A lot of graduates will certainly remember this “COVID-19 year” given that they weren’t able to celebrate this milestone with their classmates, teachers and family, in a “full” way. Yet, as parents, you would do anything you can to show how proud you are of your child, especially when the next academic year will be […]
Read More...When I think about my first meeting with Leanna and Kishan, it was truly a fond memory. Leanna, after her work day, picked me up from the subway station (as my Uber … haha!). Then, we headed over to Kishan’s apartment and we had such a chill, casual conversation over a French-pressed coffee that Kishan […]
Read More...This would be my third time travelling to Ottawa to shoot a wedding and I was stoked! I love the vibe of Ottawa. With its English-French bilingualism, and the water running in and around the city, it makes me feel like I’m in an official Canadian city. I’m so grateful to that Béatrice and Brendan […]
Read More...Providence or the benefits of social media? I think the first that made for the latter. Alfie and I haven’t seen each other since almost 20 years with our mutual friends. It was only providence that through a Facebook query, looking for photographers, that we would reconnect. Alfie Vente, from Vente Pain Relief Clinic, was […]
Read More...Where do I even begin with this family? JP and I had first known “of” each other, through the circle of musician friends who loved to jam, record and song-write all for the love of music! Yet, once we actually got together for a few collabos, it was a friendship that was going to remain […]
Read More...When creatives get together, wonderful art out of life is made. These two artists, J. and L., gave me the opportunity to be just as creative capturing how they had planned their big day. During our first meeting, we were talking all about our experiences in the fine arts program in university and all I […]
Read More...Today, my baby brother gets married. “Baby brother” truly describes us well because (a) he’s my only brother; and (b) he was born when I was a strapping 12-year old. I’ve certainly seen him grow through all the years. For sure there was that awkward adolescent stage where our interests collided (he liked Weird Al’ […]
Read More...This was an A++ wedding because, it was Angela & Aaron’s. (Sorry, bad dad-pun-joke!) Since our first meeting, we naturally got along and enjoyed talking about wedding details and the Raptors (’twas the season). And even though they booked me well in advance, catching up with them through emails was like catching up with long-time […]
Read More...When Nhu & Greg contacted me to capture their wedding, I was truly honoured. You see, Greg is the brother of Trish who is the wife of Cale whom I first met back at my old parish, Prince of Peace R.C. Church (when Cale was the pastorial assistant, then). Neat, huh? So now that you see […]
Read More...Meeting Erin & John was a result of friends supporting each other. In this case, Ian Liwanag (who is a preferred DJ vendor at the Old Mill, Toronto), had contacted me to inquire if I was available for their wedding. After a Skype meeting with Erin, the rest was history and I’m indebted to Ian […]
Read More...Steve and I go way back to high school days. He had (has) a deep appreciation for music — so much so he DJs — and the visual arts that he even bought a poster that we (the Visual Arts club) had made for one of our dances. Through the benefit of Facebook, we reconnected […]
Read More...What a celebration this was! Maja, who I’ve known since my first involvement with the Catholic Chaplaincy at York University, had found her prince charming, Edward. What a perfect match whom I got to witness and capture as their wedding day unfolded. Their ceremony was bilingual: English and Croatian, given that it was also held […]
Read More...You already know how great Jennifer and Josh have been to me and I will be forever grateful for their friendship and giving me the honour to capture their life events. This one was another great session, now with Clark “the Shark” having turned the Big ONE! Boy, was he ever co-operative and just soo […]
Read More...Tiffany and Sean came to me through the referral of a wonderful friend and talented individual, Ian Liwanag (who’s a preferred DJ at The Old Mill, Toronto). Even after having dropped my name it was so considerate of them to pursue and get in touch with me. Our interview through Skype brought a lot of […]
Read More...They had seen me at work at Catherine & Matthew’s wedding and good thing I was on my best behaviour (LOL!) because Brittany & Matt, ended up giving me the honour to cover their wedding! Matt is actually Catherine’s brother and it’s so great when sessions work like this, especially when families like his usher […]
Read More...It’s so exciting to enter a home with newly-made parents, as they prepare for their child’s first photoshoot. Having gone through that process myself three times, I’m always intrigued to hear how the delivery went and all the memorable circumstances that brought this miracle of life into the world. Amanda and Jon were naturally great first-time parents […]
Read More...From engagement to wedding, from maternity to first-born, Ashley and Joel have ushered me once again into the next phase of their lives … expecting no. 2! What a privilege it is to grow with clients whom I consider as friends. Since Isabella’s newborn session, I had only watched her grow through the wonderful images […]
Read More...It was a winter wedding, actually the first of three that I had that month. Yet, what a wedding for me to start the year off with! Cinthia and Michael planned it so well, we even had a wonderful spot of sunshine and got to take some photos outside. I also got to celebrate it with […]
Read More...Being a wedding co-ordinator herself, Catherine had just planned a fluid wedding day that both her and Matthew would enjoy. And it was just that! Knowing that I’m a solo-photographer, we planned it out that I would see her first. Spending that first hour with her and the gals in excited glee, I was able to […]
