A week ago today I got one of my favourite phone calls. It was about 3am and on the other side of the line @benkundermusic said something along the lines of "It's time. You should come now'". A handful of hours later, I watched as his beautiful warrior wife @jessileibgott delivered their second son. It was the most incredible water birth I've witnessed. Being able to document a life enter our world is one of the biggest honours, and it absolutely fills my heart with feelings I can't even begin to process. These two amaze me as individuals in their careers, as partners in their marriage, as parents to their boys and as dear friends to all of us lucky enough to call them friends. Thank you from the bottom of my heart for inviting me into your life adventures, they are pretty lovely ♡
Little steps for big changes; like five things to practice or achieve this month for growth. ⚀ Learn to finish my coffee before it gets cold. ⚁ Plan an adventure a month; small or big. Ps @anthony & I are working on a trip to New Orleans; any recommendations on places to stay, eat at or things to see? ⚂ Learn the lyrics to at least one song, possibly 'Shoop' or @chancetherapper "All Night" . ⚃ Take less photos, but more with intent. ⚄ Be aware of more inspiring people: this whole #monthlyfivegoalsforgrowth was inspired by @candyheilman who I've followed on IG for a few years and constantly draw inspiration from. Girl, thanks for always inspiring me & getting me to stop & smell the roses ♡ ps. Another inspiring gal is @jennifermoher who snapped this photo of me twirling in my new home. Anyone else you find inspiring?!
A week ago today I had the incredible honour of documenting these two New Yorkers wed in all of my favorite Queen West spots, with all of my favourite weddings people doing only the best parts of a wedding. More of this please! More intimate weddings of 30 people at @northernbelleto followed by more dinners at @terronito with more blooms by @huntandgatherfloral more pretty things from @loversland and more came from @ledolci ❤️More, more, more. Please & thanks!
Cravings days like this. Can it be summer yet, please?! 🔥☀️✌🏻
I'm the most inspired by couples who's stories get stronger as time goes by. Photographing a pair like these two teaches you just how incredible love is in a partnership built on love, laughter, encouragement and a mutual love for no shirts. Alex & Miles keep my heart full. More of their love story is on the blog today. I hope you'll take a peek and give them some love. At home shoots will always be some of my favourites and I'm already excited for the next one.
Last week I escaped Toronto for three other cities, breakfast diners, coffee shops, crammed tour bus bunks, sunshine, music upon music & margaritas. It was great, plus it was all with my favourite person. ☀️🔥💛
I can't even begin to imagine what motherhood is like but I can sure say that these women make it heart bursting. Working with new moms, mom's who are adding another little one into the mix while still spending their day to day chasing after a toddler or even mom's with a house full of 'adults', who despite their age, will always be their "babies". To all the moms out there, you are some darn inspiring women.
Sunsets in the springtime with these two sweet souls.
