Zev Herskovitz & Enny Kadoch: August 8th, 2010

Well, it seems that at this time, the best I've been able to pull off amidst all the busyness is to post one blog entry per month! -Which is unfortunate because I would love to share with you ALL of the weddings we've been photographing lately, but it just hasn't been possible...
Nevertheless, I'm glad to be able to share this one with you all -this year still! (heheheee...)

This was an amazing wedding that Bernard & I had the priviledge to photograph.
Enny & Zev's was a fairytale of a wedding! It took place at the Paradise Banquet Hall in Woodbridge -a beautifully renovated hall.
To begin with, I have never seen a more lavish wedding gown in my entire photographic career to date! (a Vera Wang wedding gown, no less!) Enny looked incredulously STUNNING -and her hair....Unbelievable! She was an absolutely gorgeous bride!
Zev was looking like the stud that he is! LOL What can I say? They make a gorgeous couple!

It was a beautiful wedding -and one we aren't bound to forget anytime soon! The decor and floral work looked AMAZING! My parents, at Heavenly Flowers did a fantastic job with all the artwork from the bouquets, backdrops, centerpieces -all the way down to the most minute detail of the wedding cake!
Speaking of which, I couldn't help but include a couple of shots of that wedding cake and the dessert buffet room -unbelievable stuff! There was a water fountain built around the cake -Incredible works of art everywhere!

I've compiled just a small taste of Zev's & Enny's wedding -there were way too many awesome pictures of their wedding to choose from, but I did my best to tell the wonderful story of how their day went. (Make sure you watch the show till the very end!)

Gabi Shull & Chaya Fischman: July 26th, 2010

Gabi & Chaya's wedding was a lot of fun!
They are such loving and sincere people. They love to have fun and pose for the camera -I love that! It's so nice to have a couple who really enjoys taking pictures and wants to have fun.
We had a blast taking pictures -especially Gabi! Boy, what a character that one is! We definitely had lots of laughs!
Chaya was so calm and trusting -she was just so happy to be getting married! She looked absolutely gorgeous in her wedding gown!
The wedding was held at the BAYT Synagogue in Thornhill. The decor was amazingly gorgeous! I had to add a few of the decor shots in the slideshow -I loved the colour combinations!

One thing that I thought was so sweet of Gabi to do for Chaya was sing for her right before they were about to come in for the dancing and at the head table during the meal -so cute!
All in all it was a wonderful event that Bernard & I were so grateful to be a part of.

Jonathan Ouzzan & Devorah Lugassy: July 22nd, 2010

I do want to apologize for neglecting the blog for the past 2 months...we've been so crazy busy it has been hard to keep up with everything else -let alone update the blog!
But I do appreciate all of your patience and understanding as I know many of you have been anxious to see some of our favourite shots from Jonathan & Devorah's wedding. So thank you for patiently waiting for me!

Well, this is definitely one wedding that will stand out in my mind for the year 2o1o! What an incredible wedding to be a part of!
The wedding was held at the Le Parc Banquet Hall in Markham -a beautiful hall! It was actually our first time photographing a wedding there.
Devorah look absolutely fabulous in her cathedral-like wedding gown with the most amazing -and longest- train I have ever seen! WOW, she looked impeccable in it.
Jonathan was also looking rather dashing in his nice suit! And he complimented Devorah rather nicely right beside her! They make a stunning couple. :)
The wedding went without a hitch! With amazing, and timely, consulting services by Florence Dimant, everything flowed smoothly from one event to the next with ease and perfection. Let me tell you, with the size of this wedding, that was not an easy thing to do! But with every one's cooperation, everything ran smoothly.
The floral decor and little details throughout the wedding were simply gorgeous -I even included some of those in my favourites because they were too nice to pass off!
Then, there was the lavish Henna party that took place right after the reception -which was amazing! Boy, do these guys know how to party!
What I loved the most about the Henna, was the gifts they received, which were so tenderly given by family members. It was amazing to see and to capture the love between them and the joy that was shared throughout. That, my friend, is a gift in and of itself!
We certainly want to wish Jonathan & Devorah a big Mazel Tov and much Nachas in their new future together. And we thank them for entrusting us with the incredible responsibility of capturing such precious and memorable moments for them. We had a wonderful time!

