Tabi+ Sam Engagement Session Cambridge, Ontario

Hey Gang,

I must have met Tabi and Sam at least 4 years ago at their friends wedding and since then I've done 5 more weddings for friends and Becky's wedding (Tabi's sister) a couple of years ago.  So when they told me that they were engaged and wanted me to capture their wedding I was stocked to say the least!  I was so flattered when Sam told me that photography was one of the most important aspects of their wedding and they were willing to change the date to match my schedule, can you believe that!  One thing you notice in these photos is how happy these guys are when their together, Im always happy but being around them brought me to another level that day.  It was so special!  You can see the rest on my Facebook

 

I think this one is my favorite.  I just LOVE how happy they are here!

I get asked a lot how do we find these places and to be honest I have no clue, we just drive around! *lol*

 

Tabi you look so beautiful girl and your smile says it all!

Everytime I look at this photo it brings me back when I was a kid and how happy I would get from the simplest things in life like being on a swing.

This shot was a pretty close call, Sam almost got kicked in the head on his way through! *lol*

 

Vicki + Massimo Engagement Session Downtown Cambridge, Ontario

Hey Gang,

I think all my family and friends can tell wedding season is fast approaching, Im getting all antsy and excited! *lol*.  I'll never forget when Vicki had mentioned that they had visited 5 different photographers during our first meeting and a couple of them were prominent Toronto Studios.  During our conversations we totally hit it off but part of me figured that they might of wanted to got with one of the big guns.  Mass called the day right after saying they'd love to book with me, I had to ask why? *lol*  It really hit home for me with their answer  "We got the sense that you really care Bass, about us, our family, friends and about our wedding day.  We know that you'll bust your butt to capture it perfectly"  I get told all the time that I take beautiful photos and I appreciate that but I think I simply capture beautiful moments.  Here's our awesome time during their e-session.  Come back next month when we rock out their wedding!  You can see the rest of their engagement photos on my Facebook!

 

While driving around we foud this really cool abandoned foundry, very cool!

    

 

This was Vicki's favorite!   

This was my favorite, They look so HOT, in a cool way! *lol*

The story behind this photo was a little scary for me.  Im taking their photos as you can see and a lady got into her parked car behind me and put it into drive instead of reverse! She hopped the curb and album hit me!! I guess it was a little funny!

And this was Mass's favorite image.  They two things he loves in life Vicki and his Dallas Cowboys

 

Jeanette + Pat Engagement Session Langdon Hall Cambridge, Ontario

Hey Gang,

I dont know about you but this weather is simply amazing!  I know we had a pretty easy winter this year but still nothings quite like the summer!  Jeanette and Pat stopped by the other day to talk about their wedding which is just around the corner, thy both enjoyed a killer espresso that I made for them! *wink*.  Have I ever told you how much I love my coffee? *lol*  Im so stocked for their wedding!  Im actually going to try some new things Ive never done before like..... You'll have to wait and see! *wink* 

For their engagement session I got an email about a month before asking if Langdon Hall would be a cool place, are you kidding Ive never shot there and always wanted to.  When I walked up to the hotel I heard someone whispering my name in a yelling way, if that makes sense? It was Jeanette in the penthouse suite, no joking!  I gotta say this place is fabulous and if anyone wants to get married there definitely keep me in mind! *wink*  Seriously though Jeanette was pretty nervous, actually REALLY nervous but as soon as she relaxed I had one of the most amazing times.  I felt a real connection with them and I think it comes through in the photos.  You can see alot more on my Facebook!

I simply adore this moment right here!  Jeanette was teasing Pat just a "little" bit! *wink*

What a hottie, I still dont know why you were nervous.  LOOK AT YOU!!

Dont they both look like models?  Super hot!  and the security on Jeanette's face says it all.

We headed back to their room to knock out some killer shots.

