Peggy and Ross’s wedding at Our Lady of Perpetual Help was a beautifully traditional celebration to begin their marriage. But Peggy and Ross also made their wedding their own with sweet moments, personal details, and striking architecture!

With an engagement session at Casa Loma–inspired by Kate and William–, Peggy and Ross are a couple who loves elegant but bold moments (something I love as well!). We were absolutely on the same page when we talked about having portraits taken outside their church. Peggy’s details began with a classically-neutral palette. Her cathedral veil and delicately-detailed dress set an elegant scene for Peggy’s blue shoes and red rose bouquet. What I also love is when grooms pay as much attention to their details! Ross’ gold and silver airplane cufflinks have become one of my absolute favourite details of all time.

Peggy and Ross are a couple who loves elegant but bold moments.

After their ceremony and a relaxed lunch of McDonald’s, we headed out for portraits at the Alexander Muir Gardens. Although there were a few other wedding parties taking portraits at the main architecture, we found secluded areas to begin Peggy and Ross’ portraits. Vine-covered stone walls, hedge gardens, and perfect lawns were the perfect romantic backdrop to document such comfortable love! Peggy and Ross’s patience was eventually rewarded and when the other wedding parties left, we had the main staircase all to ourselves!

The wedding day wrapped up with a casual tea ceremony and reception at Orient Bistro, where close family and friends celebrated over an 11-course Cantonese dinner.

Peggy and Ross, from the time that you shared you wanted a Kate and William-inspired engagement session, I knew your wedding day would be a joy to photograph, and I wasn’t disappointed! Thank you for trusting me with your big day.

Today’s post is a special treat with Alex and Matt’s crazy cool engagement session! When I first met Alex and Matt, it didn’t take long to know they were sweet, fun, and the absolute dream clients. So when they decided to move ahead with an engagement session, I knew we were in for an amazing time.

From an amazing inspiration Pinterest board, to renting an old Mercedes Benz, to including their dog, Alex and Matt knew what they wanted but also trusted the process. And it didn’t disappoint! Alex and Matt both have an eye for details, which I LOVE as a photographer! They really put in the thought and effort to make this session beautiful, artistic, and their own. I haven’t stopped obsessing over their Unionville session! We started off away from the crowds and got some amazing images in a park and with the rental car. We then walked back to the busier Main Street, joined up with Alex and Matt’s Frenchie, Baxter, and explored some of the local sites!

…the absolute dream clients.

Alex and Matt, thank you for trusting me with your engagement session. You were both so much fun, and your session will forever be an inspiration to me. I hope these photos are a great reminder for you of this short but sweet season of life! I know your wedding day will be a continuation of your engagement: an awesome, amazingly-fun, epic celebration! Congratulations!

Elissa and Geoff had their wedding at The Guild Inn Estate, and it was the epitome of a classic and elegant affair. Such a joy to photograph! Amanda from Open Sky Weddings planned and helped postpone their wedding multiple times before we were finally able to celebrate this summer. It was so worth the wait!

Elissa and her bridesmaids got ready at a gorgeous AirBnb in the Beaches and prepared for the day with simple yet elegant details. Elissa’s iconic bridal portraits will always be some of my favourites! After a traditional ceremony, the bride and groom and bridal party left for the Guild Inn Estate for more celebrating! Elissa and Geoff’s portraits at Guild Inn can only be described as epic. The beautiful light created such creamy skin tones and gorgeous halos.

Although Elissa and Geoff’s beagles, Jake and Oscar, couldn’t celebrate with them in person (like they did at their engagement), the party was brought by the drummers of Sooriana Group and guests danced long into the night. The evening truly was a night to remember and the first real wedding PARTY I’ve been to since the pandemic began!

Elissa and Geoff, your wedding will always be a particularly timeless and gorgeous one to me! Forever a favourite! You guys were so much fun, and I’m so glad you waited patiently to have the wedding of your dreams! I hope you love your images as much as I do, because I’m absolutely in love with all of them!

Kristine and Will’s wedding will forever be a favourite of mine! From their first inquiry message, they were fun, trusting, and kind, which is a wonderful setup for beautiful images! As we captured the day, every part was filled with meaning, shared with their closest friends and family, and very hot! But Kristine and Will were absolute troopers, and their images are classic and full of movement!

Ever since their engagement session, I knew Kristine and Will were a couple that loved to laugh! They constantly joked with each other, thoroughly enjoying the whole process. I also found out early on that they absolutely love their cats, Taro and Pudding. Getting pictures with them on their wedding day became an immediate—and adorable—priority!

