It’s kind of impossible to choose the perfect day for your engagement photos when you are planning an outdoor shoot in the middle of a town you’ve never been to - you never know what can happen with the weather, or what might be happening in the town - but one of the things that increases the chances of success, is choosing a week day for the shoot. Places are usually crowded on weekends and choosing a day in the middle of the week was the key to our success.

As the sun stretched its golden fingers across the sky, Christine's wedding morning kicked off in style. Surrounded by her squad of bridesmaids and the comforting presence of family, the excitement was palpable. Picture this: Christine rocking her stunning Chinese red Cheongsam, blending tradition with her own flair, while her crew brought the party vibes.

We set our alarms for an ungodly hour, agreeing to meet at the parking lot of Samuel Smith Park at 5:30 am sharp. With the sunrise scheduled for 6 am, we wanted to make sure we didn't miss a moment of that golden hour magic.

As expected, David and Jen's furry companions, Mason and Atreus, were up bright and early, their wagging tails and eager eyes a testament to their excitement for the day ahead. But before we unleashed the dogs (pun intended) onto the scene, I wanted to focus on capturing some intimate moments between the couple.

Victoria and GuenChan's story is a testament to love in the digital age. Their romance blossomed from a Tinder match during the isolating times of the COVID-19 pandemic. Their bond deepened over texts and calls, filled with anticipation for the day they could meet in person. Not being able to wait until the lockdown was over - it was GuenChan's impromptu climb onto Victoria's balcony that turned their digital connection into a real-life fairy tale, blending modern dating with a touch of Romeo & Juliet romance.

As the sun rose over the Sue-Ann Staff Estate and Winery, it promised a day of love, laughter, and rustic elegance. Nestled amidst the vineyards, this venue was more than just a place; it was a picturesque canvas where Jen and David's unique love story unfolded.

I just went back to look at Alicia and Joel’s wedding photos, and OMG!!! What a fun and happy morning. I already knew their vibe from the Toronto Bridal Show when we first met a couple of years back, and after their engagement photos, I was 100% sure that the wedding day was going to rock. And knowing that they booked Casa Loma for the ceremony and The Eglinton Grand for the reception, two of my favourites venues, that day had everything to be one of the most beautiful weddings of the year for me, and it was :D

Undoubtedly, a wedding is one of the most important milestones in a person's life. It marks the beginning of a new journey with the love of your life. However, planning a wedding can be a daunting task, especially when it comes to choosing the perfect venue. In recent years, specially after the pandemic, backyard weddings have become increasingly popular among couples

Officially Archeo at Distillery District is the venue that I shot most of my weddings, and let me tell something, every time I come back, there’s a different feeling. And this time with Rachel and Ajay wasn’t different. And I hope to keep coming back more and more.

When Princess Beatrice got married past summer, all everyone could talk about was her wedding dress and compare it to the wedding gowns of all the other royals that got married in the last several decades. And that’s how it usually goes at most weddings - the wedding dress gets most of the attention while the other outfit details are seen as secondary.

Almost 99% of the time the getting ready is one of most fun moments on the wedding day, specially for me, because I have a lot of time to play with something creative, create something new. It is the time when everyone is just relaxed, it's the storm calm before the storm. And Adam and Geoff's wedding morning wasn't different, it was just laughs from the beginning to the end.

When planning your dream wedding, choosing the perfect venue is one of the most important decisions you will make. The Greater Toronto Area (GTA) is home to some of the most stunning wedding venues in Canada, from rustic barns to elegant ballrooms. In this article, we'll guide you through the best wedding venues in Toronto GTA, with a focus on style, budget, and convenience.

Sometimes we meet special couples, some couples that just challenge us, some couples that want more than just the regular. Usually most of our couples are like that, but Jess and Jay just pushed that boundaries way way up, and I love that!!! 
In the first meeting at their house, I knew from the beginning of our conversation that couple was a little different. 

