In Their Element...

On a warm sunny evening in June, we had the chance to capture a couple lovebirds in a location that couldn't have been more perfect.  Andrew and Linda love nature and the outdoors, so shooting their engagement pictures at Burlington's Royal Botanical Gardens was perfect!

With the sun setting as it was, we were able to capture some magical shots that really highlighted the beauty of their surroundings and the love they share.

Tomorrow, Andrew and Linda are getting married and committing their lives to each other forever.  We're praying the Lord will bless your union and we look forward to celebrating your day with you!

David & Heather

On April 23rd, we had the honour of capturing David and Heather's wedding day and what a day it was! With rain in the forecast, we had hoped for even a partly cloudy afternoon that would allow us to capture some beautiful shots.  As it turned out, we were pleasantly surprised and thankful to have blue skies, sunshine and one of the warmest days on record for April!

Getting ready, Heather was the picture of elegance and repose while David waited with confidence and excitement to greet his bride. From start to finish, we had a blast shooting their wedding!

David and Heather, we wish you a lifetime of love and happiness! May the memories of your day always bring a smile to your face and joy to your heart.

Moxie Achieves Platinum

Recently Moxie Media & Design became part of the Canon Professional Network as Platinum members. With a diverse collection of products and accessories from Canon in both photography and videography, we are now, officially, exclusive users of Canon equipment.



All of which is simply a fancy way of saying: we’ve spent a lot of time, energy and money on a wide variety of Canon gear. So much so, that Canon Canada Inc. has recognized us as high-end users and went ahead and showered us with some Canon SWAG.



Over the years in this business there was a lot of debate as to whether or not we should make one brand our staple and leave the others behind, we even tested the waters with some of the other brands to look for differences in quality and usability.



At the end of the day, all our research led us to believe that the differences between Canon and the other major brands was so miniscule that we never really saw any point in getting involved in the war that some photography fanatics still wage to this day.



The point is, we’ve enjoyed using Canon equipment so much over the years that gaining experience or investing in any other brands just wouldn’t make much sense. We’re happy with Canon and if you’re happy with your brand choices as a photographer, that’s all that really matters.



Besides, if you can be happy with the sketchy quality and sub-standard performance of those other brands, there’s not a whole lot on this planet that should anger you!

Sam Roberts Band

Sometimes our job brings about some interesting encounters.  June 4th was such an experience.  While on location filming a press video for John Varvatos, we had the opportunity to meet some of the most humble and well rounded musical artists in the mainstream circuit.



Sam Roberts Band is currently on tour for their new album Collider.  They arrived fresh from a concert the evening before at Massey Hall in Toronto. Visiting the showroom to get a first hand glimpse of the Fall 2011 Varvatos collection, the guys paused from their pursuit of clothes to let us snap some pictures.






If you dig their style and have a chance to check out one of their concerts, GO!  You won't be disappointed!

Not Wasting Any Time

This week we had the pleasure of shooting David and Heather's engagement pictures.  They contacted us two weeks ago looking for a wedding photographer for their April 23rd wedding.  After meeting this great couple we realized that they were also looking for engagement pictures that they could use as part of their guest signing.

With busy schedules in tow, we found an evening that worked for all parties.  Unfortunately, it snowed and rained, and snowed some more. But thankfully, just before we started to shoot the skies cleared and the sun came out to provide the perfect evening lighting.  David and Heather were troopers braving the cold and wind to capture some great shots.

We had a fantastic time with these two and love the display of romance and affection that came through every shot.  Looking forward to shooting the wedding in two weeks!!!

Avery Elizabeth

A good friend of ours gave birth to an adorable little girl this past November.  While she may have come a little early, she was perfectly ready for this big world.  Beautiful from the first picture we saw of her in the hospital, Avery was so fun and easy to photograph! Love the little tongue so it gets first position.
