This past August I worked all weekends and lots of weekdays, so I’ve been really busy! It’s hard to keep this blog updated, however, yesterday was my daughter’s first day at JK and that means more working time for me, so hopefully I’ll come here more often. :)

This photo shoot is super fresh and I needed to post this right now – UofT is probably in my top 3 favorite places to work and I just LOVED these photos!! I worked with Ron back in 2012 when he was part of a wedding party. I was so happy that he still remembered me and that he and his fiancée liked my work.

Kaitlin was pretty shy at the beginning of the shoot, but by the end of it they were pros! I just can’t wait to shoot their wedding next year!

Let me share some of my favorites with you. :)

Not so long ago I posted a photo shoot at this same place, however I could not skip posting this e-session because I simply adore this location (and also because this couple is super cute!!). I love Scarborough Bluffs so much that it’s been even the location for my own family photo shoot a couple of years ago.

This was Leigh’s and Simon’s engagament session. We had to reschedule this shoot a couple of times but it was definitely worth it. Look at the glorious light we got on that day! Perfect, perfect lighting. I had a great time working with them and I just can’t wait for their wedding next month.

Let me share some of favorites with you. :)

Just this past June I went out to work 15 times. 15 days out working is a lot, especially because I still need to edited everything, have meetings, design albums, answer emails, write emails, answer phone calls, etc.

I won’t lie: during this time of the year I’m a bit exhausted and the blog is not a priority at all, however I could not skip this photo shoot for many reasons: 1. this was the first time I shot in Owen Sound and this city is truly amazing! 2. I absolutely adored working with this couple – they were super sweet and a lot of fun 3. This photo you see above got A LOT of Facebook likes in a single day so I couldn’t leave it out of my website.

Let me share a few of my favorites from that afternoon with you. We actually started at the beautiful Morland Place (can’t wait to have the opportunity to shoot a wedding over there!), then we headed to Indian Falls.

I can’t really write much because I do have a lot of clients waiting to view their photos (and I’m really sorry I’m not doing sneak peeks for all photo shoots during this summer), but I want to thank Angela and Jevon for the amazing afternoon! Thank you guys so much for taking me to all these gorgeous locations and I really can’t wait to shoot your wedding at Lora Bay next year. :)

May and June have been incredibly busy. Just last week I had Kristine and Télcio’s photoshoot (exactly a week ago!), a Bat Mitzvah service the next day, a wedding on Saturday and a Bat Mitzvah party on Sunday! The other days? Using to edit all the photo shoots and weddings from two, three weeks before. My friends tell me they wish they could “only work on weekends”, but I’m pretty sure I work more than most of them. ;)

Weather hasn’t been that great so we’re also having lots of rescheduling, but I was so glad I was able to work with Kristine and Télcio last Wednesday. I’m completely in love with this photo session – I could literally post all photos from this shoot.

Kristine and Télcio are from Brazil and were actually in their honeymoon when these photos were taken. A friend of theirs had shot a maternity photo shoot with me and told them about my work. They only had one week left here in Canada, I didn’t have that many days available, it was raining almost every single day, but thankfully weather decided to cooperate on one of the few days we were both available.

The sunshine last Wednesday was just gorgeous!! Kristine decided to wear the wedding dress that belonged to her mom and honestly, that made the photos even more special! Let me share some of my favorites with you. :)

Kristine and Télcio, congrats on your wedding and thanks so much for letting me capture such a special moment in your lives. ♥

I already know I will have a great time at Christine’s and Paul’s wedding next year. It was really fun shooting these two and that’s how engagement sessions should be! Sometimes couples take themselves too seriously, but the secret to a great e-shoot is laughter – so thank you, Paul. :)

Paul is also responsible for me finally ordering USB Flash Drives for wedding clients. LOL I’ve been studying getting those during the past year and I’d always forget about it. But during our meeting, Paul made fun of me still giving DVDs to people and I thought that maybe it was time to upgrade my media. Hopefully by next year all photo shoots will be getting USB Flash Drives instead of DVDs – honestly I think my DVDs are super cute, but I know that their end is near.

