How lenses are made

It takes about 6 weeks to make a lens and after seeing this I'm surprised we don't pay more for our lenses. The video is 9mins or so but worth checking out. I have a new respect for the dollars I put into my lenses.

Kendra & Chris

The wedding took place in the brides parents back yard

Jennifer & Kevin Married!

I honeslty do love organizing large group photos -- I'm crazy enough to ctually think it's fun.

Here is a shot of the gals!

...and the couple

Baby Girl

One of the greatest things about my job is meeting the new family after the wedding. Mom and Dad of Ms. O were married last year and this year I have the pleasure of photographing their new baby girl!

Engaged

Some fun with the sun :)
Joanne and Adam are just weeks away from the wedding date!

Crystal & Terry photographed by Melissa Tran

Some of you may remember a while back I had a free wedding give away. Crystal and Terry came in third with votes and with that my assistant photographer Melissa Tran photographed the ceremony and formal pics.

I know...she is gorgeous!
...and this is Mr. Gorgeous

Looks like they had a good time :)

Photo re-takes

I kept them kissing till the wind blew up the veil for this shot, lol. They didn't complain :)

They were married just west of Toronto and their photographer took off with their wedding photos so we got together for round two of wedding photos for them over the weekend since they were in town. It was just the two of them so at least they will have some wedding pics of them as bride and groom.

It's aweful to hear a story such as this.

And, yes I took some traditional photos too but you all know what they look like so I posted the funner ones for todays post.

Tanya & Kurtis Married Aug 17th

The sun was great up until we wanted to shot the bridal party photos. We have had so much rain this year but we made the best of it with sky shots.

Tanya's daughter is so adorable. Here she was spinning in circles to watch her dress turn.
The gorgeous bride
The men in action
