This was one of those weddings where you wanted to take in every sight and sound, colour and texture, feeling and moment. You couldn’t help but smile when you see all the family and friends and cultures coming together for the special occasion and just having a great time. Jesleen and Jihad’s traditional Sikh wedding ceremony at Graydon Hall Manor in Toronto was nothing short of beautiful. I love photographing occasions like this, the colours, clothing and traditions are always so beautiful to see.

Jihad and I actually go back a few years, we both used to dance in the CAISA Fashion Show at the University of Western Ontario. Actually, I was his choreographer and I couldn’t have asked for a better dance partner! If any of you want to see how badass his skills are, ask him to show you some moves from our New Kids on the Block/Janet Jackson number haha. He’s such a great guy and I really couldn’t be happier for him and Jesleen! Congratulations!

There were many reason to love this wedding but the three that stand out are:

1) Two words – Rick Roll

2) I’ve never met a bride more excited about her photos

3) I could have watched Elton’s parents tear up that dance floor with their swing dancing all night

Seriously loved it all though. What can I say, when Michelle and I first met, I thought her enthusiasm for photography was just pre-wedding excitement as any bride would have. However, as we continued to correspond and speak, I quickly realized that she really did appreciate the art. That was refreshing. It’s always nice to meet someone who truly appreciates what you do and understands your ideas and visions. Thank you Michelle :)

Elton and Michelle were super easy going and fun to be around. The whole wedding crew was fun so it made my job a breeze. Gotta love weddings like that where it feels like you’re just hanging out. Although a storm threatened the middle part of the day, the rain quickly passed through at convenient times and the entire day went on without a hitch. Michelle and Elton also made my night when they told me they were going to Rick Roll everyone after their first dance. Amazing. I actually really love Rick Astley and that song. After that, it was a pretty jumpin’ dance floor and Elton’s parents were no slackers. I literally stood there watching them dance to  “She Drives Me Crazy” by Fine Young Cannibals in awe. They were so good I couldn’t stop photographing them. Something about them reminded me of the young couple I recently saw swing dancing and tearing up the dance floor in a crowded New Orleans jazz club.  I love how dance transcends any era. As some of you may know, I’ve always had a little dance in me so this was my kind of wedding!

Michelle & Elton, I wish you and your families all the best!

Congrats to Travis and Maria! The two will officially tie the know tomorrow! These two are pretty cute so I’m quite excited for tomorrow. Forecast is calling for another hot one at 30°C so I’m thinking some popsicles might be necessary…just not the tri-coloured rocket ones, you can never avoid the red and blue lips afterwards! :)

All shot on Fuji 400h film with my Contax 645. Check out the film goodness below!

What can I say, this is definitely one of my favourite weddings and couples that I’ve photographed so far. This wedding at the beautiful Oak Alley Plantation in New Orleans was nothing short of breathtaking. This destination wedding was like no other. It’s always a welcomed change to be at a wedding like this where the bride and groom actually know everyone in attendance and the experience is much more intimate. I had so much fun hanging out with these two, meeting their family and friends and I’m so happy they chose ME to capture their big day.

New Orleans is such a vibrant and interesting place, I found it impossible to leave the hotel without bringing my camera with me. My Contax645 and Nikon D700 aren’t the most compact cameras to carry around but I couldn’t bare the thought of seeing something awesome and then relying on my iPhone. Having the opportunity to shoot in a location like New Orleans was amazing in itself but there’s nothing like running around the French Quarter, Jackson Square and Oak Alley Plantation photographing a wedding.  I seriously love my job! I literally was running, or at least fast walking a lot (it was ridiculously hot). It didn’t hurt to get a little bit of work out in there so I could indulge in all that delicious southern food. Shout outs to Arnaud’s and The Famous Gumbo Pot restaurant for serving up some awesome New Orleans cookin’! Man I love pasta jambalaya!

Congratulations guys! I wish you all the best!