I really really shouldn’t be using my time to blog since I have so many photos shoots lined up to be edited, but I needed to post this (I promise my next blog post will be a family photo shoot, I promise!!!). Let me share some of my favorites with you! :)

I live about ten, fifteen minutes away from Parkwood Estate and always heard great things about that location, however I’ve never had the chance to check it out until last year when I shot Amy and Matt’s wedding (click here to view it). To my surprise, another couple decided to use the same spot for their engagement session this past May and I was super excited to work there once again, without all the rush of a wedding day.

And what can I say about these two? This is one of the sweetest couples I’ve ever met! They have an amazing life story and I’m so lucky to have had our paths crossed. I already shot their wedding a couple of weeks ago at the Doctor’s House and had, once again, an amazing time. I’ll truly miss them! ♥

Let me share some of the greatest moments from the engagement session with you. Definitely, my favorite one is when H. surprised N. with an engagement ring!! He also brought her family to share this special day with them and I loved all the reactions from N. when seeing all her family there, however I decided to keep those photos private. Enjoy!

I know I always promise I’ll keep this blog updated, but I’ve come to the conclusion that I won’t be able to do that for a while – at least while I’m working every single weekend and have a 4 year daughter wanting to enjoy the warm weather outside. So for now, my aim is to get all my clients photo sessions ready on time and have at least one blog post per month – this engagement shoot was the chosen one for this May! I honestly could not leave this super-cute-very-good-looking couple out of my blog. :)

This is Christie and Dan’s engagement session from this past weekend. We started at a park close to their cottage and finished the shoot with some great sunshine by the lake. My favorite part from the shoot is actually where they first met: the tennis court! ♥

This shoot is from yesterday – yes! Yesterday. I haven’t even finished editing all of Anna’s and Ashwin’s engagement session, but since they are getting married this weekend, I edited a few of the photos so they have time to use them.

I’ll keep this short since this will be a busy busy week for me – besides working on their engagement photos, just this weekend I have their wedding, a family photo session and a birthday party to shoot. Think I will rest on Monday? I’ve got another shoot and a meeting. Yeap, the year has definitely started. Everytime I get to a photo shoot I can’t help but think how lucky I am do this for a living. :)

It was STILL freezing yesterday, but Anna and Ashwin were brave enough to handle the cold temperatures. I’m honestly in love with these so I decided to take a break from the editing to post a few of my favorites!

[update 03/29] p.s.: go check it out their wedding photo taken yesterday: http://www.facebook.com/YukiNodaPhotography. :)

This was my second photo shoot of 2015 – even though I have lots of photoshoots from last year I have yet to post, I needed to publish this right away because of the response I got from these few photos I posted on my FB page.

I finished editing their images really late at night sometime last January and e-mail Adrienne saying her photos are ready. I decide to post a few on my FB page before going to bed. 7am the next day, my daughter wakes up, I give her breakfast and decide to check my computer. I had so many private messages from my friends saying they loved the photos I just posted and how good-looking the couple were (honestly, that never happens – my friends are really used to me spamming them with my work, so I was surprised lol). Then, I check the photo on FB and it already has over 20 likes – and it’s 7am in the morning!

So yeah, I HAD to post this right away. These are some of my favorites from the day! :)

How I love working close to home! Not only because I don’t have to be stuck in traffic, but also because I just love Whitby. This place is so beautiful I don’t think I’ll ever get tired of having shoots here.

This is Laura’s and Ray’s engagement session. Besides the fact these two are super photogenic, they have an amazing chemistry that definitely shows in pictures. So it’s pretty obvious that I just can’t wait for their wedding day next Summer!

On top of having lots of September+October wedding photos to edit, these past few days have been super busy with all these families having Fall shoots (can’t blame them, Fall looks good), so I’ll go back to editing now. I just had to stop for a bit to share this gorgeous e-shoot. :)
