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. :)

It's been a while since my last maternity photo shoot here and I definitely needed to post this one. I absolutely loved working at this new location suggested by Faith and Alex.

I know many clients prefer to go to places I've been before (Edward Gardens, Brickworks, High Park and Distillery District are the most popular ones), but honestly I love going to new locations. This is Fairy Lake park in Newmarket - gosh! What a gorgeous park!! Cannot believe I didn't hear about that place till now.

The day was great - light was amazing and I had a great time working with Faith & Alex. Let me share some of my favorites with you! Congrats, Faith and Alex, can't wait to photograph your newest addition to the family! :)

I know every time I'm shooting a wedding here in Whitby I start my blog post with the same line, however, I can't help it: I love working 10 minutes away from home. :)

You might remember Laura and Ray from a Fall e-session I posted not too long ago (click here!). They celebrated their wedding just last month! Ceremony was held at the beautiful Trafalgar Castle School followed by a reception by the lake. We were really lucky to get a sunny weekend during these rainy days. Honestly could not wait to have some time during these busy summer days to post this.

Congrats, Laura and Ray! Wishing you a lifetime of happiness. ♥

It's been raining a lot this summer - actually, on the day of this photo shoot it was thunder storming in Toronto and I was about to call Lucas & Luiza's parents to reschedule the photoshoot. To my surprise, they said it was sunny over there and I could not believe how the day was so nice, just 30 minutes away from downtown Toronto!

As always, I loved working with Luiza and meeting her new baby brother, Lucas. It was my first time working at Coronation Park, in Oakville. I loved loved these images and could not wait to share a few of my favorites with you.

Posting a wedding here at the blog means spending at least a good 3 hours of my day: deciding which photos will go here, resizing all of them, uploading everything to the blog, putting everything together making sure it tells a story, going through everything once again and deleting some so it's not a super long post.

During summer spending 3 hours doing that while I need to edited photo sessions that are happening right now is tough. However this was my first time shooting at the beautiful Doctor's House and I could not skip N. and H.'s wedding from here.

It's really hard to not make the post super long because there are so many images I love and wanted to share with you and it honestly breaks my heart to not post everything I could. Even my web hosting service already warned me I post to many photos on my front page and it might make my site slower. LOL.

Anyways, this is N. and H.'s wedding from last May. You can also view their e-session here. Congrats N. and H., best wishes always! ♥

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. ♥

As I promised on my last post, I'm finally posting a family photo shoot after having so many couples featured in here.

One of the reasons I've been skipping families is that they all want to go to the same location and I feel like you've seen enough Edward Gardens around here. LOL

The question that I get the most when booking families is where to go, followed by what to wear. So I always send a what to wear guide with some tips and list of popular locations among families. Even though the list has over 50 locations, I can say that 95% of my families go with Edward Gardens. I can't blame them, place is beautiful and the kids do enjoy the scenery over there.

Reality is it doesn't really matter where you go! And this shoot is a great example of that. We were actually going to have the photo session at Edward Gardens but forecast was for rain. Rescheduling was not an option in their case and we decided to have the shoot indoors. Rain was on and off and we were able to go the backyard - and look what we've got! I LOVE these photos. In the end, it is really about bonding, playing and having fun - not the location.

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

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!
