Sneak Peek!

The newly wed Mrs. Batista got all done up in her wedding dress again for a Trash-the-Dress photo shoot. We had such a fun time and I couldn't wait to put up a few shots. So, without further ado, here's a little sneak peek!

Jolly Ol'

Last summer I spent three months in England with my amazing cousin, Natalie, and her beautiful family. Natalie is an incredibly talented photographer and a huge inspiration to me (hence last months' blog post). So when I was given the opportunity to be her apprentice, I took it with a (huge!) smile on my face. Easily one of the best decisions I've ever made.

I had the most amazing time - learning everything I could about photography and being with family I don't see often enough. The only negative about the whole thing? It was only three months!

Below are some of my favourites from the trip.

Fall Fun!

I have a love-hate relationship with Fall. I hate seeing the summer ending; the cooler, windier weather; and the sad realization that winter is around the corner. BUT I love the colours of the changing leaves; Thanksgiving and Halloween; and taking photos this time of year.

A few of my girls and I went to Riverdale Park and got some really great shots taking in all that Fall has to offer. It was such a lovely day and we had a really great time.

Here are some of my faves from the day. And, yes, I know there are more than I usually put up... It's cuz my friends' are really pretty and I couldn't condense the photos any more than I already have! ;)




Beautiful ladies with the Toronto skyline. Love this!

Purdy Bennett's

I put up a sneak peek earlier this week of a shoot I did with my beautiful cousin and her family. Now that I'm done with the images, I can finally share the rest!

The colours in the photos are incredible. We really couldn't have asked for a better fall day or location. It was perfect!

And it's actually pretty hard not to get nice photos of this little fam. They're all gorgeous and have so much fun together. Add that to the fact that they're my family and you can understand why I adore photographing them. Plus, any extra time I get to spend with their little man is incredible! ;)

More B&W Wedding

Here are a few more shots from the rest of Bonnie and Weldon's day (see their sneak peek here!). What a gorgeous day it was - the venue was perfect, the bride was stunning, the groom - a handsome devil and their kids and niece were a d o r a b l e !

It was just an all around amazing day and I'm so happy I was part of it. Thanks for sharing your day with me Mr. & Mrs. Guy!
