The Hamilton's V

I'm always honored and excited to photograph the Hamilton's. This was the fifth time and I can't believe how big the boys are getting!

They're always a bundle of laughs and such troopers when I ask them to pose in graffitied tunnels and abandoned dilapidated houses, not to mention scramble around in reed fields.

We shot this on a sunny Easter weekend in Oakville, Ontario. It wouldn't be a Hamilton shoot without some awesome props, right? Check out the seriously adorable Easter eggs made by the family! We also brought along a giant chocolate soccer ball which the boys discovered during the shoot....

Thanks for the always GOOD TIMES, love you guys xoxo

Meet Baby Evie!

I'm so happy for my friends A + J who recently had a beautiful baby girl, Evie. I loved capturing this gorgeous little baby girl with a full head of hair and the rosiest cheeks.

A + J are one of my favorite couples to photograph, as we're always in tears laughing!  Here are a few teasers of darling Evie being fed, burped and kissed so that she falls asleep sweetly in the arms of her loving parents...

Fly Porter

Ever since Toronto introduced the "Toronto Island Airport" I've been a fan. A city airport? What a great idea! First it was the convenience of it being in the heart of the city and the incredible Porter lounge, outfitted with MACs and a kitchen with Starbucks beverages, and all the snacks you could want.

Soon, the service and reliability of flying Porter became apparent and now, it's expanding! Billy Bishop Toronto City Airport will soon have a pedestrian tunnel between the mainland and the island. As it stands now, the ferry ride between the two may not make much logistic sense although it serves as a nice break for passengers to take in the gorgeous Toronto skyline.

July: Art to Inspiration

I'm beside myself that Sups from Chevrons & Éclairs has chosen one of my photographs for this month's A2I!

I thought I'd give a bit of background to this image, which is one from a series I shot for Aarti when she was starting up her yoga company, 'Healing Yoga with Aarti'. 

I love this quote from her practice:

 "Health is wealth, peace of mind is happiness, yoga shows the way" - Swami Vishnudevananda

Aarti was looking for yoga photos that weren't conventional (ie. sun-set-silhouette-type shots) but more of something organic with interesting body shapes and unique backdrops.  She was really open-minded so we tried some really cool things, like this shot of her in her beautiful lehenga out on the skating rink at the Harbourfront Centre across from our condo and the CN Tower in Toronto. Here, some other shots from her shoot.

Thank you Sups for choosing one of my pieces for this month's Art To Inspiration!

You'll be able to see the full A2I gallery over here.
