Valencienne

This was shot a few months back at Valencienne. It's a lovely bridal boutique here in Toronto with absolutely gorgeous dresses. If you're still looking for 'that' dress - I highly recommend you pay Kim a visit and check out her work.

Ancaster Wedding



I haven't updated my main site in quite some time. Actually, I haven't included any images from the last year and a half (over 40 weddings). It's going to be quite the task to go though all my images and pick which ones I want to showcase. These two caught my eye from Tassie and Matt's wedding this past June in Ancaster.

Downtown Wedding





Here are some shots of the bride (Toula) from the slideshow below. I could go on-and-on about how much I enjoyed shooting this wedding - I'll just say that it was very 'special'!

Minimalist


Over the years, I've reduced the amount of gear I bring to weddings to shoot with. Now, I only shoot with one body and two lenses. In my bag though, I'll have an extra body just in case with another lens attached. There's also one flash unit in there, but it's rarely (if ever) used.

I'm such a miminalist that the only equipment on me is an extra memory card. I'm probably the only photographer I know of that doesn't even shoot with camera straps!

Because of the way I shoot, I find that the "best" shots are when I blend-in with all the guests. That's how I capture "these" genuine moments. Unfortunately, I wasn't close enough to hear the joke, but it seems pretty funny!


Video

Rob (from DS) accompanied me at one of my shoots for a bride's final dress fitting. I'm not a "video guy" but I really admire his work - it's current, cool, and different! He got some great footage of the shoot.
