Family Portrait Session with the Browns

It is not very often that two of your favourite teachers get married - but that is what happened with the Browns! 

Erin and Doug taught me in my high school days back in Toronto. Erin was my home room teacher and also taught World Religions, and Doug was my Philosophy teacher. They both took such creative and personalised approaches in their teaching that I can actually still remember a lot of their lessons today (almost eight years later).

These two tied the knot about seven years ago now and have since welcomed two new additions to their family; Mackenzie and Madison, 4 and 1 years old. It was so nice to catch up with my old teachers and meet their beautiful little ones. Working with kids was both hilarious and challenging as they aren't the best at sitting still -  so I opted for more candid style shots of them on the move. 

I hope you enjoy the shots, get in touch to book your Spring family photo session!

Engagement Shoot with M & M

This past weekend, I had the chance to do a couples session with my cousin and his lovely fiance (and their adorable little highly energetic fluffball, Nimbus).

Admittedly, I was a little bit nervous going in - it was the first time I was offering my photography services professionally and I was feeling the pressure. I was surprised when I started shooting how quickly I fell back into the groove, and how much I still loved doing it. It was so much fun experimenting with poses, angles, and ideas with these two. We had a wonderful 2 hour session in their house and outside in the wooded areas surrounding it. Lots of interesting backdrops to play around with, and gorgeous natural light pouring in from all angles.

These two were naturals in front of the camera, which made my job a bit too easy! It was a great session, and I can't wait for these two to tie the knot this summer. 

Here are some of my favorite shots from the day. I hope you like them!
