Great pictures, The different styles are really unique and quite refreshing from the typical Poses. Candid moments are truly genuine and offer a great reflection of the people being pictured. Good work

Talia + Nathan Engaged!

Hey Gang, Talia found out about me through Sabrina who was a guess at Kerri & Rob’s wedding a few years back. It’s amazing how time just flies. During our initial meeting we talked about their love of sports and renovation of their new place, we pretty much talked about everything except the wedding! *lol*….

I cant believe she’s already 7

Hey Gang, Yesterday was Kennedy’s birthday the big 7. I asked her the day before what she wanted and she told me “fancy” chapstick then her brother called her into the other room, she comes back saying she wants a X-box 360! *LOL*. One of our many passions Kennedy and I share is our love…

Married!! Aggie + Kevin at London Museum in London, Ontario

Hey Gang, Thanks for coming back! You probably remember this amazing couple from their cool E-Session! Like I said I was so flattered when these two Art buffs asked me to document their wedding, nothing more cooler and humbling than having another artist admire your work. Aggie and Kevin insisted that they do a Reveal…
