Kevin + Chelsea

A beautiful sunset engagement session at two different locations near Arnprior, Ontario.

This session was extra special because I got to photograph my little bro and sister-in-law to be! The evening was magic with the beautiful light in both locations. We started the session at Waba Cottage and then finished up at a nearby public beach. I hope to get to do another session at these locations in the future!

Shayne + Kathleen

An outdoor engagement session with Shayne and Kathleen. Settings featuring home brews in their backyard, dogs, a field and a cozy fire.

Shayne and Kathleen have been together many years and have decided to have an intimate wedding next April. They asked me to capture some engagement photos for them which felt authentic to them as a couple. They didn’t want any frills or poses, and I was all for that! We discussed locations that are special to them and decided on two; the first one is their backyard where they spend a lot of time with their dogs, grow hops for their home brewing hobby, and spend lots of time sitting at the fire, while the second location was a field nearby where they often walk with their dogs.

The weather was dull and there was even a little rain, but we were all very happy with the mood it brought to their photos. Neither of them were very comfortable in front of the camera, but after some prompts and some of their home brew, they were able to relax and have some laughs. I can’t wait to shoot their wedding next April!

Styled Couples Session

A styled couples engagement shoot in beautiful Kingston, Ontario.

This elevated, western-chic shoot was SO MUCH FUN. The real-life engaged couple were such amazing models to photograph and provided such an interesting look. The western look paired with the beautiful florals and settings were a dream to work with. The jag, the barn and farm settings all allowed for so much creativity and unique shots. This was such a learning experience and I’m so happy with how the photos turned out. I hope I find some couples who are open to doing some unique shoots like this in the future!
