Cate & Sean's Winter Wedding

On Dec. 20th Cate and Sean were married at the Old Mill in Toronto. It was a beautiful winter wedding - lots of snow and very cold. Cate, her Mom Patricia, and the girls made me feel very comfortable in the beautiful suite they had for the big day, where I was able to capture some candid shots before the ceremony. I met some great family members and friends and a fun DJ who is also a wicked magician named Arthur -owner of Maestro Entertainment Services (secan@sympatico.ca).

Thank Cate & Sean

The Groenevelds

Sunday was a fun day, meeting Steve and Melanie's youngest boy Sam and his 3 bigger brothers Braden, Logan and Reid. I don't know how Steve and Mel do it, but they are doing an amazing job. The boys were on there best behaviour, we took a bunch of group shots, individual shots and I got to take pictures while the boys played, which is always a fun way to capture true expressions.

Thanks for having me by the house :)

Lesley & Peter's Engagement

The engagement photo shoot turned out to be a bit colder then we expected. Peter & Leslie are getting married on Sept 19, 2009 at 4 Season Golf and Country Club in Claremont. We went down to Hayden Shores in Whibty to take some pictures by the lake. It was fun laughing with Peter and Leslie, and I think it came across in our photos.

Kids

When I went to take photos of Khol we all went up as a family to meet Easton's little brother. My kids, Beckham and Riley, wanted to takes some pictures with Easton. And Beckham really wanted to take a picture with baby Khol. I must admit the boy is great with babies and little kids in general- sure makes a dad proud. So Beckham asked Auntie Katie if he could hold Khol and have his pictures taken.

Kohl McCafferty

Last week I got to meet Khol McCafferty- the new arrival for parents Marty and Katie, and big brother Easton. Katie asked me to come over with hopes of capturing some of the same type of images we did for Easton when he was the same age. So we did some of the same photos we took with Easton, and some new ones including pictures of Easton with his little brother Kohl. Here are a couple of pictures of Kohl and his big brother Easton.

The Wedding of Marie and Philip Abbot

Saturday was the big day for Philip and Marie. I arrived at Marie's house for some photos and she was as calm and happy as could be. The weather was beautiful for a nice fall wedding. Once again I met some wonderful people, some beautiful families who dance all night to a great DJ named Ivan. Witnessed some first at a wedding with some customs such as breaking the bread, the pig dance and many other great Greek traditions. Here's a couple of my favorites of the happy bride and groom.

Engagement Photo's with Marie & Philip

Marie, Philip and I went out for a walk around Whitby to take some photos when we happen to come across a wedding at Rotary Park in the Gazebo, who knew you could get married in the park? Here are a couple of pics from our day.

Tanya's Angels

I love my job. I have the great opportunity to meet wonderful people. I first met Tanya at one of the first weddings I shot for my friends; Jenn Smith and Jim Wraight. Shortly after Tanya asked if I would be interested in photographing her wedding to Dave Ayres. We have since become good friends, and I have had the joy of photographing Tanya, Dave and the boys Ethan and Johnny. So when Tanya asked me if I was interested in taking some head shots for her home based business- I jumped at the opportunity. As a guy I would say she cuts hair, but she does so much more than just cut hair. She has a great talent with womens hair, and even cosmetics as you can see in the pictures. So if you live in the Durham area or don't mind driving out to Courtice let me know.

Thanks to Kerri, Megan and Elaina for being great models.

The Wedding of Gillian Kirby and Dave Kip

Its always a great pleasure to be the photographer at a friends wedding. When Jill and Dave asked me to be the photographer I was excited. You couldn't find two people more on the same page, and a lot of fun too. When you are with them someone is always laughing :) Here are just a couple of photos from the day.

The Wedding of Kelly & Pat McReelis

First off thank you Mother Nature, Rain Gods or whoever was responsible for having the rain stop shortly after I arrived at Kelly's mom & dad house for our photos of the bride. Kelly was in great spirits, and I can't say enough how cute her grandparents are. The wedding was a great day going on without a hitch. The service was at Trafalgar Castle with young and old there to celebrate the wedding of Kelly & Pat. Thanks again for letting me enjoy this beautiful day with you. 8 -)
