Toronto Wedding Photographers, Wedding Photography Toronto

Charlotte and I just got home from shooting the wedding of Julie and Paul (referred to us by another wonderful couple – Audrey & Jay) and we’re full of energy! With every wedding we shoot, Charlotte and I put in every ounce of passion, care and creativity we can muster, and sometime we arrive home in need of a foot message! We were so stoked to finally be able to photograph this awesome couple we met at Taboo resort just this summer. Julie and Paul were the type of couple who are passionate about everything they do – including having fun during their wedding photography… Today turned out to be pretty cold… I think it maxed out at -15°C! So when Julie and Paul still wanted to head down to Toronto’s Nathan Phillips Square, throw on some skates and scoot around the ice for an hour, Charlotte and I were impressed to say the least!!

We had a ball shooting them both, and will enjoy sharing the photos with you all soon, but for now I wanted to say a quick goodbye as we head down to Mystic, Connecticut for a wedding photographers convention. We’ll look forward to catching up with a bunch of ‘photografriends’ down there and take in some new ideas, techniques for both our photography, album design and business.

Seeing that we’re away for the week, we thought it’d be fun to share a slide show we put together of some of our favourite engagement pictures from 2009…. Of course we couldn’t fit in all our couples, but needless to say there were hundreds of other shots we would have loved to put in there.

Stay tuned to the blog for more fun winter weddings and try to stay warm out there!!!

Which is your favourite pics from the slideshow? (just reference the timestamp)

Oh my goodness, this is an exciting post!!

One on the happiest days of my life has got to be the day my sister Tricia came by the house to tell me the incredible news!!! She had just been back from being on safari and mountain climbing in Africa with her boyfriend Kris. They had been on an amazing GAP adventure and reached the summit of Mt. Kilimanjaro together. Once they reached the top, they felt an amazing rush, like they had truly experienced something epic together. Climbing a mountain like that is no small feat but that wasn’t where the monumental moments would end. At 6am as the sun was rising over the mountain and the morning fog was softly rolling out, Kris got down on one knee and asked Tricia if she would be his forever. Isn’t that the best engagement story ever!!(Check out the full story here!!)

When we heard the news we knew there was one thing that they could quickly cross of their wedding to-do list… The hunt for a wedding photographer Of course, I was a little disappointed when she told me I had to leave my camera at home when she asked me to be her Maid of Honour, but I’m so excited she chose ME for the job! Dave is pumped to be covering the beautiful event this summer, no doubt he’ll do something amazing for them!

We weren’t sure when or where we’d do their engagement shoot, but we were super-excited to have this unseasonal warmer weather! We could take advantage of some great outdoor locations around Toronto.

I just LOVE the way this soft texture in the plants looks with Tricia’s hair. Cool huh?!

I thought this idea was super-cute… Kris and Tricia are having a peacock themed wedding and it was nice to tie in these cute peacock accessory earrings for their engagement shoot.

These two are SO cute together! They truly are perfect for each other. I also love the long grass in this shot, It’s amazing the photography locations you can find in Toronto if you just walk around a bit!

As the sun went down and the city lights came up, we took a walk down by the water front. There is one thing for sure, I love shots like these and I LOVE living in Toronto!

We set up a bit of lighting and got these gorgeous shots of the Kris and Tricia with the sky line. Doesn’t Kris look charming??

We hopped in the car on our engagement shoot adventure and decided a few cute shots in front of the R.O.M would be sweet. We love the geometric design, such a cool building!

As dusk turned to darkness, we had to find new lighting sources, I love finding cool reflections… night shooting is sooo dramatic and so much fun!!

Just a hop, skip and a jump away was Toronto’s famous Yorkville! We took a break and went for an amazing dinner then picked up again for a few shots afterward.

Haha, I love this shot as we were setting up, too funny! Ok, give me Blue Steel…Work it…

Can you believe these shots were not taken in a studio! Wow… these two look gorgeous! Thanks so much guys, this shoot was soo much fun, can’t wait till the wedding!!
