Wedding of Courtney & Russ

Courtney and Russ got married in sunny Mexico in June however Courtney's Mom, Joyce, had asked me in January if I could shoot the post-nuptual reception and I said yes without hesitation!  I first got to know this amazing family by shooting the wedding of Joyce's other daughter, Jennifer, 3 years ago and the relationship has continued over the past few years.  Spending the afternoon with Courtney and Russ and the entire family brought back great memories from Jen and Ryan's wedding but what I found was that I was having almost as much fun as they were!  What a great time we had laughing and capturing some great moments.  

I enjoyed being a part of another Jackson family celebration.  Here are a few of my favorite shots from the day. Enjoy!

Gage

Emily and Christian invited me back to take a few pictures of their expanded family with their latest addition; Gage.  Every bit as cute as his older brother Colton, whom I have had the priviliage of photographing a few other times, Gage was a great little model.  Giggles, gurgles, hugs and kisses are a photograhers dream and all were plentiful when I was with Emily, Christian and their boys.  Here are a few of my favorite shots.  Enjoy!

Baby Leah

Watching a couple evolve is an amazing adventure for a photographer.  I first met Carolyn and Ryan a few years ago when I was asked to shoot their wedding.  Through the engagement shoot and wedding day experience I got to know them and their fun loving attitudes.  And now they have added little Leah to the mix and the couple is now a threesome and couldn't be any cuter!  I spent the morning at their home and caught some shots of Leah in a variety of outfits and emotions.  It is great to see Carolyn and Ryan go from being a wonderfully close and happy couple to proud joyful parents.  Here are a few of my favorites from my time with them.  Enjoy!

Engagement Session with Matt & Laura

I had a fun Sunday morning this past weekend when I met up with Matt and Laura on the property surrounding their apartment.  It reminded me of a resort with all kinds of trees, bridges and waterfalls.  Great spots for pictures!  Matt and Laura are a great couple and a lot of fun to work with, and with Laura`s infectious laugh the shoot was fun and full of smiles.  I can`t wait for the wedding in October, Laura is going to be a beautiful bride and Matt`s a pretty handsome man himself.

Thanks for a great morning.

E Session with Kym & Justin

I have known Kym for almost 6 years and see her almost everyday so when she asked if I would photograph her wedding I was excited and very nervous as well.  Kym and Justin are a great couple.  Justin, a volunteer fire fighter in Holland Landing, is very easy going and relaxed.  Kym has very specific ideas of what she wants - and why shouldn't she?  She's the soon-to-be bride! Kym wanted to have some photos at sunset so we decided to journey to Wasaga Beach.  We made our way into Wasaga Beach and the town  of Tiny and Balm Beach where it had a little bit of everything; rocks, beach and most importantly a nice sunset.  It was a lot of fun! I hope you like a few of my favorite pictures of this perfect couple.

Thanks Kym and Justin for a great time, David

The Park w Lesley, Peter and Sydney

It was great seeing Lesley, Peter and Sydney on Fathers day.  We haven't seen each other since the wedding day. We met up in a small park in Whitby with the goal of taking some pictures of the family.  Sydney made it a lot of fun and challenging.  She was like Dora the Explorer, checking out every bit of the park and somethings more then once, just to make sure she didn't miss anything the first time out.   Sydney is a little cutie.  By the end of our time in the park she was walking with Dad and stopped, looked back at me and waited for me to catch up.  Then took my hand and walked with me, Tooooooo Cute.  Happy 2nd Birthday this weekend Sydney.  I hope you have a great party.

Cheers, David

Engagement Session with Chris, Joanne and MacKenzie

I met up with Chris and his fiance Joanne and her daughter MacKenzie for some photos at Rosetta McLain Gardens in Scarborough.  We had a lot of fun taking shots that late morning do jumping in and out of shelter as the rain came and went.  I thought the photo shoot would be the highlight of the day but I was wrong.  I learned something new this day, it was Step Fathers day for this soon to be family :)  The family let me know they went out for breakfast before meeting and Chris receiving gifts from MacKenzie.  Welcome to fatherhood Chris.  I posted a few of my favs, hope you like them and you can get a good sense of how much fun we had, and how beautiful the three of them are together.  I can't wait for the wedding in September.

Thanks again for a great time

The Wedding of Rachelle & Derek

 Although the forecast called for overcast skies and rain on Saturday the opposite seemed to happen and a beautiful wedding day came together for Rachelle & Derek.  I first met with Rachelle, her parents and her bridesmaids at the hotel.  Rachelle was the picture of contained excitement.  Looking beautiful in a layered gown Rachelle was easy going and open to try anything.  It made for a great start and I knew the day would only get better.  

Leaving the hotel I headed to St. Leo The Great Roman Catholic Church in Brooklin for the ceremony and then onto Royal Ashburn for the reception.  Pictures with the friends and family ran smoothly and the kids in the bridal party were full of energy which was almost contagious!  Spending some time alone with Rachelle & Derek in the gardens proved to offer great opportunities as the newlyweds were able to capture a few quiet moments together.  

I had a fantastic day with Rachelle, Derek, their friends and family.  From start to finish everything went smoothly and I had fun being a part of their day.

Thanks again for having me share your most beautiful day :)

A Day At The Lake With Aydan

I was excited to see Blair, Stephanie and Aydan again.  I had the pleasure of taking family pictures in January 2009 and wow!  Has Aydan grown!  He is the cutest little man and so full of energy.  I was hanging out with the family while they played at the Lakefront in Whitby; a perfect setting for a little boy to throw rocks into the water and pick up sticks to chase his mom down the beach.  It was a lot of fun just watching Aydan, being a little boy, as his parents watched on, all discovering things for the first time.

Here are a few of my favorites from the day.