Daniel Casez: July 9th, 2010

I'm so excited to post about Daniel's Bar Mitzvah!
This was the most different experience we've ever had in photographing such an event -and it was so much fun!
When Daniel's mom & I first started talking, she mentioned that Daniel was very athletic and loved all sorts of sports, but his ultimate favourite is the extreme sport of extreme roller bladding. As soon as she said that, I knew Bernard would love the idea and would definitely want to take action shots of Daniel roller bladding.
So off we went to Richmond Green, in Richmond Hill where they have a really cool skate park for just these kinds of extreme sports.
But first, mom wanted to make sure that she got some nice portraits of Daniel alone and some of the family too! So they all dressed up in white tops & jeans -so cute- and we went to another part of the park that has a really nice garden and waterfall (really nice, by the way!) to take their portraits. We had lots of fun there -Daniel's little twin brothers were so cute!
But Daniel was anxious for the best part of the photo shoot -doing some action shots at the skate park!
And we really did have a blast with him there! Boy, can that kid fly in the air -incredible! He not only roller blades, but does bike jumps too!
We got some SWEET shots from it, that's for sure! I couldn't wait to share!!
So click on his picture below to view the slideshow -love to know what you think! ;)
Enjoy!

Moshe Mernick & Melanie Deverett: June 21st, 2010

I know many of you have been anticipating some of our more recent weddings & events, so I do want to apologize for the delay of my blog posts -we've just been so extremely busy, it's been really hard to keep up! But I do promise to try to catch up and post some of our latest work soon!

In any case, I knew I for sure couldn't forget to post THIS wedding! Moshe & Melanie are the bomb! They were so much fun to photograph, it was hilarious!
Melanie was simply bubbling over joy -and rightfully so! It was indeed her wedding day and she was going to thoroughly enjoy it! She looked absolutely gorgeous in her wedding gown and was so much fun to photograph -she would just laugh the whole time!
Moshe was no different. He was simply exploding with excitement and could hardly sit still long enough for me to take formal pictures of him! So we went for more of the fun creative shots instead and had an awesome time at it!
I think these two were definitely made for each other!
What I loved the most about this wedding was the love and support that both families showed towards Moshe & Melanie and the excitement they all shared. It was so special to capture those moments of closeness that bonded them together.
And boy, did they have fun! Wow, I've never seen this style of presentation & speeches at a wedding before.
Mr. Deverett put a lot of work into setting up a full cantata of rewritten songs, funny acts and speeches for the couple -all this was done in the middle of dancing! It was awesome and very nicely done.
But what totally blew me away was what the ladies did for Melanie towards the end of the dancing. They brought out a huge canoe with Melanie's little sister on it! It was incredible and something that I'll never forget!
Wow, what a night...needless to say, it was an unforgettable evening that we were so thankful to be a part of, and to capture such special moments that they can cherish forever.
It was so hard to choose these few shots to tell their story, but I hope you enjoy it! So click on their photo below to view their slide show.
Mazel Tov Moshe & Melanie! Wishing you both all the best and a wonderful future together!

Jeffery Perlman & Abra Maizels: June 16th, 2010

WOW -that's probably the best word to describe Jeffery & Abra's wedding! What an amazing wedding!
What made this wedding special & unique was Abra's one request: "I want something different, artistic & fun!"
"Ok", I said "You want something different? I'll give you something different! I'm game! Lets do this!"
Result: We had an absolute BLAST!! :)
Jeffery was an awesome model too -that guy knows how to pose!

Everything turned out beautiful at this wedding -from the gorgeous decor work (done by my parents at Heavenly Flowers) to the food and the fun shtick and dancing thrown at the reception, a Fantabulous time was had by all!

My absolute favourite part was at the very end of the night when I took Jeffery & Abra outside for some really nice night shots! It was incredible!!

So click on their photo below to view their slide show -and make sure you watch it until the very end....there were some fantastic stuff done at the end of the night!
Enjoy :)
