Grechen + Steve ~ The Knot Is Tied!
The last time I photographed Grechen was when she was a bridesmaid for Jocelyn & Linton’s wedding. I was more than happy when she contacted me to capture her upcoming big day, let alone get to meet the man of her dreams. Their wedding day was in January so, we were all curious on how […]

Leanna + Kishan ~ The Knot Is Tied!
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 […]

Béatrice + Brendan ~ The Knot Is Tied!
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 […]

Janice + Reggie ~ The Knot Is Tied!
This wedding was like something out of “Dirty Dancing” or perhaps “Dance with Me”, given how Janice and Reggie had met. The location … salsa dance class. As a result, their wedding ended up being quite an exquisite blend of entertainment, where their friends from the classes had displayed their talents with a couple choreographed […]

Erin + Jonathan ~ The Knot Is Tied!
For a couple of individuals who serve our country, it was an honour and privilege to serve them. The wedding day had finally arrived and it began with snow falling down ever so beautifully. Both Erin and Jonathan got ready at the hotel at The Old Mill, so it was easy to manoeuvre between rooms and […]

J + L ~ The Knot Is Tied!
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 […]

Angela + Aaron ~ The Knot Is Tied!
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 […]

Nhu + Greg ~ The Knot Is Tied!
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 […]

Erin + John ~ The Answer Is “Yes!”
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 […]

Maja + Edward ~ The Knot Is Tied!
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 […]

Leanna + Kishan ~ The Answer Is “Yes!”
What can I say about these two? Ah-dor-a-ble! From the moment they had me over at Kishan’s place for our first meeting and being “ubered” by Leanna who was on her way over from work, it was such a great time spent getting to know this Romeo & Juliette. Talking about how they met, the […]

Tiffany + Sean ~ The Knot Is Tied!
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 […]

Cinthia + Michael ~ The Knot Is Tied!
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 […]

Catherine + Matthew ~ The Knot Is Tied!
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 […]

Ann-Marie + Ryan ~ The Knot Is Tied!
In the days leading up to the wedding, I joked with Ann-Marie, “So what time do you want me to start? Six in the morning? … haha! <nudge!><nudge!><wink!><wink!>” Ann-Marie: “Umm, yeah! Is that okay?” And when I realized that she wasn’t joking, I took a deep breath and told myself: “I got this!” I was still […]

Debbie + Jafari ~ The Knot Is Tied!
“And ya kyant beet dat!” ~ Jafari’s Father (in his distinct Jamaican accent) That phrase pretty much summed up the entire wedding day that Debbie and Jafari enjoyed and had been anticipating. You couldn’t beat how stylish these two were: the beautiful embroidered wedding dress with a vintage mesh veil and the fly suit with “crystal” […]

Krystiana & Ben ~ The Knot Is Tied!
What can I say about these two love birds? Elementary school sweet-hearts, youth ministers, faith-driven and über cute together! Having known them through church in our parish, it was very humbling to have been asked to capture their “Yes!” to God’s call in their vocation of marriage and to witness them vow to each other through […]

P.W. + S.I. ~ The Knot Is Tied!
This coming Sunday, my family and I will be going to the 21st Annual Butterfly Release and Family Picnic put on by the Pregnancy and Infant Loss Network (P.A.I.L.) Network. At this event, real butterflies are released in commemoration to the infants that have been lost: whether through miscarriage, still-birth, or early moments after birth. Since […]

S.K. + N.S. ~ The Knot Is Tied!
This was a first for me (and perhaps most of Shazia & Norman’s guests): an Irish-Ismaili Muslim wedding. Shazia and I had first met at Mandana and Daniel’s wedding and I remember her being a wonderful and gentle soul sincerely performing her duties as a bridesmaid. When she had contacted me announcing that she was […]

J.D. + C.D. ~ The Knot Is Tied!
They were planning for “small and intimate” and so their wedding day was just that. At St. John Vianney R.C. Church in Barrie, a number of close friends joined their immediate families attended Judy and Chris’ wedding. It was serene and peaceful and perfect for them both. Thereafter, we traveled to the lakeshore to continue on with […]
