the season! I was getting antsy waiting for this one. It’s been months since I shot a wedding and I was starting to really miss it. I was dying to get out into the sun and get creative …... [Read more]
Keep It Simple Stupid
I love receiving packages in the mail; it always feels like Christmas! When I saw this package arrive I was particularly pumped, it was my first sample album from KISS Wedding Books. KISS provides some of the most well-crafted classic albums... [Read more]
