We had an awesome time snapping some shots as we roamed around a few city blocks worth of green space and historic buildings – even found a (mostly clean) abandon chair! (See below)

I’m so excited for the wedding, you two are so much fun!

So here begins the story. It started out as a simple engagement session in Waterloo, and then we found two large, sealed bottles of alcohol under some shrubs. We are all completely baffled to how these bottles of alcohol ended up under these bushes. They didn’t appear to be concealed, just placed labels up, under some greenery on Erb St right in front of the police station. *shrug*

Oh, and the keys got locked in the Hummer. Not pointing any fingers. CAA was called, and eventually saved the day.

We’ll start with the serious shots, and go from there.

And that’s all for serious shots. Here’s the rest

The discovery.

The product shot.

Smiles only.

Their brand new Ikea living room.

Random facts about their new Hummer:

• The doors will probably lock if you get out while the keys are in (pictured above)
• The windshield is pretty flat, and will attract a lot of dead bugs on the 401
• It can probably drive over my Corolla

This concludes my random lunchtime ramble of the day.

On to more important matters – Eli and Todd!
Yesterday we headed out to the Kissing Bridge in…well, West Montrose. (Is there an East Montrose?) The conditions were absolutely perfect, and it was great to finally get out here for an engagement session.

Here are a few of my favorite shots:

There’s just something magical about that last one.

Back to editing photos for me!

For a city that you can walk entirely around in 25 minutes, there’s a lot of photo options. I’ve just started to look through the photos, but here are two of my favorites for now.

Random insert: I had no idea Waterloo (well, St. Jacobs) had a Walmart! I’ve lived here for a good 4 years, and have never heard of it’s existence until yesterday. I’m not saying that I approve of shopping there or anything like that – I just find it funny that someone that lives less than 4 minutes away from this big store…had no idea it was there. Wonder how many other people in the area are in the same boat.

Anyways, photos:

I have a really busy week coming up with kids shoots, engagement shoots, a wedding, and a few other miscellaneous photo duties, but I’ll get through it all!
Next Tuesday I’m off to Houston and Las Vegas (yes, again!) for some photos, but I’ll be back on Sunday to help a friend photograph a wedding at The Starlight in Uptown Waterloo.

Enjoy your weekend!

We did the usual stroll around town, and got a ton of AMAZING shots. Some of my favorite shots ever, actually.

Here’s 5 of them for now – you’ll see more on my site in the near future

^ Spiderman.

^ Zoolander

So yes, as you can see..they’re a ton of fun. They like to high five.

Chris contacted me in 2008, and we got talking – turns out he is quite the photographer himself. Before he moved to Ottawa, he was the music photographer in the 519 area. He sent me a link to his old work, and sure enough, I’ve seen many of the photos posted on light posts promoting upcoming shows.

Heather assigned a few of the weddings tasks to Chris; photography was one of them. They managed to land the Centre in the Square as their venue, and I’m really excited to see what we can create there. I’ve never had an A/V tech at my control wedding day before.

I’ve just started editing through the photos, but so far this one here is my favorite – it just has a fun, playful charm to it.

Here’s one shot from their session for now:
