Yitzi Steiner & Chavi Refson: June 19th, 2008

Alright! We are back from England! Bernard & I flew to Leeds, England just to photograph Yitzi & Chavi's wedding -how exciting is that?! We had a blast while we were there. Yitzi & Chavi were awesome and were willing to do all of the silly stuff that I asked for them to do -so we had some good laughs!! =p
Both the Steiner & the Refson families are such nice people and were just amazing in the organization of the whole trip and they were always making sure that we were well taken care of. So I definitely want to take a moment to thank both the Steiner and the Refson families for the awesome opportunity they gave Bernard & I to take part of this great celebration and to record some of their most precious moments that they'll cherish forever! The Steiner family is one of the most amazing people you'll ever meet and they took Bernard & I under their wing and we really felt like part of their family -so Thank You so much Dr. & Mrs. Steiner for everything!
We certainly wish Yitzi & Chavi all the best for the future -a big Mazel Tov to you both!!
And as promised, I did my best to get the wedding photos done and posted on the blog as soon as I could! So just click on their photo below and it'll take you to their slideshow. Enjoy!

Oh yeah! I also wanted to share some of the touring shots we took while sightseeing around Leeds & York. So here are some shots of Leeds first:



Ah! The beautiful country side...


Downtown Leeds -in the rain, no less!

Boat tour around Leeds!

I LOVE Swans! They are one of the most beautiful creatures ever!


Typical of guys...Bernard loves guns...so off we went to the Royal Armouries of Leeds!


The grand entrance into York! -I love these old structures!


Couldn't go to England without a photo of the double decker bus!


World's biggest Train Museum!


This is definitely one of the biggest Ferris Wheels I've ever seen!



"Clifford's Tower"


I'm not sure if this is a church or a palace, but whatever it is, it's huge and it's gorgeous!!

Our last day in England... =(

Andre & Suellene Pimentel: May 24th, 2008

A couple of weeks ago, I had the priviledge of photographing Andre & Suellene's wedding in downtown Toronto. The really neat thing about this wedding was that it was done in a very traditional Brazilian style! There are a few different traditions that are done in a Brazilian wedding that aren't normally seen in regular Canadian weddings, so it was really awesome to be able to capture all of these special moments for them.
I had a great time with these two! They were lots of fun to hang out with and photograph -especially at the U of T downtown campus where we got some nice shots done! It was really one huge all-day party! Wooo Hooo!! =p

Alright, so just click on their photo below and enjoy their slideshow -let me know what you think!

In the meantime, I'll be preparing my suitcase for our trip to England in a couple of days! Yeah! That's right!! Bernard & I leave for England on Tuesday June 17th to photograph a wedding there -we are SO EXCITED!! We come back on Sunday June 22nd, so I'll try to do my best to keep everyone posted on how our trip goes -especially the wedding!
We have never been to England, so we are definitely looking forward -and don't worry, we'll be sure to take lots of pictures! I'll even see if I can post some of our favourite shots on the blog -maybe even while we are still there- if I can find an internet connection!! =p
See ya in a couple of days....
