Meet Emma. The bride with the golden hair, beautiful face, bubbly personality and deeply in love with Kyle. Meet Kyle. Very handsome groom with friendly and genuine expression on his face.

We started off in hotel where they were getting ready. Ceremony was held at Mississauga Grand. This place is very roomy, has beautiful ceremony room with large windows and lots of natural light which is always welcomed for wedding photography. There was a joy and t ..read more

Warmer season is here which finally allowed me to go outside. I always wanted to photograph model on the street in casual settings, wearing jeans, some bright tshirt and denim jacket. This came true last week. I have been able to photograph Marissa in downtown Oshawa where I am from. The model originally wanted to wear really nice summer dress but unfortunately the weather has been on the chilly side so we optioned for this warmer look and it has payed off. I would love to invite you to watch behind the scenes and also my commentary to this shoot in one of my youtube videos: Our pho ..read more

Anna & Roderick fell in love with elegant manor and green space around Parkwood Estates in Oshawa.  This place is very dear to me as I live in Oshawa myself.  This venue has been featured in movies like Billy Madison and X-Men.  It is truly beautiful place to visit. Anna & Roderick are very elegant and upscale couple. Their wedding looked just like that.  Their wedding ceremony had royal feel to it.  Everything from the dress, flowers, decor to their church selection looked spectacular. I have to especially point out that these people know how to party.  Take a close look at some of th ..read more

Living in Canada has one big advantage. You don’t need to physically travel different countries to experience completely exotic moments. I was so thrilled when Cheryl & Alex invited me to photograph their Indo-Caribbean Hindu wedding. I knew it will be colorful which I love. I think you can tell from my style of photography that I simply love colors. There is also something special to me about this couple. The first time they emailed me, I had immediate connection with them as they were very open and showed  their humorous side. Then, when I met them in person. The deal was sealed. We beca ..read more

Meet Colleen & Michael. Their wedding was happening on the Tall Ship Kajama in Toronto. Or as they say “Kajama, a traditional 165 foot three masted Schooner boat cruise.” I don’t get a chance to photograph weddings on the ship that often so I was quite looking forward to it. The experience was wonderful. They took us on the lake around Toronto Island. We got the see beautifully lit downtown Toronto at night. Take a look at Kajama Wedding ..read more

Wedding Season is over so I finally have lots of time to be creative again. This winter I am planning to do many digital art photo sessions. Here is one I just finished. A little Children Portrait Photography Session.  It is little Martina which wanted to be a “Snow Princess”. I didn’t want the result to be very Disney like so I went ahead and came up with my own version.  She is only 4 years old so the challenge was to make her do what I need in front of the camera. She tried her best.  She did really well. The shoot was quick here in my Oshawa studio, only about 15 min. I am finding that for ..read more
