Dana Ruprecht of Ashes of Roses and my beautiful wife asked me to take some relaxed portraits of her that she could use for an article that was being written about her in the Hamilton Spectator. Dana was the lead actress in a play called “Chapter Two” which just wrapped up at Theatre Burlington. The article was equal parts about Dana’s history in acting and the role she was bringing to life in Chapter Two.

If you are interested in the article, it can be found here.

Cheers!

Good friends Steph and David are set to marry this summer and I was lucky enough to be asked to photograph their wedding. But before we get to that, last fall we got together one beautiful morning for some engagement/family photos in Gage Park in downtown Brampton. The ground was covered in leaves of every colour and the sun was peaking in and out of the big old trees that create a canopy over the park. Foster, Steph and David’s son, had a blast playing about in the leaves.

Thank you so much to David, Steph and Foster for such a wonderful morning. You guys are just full of love and laughs and I know we are going to have a wonderful time making photos on your wedding day.

Cheers!

Remembering back not so long ago taking pictures of my then pregnant wife Dana, she had this wonderful radiating glow to her. I think it’s all part of the process for women: they are just bursting with all these emotions that they lend themselves to some really great photos. This was certainly the case when I photographed Angel. And it wasn’t just Angel who was beaming this fine morning, it was the rest of her family too. The Massey-Singh’s are some of the happiest people I know and it’s an honour to have been able to spend a couple of hours with them making some photographs.

I hope you enjoy the pictures below.

Cheers!

A few weeks ago, I spent the morning with the Easthope family in downtown Brampton at Gage Park, enjoying the beautiful weather and taking some family portraits. This was a session that had been delayed twice because of unruly weather conditions and we were so happy to have a nice morning to shoot. When doing any portrait session outside, the weather can either be your best friend or your worst enemy. Mother Nature was the former on this day.

Below are some examples of the photos we took. If you or any of your friends/family/colleagues are looking for relaxed, candid portraits, please contact me for your customized quote. As always, my details can be found on my Contact Me page.

And to the Easthope family, it was such a pleasure working with you. I hope you enjoy your photos!

It seems like just yesterday I was posting some pictures of Oliver in his first couple days of life. Well, Oliver is now six months old and I’d thought it was time to post some new ones. Dana and I took Oliver to Gage Park for some fun under the trees and in the gazebo. Oliver was awesome during the entire shoot, content with just doing his own thing. I guess this is all second-hat to him as he’s had a lens stuck in his face since birth!

Anyways, enjoy the pictures below.

Not too long ago, I was approached by friends Victoria and Mario to shoot their son Roman. Roman was born a week after Oliver and Vicky and Mario wanted some pictures to document his three month birthday. I spent some time getting to know Roman and by the end of the afternoon, he was brimming ear to ear for us.

Below are a couple examples of the many wonderful photos we made that day.

A couple of weekends ago, I did a portrait session for Gisele Richter. This cutie was a blast to work with. She played shy for the first little bit but once she was comfortable with me (and the honkin’ lens in her face), she was the perfect model!

Have a look at a few of the examples below!

In testing a new lens that was purchased back in December, I took some macro photos but never processed them. Well today I had a bit of time to revisit the images and I must say, I am very happy with the results. Below are a few examples of what I have created.

Just recently I had the distinct honour of shooting Webber, a beautiful dog and family member to friends Stacey and Scott. Webber was an absolute gem to work with, often making my job very easy to do. This is good news simply because I don’t do much pet photography and was really unsure as to how the day would go. Needless to say, I was pleasantly surprised with the outcome.
