In 2018 I photographed a stunning wedding in Toronto for two lovely humans, Vanessa and Rob. Little did I know that I would meet two more incredible people on this day, who would just walk into my life, be huge supporters of my work and become friends (and clients!) along the way, Karissa and Dave. From the second I met Karissa, we connected. She is just the kindest person ever, always smiling, always supportive and I just love her to bits. Dave, couldn’t be a better match for Karissa and over the last 4 years, I have been SO lucky to not only watch their beautiful relationship grow, but document their love along the way. Fun fact: I was in the know when Dave was going to propose in Iceland, and when they got back, we did an engagement shoot in the Beaches.
Of course, like most couples, they had a lot of hiccups and changes with their wedding while the pandemic happened but thank goodness, I was always on the top of their list for “does this date work for you?” so I could still be there no matter what. Thank goodness, because they truly planned the best day…
From the stunning venue of Compass Ross, to the locally sourced florals by Early Grey, to the outdoor ceremony, to the best food by Hawley Crescent, or even to her bridesmaid singing the first dance songs… everything was PERFECT. Not to mention, have you seen Karissas dreamy Luna Bea dress from Lovers Land? or Daves burgandy suit? Everything was THEM and they planned the most fun day filled with things that represented who they are as a couple while keeping the day so beautiful and relaxed.
K + D, to say I love you to is an understatement. I am so darn thankful to of met you both but to have been the person to document your day. It was perfection and I can’t wait to see you two and your newest addition soon xoxo
