Perfect. That's how I describe Marla and Tom. They are without a doubt meant to be together. The love that I witnessed between them yesterday made me smile many, many times. Her smile is amazing. His character so sweet. Together they bring something into the world that makes you look at life in a different way. I'm not sure exactly what it is. Maybe it's their warm nature, maybe it's Marla's smile or Tom's laugh. Whatever it was, I felt so energetic and happy leaving. I found myself wanting to see them again in the very near future. Lucky for me, I will.  


Love Unscripted.

Last weekend was Denise and Mauro's engagement session. Since Denise is a big fan of carnivals we didn't think twice about hitting the waterfront in Windsor to capture their personalities. These two fun loving individuals are full of laughs and smiles so I thought of the perfect way to incorporate that in...
A Pirate Ride!

Yes, I brought my camera on the ride (crazy I know) and tried to forget about only holding on with one hand, the force of gravity pushing my camera away and into my face as we went back and forth, back and forth....the sheer fact that I was laughing so hard while doing this didn't make it easy to try and get this shot right (technically speaking)! I have to say that it was the most fun I've had while taking a shot! Thanks Denise & Mauro for the good times! Please enjoy the rest of their day below!

Tiffany Falls; an amazing little hike to a waterfall just outside Hamilton. This is where we ventured off to photograph Daniela and Joe's engagement experience. Did you know Hamilton was the waterfall capital of the world?

Of course this was just one of the locations, many of my engagement sessions have two locations. I especially love when I hop in the car with my lovely couple to drive around and seek out awesome landscapes and unique finds, which is exactly what we did this past Sunday!

This is called Hermitage. Ruins from a great mansion built in 1865 that was destroyed in a fire in the 1930's.  Standing there in the middle of a historic site, I was taken back to a different time. It's said to be haunted and Hamilton actually does a ghost walk of this - if you are interested in knowing why, click on the Hermitage link above.

I'm going to leave you with some behind the scenes snap shots of Daniela and Joe's e-session. It takes a lot of patience to get the shot right! While we were there, an Amish family hiked into the area we were trying to incorporate in the images. Here you can see the little girls playing, or expressing anger? I'm not too sure but they were throwing rocks at Daniela and Joe! lol! Good thing they were far enough out!

At a time just after that, this lady started throwing a stick into the water for her dog to go fetch! It was swimming into the composition of my image and then it brought the stick back and started shaking its wet fur all over me! 

_DSC6296.jpgThanks Daniela & Joe for waiting it out! It was a such a great day! Thank you again for the wine and the card, you two are super sweet! Oh, and thanks for the Band-Aid too!

Brooke & Todd are one of a kind!
These two have a very unique love for each other and it's fantastic to watch them interact together. All through the engagement session they were laughing with each other, loving the experience and making sure that they created some pretty memorable moments! I have no idea how Todd makes Brooke laugh so much, maybe he's funny (yes he is) or maybe she loves his jokes (yes she does) or maybe it's because they are perfect for each other (yes they are).

The three of us met this past Sunday, Riverside area in Windsor for their engagement session.  I love the engagement session because I get a chance to get use to how a couple photographs, and what to expect from them on their wedding day. They also get a warm up session for their wedding, a little tiny experience of how I work on the big day ;)

 0143.jpgStopping here and there for a photograph, we ended up spending 2 hours together and an outfit change! Yep...switch it up for a different feel. You can pretty much do whatever you'd like for your engagement session :)

Well, I do always tell my clients to 'make the session their own', by incorporating anything they'd like into it. A favorite place, bringing along their dog, things like that....after all, it is their engagement session! So, Brooke and Todd took it to a whole new level for me ;) As you can see below, being humorous is something that follows them wherever they go!

Yesterday I met my lovely clients Dawn and Wes in Kingsville (one of my favorite areas) for their engagement session. The engagement session is about having fun ;) What I love to do with my clients is incorporate their characters into the images; let them be themselves during the day. I also love to involve the different elements in their life to add personal interest to the photography for them.

For Dawn and Wes, I knew that a relaxed feel is what would suit them best. They are fun, easy going and like to laugh! As soon as I saw Wes's vintage truck I knew it was perfect for the shoot. I asked him, though I think it was more like beg him, to bring his truck down to the beach. This truck is his baby (next to Dawn of course) and he and his father have been restoring it for years. I'm so glad that he caved! Thanks Wes ;)

This engagement shoot had three locations! It was so hard to pull images from the 400 I photographed! Dawn and Wes, a sneak peak at what's to come...

Fun Times!

Jayme







Dawn & Wes says:

Wow Jayme these are awesome! We had so much fun during the shoot we needed to relax and this really helped. I can't wait to see the rest of the pictures I'm soo excited this was just a tease. I also love how you can see Wes's garfield stuffed animal in the back window of his truck, what a guy :) Thanks again Jayme we had a blast and can't wait to see the rest.
