Wedding of Jessica and Allan at the Arlington Woods Free Methodist Church and Infinity Conference Centre in Ottawa was a great blend of traditional and modern. Kind of like a sweet mullet, business in the front, party in the back.

Laura and Aaron were married at the Basilica of Our Lady Immaculate, with the reception that followed held at the Whistle Bear Golf Club in Guelph, Ontario in June 2018. The venue was a perfect match to their modern yet classic themed wedding, with it’s Grandview Room, adjoining patio and garden, and large number of windows letting in light.
Laura’s make-up was done by sister-in-law and make-up artist Alexandria Dykhuizen
Laura and Aaron made sure to include subtle hints to their personalities throughout the wedding, including their mutual love for Disney. ”The title of our seating chart said “Be Our Guest” referencing the movie “Beauty and the Beast”, our cake topper was a silhouette of Princess Aurora and her Prince and included a quote from the movie “Sleeping Beauty”, and of course our favourite dinosaur Rex from the movie “Toy Story” was an honoured guest,” said Laura.
Laura’s gown was designed by EddyK, with alterations from the team at Crème Couture.
Laura and Aaron’s first look at the University of Guelph was a special moment for them. It was the place where they first met, and spent much of their first years together there. They decided to honour the beautiful location with their first look, with just the two of them present.

Danielle and Joey treated their family and friends to an emotional wedding ceremony at the Merrickville United Church and a great reception at the Brookstreet Hotel in Ottawa. The day was full of laughter, romance, stupid human tricks, and of course a great party. I photographed Danielle a few times in her aspiring modelling days and was very happy to get called in for their big day. I also photographed Joey’s aunt, Elizabeth Manley for the Globe and Mail, a few years ago, so I wasn’t a stranger to that side of the family either. It was a day I was excited to be a part of!
Jessica and Patrick were married at a beautiful church in Pembroke, Ontario before moving the party across the boarder to Chichester, Quebec. I have photographed so may of Jess and Pat’s friends weddings that I have lost count. A few years ago I shot a phenomenal wedding at the North Fork Country Kitchen, but I was blown away with how they transformed it from a rustic barn into a really fancy barn – like fancy AF. The dessert bar was bananas. Not actual bananas, but like crazy-good-bananas. The meal was prepared by Ullrich’s On Main in Pembroke and was one of the best meals I have ever had at a wedding. What an amazing time for their family and friends; congratulations Jessica and Patrick!
Steph and Stevie hosted a fantastic winter wedding for their family and friends in Pembroke, Ontario. Steph got ready at her parents waterfront property on Cotnam Island, their ceremony was held at a traditional Catholic Church, their portraits took place at Grey Gable’s; a historic bed and breakfast, and their reception was at a newly renovated hotel. The day was full of laughter and more than a few tears. I have photographed a few of their friends weddings, and it was great to see so many familiar faces in the crowd.
