Spent a really fun afternoon with Rebecca, RJ and Jake at the distillery on one of the last great weather weekends of the year. Definitely one of those cases where there are almost too many great photos to choose from.

Liberty Village has become one of my absolutely favourite locations in the city to take photos. Not only is there such a wide variety of backdrops, but the light just glows off the old brick and best of all, it’s free to shoot. Here are samples from three different engagement shoots I [...]

Family portraits don’t come much more fun that this, thanks entirely to the Blandizzi family. Each and everyone of them was a trooper, putting up with swarms of bugs, ants, a rushing stream, heat and a fair amount of jumping and running.

What a fun engagement shoot. Beautiful day, beautiful location and beautiful people.

I do find it a little strange posting an engagement portrait of a beautiful fall day when it is so nasty cold and snowy outside, but that’s what happens when you get behind on updating your blog. Fun day with Sam, Marco & Sabertooth in High Park in Toronto. Yes, there is a [...]

Every year the Goldberg family comes up with another fun and creative holiday family photo, and this year was no exception. The shoot was inspired by an ad they found in a magazine. There was quite a bit of photoshop needed for the sides of the box, but they were actually sitting in [...]
