Magical Unicorn Photo Sessions - Cobourg Ontario

9/28/2022

We love to create memories while having fun. And these Unicorn Photo Sessions were just perfect for that. The kids all came with beautiful dresses and we provided the flower crowns. The Horse, Anna, a true Unicorn, was as always the best and the star of the day. She is so gentle and loving. She loves seeing the children and having them pet and interact with her. And she loves a carrot or apple or two. Our photoshoots are so much more than just pictures with a Unicorn in them. They are an overall magical experience for kids and adults alike.

Kathy & Luke... and Scott (bestman) & Kiersten (maid of honour). You guys made my day. Especially Luke. Yep, Luke. With your really bad jokes and lost sole. And Kiersten squeezing buns. I was laughing all the way home. It was a pleasure to meet all of you at Stillwater on the Lake for your elopement.

Intimate Elopement - Stillwater on the Lake

9/21/2022

Paige and Ryan's elopement at Stillwater on the Lake last week was something so special and spectacular. That veil and dress! Truly stunning! And thank you Ryan, for helping me arrange Paige's dress for the photos! You are a true gentleman.
The gardens at Stillwater are so beautiful this time of year (actually all year) and it shows in their wedding photos. I was honoured to be able to capture this special day for them.

Elopement - Linda & Jesse

This elopement at Stillwater on the Lake was one of the most beautiful elopements I've attended. The bride and groom are so much in love and everything went perfectly. And, these two jumped into a canoe to paddle around Chemong Lake for a fun time and some great photos. It was absolutely amazing and I'm happy I could be a part of it.

Such a perfect day for a perfect elopement. Melissa and Tristan, you two are meant for each other. You both looked stunning. Tristan with your Esquire poses (you were a fast study) and Melissa with your absolutely stunning dress. And, to make it even more perfect, your Maid of Honour, Brittany and Best Man, Chad were such a delight to work with. Thank you Brittany for being the official dress "floofer" Melissa had you working hard with her dress!

Elopement - Samantha & Jason

Aren't these two so romantic together? And we had some fun with Samantha's veil at Stillwater on the Lake just outside of Peterborough, Ontario. Samantha and Jason had just tied the knot and we were walking around the beautiful gardens to get some great photos of the two of them. And the last photo of them eating cake-priceless.

Cobourg Town Hall Wedding & Beach photos

9/3/2022

I recently met two couples who tied the knot at Cobourg Victoria Town Hall. I love these types of weddings, where everything is relaxed and intimate. There is no pressure of many people watching you, people arriving late for your wedding, waiting for RSVPs, doing a head count for food, etc., etc., etc. These couple were surrounded by family and a few friends who witnessed their vows and commitment to each other. Afterwards, each couple walked to Cobourg beach ad boardwalk for some photos. It's perfect with the beach being so close to the ceremony site.
