Tamara & Jon's Wedding Love story: Toronto Wedding Photography

A little story about Tamara and Jon. Also sounds like (a little ditty bout Jack and Diane lo) jk…I met these two crazy love birds back in early 2022. We had just come out of the never ending Pandemic and spoke over a zoom call. I knew right away how much fun we would have at their wedding.

A little story about Tamara and Jon. Also sounds like (a little ditty bout Jack and Diane lo) jk…I met these two crazy love birds back in early 2022. We had just come out of the never ending Pandemic and spoke over a zoom call. I knew right away how much fun we would have at their wedding.

We planned a beach engagement session and met at the Bluffs on a very humid later afternoon. Sandy toes, side splitting laughs, and at the end sweat running down our brows and excited to see what we created together.

Fast forward to their wedding day. Another STUNNER of a day for Tamara and Jon. Here’s a sneak peak of their beautiful and FUN day!

Royal Ashburn Summer Wedding Couple

Planning a wedding is stressful enough. There is a lot to do. I get it. Been there :) However if I can offer a little piece of advice…remember to have fun. Stressing over every single detail leaves you unable to enjoy and be present. Love and let go. After all, just look into your partner’s eyes and know that everything will be perfect when you have each other.

Tamara and Jon, thank you so much for having myself and Hilary document your Wedding Day. It was such a blast. You’re chemistry and love for one another is one of a kind. Any fool can see that. Telling your love story was so easy to do when a love like yours is so clear to see. Cheers to you guys!

Wishing you a lifetime of love and happiness. All the best and till we meet again!

Fall Engagement Couple

I have the BEST clients I tell you! I am not lying either. Meet Natalie & Aly. They reached out early in the year for a consult on their upcoming wedding. We connected over the phone during our first lockdown. Right from the beginning, they were both so amazing and easy to talk/work with. Major props too Natalie for being such an organized bride to be, that she made my job that much more easy. Well done!!

As soon as we had the green light to do so, we couldn’t wait to get their engagement session done. We picked a week during fall that allowed us to take advantage of these GORGEOUS colours. But man oh man was it freezing! You’d never know with these two though. Hot couple alert right? lol

Hee hee…..she cute right?

So when the 3 of us were planning out their engagement session, Natalie asked if her sweet puppy could join. Ummm YES! Meet Willow. She was such a good girl and the sweetest while we were taking pictures too. She made us laugh though…check out her paw on Aly when they cuddled in for a kiss. She’s like…nope…I saw her first haaa..

Sweet thang….
