Hassanali + Family Portraits - Loon Lake
This past weekend marked the second time I had the pleasure to photograph Hassanali and his family. The first time I did so was a couple years ago and took place at Centennial Park. For this particular session, they were renting out a cottage on Loon Lake, so it was the perfect location.

Just like last time, Hassanali had some of this family visiting it from the States as well as overseas. Seeing as how the cottage was very beautiful, I decided to use it as a backdrop. Plus, it was the only real shade so it made perfect sense. Everyone was so much fun and natural to photograph that it really made my job super easy. I even got a couple suggestions here and there for poses or spots to use, and I am always open to that.
The majority of the session was spent capturing the different combinations for family photos but I was able to sneak in a few candid shots as well. All in all, it was a pleasure spending an hour of my time with Hassanali and their family, and I think the photos reflect just how great of a time everyone had!
Mariam + Hassanali Family Portraits - Centennial Park
This past Saturday I had the pleasure of photographing some old friends and their visiting family at Centennial Park. I've known Mariam and Hassanali for a few years now and when they called me out of the blue to do some portraits the following day, I jumped at the chance. It was a very quick turnaround seeing as how their relatives were only in town for a couple days so we booked the session for 8:00 on a Saturday morning and the that was that.

Even though it was an early morning shoot, everyone had a great time in front of the camera. It was a really laid back session which I think shows through the photos below. Those are all genuine smiles and reactions. It was also great to show everyone Centennial Park as none of them had been there before. It really is a one of my favourite locations in town, especially for photographing families.
Thanks as always to Mariam and Hassanali for a fun Saturday morning. It was so nice seeing them again and also meeting their extended family.
Mariam + Hassanali Portraits
Mariam & Hassanali approached me to get some portraits done and I jumped at the opportunity. This shoot went by super fast, mainly because it was so much fun. The location this time around was the marina. It took place first thing in the morning on a very overcast and almost foggy day. This meant great lighting but not so great backdrops.

I made due with what nature gave me that morning and ended up capturing some really good shots. Both Mariam and Hassanali looked great, and the complimented each other perfectly with their attire!
