christina & jesse: a Kingston family wedding along historical shores

christina & jesse: a Kingston family wedding along historical shores

This wedding is a special one for me in that it is the third of three sisters who’s weddings I have been privileged to photograph: Brittany in 2016 https://knorthphotography.ca/blog/brittany-paul-an-action-packed-wedding-day-at-casa-loma-and-atlantis-pavillions/, Becky last year https://knorthphotography.ca/blog/becky-nick-fun-in-love-at-the-berkeley-church/and now Christina & Jesse in the…

carolyn & ross: two stunners in love under the skyway, a Burlington shoot for lovers

carolyn & ross: two stunners in love under the skyway, a Burlington shoot for lovers

This shoot with Carolyn & Ross started in my dreams…all those long drives over the Burlington Skyway to visit my family over Niagara way…all those slow sunsets bathing the bridges and buildings in honey lights. So many times I’ve stopped to shoot a few frames and then longed for a subject to insert into the madness. When these two agreed to come along and stomp with me through the dust and…

katy & jonny: a country wedding in sunny Wainfleet

katy & jonny: a country wedding in sunny Wainfleet

I was honoured and delighted to shoot a wedding in my own family this past August. It’s been a long while since the last one – and so much fun to be completely out of doors, all day and night long, in the dreamy summertime heat. Katy, my dynamic and accomplished niece, envisioned her wedding day out of these modest fairgrounds, and with the collaborative effort of her mom (my sister) and no doubt…

madhu & prahlad: an auspicious autumn hindu wedding ceremony

madhu & prahlad: an auspicious autumn hindu wedding ceremony

My last wedding of the season was truly exceptional, and all because of these two individuals and the love they exude for each other.  Madhu & Prahlad’s wedding day began before dawn, with snowflakes gently falling outside the windows of their hotel in Brampton. They dressed to the nines, caught a quick morning glimpse of one another and then straight away to the Sringeri Vidya Bharati Foundation…

melinda & dan: a love story at the berkeley fieldhouse

melinda & dan: a love story at the berkeley fieldhouse

An early day portrait session, a late-morning wedding ceremony, and a Sunday brunch!  And what a civilized celebration for two families just getting to know one another. One from Stoney Creek and the other from Utah – this was a wedding union across borders and a delightful blending of personalities over poached eggs and mimosas. Melinda is a bright soul of a human with a generous smile and an…

leah & leon: a lavish celebration at The Guild Inn Estate

leah & leon: a lavish celebration at The Guild Inn Estate

A meticulously orchestrated event on a sunny Sunday in September…a long-awaited day to make every intention clear and put aside all of life’s complications, to say ‘yes, I bind my life to you’. It is not just a day packed with decor, with beautiful and shiny things, with words and signatures and long lists of details. It is a day with weight and promise.

So, just as this wedding day was…

baby peter and his folks

baby peter and his folks

Lost in a townhouse somewhere in north Toronto, I get a few fleeting moments with this tiny boy and his watchful parents. Such deep pools are those eyes. So much love in these spaces. What a dreamscape is the domain of a newborn baby.

vrinda & ticu: an intimate hindu ceremony in Markham

vrinda & ticu: an intimate hindu ceremony in Markham

  Just a simple note is all this day needs.

The bride. The groom.

And a splash of family gathered in the bright light of the temple.

Keeping things close and uncomplicated.

Vrinda and Ticu are guided through the intricate stages of the Hindu ceremony. They savour sweets, they bless flower petals, they burn spices, honey and ghee. They gaze at one another. Ancient words are spoken. Their garments…

becky & nick: fun in love at the Berkeley Church

becky & nick: fun in love at the Berkeley Church

Rarely do I tell a story from start to finish. I like to begin in the middle and then work my way around and out. But here’s a day that begs a linear translation–it’s just simply entertaining enough exactly the way it happened.

Becky put her red dress on upstairs, with her mom, in the bedroom of her & Nick’s 4-storey apartment. Downstairs, her bridesmaids ran Nick & the groomsmen through a series…

isabelle & rodrigo: wedding portraits in Toronto's business core

isabelle & rodrigo: wedding portraits in Toronto’s business core

A classic shoot along Bay St. beginning with the hub of hustle at Union Station under peak sun! We occupied the mouths of banks and made mirrors of glass walls – studied symmetry in the details. Concrete, steel, glass and stone. Perfect raw materials to backdrop a red wedding dress. I just love that these scenes look like no one else was there – like we had the whole core to ourselves (wink wink).

melissa & anthony at the Arlington Estate in Kleinburg, ON

A late November wedding. When all the leaves are already crispy. A snap in the air. Melissa’s sisters snugged her petite self into a frothy gown by Inbal Dror, and gathered round to coach her on all things bridal. Accompanied by her puff ball toddler flower mates, bashful ring-boy and volumes of family, she is delivered by convoy to the St Francis of Assisi Parish. Quite a place. Soaring and…

jenn & matt: a breezy wedding day at the Thompson Hotel

A whirlwind of a day, literally. Jenn, truly gorgeous right from the get go, slips into her shoes and dress and we’re on the go. Matt and his men, tick tock: ties, pocket squares, schedule, scotch, and they’re out on the street. The day is on the move. A first look on Toronto’s super cool Puente De Luz (“Bridge of Light”) and then we linger, to capture some images against the city’s condo-laden…
