Brad & Irene's Wedding: April 10th, 2010

Well, things have changed rapidly since our last post! We had thought that our last wedding for the Spring season was in March, however, we were so pleased and excited for the last minute opportunity we received to photograph Brad & Irene's wedding at the Sutton Place Hotel in downtown Toronto!
What an incredible couple! It was such a huge privilege for Bernard & I to photograph their wedding! Brad & Irene looked stunning in their wedding attire -especially Irene who was positively glowing in her wedding gown! She looked amazing! And I absolutely LOVE that hair piece she had on her hair -incredibly tasteful!
The flowers and decor was another incredible job done by Heavenly Flowers. The room looked unbelievable from up top on the 33rd floor of the hotel! In fact, you could see all of Toronto from up top. It was a gorgeous view!!
We had a blast with these guys! They were so much fun -and the most important part is that Irene & Brad thoroughly enjoyed their wedding day! Now that's extremely important.

Hope you enjoy viewing just some of our favourite shots from their beautiful da.

Yosef Fox & Rachel Benchetrit: March 7th, 2010

Yay!! We have finally caught up with posting all of our weddings so far this year! What a relief!!
Now, we await anxiously for our next batch of weddings coming up this summer starting in late May...stay tuned for more then! ;)

In the mean time, I'd love to show you some of our favourite shots from Yosef & Rachel's wedding that was held at The Royalton in Vaughan -what an awesome couple! They were so much fun to hang out with and take pictures of! They were definitely into photography -especially Rachel! She was an incredible model and they both looked stunning in their wedding attire!:)

Everything ran quite smoothly throughout the wedding; the decor was incredibly tasteful and was put together by my parents at Heavenly Flowers, the live band from Zemer was amazing (as usual!), the food was simply deeelish and even the Henna that was held at the end of the night went extremely well!
I must say though, that the cutest part for me was when the little flower girl was walking down the aisle during the ceremony...she got almost half way down that long aisle, took a look back to see her dad encouraging her to go on, then bolted back onto her daddy's arms and wouldn't let go! So her dad took her by the hand and lead her down the aisle together. It was all so cute -and the best part was that we were able to capture it all for them!!

All in all it was an amazing wedding. Bernard & I felt extremely honoured to have been chosen to photograph their special day! What an amazing privilege -to say the least!

We certainly wish Yosef and Rachel all the best in their future together -Mazel Tov!!
And we hope you enjoy viewing just a few of some of our favourite shots from their wedding (out of over 2000 pictures!! This was probably the most we've ever taken at a wedding! Insane!!) Enjoy!

Michoel Stuart: March 1st, 2010

Bernard & I had so much fun photographing Michoel -he's a great model and lots of fun to hang out with! We would just laughed the whole time, it was hilarious!! :)
He's a very good kid and very patient with me and my crazy ideas that sometimes wouldn't work or when it did, it took a while to get it right! But I guess it's all part of the experience!

Michoel did a great job laining at the Chabad Gate Shull in the morning. You should have seen how proud his parents were -his mom was beaming from ear to ear!
Later on in the afternoon we went to the BAYT to do his portraits and then the party in the evening...and boy, do those kids know how to party -they had a blast and a half, that's for sure!
Mazel Tov Michoel! You did a great job on your Bar Mitzvah! We wish you all the best.
Check out some of my favourite shots below and let me know what you think:

Shloime Spitzer & Miryam Weinstein: February 16th, 2010

Bernard & I had an exciting opportunity to photograph another wedding at The Presidente in Vaughan.
We had a lot of fun doing Shloime & Miryam's wedding -they are such a fun couple! Very relaxed, down-to-earth and just down right happy to be getting married! Hahahaa!!
They are so cute together -very young! But a good looking couple nonetheless! :)
We did a lot of fun and creative poses with them -both individually and as a couple -and it was awesome!
Shloime completely melted the hearts of all the girls -and most importantly his sweetheart- with a song he sang and played the guitar to. He's such a romantic!
All in all, it was a very fun and relaxed wedding that was brimming at the seams with joy and happiness for this awesome couple!
Mazel Tov Shloime & Miryam! We wish you all the best in your future together!! :)
Hope you enjoy viewing just a few of my faves...

Piano Collage

I just had to share this cute wall portrait collage I made for a client from a wedding we photographed in Montreal! These little girls are just adorable!! I love their little dresses and how they are having so much fun dancing together -so awesome! Hehehee....

So the Grandmother asked for me to put this collage together so she could hang it up on her wall..cutest thing ever! :)

Shayne Friedman: February 6th, 2010

Bernard & I were so excited to photograph Shayne's Bar Mitzvah over at King Solomon's Table in Toronto!
Shayne is a pretty easy going guy -and good looking too! LOL
We got some really cool shots with him and his family! We first photographed him layning at the Westmount Shull in Thornhill on the Thursday before, and on the Saturday night, it was party time at King Solomon's!
These kids definitely had a blast at the party! The DJ did a great job at getting the kids all hyped up and excited to dance the night away! It was awesome!!
Mazel Tov Shayne! We had a fantastic time photographing you guys! All the best :)

Well, hope you enjoy a few of our favourite shots below -let us know what you think!
Thanks so much!!

Ariel Kirzner & Heila Wellman: Jaunary 24th, 2010

Wow, what a wedding! Bernard & I had the awesome privilege of photographing Ariel & Heila's wedding which was held at the BAYT Synagogue in Thornhill.
This was such a special wedding for us to photograph as we had photographed Mrs. Wellman's best friend's son's wedding, Mrs. Steiner, in England 2 years ago and we hung out with the Wellmans quite a bit while we were there -they are such a sweet family! Mrs. Wellman is the best!! :)
So you can imagine how excited we were when we were asked to photograph Ariel & Heila's wedding!
If I had one word to best describe this wedding, the word would have to be "Epic"! Heheheee...It was simply awesome! :)
Heila looked absolutely STUNNING in her wedding gown and Ariel was looking super cool in his suit! These guys were so much fun to photograph!
Ariel especially loved being in front of the camera -in fact, he sang out several tunes in-between photos as I was taking them, because he was so happy he was getting married! How awesome is that? (I think he was also practicing as he sang for Heila during the reception too -so cute!)
And Heila was incredibly gorgeous! We got so many amazing shots of her -I especially LOVE the shots at Kabalat Ponim with the little girl who gave Heila a drawing she made for the Kallah -so sweet!
It was so special for us to be there to capture these short-lived moments for this beautiful couple. These are definitely captured moments that will last a lifetime...you gotta love photography!
The decor was incredible -to say the least! All of the flowers and the draping work was all done by my parents at Heavenly Flowers -and I'm not just saying that it was beautiful because they are my parents either...when I say it was incredible, that's because it really was indeed GORGEOUS!! (So make sure to check out their work!)

Anyway, everything went amazingly well at this wedding and I do want to take a moment to thank the Kirzner and the Wellman families for entrusting us to capture such wonderful memories for their children -it was a great honour for us! Thank you so much. We certainly hope to be of continued service to you all!

Alright, well as you can very well imagine, it was insanely difficult to choose these few shots to represent the entire wedding -but I tried! And I hope you enjoy viewing them too!! Let me know what you think, I'd love to hear from you! :)
