Note: *Totally* romantic, movie-worthy proposal story after the photos! Stephanie and Brian wanted to do their engagement photos at a place that was significant to them (which I love to do!), so they chose the neighbourhood where they first met, in downtown Toronto where they had gone to college together before their undergrads. We strolled around, weaving through the streets on what was an unbelievably beautiful, warm Fall day. I admired Stephanie’s ability to strut totally comfortably in her gorgeous plum heels as though they were sneakers. It was totally cute hearing the two of them talk about the different buildings they had classes in, discussing memories, and pointing out… Keep Reading
Meagan & Adriano – Married!
Ah, Meagan and Adriano. Two absolutely lovestruck people who make such a beautiful complimentary pair. As Adriano mentioned in his reception speech, Meagan’s happy, bubbly personality captivated him from the start and lifts his spirits – which tend to be on the more serious side like his poker-faced father (who I got to know and think is actually such a sweetheart). But, you wouldn’t guess it if you were to be in the presence of the two of them together – When he holds and gazes at Meagan, Adriano’s always got the softest, most tender look on his face and the most gentle and carefree smile. I’m actually getting a… Keep Reading
Meagan & Adriano – Sneak Peek!
Been pretty sleepy today after shooting Meagan & Adriano’s wedding yesterday, but I had such an amazing time! Couldn’t help but dance along with everyone as I photographed the party later in the evening. I’ve sifted through the photos and picked out my favourites, and now it’s time for bed! But first, here’s a little sneak peek from this super nice couple’s beautiful big day. The warmth of the sunlight was nothing compared to the warmth in their eyes! Can’t wait to edit the rest – More to come soon!

Meagan & Adriano – Engaged!
Meagan and Adriano had a sense they were meant for each other before they had even technically met – they found each other online and knew the chemistry was right. They began dating and on their 2-year anniversary Adriano proposed at dinner – with a unique twist. His family owns a flatbread company that has its name in grocery stores across the country and naturally, since it’s so delicious, they planned to have some of it with their meal. Adriano saw an opportunity to surprise Meagan and he hid the ring in the flatbread box – she was genuinely surprised and elated! I had the honour of photographing these two… Keep Reading
