This is up a bit late since we were away on a little cottage vacation last week! :) 52 Portraits | Week 33
During this year's cottage holiday, you tasted s'mores for the very first time, and it was love at first bite.

52 Portraits | Week 32 When you found out you were going to be a big sister, you first checked to see if the baby had toys in my belly, then told us, beaming, about all the things you would teach the baby. I know you will be an amazing big sister.

52 Portraits | Week 31 Thank you for reminding me daily that life's greatest joys come from its simplest pleasures, like running to the garden every morning to eat cherry tomatoes right off the plant.
London Ontario Wedding Photographer | Lauren & Ryan's Grand Bend Wedding
Lauren and Ryan got married at Oakwood Resort in Grand Bend a few weeks ago, and it was an unbelievably beautiful and perfect day. Gorgeous weather, an outdoor ceremony with a breathtaking view, smiles all around, and not one but two scheduled couple portrait sessions on the beach(one at sunset, my favourite!). Everything and everyone was flawless and happy! Just wait until you see the stunning florals and decor (major props to Village Vines Floral & Event Design and Amy from Unmistakably You for their amazing work), and the incredible buffet we were treated to. Lauren and Ryan, thank you for the honour of capturing your special day. Wishing you nothing but the best as you start this new journey together!
Big thanks to Laura Purdy for second shooting and assisting! :)

52 Portraits | Week 30 You have definitely mastered the art of "accidentally" dropping bites of food almost directly into the dog's mouth, and she has mastered the art of waiting in exactly the right spot.
London Ontario Wedding Photographer | Cheyney's and Ben's Engagement
I had so much fun exploring the trails at Gibbon's Park with this adorable couple. Cheyney and Ben are lots of fun, and I am so excited to be shooting their wedding in a couple of months. Ben brought along his bike (his 2nd favourite thing after Cheyney!) and the setting sunlight was absolutely delicious. Here are my favourites from our session!

London Ontario Family Photographer | The Harper Family
It was so great to see Connor, Amanda and Rosaleigh after almost a year since photographing their 1-year anniversary wedding vow renewal ceremony. We met at the Arva Flour Mill this past Spring to capture some sweet moments while they are still a family of three, before little brother joins them later this year! Here are some favourites!

52 Portraits | Week 28 You danced and giggled your way through your third birthday, continuing to declare your fierce independence by day while still claiming the sweet remnants of snuggly babyhood at bedtime.
London Ontario Wedding Photographer | Emily and Geoff
From the moment I met Emily and Geoff at their engagement session last year, I knew I would love photographing them. They are the sweetest couple, so relaxed, happy and obviously crazy about each other. Their wedding was absolute perfection. From a first look on the beach to a dreamy outdoor ceremony to sunset portraits, it truly was a photographer's dream. Emily and Geoff were simply radiant and their love for each other and for their families infused every part of the day. It truly was an honour to capture their beautiful wedding, and I couldn't be happier for these two as they embark on this new journey together. Emily and Geoff, thank you so much for having me, and thank you for scheduling sunset portraits!! : ) I wish you all the best. Here are some of my favourites!
Thanks to my second shooter Laura Purdy for assisting me throughout the day!
