I photographed this cake a few months ago for Lori of The Caketress and totally forgot to blog about it! Lori designed the cake to go with a creative wedding shoot by the Dubai-based wedding planning company, Carousel and the photos were printed in the Dubai wedding magazine, VIVA Weddings. I love the vibrant colours of the flowers along with the elegant gold.
Here is my 2011 wedding round-up! (I know, I know, everyone is doing it but I, too, am jumping on the bandwagon.) I wanted to share some of my favourite wedding photographs that I took in 2011. I shoot so many great weddings that it was definitely hard to choose just a few! A big thank you to all of my awesome 2011 clients – you are the greatest! xx

It has been a while since I have blogged some of my Holga images. Today I am dreaming of hot, sunny weather and thinking up my travel plans for the coming year. Here are some holgas from my last trip to Mexico when I visited the states Querétaro and Guanajuato. I know that you already know that I love this country, a ton. Here is a reminder of why. <3
Mexican Holgas is a personal project that I have been working on for the past five years. When I travel, my Holga camera is regularly in tow. These images are what inspire me to always continue creating.

Family is important. We should all know this by now. These people know you better than you sometimes know yourself. They are there for you, in a pinch, with no questions asked. With family, often words are not even necessary to understand just what you need to say. In the wild lives that we lead, we often forget about these people that are so precious to our lives. We forget to make time and before we realise it, years have passed. This past weekend I organised a get-together for my family from my Mom’s side. We ate, we laughed and we took some photos.
Lori, aka The Caketress, made the amazing red velvet cupcakes that were devoured almost immediately.

Two days before Christmas, Kerry + Adam got hitched! Theirs was my last wedding for 2011 and I loved every minute of it. Kerry + Adam are a whole lot of fun. A whole lot. Weddings are about love: the love between the couple involved and the love with everyone in the room. At Kerry + Adam’s there was no shortage of that feeling. You can tell that they are just great people by the awesome family and friends that they shared the day with. The day began at One King West for “getting ready” and formal portraits before heading to the Distillery District for the ceremony and reception. Their ceremony took place at the Thomas Landry Gallery and followed by the reception at The Boiler House. I love photographing at the Distillery District, especially in the winter when it is all decorated so festive. Kerry took care of every single detail of her wedding and had the ladies of Melissa Andre’s team do the set-up. Congratulations Kerry + Adam! You two are awesome.
Dress: Justin Alexander
Officiant: Jeremy Citron
Cupcakes: The Cupcake Shoppe
P.S. Do not forget to look at Kerry + Adam’s wedding slideshow at the bottom of this post!
I LOVED Kerry’s dress!
Yes, we may have stopped at the Mill Street pub for the ladies to have a pint.

Bailey Ana - Great pictures! I’m such a big fan of Lori, I wish I could sit at her feet & learn the art of awesomeness… Unfortunately I’m based in the UK so bar winning the lottery and flying her out her for private tuition I’m going to have to be satisfied with cyber stalking her every move