…every part was filled with meaning…

For Kristine and Will’s first look, we went to the Toronto Carpet Factory, nestled in the heart of Liberty Village. The vine-covered masonry and elegant wrought-iron details were just too good to not include again later for additional portraits. Technically, Kristine and Will were already legally married, but decided to celebrate again with friends and family. Their ceremony and reception took place at Mildred’s Temple Kitchen, an eclectic restaurant with delicious food and an elegant atmosphere.

Kristine and Will, I don’t think I’ve ever had so much fun at a wedding! You are so wonderful and kind, and I have absolutely loved getting to know you both! Thank you for sharing your big day with me. I’m obsessing over your images and can’t wait to share the rest!

I love sessions that mean I get to see previous clients again! We met Nicole and Julian through Nicole’s sister Steph, when we photographed her maternity session back in 2020. I had such a lovely time with Steph and her husband Alec, so when Nicole and Julian reached out, I was so excited! One thing that makes Nicole and Julian such a unique couple is the absolute fun and joy they have around one another! Their engagement session in downtown Toronto was just a sneak peek, but seeing them together on their wedding day was such a treat. They laughed, they cried, and they looked at each other with all the warmth and affection one could have.

…where birds chirped and a cool breeze blew through the hosta flowers.

Nicole and Julian’s beautiful wedding day began at the Westin Harbour Hotel, where Nicole and her girls got ready. With a gorgeous view of Lake Ontario and the Toronto Islands, Nicole slipped into her sweetheart ballgown covered in layers of tulle and her crystal-encrusted Badgley Mischka heels. We then moved to another iconic Toronto location, Osgoode Hall, for Nicole and Julian’s first look and portraits. Because they decided on a first look, Nicole and Julian were able to spend the rest of the day together without having to be apart before the ceremony.

Their ceremony took place in the beautiful garden at Fantasy Farms, where birds chirped and a cool breeze blew through the hosta flowers. With personalized vows and without a dry eye, Nicole and Julian were married.

Nicole and Julian, thank you for trusting me with your beautiful day! Your wedding day was so meaningful, intentional, and focused on what’s most important: the friends and family you were celebrating with. I hope these images help you relive it many times in the years to come. Congratulations!

Tala and Ali’s family wedding session at The Bluffs was a beach-lover’s absolute dream to photograph! A gorgeous sunset made the sand glow as Tala and Ali commemorated their marriage with photos that they can enjoy for decades to come.

Tala and Ali got married the day after their session. Since they were unable to have a photographer document their vows or celebration, they wanted a separate session to ensure they would still have some family portraits. So, Tala reached out to me to see if we could have a mid-week family session at the beach! Portraits on the white sand of Scarborough Bluffs and family photos to memorialize all of Tala’s and Ali’s relationships were the perfect ways to officially welcome this new season in their relationship!

I was even more excited to capture these sweet moments when Tala shared that she also loves detail photos! We made sure to set aside some time to capture their wedding invitation and some of their gorgeous details. The stars of the show were Tala’s Jimmy Choos, some of my favourites shoes I’ve ever photographed! Tala came prepared with additional styling details that helped tie all the details together. To top things off, we scheduled some time for a short portrait session of Tala and Ali by themselves!

Tala and Ali, thank you so much entrusting me with your wedding portrait session! It was so beautiful to see how you value and care for your families. It was wonderful getting to meet them all too! I’m in love with your images, and I hope these photos serve your relationship as you continue growing and deepening in your love for each other. Congratulations!

Elissa and Geoff had their Princess Point engagement on one of the most beautiful Sunday mornings we’ve had all year!

With their original wedding date set for 2020, they were one of many couples who had to postpone. They will finally celebrate later this year at Guild Inn Estate! In the meantime, we walked around Princess Point to capture images of their sweet relationship. With the sun on their faces and the trees in their full summer foliage, they were able to enjoy a quiet and peaceful walk with their adorable pups, Jake and Oscar.

Elissa and Geoff met when Geoff was visiting his brother at Western University. Geoff had recently adopted his dog, Jake, and Elissa came by to say hello. It was sweet to see them walking Jake and his new his pandemic-puppy friend Oscar! And if you LOVE Elissa’s gorgeous outfit, you may enjoy learning that her sister–a stylist!–put together the look! She also joined us for the session and ultimately helped to make every image even more beautiful and put together. If you’re considering bringing a stylist to your session, you won’t regret it!

Elissa and Geoff, after years of waiting to get married, you must be so excited to finally celebrate with friends and family! I hope these images will always be a sweet memory as you look back on this (extended) season of engagement!

