What can I say, except that it was so very worth it to fly to Rio De Janeiro to shoot Abigail + Gustavo’s second wedding. As you may recall, they were married first in Toronto in June (see post here.) This time they wed in a garden on a mountain, on a beautiful property called...

reeling from Rio
Just back from a whirl-wind weekend trip to Rio de Janeiro for Abigail + Gustavo’s amazing wedding #2. More on that to come…
In the meantime, here’s an image of Rocinha, the oldest and largest favela in Rio. 200 thousand people live here.
poor me
Vanessa Farquharson and I go way back. Not just with our unrelated Farquharson roots, but also with our photos. I photographed her here, in 2008 for her book Green as a Thistle. Since then, we have become friends. You can imagine how delighted I was to have the opportunity to shoot her wedding on Friday.

let me just grab a tissue, then I’ll be with you
I’m slightly delayed on publishing this slideshow. It’s not for lack of trying, but I haven’t been able to get through the images without tearing up, choking up, and cracking up. It all started, when I started crying during Aly+Hugh’s ceremony, and cried my way through the recessional. Then it just continued through the evening,...
romancing the summer
Balloons, pets, sunshine, roadtrips and freedom. That’s what it’s all about, isn’t it? This shoot was straight out of a summer dream. One I don’t want to wake up from!
keeping you waiting
Looking at the two pictures I just selected for this blog post teaser, I see that I am being mysterious. It’s not intentional, per se. I just can’t tell you more, yet, as I’m still recovering from the pure magic of this East Coast wedding this past weekend. I’m not prepared to show you...
Wedding of a Lifetime
I know this might seem risky to say, but I can pretty much guarantee that you have never been to a wedding like this. I am willing to put it in writing. Right here on my blog.
I can’t even say more, as it’s been almost a month, and I am still blown away by...
Get up, get down, it’s party town
Did you hear the shaking up at the Weston Prince Hotel on June 27? It was rocking, you might have heard it. It wasn’t G20, it was Sari + Daniel’s wedding. A celebration that was really like no other. If you weren’t there, I’m sorry to say, you missed out.
I guess that kind of fun...
“the best camera is the one that’s with you”
This is what Chase Jarvis says, making his iPhone photos so famous recently. I admired this saying since I heard it, never thought much of it because the camera that is with me is always the Canon 5D mark ii (AKA the Best Camera). This weekend I brought my trusty camera to a cottage for...
Love without borders Part 1
Abigail + Gustavo are international lovers. They were married on June 26 in Toronto. They will be married again in Rio on August 21. With the Toronto version of their wedding being this much fun, I can’t wait to see how much fun the Rio version will be!
Stay tuned…