This one is Lez's favorite and it looks gorgeous in print.  I gotta give Jeanette huge props for choosing the outfits, they perfectly matched the decor of the room, so vintage!

 

Michelle + Brandon Engagement Session downtown Cambridge, Ontario

Hey Gang,

Don't you just love it when you get a gift you weren't expecting! That's the feeling I got when Michelle and Brandon asked me to book their wedding last week, yeah that's right last week! Michelle hand told me they weren't planning on having a photographer at their wedding but after seeing her friends photos that I had shot she just had to have me. How awesome is that, I was so flattered but most of all honored. As with all my weddings its such a blessing to be the person to document their day to capture all those once in a lifetime moments, I know I say this all the time but I just get all excited thinking about it! So they booked me last Thursday and I shot their e-session on Saturday and I'm super stocked for the wedding this coming Sunday! Here are some pics from their engagement session, you can see the rest on my Facebook.

Oh yeah I almost forgot I got to play with my Leica and I’m LOVING IT!! *lol*

Mariam + Zaid Engaged!

Hey Gang,

Last week I showed my You+me with Mariam and Zaid, today I have a few pics from their engagement party.  This was my second time covering an engagement party and it was just as I remember it non-stop action.  I gotto the hall a little early to find out that the couple was already there, so I asked if they were up for some editorial style of shots.  They were game and you know I would be!  After that the ceremony began and the party got stared!

You can see a bunch more photos on my Facebook!

 

 

 

 

Shelly + Jamie Engaged!

Hey Gang,

I met Shelly and Jamie last year at this time and could not help but notice how they couldn't keep their eyes of each other.  Later they explained to me they hadn't seen one another for a few months as Jamie has been away at medical school out east.  Im so excited about their upcoming wedding, it might be cold that day but Im sure this couple will have know problem keeping each other warm! *wink*  My couples are usually the ones to choose the location for their e-session, Shelly & Jamie thought know better place than where it all started McMaster University!  This is where a long time friendship turned serious and now here we are!  You can see the rest of their photos on my Facebook!

 

 

Jenny + Kyle Engaged!

Hey Gang,

I remember when I met Jenny the first thing she said was "Im totally doing the reveal" *LOL* I had a pretty good idea that they would be a perfect couple for me.  But it wasnt until the e-session that I knew for sure! They were calling for rain all day so I called Jenny to see if they wanted to reschedule and she told me that she had her hair did and didnt care if it rained, at that moment I knew for sure that they were perfect!!  The e-session was a blast I cant wait for the wedding in a couple of weeks.

Connie + Chris Engaged!

Hey Gang,

I know its been a busy posting day!  Ive been so busy shooting that I have gotten a little lazy with my posting so please forgive me.  I met Chris last year and Christine & Paul's wedding at the Riu Palace in the Dominican Republic.  I just love destination weddings they give me a chance to party will everyone for a whole week vs. one day that I usually get.  And Party we did!!  This was a pretty wild bunch of people! I got to meet Connie at My Godsons birthday and we totally hit it off, she loves photos and I love taking them!  During the E-session I usually ask my couples to plan for at least 1 hour but things got a little carried away during out session and before we knew it 3 hours had passed and we were still shooting! *LOL*  Im so pumped for the wedding in a couple of weeks, make sure you come back to check us out!

 

Kerris + Jeff Engaged!

Hey Gang,

I met this awesome couple at a wedding I shot in Laguna Beach California! It was Max's and Elizabeth (Kerris's brothers) I was really blessed because I got to spend a little more time than usual with all the guests getting to know them.  For you that dont know Kerris has an absolutely incredible voice actually so beautiful she sang regularly on TV for the Crystal Church Cathedral.  During the engagement session all three of us told each other how bad we needed this!  I had a dissappointing situation few days earlier and they had some wedding planning issues stressing them out, the e-session was exactly what we all needed.  I had such an amazing time with them, its just a thrill to witness to people deeply in love.  See you guys soon!
