Wedding: Janie & Ray

I had the chance to shoot with Joel Smith on a wedding that was planned, organized, as well as enjoyed as part of a giveaway. Janie & Ray were the lucky winners of the contest.... and couldn't have been more happy and thankful for this amazing and gracious wedding. The amount of love that was at this wedding was un-believable.

Sports: Innisfil hockey tournament.

This past weekend I had the chance to drive up to Innisfil with Barry Springle , owner of DSP ( Digital Sports Photography). I had a blast getting to know Barry and asking him a thousand questions. Early mornings were accompanied with a monster coffee and breakfast sandwich as most early mornings require. DSP has one of the nicest set-ups for on loacation printing and viewing. It was a good time shooting and putting up the shots from the game before the parents even have a chance to leave the stands... Barry and I would trade off so that there was always someone at the table. I went into this tournament blind, shooting with unfamiliar gear. We used a Canon 1D with a f2.8 Canon 300mm attached to a Monopod.... WHAT A MASSIVE LENSE!!

All in all the weekend was filled with learning, laughter, and even conversations with the owner of a scuzzy rundown motel about Battlestar Galactica... which we didnt ask him to bring up..lol.

Wedding: Christy & Dan Muir

These are from a wedding that Joel Smith and I did back in October. The wedding was great and it was a perfect october weekend with all the fall colouring, Joel had asked me to second shoot for him which was my first time ever shooting a wedding... I was a bit nervous but I think it went really well and Joel was very pleased with how my shots turned out... Joel was a great teacher and really took to helping me and showing me a ton of stuff to make things easier for me. He really made the nervousness go away.

Wedding: Gina & Glenn

Rick had asked me if i could assist and second shoot for him on this wedding, the day was perfect. I made my way over to Glenn and the guys place while Rick went to Storm with the girls. After all that we met up at the church for the ceremony. After the ceremony we went down to the Ft.Erie waterfront in which i jumped in the FREEZING water to make sure Rick was getting good lighting... im glad it helped and im glad it put a smile on everyones face. Rick and I went to a really awesome train bridge after and all in all, the day was great.
