Olympic Torch in Port Credit, Clarkson and Oakville

We are so excited for the Olympics to take place in February. Two years ago I got a silver button to support Vancouver 2010 and wore it ever since. Can’t believe its finally here. I had a chance to catch the Torch Relay here in Port Credit and Clarkson. What a cool experience. The number of people that showed up in support of the relay was overwhelming. The energy just oozed out of people and everyone was in the greatest mood, despite the chill. Here is few frames from the participants, flame and peoples jubilations.

Heather+Seb – Toronto Engagement Photography

Not long ago, we had a great pleasure photographing Heather and Sebastian. The fall was in full bloom and we decided to head down to a local park in west end of Toronto for some yum photos. We had lots of laughs and Heather was working it for us like a pro. We are thrilled to document your awesome special day next year down in the Niagara region. Hope you have some luck with house hunting :) You both are super fun and we are blessed to have you as clients
Cheers! Anna+Mark

Karen+Matt Married-Appleby College, Oakville Wedding Photography

What an incredible, incredible wedding this was! Karen and Matt, you have waited patiently, we hope you will enjoy these images. Just so you know, this is probably the longest post with number of images we have ever done. So many great frames, so hard to cull :) Karen and Matt tied the knot at St Cyril and Methodius Church in Mississauga with an entourage of priests. Very moving ceremony indeed. As Matts father is a Deakon, it was extra special for the couple to actually get married by Deakon Popik. After the ceremony and congratulations, we headed down to Oakvile’s private Appleby College on Lakeshore Rd. What a beautiful place of intellect, heritage and outdoors. The park and locations to shoot are so diversified and we had lots of fun shooting all over the place. The reception was held in a hidden gem at elegant Romas Place in Mississauga. Not only did the Karen and Matt had a DJ, they hired a full eight piece Slovak Folklore band. The entertainment was also unparalleled, with many surprises and traditions. How much fun did we have?! :) You guys really pulled this off with out a hitch. Thanks for having us. We wish you all the best in your new life togeter. Blessings
