Misty morning in Muskoka! Hopefully everyone finds some time this weekend to soak up the beautiful scenes around us. So much pretty popping up all around us.

Ya. This is how I feel about the current temperature! C’mon summer already.
But about this little cutie - why is a child’s angry face still cute??!? Not so easily said about angry face photos of a teenager or an adult….you think?

Happy Mother’s Day to all those incredible moms out there. (My own included!). My opinion is that you have one of the most difficult jobs out there, with duties more diverse than any employer could expect from one individual employee. Not to mention working all holidays and weekends, with more overtime in the bank than could be amassed in any single career. While I also acknowledge that being a mom could perhaps be one of the more rewarding jobs out there, I’m just not sure how you do it. From the miracle of life is born the miracle of motherhood. Thank you for your countless hours, your strength and your unconditional love.

Cheers to the weekend! All smiles, all day; it’s Friday (yay)! Only other day better than a Friday is a wedding day. Or at least that’s what the happiness in these photographs might suggest. Such joyous expressions always bring a smile to my face.

These are the hands…. that even when wrinkled and aged, will still be reaching for yours, will still give you the same unspoken tenderness, support + love, with just a touch.

I love food. I love to cook. I love to eat. I love to photograph it. Having done a lot of food photography during my career, of course I am certain to capture this part of wedding day, too. Did you know that approximately 40% of a wedding day budget goes to food + drink??! Ya. That deserves some photographs. In my humble opinion….

Feels like summer ….. finally! Looking forward to this cute couple’s big day this fall. The engagement shoot was pretty amazing! Gotta love those Georgian Bay backdrops.

My favourite time of wedding day (mostly): the minutes that follow the conclusion of the ceremony (after the recessional). Family + guests finally have a moment to offer love + hugs + official congratulations to the newlyweds. So many smiles, laughs and so much love. I always schedule time to allow this to unfold. Such a fantastic time to people watch and capture genuine expressions of love + pride + joy. Always makes me smile.
