Last wedding of the season! Again I was on groom duty. The day started off slow because the groom was just having breakfast with his family. After goofing around we were off to the church for a quick ceremony. The fun part begun, we went to Kleinburg to take photos. The sun was setting and was giving everything a golden brown colour, with sexy shadows all over the place. Christina and Ryan were real troopers because it was a cold, I could barely feel my hands afterwards.

I got to shoot this wedding with Digital Imprints. Jane and Kevin were a really fun couple willing to do anything. The pictures were taken at Unionville in Markham, I’ve been here many times and its always a treat to shoot there.


I noticed some kids put some hearts on the wall so I took the opportunity to get this shot.


Love the fall colours!!!


The bridal party was cool, we needed to have some leaves fall so we cheated and just got everyone to throw them in the air!

Goth style! http://www.u-photography.com/blog/?p=599 http://www.u-photography.com/blog/?p=599#comments Sun, 30 Oct 2011 03:16:35 +0000 Kenji http://www.u-photography.com/blog/?p=599 For Halloween, Glow Academy decided to do a Goth theme with the makeup. I went with a darker light. One octabank from the top. Here are my favorites.

The Graydon Hall Manor (http://www.graydonhall.com/) is a beautiful place to get married because it has the chapel, small reception and beautiful garden. We couldn’t use the garden because of the rain but it didn’t matter because the inside is filled with places to shoot. Frances and Thomas are a more reserved couple, so ended up taking more classic shots with them. At the reception they did a great ballroom dance for the guests! I had a great time!


Congrats! Frances and Thomas! Great dancing ;)

Got to shoot traditional western, eastern and the vintage looks. I had most fun with vintage because the look is very clean and sharp, which called for sharp lighting!

So I got sheets of metal and placed them in the background, looked really cool when the lights hit it!

I took her engagements here. The day started early because with Vietnamese people there is a ceremony at home which by Vietnamese standards you are married after. After the vietnamese ceremony it was off to the church for a more traditional wedding. We took pictures at Sunny Side Beach, the place was packed with an art exhibit, so my skills were tested to avoid people in the background while getting good shots. I think I did pretty well :)

Beautiful place but it was packed that day because of the Canada Day long weekend. Took some fun shots, but since they met at UofT we finished off shooting around the campus. I’m looking forward to shooting their wedding in Sept!
