Hoang & Vicky

We love this couple.  They're just the real deal - honest, fun and full of faith!  We'd known Vicky for several years but had the opportunity to get to know Hoang really well during their engagement. For that reason we were really excited to capture their wedding.

Their day really symbolized their love and faith and so beautifully captured THEM! From watching Vicky whipping something up in the kitchen after getting her hair and makeup done (that shows how relaxed she was!) to the fun photo booth for guests and AMAZING spring rolls made by Hoang's family for the late night buffet and everything in between, these two made sure their day represented them and it was wonderful!

We pray your marriage would be blessed for years to come and that you can look back on your day through these pictures and treasure each precious detail and moment.

The Anchor Family

It can always be a challenge amidst our wet Canadian fall season to find a good time for a nice autumn shoot. So, after a few reschedules due to weather, we finally received the opportunity we were looking for to sink the Anchor family picture project!

Desiring to have a unique picturesque fall setting, we headed to the Dundas Valley Conservation Area. The weather was a bit unpredictable but thankfully the rain held off long enough for us to venture through the trees and tracks for some great shots.

It's always fun having a photogenic family pull into the station, but there's nothing quite like having an adventurous group who are willing to climb any obstacle to get the job done.

A little patience went a long way in the case of this fall photo shoot - it was well worth the weight... Anchor... get it?!?

The Capone Family

When we were first approached with this job prospect it was a bit unnerving and not without a high level of intimidation; it’s not every day you get asked to shoot the Capone family.

Thankfully this wonderful family was located in Hamilton and not Chicago.

We were welcomed into a mansion made of marble by the head of the household John, and his lovely wife Julie, who then introduced us to their three very beautiful daughters.

They make for quite an attractive group but the star of this family was most definitely their grandson Jonathan who was all smiles for us, making it an entertaining afternoon.

The looks in the family however, clearly favored the Capone women, so we left the good fellas at home and took the ladies on a photo walk, stopping a few trains on our journeys.

It always makes for a great shoot when the sun is shining and your subjects are so photogenic, it also makes things a lot easier when we’re not worried about the need to enter into the witness relocation program after completing the job!

We had a great time with you all! Thanks for being such good sports!

Eric & Tanya

Just days before Eric and Tanya's wedding we received a call from their photographers asking for our help. As a husband and wife team they had committed to shooting their friend's wedding but unforeseen circumstances were preventing it. Not wanting to leave them in a lurch, we cancelled Mark's birthday plans and instead he headed off to start taking pictures of the bride and her ladies.

From the moment we decided to shoot this wedding we started praying. Circumstances were not in anyone's favour and the weather was slated to be terrible. Fall weddings often boast unpredictable weather but when we awoke on September 8th it was downright miserable. Our warm balmy summer had turned frigid and the ominous black clouds dumping rain in sheets didn't bode well for our garden photo shoot.

As we have seen with absolutely every wedding we have shot, the Lord was merciful and as you'll see in the pictures below, it turned out to be a STUNNING day!

Eric and Tanya, we hope your marriage is as wonderful as your wedding day was. It was a pleasure to meet you both and capture the precious moments of your new life together.

God bless!

The Resendes Family

When Shelley contacted us to do portraits of her children we were excited! She was looking for the traditional studio style portraits and with so many of our shoots being outdoors, we were happy to have the change. So into the studio we went and what a great time! Shelley brought some of the Resendes family heirlooms and these treasures made for great props and added the right amount of sentiment to their pictures. I think we can all agree her children are beautiful and adorable! There's nothing quite like the awe and innocence of a child...
