Michelle & Stephen
These two lovebirds will be wed next week and I can't wait! They're such a sweet and playful couple with no shortage of laughter and corny jokes (eh Stephen?) ;) It's bound to be quite a contrast going from our warm, glowy evening engagement photo shoot to what we hope will be a winter wonderland. I wish
Ashley + Corey's Engagement
Ashley & Corey, both Capers, are getting hitched in October of this year. They now live and love in Halifax, so we decided it might be fitting to divide their engagement photos into two sessions; one here at home in Cape Breton and one in Point Pleasant Park in Halifax, where Corey had proposed. We also thought it
Jillian + Greg's Engagement
How in love are these two? I'm so grateful to have had the opportunity to capture some of it on film for them.
Jeannette + Robbie's Engagement
To be wed later this summer in Ingonish, it was great to meet and hang out with Robbie and Jeannette for some engagement photos in North Sydney. These two have amazing chemistry that really shines through in every image. I'd like to mention something that I rarely state
Aimee + Ashley
This wedding got me right in the feels. I just love these two and am so happy that they've found each other to share their lives together. They were both grinning like sillies all day — and that right there, is a recipe for happy days ahead.
Favourites of 2014
Wow, what a year it's been. I'm so happy that I'm able to do what I love on the island that I love, and meet so many amazing families and couples each and every year. I truly love what I do and take so much pride in capturing your moments and memories. 2015 holds some exciting new challenges,

Throwback Thursday
This week is Cape Breton’s 14th annual Pride Festival. On this (throwback) Thursday, I found it only fitting to compile a few of my favorite images collected over the years; celebrating the lives of LGBTQ individuals, couples and families. I'm so grateful and proud to have such a supportive and loving community, where my wife and I can
Kelsey + Tyler
Nothing says lovin' like a stroll through the woods, along the beach and overlooking the Bras d'Or Lakes in beautiful Irish Vale, Cape Breton. Date night done right.
Kaleigh, Matthew + Remington
Remington was one happy pup to hear that mom and dad got engaged. Kaleigh and Matthew are getting married next year, so while they were home in Cape Breton on vacation, we got together for a little warm-up engagement shoot, and Remi tagged along for the experience. We walked a around downtown Sydney for a while and
2 love birds in 2 cities
Annie Beth and Justin, originally from Cape Breton and getting married here this summer, have set their roots and are now living in beautiful Halifax. After some chatting we thought it might be fun to take advantage of one of their visits home here to Cape Breton and actually divide their session into two: half here at
Lindsay + Adam's Engagement
I'm sure with a quadruple word score, Adam popped the question using their favorite board game. We set out to incorporate Scrabble along with the picnic spot he proposed into their engagement session and thankfully May's beautiful sunny glow joined us on the water as well.
Emily + Kris
"How about a cheesecake shop?", Emily said excited. "How about
Jessica + Randy
I'm already pumped to photograph their wedding next year. Jessica and Randy are an awesome couple with an obvious connection that was a joy to capture.
Jillian + Evan
Jillian & Evan are getting married next summer. So to celebrate their engagement, we arranged a little photo session date equiped with hugs and snuggles (them, not I), and we did some amazing sight-seeing as well. They wanted to include their beautiful daughter Raenagh also, who was armed and ready with precious little smiles for us. Couples
Erin + Brent
Erin & Brent will be wed next summer in beautiful Margaree, Cape Breton. We had a ball together investigating it's stunning views and countryside for their engagement shoot. I already can't wait for their wedding next season to take in more of those amazing sunsets. Congrats guys!
Erin + Carl
A sweet engagement session with a sweet couple. I'm already looking forward to their winter wedding. Congrats guys!
Angella + Ursula
I went to NSCAD with Angella & Ursula years back, so was thrilled they asked me to photograph their wedding. I knew the gals would want to do something totally creative and unique to them, and it certainly was just that. Days before their ceremony though, they wanted to do a pre-wedding photo session, so we could
Alyson + Mark
"Pretend I'm not here guys, and just fart around." That's always the advice I offer couples or families that aren't really sure what they're "supposed" to do during a photo session. Obviously, there's more to that of course. I do suggest some poses and positioning to help guide a little, but the very best and most memorable,
Monique + Dennis (+1)
Monique and Dennis, expecting their first child wanted to celebrate their excitement with portraits to remember this special time before little Ella's arrival. Thankfully our afternoon in beautiful Point Pleasant Park in Halifax, was blessed with warm sunshine and blue skies. ~ Congratulations Monique and Dennis. I had a wonderful time with you and know you'll be
Alissa + Keir (+1)
It's 2 weeks and counting for baby Adams. Two very excited parents await his or her arrival. Alissa and Keir were referred by previous clients which is always a nice compliment, so thank you M+M. I appreciate it Alissa and Keir came by the studio a few weeks ago for a maternity session to help capture a few moments
Congratulations
I just wanted to take a moment to send out a great big congratulatory shout-out to Jessica and John, a lovely couple we photographed last year in Port aux Basques, who are expecting the arrival of their shiny new baby boy in June. Congratulations guys. We wish you all the best and can't wait to see you
Amanda + Rob (+1)
Amanda and Rob rocked this shoot! I was so excited to do a maternity session with them, we carefully planned out what style and poses they were looking for and played around with some new lighting as well. They were hoping for a few formal portraits, mixed with some more intimate and playful shots with their little
Sarah + Jered
Despite a dreary, rainy Halifax afternoon, Sarah, Jered, and I ventured into the studio for an engagement photo session to accompany their wedding commission later this summer. A true gentleman, Jered was a little shy at first -- but quickly warmed up to me and the camera. He later thanked me for making it so easy. This
Jillian + Kristy
Jillian and Kristy were awesome to work with and amazingly comfortable in front of the camera. We ventured out to a few locations in Halifax, took a few wrong turns, and ended up hiking a bit longer than expected. haha The ladies were great sports and always had time for playful and giggly moments. I had a
Wanda + John
I've known Wanda for many years. John however, just for a few minutes prior to our photoshoot. Wanda warned me that he was a little shy, but after a bit of joking around and giving them a little extra space together to just chat and goof around -- he quickly warmed up to the camera. I was
Erin + Jeff
Erin and Jeff are a pretty cool couple -- that's all I can say. Up for anything and wanted to hit up a few different places in and around Halifax. Now living in Alberta, they wanted not only to create a nice engagement guestbook album for their wedding, but to commemorate the city where they met and
