What should I wear to our session? First, remember that these guidelines are just that – guidelines. However, I’ve found a big element to getting photos that you love and want to constantly go back to look at is wearing something that you can move around in comfortably, feel like yourself in, and that you’re still going to like a few years down the road.

Their newly renovated summer lake house was the perfect setting for NHL player Mackenzie Weegar and his fiancée Maggie’s engagement session. We spent the evening with them capturing photos of them cooking dinner together, relaxing in the living room, fishing off the dock, and enjoying a Parisian-inspired picnic. We absolutely loved having their two sweet puppies, Ziggy and Zeus, join in for most of the session. They were excited to have visitors and, along with the couple, welcomed us in. This European-inspired engagement at the lake house perfectly captured their vibe.

We’re excited to share these NYC engagement photos at Brownstones, where the historic sandstone created the perfect backdrop. We captured the couple strolling hand in hand, with the iconic buildings adding a romantic, timeless feel. From there, we made our way to the New York Public Library and Bow Bridge in Central Park, both offering the perfect settings for more classic, elegant shots.

As a newly engaged couple, one of the best things you can do before the wedding preps start weighing you down is document your blissful, in-love mood with a beach engagement session.

Beach Engagement Session in Ottawa

July 15, 2024

These two lovebirds had gotten married just a month earlier when I asked them to model for me right after moving to Ottawa. I had lived in Ottawa once before for about a year, but people didn’t know me as a photographer “from Ottawa,” they knew me as a photographer… from somewhere in SW Ontario. So I figured I should find myself some beautiful models eager to show their love in front of the camera and take them for a stroll through some of my favourite spots in downtown.
