I think it was sometime last year that my friend (and fellow Caper) Scott McIntyre designed a fine art, black and white wedding album for his clients. I just thought, “wow thats incredible”. Its got the be the right wedding in the right place with the right look to pull that kind of album off […]
I was running late for Julie + Aaron’s engagement session and Jessica was running a little behind as well. So I sent Julie an email and said I’ll be 30 minutes late. See you at 7.30. As we roll into this incredible lakeside cottage on Queensland beach Julie says, from behind a glass of wine, […]
Do you own a wedding dress? Is it somewhere wrapped up in a box under a bed? Have you ever wanted to voice your opinion about Trashing the Dress? Check out the Trash It or Treasure It discussion live online at Smart Boutique tonight at 9pm Atlantic time. Here’s a few images and the PEI […]
I first met Michelle at a wedding (Sarah + Matthew Pickup) about 2 years ago. A group of people were outside of the reception hall ‘refreshing drinks’ and I happened to grab a photo of her that remains one of my favorites to this day. It was just a candid shot but it totally summed […]
letting them go…the end of a wedding and boudoir journey
I was lucky enough to spend a fair bit of time with Kim + Keegan when they booked me to shoot their wedding. They were willing to be guinea pigs for anything I wanted to do with them for a studio engagement shoot. So with both of them having some military background we decided on […]
at the risk of contradicting myself…I really like it when couples will say, “we’re up for anywhere you want to take us”. I had been driving passed this underpass for months, every time pointing to whoever was in the car with me that I really wanted to shoot there. so we shot there with Lyndsey […]
Secrets. I’m the worst person in the world to have to keep a secret yet I find myself in all kinds of situations where everything photo related is a secret. Leslie’s engagement shoot was a surprise for Chris and it has been one of the hardest to keep so far simply because I really wanted […]
I don’t know where to begin. Wedding season 2010 started last Saturday with Kate + BJs Shore Club wedding in Hubbards and I’ll tell you what…they set the bar for the next 34 weddings that follow this year. It was perfect. All of it. The people, the venue, the music, the Crazy Booth…and of course […]
These days I tell Lola not to touch my camera gear but she just can’t resist the urge to reach out and drop a finger on it and sooner or later have it flying through the air. Sometimes we just do really stupid things and we can’t help it. This morning I got an email […]
I knew from the second these guys got out of the car that it was going to be a fun shoot. They had me with their new Converse Chucks and Amanda’s incredible Vicky Mina makeup artistry. It had the potential to be huge but we got delayed by a few things…like Mall Cops, wrong turns […]
Its the people that make weddings spectacular. Not the location, not the decorations or the food. Sure, it all adds to it but when you’re surrounded by 100 people who are madly in love with the bride and groom and everyone just wants to have a good time, those are the weddings you remember. Rhonda […]
Something very different. Maternity & Boudoir
Different only in the fact that I’ve never shot outdoor nude maternity before. The same in that its how I love to shoot…no flash or fancy photoshop tricks. Just good ole fashioned sun and shadows. I don’t often say this but I’m a big fan of these images.
there must be something in the air these days that is making people awesome. i’ve been shooting with a slew of amazing clients that have grand ideas for photo shoots and get totally involved in the whole shoot. As a husband I’m not fully understanding why you need to buy new clothes for a photo […]
I love it when clients say ‘we want to do something different’. It leaves the door open to so many possibilities. Different from what? The more everything tries to be different the more it all ends up being the same. So I try to grab on the the obvious things that are different. Meg + […]
This shoot was supposed to take place in a nice quite area of a park but Ewelina called and said she was bringing a few outfits and a couple of heart shaped balloons. Its a lot of fun when couples are totally into the shoot and want to participate on the ideas and locations. Ewelina […]
Allie + Ryan are not planning a wedding. Nor are they engaged. They’re just two (self proclaimed) cheesy love birds who wanted to have some photos together. We met up in the middle of a field and just watching them walk toward us as we met, Jessica and I could tell they were just simply […]
Some things are worth waiting for. This shoot with Fallon was one of them. After many, many months of planning, plotting, rearranging and re-planning we finally hit the studio for a boudoir shoot. The plan: a fur coat shoot. Silver fox fur to be exact. Makeup Artist: Vicky Mina (thanks Vicky!) Hair: Cara MacInnis (thanks […]
