I was so happy to be part of Kelly and Chris's wedding celebration at The Bear Estate in Collingwood. With my car radio blaring tornado warnings on the way to the shoot and golf ball size hail suddenly appearing when I pulled into the parking lot, the day served up an incredible mix of wild weather for us. In spite of it, we managed to shoot a few shots of the girls on the rooftop of Living Waters Resort before another storm cell passed through and actually held the ceremon...y outside and had about 2 minutes of outdoor portraits before one of the most powerful storms I have ever witnessed descended on us. If bad weather is a sign of luck, Kelly and Chris are truly blessed! They are incredible couple and it was a privilege to be part of their big day, which was a trimmed down version pre-covid wedding plan. I can't until next year to work with you again for your larger celebration. See more

What an amazing weekend at Horseshoe Resort this past Saturday for Laura and Moe's wedding at the peak of the ski hill. Thank you Laura and Morgan, what an adventure it was! You are an amazing couple and it was such a pleasure working with both of you as well as your friends and families!

I'm happy to announce that functionality has been restored to my website and to share a link which outlines new eased restrictions for wedding ceremonies: https://news.ontario.ca//ontario-eases-restrictions-on-wed

I also wanted to announce the unfortunate news that my website has been hacked in the past couple of days and I am actively working with my web provide to restore functionality to it once again. It's such a shame that during this time of social and economic upheaval there are those that feel preying on others is an acceptable course of action. Please accept my apologies for this interruption of my website presence. Rest assured, I am still here and very much looking forward to speaking with you soon :)

I am so pleased that Phase 2 of Ontario's reopening plan on June 12, 2020 will allow photographers to resume shooting within the parameters of social distancing: "Photography All photography studios and services, including portrait, aerial, special event, commercial and industrial photography can reopen. Physical distancing must be maintained between all individuals on set whenever possible and must be taken into consideration when organizing the layout of the set".

I hope everyone is staying safe during these unprecedented times. I have just moved locally and am now living in Tiny, ON, near Bluewater Beach (just north of Wasaga Beach). Moving during a pandemic is certainly an experience I will remember for the rest of my life. Everything went smoothly, however, and I am now in the process of unpacking. Please note, my email remains the same ([email protected]) as does my cell (705-741-9566). I no longer have a home phone number (please accept my apologies if you tried calling it). I look forward to connecting with all of you very soon as I get unpacked and update all of my online information as soon as possible, including adding lots of more current photography work from my amazing clients last year.
