Lavinia and Carl's Engagement Shoot

Hi Hi Hi Everyone! Welcome to another blog post on my website! Summer has been quite crazy so far! In between the numerous weddings and the ridiculous amounts of editing I have to do, I can't even believe that I managed to find some time to blog this e-shoot session, but I just had to find some way because it was just so gorgeous! So here goes!

Carl and Lavinia are one of my Summer 2018 Wedding clients, with their wedding being in August. However they booked me earlier this year (after Lavinia met with me last year!) and we have been planning their wedding photography for a while now including their e-shoots.

We had planned to have two e-shoots for Carl and Lavinia. One was originally supposed to be in the winter, however just when we were all set to do the shoot you cannot imagine what happened! On the day we were headed to get their winter e-shoot done at the Scarborough Bluffs their car slid on some ice and straight into a ditch literally just a minute away from the Bluffs! Thankfully everyone was okay (including the passengers in the car in front of them, whose car actually rolled over into the ditch first). Anyway It really goes to show you how we should be thankful for the life we are given, as unfortunate events can happen at anytime and I have to say Lavinia and Carl handled it so well. So after that, and in order to make up for the cancelled first shoot, I had my friend Bilqees of Zuhoor Designs create a beautiful floral bouquet for the rescheduled e-shoot. As usual Bilqees did not disappoint and created a most beautiful masterpiece of a bouquet!

 After re-scheduling we decided that for the first shoot we would go to Guildwood Park in beautiful Scarborough and for the Second Shoot we settled on Osgoode Hall and Nathan Phillips Square in the downtown area of Toronto.

A little about Lavinia and Carl is that they are both lawyers who met in law school (hence why we chose Osgoode Hall for the second shoot lol). They are quite possibly one of the cutest and nicest couples ever and I can't wait to capture their wedding in a couple of weeks (God Willing)!

Enjoy the Photos and catch you at my next blog post!

2nd E-shoot at Osgoode Hall

The day we had scheduled for this e-shoot, it was raining tons and we almost cancelled but am happy we stuck it out as the cloudy weather allowed for some gorgeous moody style portraits.

This couple is so fun they didn't mind goofing around to get in some "Black Panther" style shots