As you guys know I am not a wedding dress specialist, but I tried to put together this blog to help a little bit some of our future brides.
Choosing the right wedding dress can be a daunting task, but with these tips, you'll be able to find a dress that makes you feel confident and beautiful on your big day:

am a big fan of new year’s eve wedding, specially in cold weather.
Couple years back I did photograph my first new year’s eve wedding at Horseshoe Valley for Rosie and Shayne’s wedding , and it was a lot fun.At this time was even more special, I received the honor to do a destination wedding in Philadelphia.I have no idea how Liz and Erik found me in Toronto, but luckily, they did :)

Walking down the bustling and trendy Queen Street in downtown Toronto, past the tattoo parlours, boutique clothing stores, and dispensaries, it’s easy to get caught up in all the hustle and bustle of the city and never notice the hidden gem that is The Lodge On Queen

We were all watching the weather very closely the days leading up to Liz and Cesar’s wedding at Ball’s Falls Conservation area. The forecast promised rain…A LOT of rain. Liz and Cesar were hoping for a romantic outdoor ceremony in the courtyard of the Glen Elgin Room at the Center for Conservation, and Diego and I were super excited to go exploring Ball’s Falls

At every one of our initial meetings with our couples, we always tell our couples that as much as we’d love to spend a dedicated day hanging out with them and creating fun and creative photos with them, we fully understand that a wedding day is not a portrait session. We want our couples to enjoy everyone moment with their family and friends. When we met Karol and Michael though, they right away told us they’d like to skip their getting ready to have more time for those fun and creative portraits, and you know we had to jump at the opportunity.

Ok, so we may be kind of obsessed with Kelso Conservation Area in Milton. It was our third time shooting an engagement shoot there in 12 months, and we are already excited for the next time! Kelso Conservation Area just has so many unique and fun spots to shoot at, endless possibilities to create, and when we have an amazingly fun couple like Jordana and Jeremy to come along for the ride, Diego and I have to work hard to contain our excitement.

Christina and Travis’ wedding at the Eglinton West Gallery, like most Covid weddings, had to be rescheduled on more than one occasion. Who knew we’d still be dealing with all these restrictions so far into 2021?! But as August of 2021 came, and restrictions were gradually being lifted, it was finally time for Christina and Travis to get married

One of our favourite parts of being wedding photographers is the connections and friendships we build with our couples. It’s even more special when those connections extend to the family and friends as well. We met Madeline and Corey a few years back at Shelby and Adam’s wedding at the Stonewall Estate, where Madeline was a bridesmaid for her sister Shelby and Corey was a groomsman for Adam.

Diego and I have been waiting for Becky and Kyle’s wedding for the past 2.5 years. I remember so clearly our first meeting with them, where we sat and chatted for close to 3 hours about everything from their wedding to life in general. It was like catching up with old friends. At that time though I remember us thinking that 2.5 years is ages from now

Let me tell you, Diego and I are not morning people. Not even a tiny bit. But when an amazingly cool couple, like Christine and Cesar, tells us they want to do a sunrise engagement shoot, we are out of bed and on site long before the couple has arrived. Unlike sunset engagement shoots, where we can take our time enjoying the sunset colours

One of my favourite things about living in Canada is experiencing the four seasons and everything they have to offer. It’s always so much fun to see how some of our favourite spots change with the seasons so we were beyond excited when Kyla and Riley chose Kelso Conservation Area for their summer engagement shoot.

The sweet backyard wedding of Julee and Martin had Diego and I leave with sore cheeks from all the smiling and laughing, for you see, Julee and Martin have the most infectious smiles and laughs, and absolutely the biggest hearts! When we arrived at the family home to begin capturing their big day, the home was already full with so much love and joy from everyone around them. While Julee was getting all dolled up and ready for her first look with Martin, family and friends were all around helping to finalize and set up all the last minute details for the outdoor backyard ceremony and reception.

Reza and Shadi contacted us just days before their upcoming wedding. As soon as it was announced that some Covid restrictions were lifting in Ontario, they jumped at the opportunity to say their I do’s in front of their closest family and friends in their family backyard. Shadi and Reza’s wedding, with its gorgeous backyard decor and cultural elements, mouth watering Persian food, and lots of love and laughter surrounding the couple, was the perfect example that even the smallest and most intimate wedding can be the most magical and memorable days of your life.
