Actor Headshots

The Community Players of New Hamburg

I've been working with the Community Players of New Hamburg for a couple years now and I'm really excited to be working with them again in 2014 for their production of Ragtime!

First up was some simple, black and white headshots of all the cast and crew for their bio's in the program that will be handed out at the show.

Next up I will start shooting the rehearsals and then the set build!

Tickets go on sale April 5th!

Nith Ridge Estates Wedding Photography

Janessa + Scott

Hot.  It was damn hot.

But Janessa + Scott still had amazing summer wedding at the Nith Ridge Estates just outside of Cambridge, Ontario back in the summer of 2013!

I spent the morning with some hair and makeup with the girls and then off for a couple holes of golf with the guys.  Nith Ridge Estates has a beautiful amphitheatre for outdoor ceremonies and a beautiful (and large!) tent for receptions.  After the ceremony, and chugging some water, we headed off for some portraits with Janessa + Scott and the wedding party.

Soon after the wedding Janessa and Scott headed off to Africa for a couple months of missionary work!

ISPWP Winter Contest

award-winning-toronto-wedding-photograph

Was really happy to see one of my images placed in the winter photography contest for the International Society of Professional Wedding Photographers in the wedding reception category. The ISPWP is a group of some of the worlds best wedding photographers so to have one of my wedding photographs place is really an honour.

 I love this shot of the groom as he uses his teeth to remove the garter from his new bride!

You can see the full gallery of award winning wedding photographs here as well as my listing on ISPWP here!

Liuna Station Wedding Photography

in

Iolanda & Ed

Iolanda & Ed had a beautiful winter wedding in Hamilton at Liuna Station surrounded by their closest family & friends.  The weather was decent... we avoided one of those brutal cold spells by a couple of days!

Iolanda is actually the sister of one of my past grooms who married a good friend of my wife... still with me?  :)  Anyways, I love weddings like that because it's easier for me to blend into the action since half the people already know me and have seen me photograph a wedding before.

Ed's a chef (probably what I'd be doing if I wasn't a photographer!) at a fine dining restaurant so I had to refrain from just asking him questions all day.  :)

Muskoka Wedding Photography

Cassandra + Jesse

Continuing on the blogging of some past 2013 weddings....

Cassandra & Jesse live in Montreal but were married at the amazing The Ridge at Manitou in Ontario's Muskoka region.  It was an amazing (but hot!) day as they were surrounded by their family and friends for an amazing ceremony on the waters edge.

Steamwhistle Wedding Photography

Kelly + Mike

 

With the switch over to the new website and blog I thought I'd use some of my downtime this winter (although I seem pretty busy this year!) to reblog some of my favourite weddings from the past couple years... So here is Kelly + Mike's amazing wedding at the SteamWhistle Brewery in downtown Toronto.

The wedding was super relaxed from everyone chipping in making centrepieces; the mom's making all the cookies for the midnight table, the boys playing video games in the hotel suite and then walking over to Steam Whistle... Funny story, ComiCon was going on that day so the guys in their tuxes were mistaken for being dressed up as Men in Black during the walk over!  All in all, a really relaxed vibe throughout the day.  

Kelly and Mike wanted very few posed pictures (I actually had to talk them into doing a few more!) so it allowed me to focus on what I love... capturing great moments!  One of the best was when Mike played guitar while Kelly danced with her dad.
