LA Engagement Session

Taylor Jackson — Fri, 20 Jan 2012 17:25:43 +0000

How random life is:
Anna emails me on Thursday while I’m sitting at the airport – they’re getting married in Toronto – but they live in LA. Her 96 year old grandmother lives in North York, and can’t travel, so they’re bringing the wedding to her.

I just so happened to be driving through LA that Sunday en route to pandas in San Diego. If you know me, you know how awesome I think pandas are.

So we got together for photos.

If you’ve seen 500 Days of Summer, this ones for you:

After a night in Laguna Beach (LCs parents house looks amazing – if only I had 13million to buy it) it was down the PCH for pandas (with a stop at Sombrero’s Mexican Food because Blink 182 put it in Josie.)

Today is the day I blog my favorite photo of ever.

Taylor Jackson — Fri, 07 Oct 2011 15:59:23 +0000

I love the light in October. This image is straight out of camera with no editing. (With exception to a resize sharpen and url tag)

It’s just the way the world was at that moment. Perfect.

This picture has taken my entire lifetime to create — and I can honestly say I feel it is the best photo I’ve ever taken. I’m completely happy with it (Yao and Al are too!)

It’s the first time I’ve actually stopped to appreciate anything I’ve ever done.

As an artist, it’s impossible to ever be happy with with your work. It’s an infinite bar that no one will ever hit.

I think my goal has always been to make peoples lives feel extraordinary. I think this photograph defines what I try to do every day.

It makes me feel so much better to take a photograph that wasn’t set up or staged in any way. We were on our way back to our cars.

Stratford Wedding | Andrea and Adam

Taylor Jackson — Sun, 07 Aug 2011 11:12:14 +0000

What a phenomenal day. Andrea and Adam were married in her backyard in Stratford. Wizard of Oz – Indiana Jones hats – popcorn – red carpets – turtles living in the salt water pool – and an amazing wedding party. What more could you ask for?

Bermuda Engagement Session with Jess and Kevin!

Taylor Jackson — Fri, 17 Jun 2011 17:35:46 +0000

You can’t really get much better than an engagement session in Bermuda. Jess and Kevin have lived down there for a little while and are getting married at Palais Royale next year. They showed us an amazing time while on the island. Thanks so much for having us!

Langdon Hall Wedding – Michelle and Steve

Taylor Jackson — Sun, 12 Jun 2011 06:15:37 +0000

Michelle and Steve were married today at Langdon Hall in Cambridge. It’s easily my new favorite, and the best wedding location in Kitchener/Waterloo/Cambridge area – it took the title from La Hacienda Sarria.
It’s was an emotional day to say the least.
Here are a few select shots from the day!

Riu Palace Cabo San Lucas Wedding – Erin and Marcus

Taylor Jackson — Mon, 06 Jun 2011 13:03:21 +0000

Erin and Marcus took me with them to their destination wedding at the Riu Palace in Cabo, Mexico last week. I think it’s safe to say that everyone had an amazing time. Here’s a random selection of shots from the week!

There were some random 20 foot waves here and there. Some contained rainbows…this one did not.

Trash The Dress Destination Wedding | Azul Sensatori Mexico

A few photos from Miriam and Lukes Trash the Dress at the Azul Sensatori in Cancun Mexico.

The Tannery Wedding, Kitchener | Heidi and Chris

Taylor Jackson — Mon, 16 May 2011 16:55:27 +0000

I cannot even begin to explain how much fun this day was. Heidi and Chris are amazing together, and also two of my favorite people I have met in years. They were married at Grist Mill on the edge of Waterloo Park, and headed to The Tannery in Kitchener for the reception. Congrats you two!

They first met at Ethel’s in Uptown Waterloo, so we figured we should stop by for a few photos.

Destination Wedding at Azul Sensatori

Taylor Jackson — Thu, 27 Jan 2011 20:17:26 +0000

Greetings from the Azul Sensatori by Karisma down here near Cancun / Mayan Riviera in Mexico. Miriam and Luke had a beautiful beach wedding earlier this week. Perfect weather, and more than 60 family and friends.

The best part of a destination wedding is that the party lasts for an entire week. A lot of people came together to make it happen: family, friends, Weddings By Oceans, Sunquest/Signature, and a little help from a destination wedding forum.

Anyways here are a few shots from the wedding on Monday. The sunrise post shoot we did this morning will be soon to follow.

Big thanks again to Miriam and Luke for bringing us down to capture their week, as well as being so much fun to photograph. Congrats!
