Dianna & Bryan’s wedding day in September was a day in which the weather really was what anyone could dream of when they picture their wedding day. Our day started off in one of our favorite parts of Toronto, the Queen west area. Bryan’s wedding day preparations commenced at his mother’s house which is just a stone’s throw from “Graffiti Alley”. If you have been following our blog you would be already aware of our fondness for that area as a location for photography. It is the most colorful area of Toronto, both for the alleys filled with fantastic images and the people you run into. We also found a wonderful number of props that were very sentimental to him and of course we took full advantage of adding them to our images. You have to check out the wedding cake topper from Bryan’s parents wedding from years past, still in great condition.
The Bride Prep
Dianna was ready to go right from day one when we met for the first consultation. But when the wedding day rolled around we just couldn’t keep her settled until we got to church, She just couldn’t;t wait to get there. You have to appreciate that enthusiasm. I think it helps with capturing the images as the happiness and joy show through. The camera does not lie. A very special shout out to Dianna’s father Mr. Furtado for helping with the candid images. He is a real character and great sport especially with the make up images we captured, which we promised no one will ever see. Unless he wants to run for mayor at which point the bidding will start very high.
The Ceremony
One of our favorite locations for a wedding day ceremony is St. Mary’s church on Bathurst in Toronto. Since the renovations have been completed the church looks absolutely beautiful. We can tell that couples are taking notice as our wedding clients are getting married there at a very high level. Which for us is wonderful because we love it there.
Formal Location
After the ceremony we drove clear across the city to Adamson Estates in Mississauga for our post ceremony photography location. Situated right on Lake Ontario it is the perfect location for anyone that likes a little waterfront and a little architecture for the wedding photography, the perfect contrast to the morning and graffiti alley. Our wedding group was a really fun bunch that made our walk in the park location a true walk in the park. It was a day at work spent with great people that didn’t feel like work.
The Reception
The reception was held at Renaissance by the Creek in Mississauga. The perfect spot to round out the wonderful day with the help of a wonderful staff. Congratulations to Dianna and Bryan and all of the best in the future.
