St. Patrick’s Day is widely celebrated by Irish and their descendants.  It is a cultural and a religious holiday celebrated on March 17th.  The family and friends of Nancy & Mike were treated to a wonderful celebration of love and culture.  Nancy, being of Irish descent, showcased a unique Irish tradition.  Green is the colour associated with St. Patrick and it was evident throughout their wedding.  The different shades of green were pleasing to the eye which reminded me that summer is just around the corner.  St. Patrick’s Day would not be complete without the shamrock and what a better way to represent both love and culture but to have a shamrock wedding cake.

Thank you Nancy & Mike for a taste of a wonderful tradition.

  

The last time I visited Hilton Falls was in the spring when I had to opportunity to photograph Bryan & Kamila’s engagement.  Bryan happens to be Laura’s good friend and she got my information at his wedding.  Laura and her siblings wanted to give something special to their parents this Christmas.  The natural settings of Hilton Falls served as a perfect location for the backdrop.  The icicles on the rock formations and the waterfalls were absolutely beautiful.

I hope your parents enjoy the photos and congratulations to you P family as you await the arrival of the newest member of your family.






I had the pleasure to photograph The R Family just after the arrival of their newest member of their family, Baby Ryan!  He is a little brother to Miss A, who adores and enjoys his company.  Baby Ryan was only three days old at the time of the photo shoot and he definitely did very well during our session.  I must also say that for a 3 year old girl, Miss A, did an excellent job! 

Thank you The R Family for all your patience and I hope you enjoy the photos of your beautiful family.





I had never seen so many Poinsettias in my life until I did this photo shoot at the Zomer’s Greenhouses.  Poinsettias reminds me that Christmas is just around the corner!

Zomer’s Greenhouses Inc. is located on the outskirts of Milton, just north of Oakville and just west of Mississauga.  It was established in 1974 by two brothers, Jack and Al Zomer.  It is currently owned by Al & Tilly Zomer and managed by their son, Jeff Zomer.  They are wholesale growers of Poinsettias for Christmas and bedding plants for spring and it is not open to the public.  They run a great fundraising program for sports teams, churches, schools, dance teams, etc.  You may contact Jeff at zomersgreenhouses@yahoo.ca for all your fundraising needs.

Thank you to the Zomer family for a wonderful morning.  Your Poinsettias are beautiful and now I can’t wait for Christmas!






It was another beautiful autumn day when I had the opportunity to photograph Nancy and Mike.  The location of the photo shoot is a very memorable place for the couple.  The first photograph from this blog is the exact location where Mike proposed to Nancy.  Balls Falls conservation area is a beautiful location for an engagement.  The changing colors of the leaves and the waterfalls are indeed a sight to behold.

Although Nancy and Mike kept saying that they are not “photo people”…I beg to disagree as you can see the beautiful photographs of their engagement.  To Nancy and Mike, thank you for enduring the cold weather during the photo shoot and I can’t wait for your upcoming wedding in March…be prepared for colder weather! :)
