Char + Russell Wedding on the Lake
Char and Russell’s wedding day, for me at least, started at the Delta down at the Marina. I met Char and the rest of her bridal party and parents there. After some photos, we made our way down to Pier 2 where the rest of the guests were anxiously waiting, along with Russell. It would be hard to choose a more beautiful backdrop for an outdoor wedding.
Mino Bimaadiziwin Aboriginal Youth Leadership Program - Kingfisher Lake
My wife Anne and her mother Cathy were asked to spend an afternoon at Kingfisher Lake, which is just outside Thunder Bay, teaching aboriginal youth how to cook bannock. I decided to join them and document the afternoon through photos and video. Of course, I also got to have some amazing bannock made over an open fire! The program is called Mino Bimaadiziwin and is based on traditional cultural teachings and focuses on: key life skills, leadership development, healthy relationships, positive self-esteem, self-awareness and connections to education.
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.
Angie + Family Portraits - A Day in Quebec
This particular portrait session wasn't really your typical one, seeing as how it was purely family. During our trip to Ottawa a couple weeks ago, we managed to set aside a couple days to go visit my cousin Angie and her family up at their cottage in Quebec. It was the first time I had seen my cousin in a long, long time and the very first time I had met the rest of her family as well. Suffice it to say, I was very excited.