Peggy and Ross had their engagement session at a bucket-list location of mine: Casa Loma!

Casa Loma is one of those special places that has both variety and wonderful continuity in all its photo locations! From a back garden and austere entryway, to an indoor conservatory and library, the castle is reminiscent of Clue! (But minus a murder and plus a whole lot of romance!) Inspired by Kate and William’s engagement, finding a beautiful location with an elegant and regal vibe was important to Peggy and Ross. As a fun bonus, Casa Loma was hosting the Princess Diana Exhibition! With a 1957 Rolls Royce welcoming guests at the entrance, Casa Loma was the location to celebrate a timeless engagement!

A deepening affection grew between Peggy and Ross…

Peggy and Ross met near the beginning of the pandemic, and many of their initial dates consisted of walks outdoors. Since then, they have been able to express their more classic taste. With dates to the zoo, the Art Gallery of Ontario, and the Toronto Symphony Orchestra, Peggy and Ross are a timeless couple! A deepening affection grew between them until health scares made them realize how deep their love for each other ran. On Christmas Day 2021, Ross proposed to Peggy, and Peggy said yes.

Peggy and Ross, thank you for trusting me with your engagement session photos! I loved walking around, learning about our shared love of chicken nuggets, navigating around tourists for the perfect shot, and getting to know you both better. I can’t wait to capture more images of the special moments in your relationship on your wedding day! Until then, I hope your engagement photos bring a lot of joy to you both (as they have for me)!

P.S. Casa Loma has some incredible sights of Toronto from its many towers! But even on the ground, there are some pretty special views! Try to find one below!

Kristine and Will’s Guelph Arboretum engagement session was the perfect way to welcome spring! With golden light, cherry blossoms, and conversations about our mutual love of food, cats, and romantic comedies, our evening together was full of laughter and–of course–gorgeous photos!

When I first met Kristine and Will, we hit it off right away. I learned that, like me, they enjoy staying at home, eating snacks, and watching shows. During their engagement session, we walked around the Arboretum getting to know each other and swapping stories. Referring to themselves as an old married couple, Kristine and Will joked with each other our entire time together. They met in 10th grade, and their similar sense of humour initially drew them to each other. When Will was studying in Guelph and Kristine in Toronto, their relationship deepened and they referred to that long-distance season as the “good ol’ msn days”.

Will timed his proposal to match Chandler’s

Will proposed on Valentine’s day. By planning a relaxed night with comfort foods and a Friends marathon, he ensured Kristine didn’t suspect anything. Knowing that Kristine liked Monica and Chandler as a couple, Will timed his proposal to match Chandler’s. In his own words, “when the proposal scene was about to start, I excused myself to the washroom where I had my suit and tie prepared, along with the engagement ring. When I came out, Chandler was starting to get down on one knee, and I paused it right there, and I got down on one knee and asked her to marry me.” To state the obvious, Kristine said yes!

Kristine and Will, I absolutely can’t wait for your wedding day. Thank you for trusting me with capturing your relationship! Your engagement session was so much fun and I know we’ll have a blast again in August. I hope I can meet your cats, get in on some new jokes, and blow you away with more gorgeous photos of the two of you together.

Lovisa and Jack had a gorgeous morning engagement session at R.C. Harris and with Canadian weather, it definitely qualified as an adventure! This sweet couple was willing to brave the sharp lake-side wind in order to get this location all to themselves, and it was so worth it! Add in an adorable puppy and the creamiest sunrise and we’ve got ourselves a very special session!

These two love all the small daily moments, where most of life actually happens

Lovisa and Jack met in the gym at McMaster University, where they were both training in Olympic weightlifting. Through many 2-4 hour training sessions, they really got to know each other. Lovisa was initially drawn to Jack’s discipline, resilience, wisdom, and especially his patience! Jack waited about four years for Lovisa to figure out that he was the one!

These two love all the the small daily moments, which is where most of life actually happens! When they first started going out, Lovisa and Jack hardly went on official dates because they just loved doing everyday tasks together. They love to camp, hike, walk their dog Missy (take a peek at some of her adorable antics below!), and enjoy some of Jack’s own coffee that he roasts, grounds, and brews himself. Lovisa even remembers the moment she “knew”: that time Jack insistently worked to fix her white-out tape.

Lovisa and Jack, congratulations on your engagement and thank you for inviting me to be a part of your story! Getting to learn about you guys individually and as a couple has been so fun! I’ve been so encouraged to to see all the ways you guys love each other in so many small every-day ways!

Love this session? Check out some of our past engagements at R.C. Harris!
