Suzanne and Antonio

Tony and Sue's wedding (September 23) was at Mont Tremblant's fabled Gray Rocks Inn, a 90- minute drive north of Montreal.

It was a rainy and cool most of the day, but the rain stopped just in time to take photos, so we were able to get outside and use the the magnificient fall colours as a backdrop.



After the rain is my favourite time for taking portraits. The light is smooth and even, with a wonderful glowing quality.

"The Most Un-Photogenic Couple in the World."

Wedding at the Lion d'Or! (slideshow)

Before the wedding (September 10, 2006), Cameron and Jessica told me over and over how un-photogenic they were.


Me: "That's impossible. No one can be THAT bad.
Cameron: "No, no. It's true. We're really, really, really bad in photos."


Me: "Both of you? How could you BOTH be un-photogenic?"
Jessica: "Yup, both of us. Absolutely. Especially me."


Cameron: "It won't be your fault if you don't get any nice shots on our wedding day. Really. We're just horribly stiff and awkward in front of the camera."


...uuhhh, yeah. You guys are so unphotogenic, I put you in my magazine ad this year. Congratulations for the wonderful wedding, and for being so great to work with!

Emily and Nicholas' Wedding

Wedding in Vermont! (slideshow)

It was windy, cold and getting late. Did anyone really feel like dragging a 400-pound boat down into the lake and taking more pictures?

"Sure!" said Emily.


So, within seconds, she and Nicholas were paddling around in... a sinking boat with a broken oar! It wasn't serious, as they were only in a few feet of water, but it did make for a short photo session.

Nick and Jessica's ceremony was on a rock jutting out into a lake, at the wonderful Quimby Country Inn and Cottages in Vermont's Northwest Kingdom.
