Fiona & William | Summer Beach Wedding at the Lakeview Hamilton

Fiona and William are a fun-loving, cute couple. Seeing how compatible they are today, who would have guessed they didn’t mix well when they first met in high school! Being the nerd she was, Fiona was not pleased with William when he forgot the deadline to their group project and turned in a hastily written reflection. It took a few years before they bonded through a chat on video games and grew closer as friends. Finally, they started dating in their freshman year of university!

We were so blessed to witness Fiona and William’s big day, just a few months after their cheery Waterfront & Sugar Beach Engagement shoot! The happy day started off with door games, which filled the air with laughter! Following the tea ceremony and the memorable first look, the couple travelled to the beautiful Lakeview, where the ceremony awaited! In front of the sapphire ocean and with the company of loved ones, Fiona and William tied the knot! What a delightful day! Their happiness was contagious and it put a big grin on the guests’ faces. Certainly, the gleeful energy didn’t end there, as our star couple continued having the best time of their lives at the reception. They opened the dancefloor with perfectly choreographed dance moves, not without their own quirks and adorableness to make it their own! From the shoe game to the speeches, there wasn’t a moment when the hall wasn’t filled with a simple but sublime joy. We were blessed with good weather that day – take a look at the romantic photos we snapped of Fiona and William strolling on the beautiful beach! We were so honored to witness the union of these two best friends and document the lovely memories of their cheerful day! Congratulations!

Rosanne & Jamie | Romantic Hamilton Engagement Session

Rosanne and Jamie were destined to be together forever. They first met each other in grade 5 where both had just arrived to this brand new school together. Their desks were even across from each other in class! Jamie was Rosanne’s secret admirer since they were 10 years old and had asked Rosanne to their grade 7/8’s school dance. They danced to this song - Aerosmith’s “I Don’t Want to Miss A Thing”. This song describes them even to this day!

“Don't want to close my eyes
I don't want to fall asleep
'Cause I'd miss you baby
And I don't want to miss a thing
'Cause even when I dream of you
The sweetest dream will never do
I'd still miss you baby
And I don't want to miss a thing” — Aerosmith

With high school, everyone went their separate ways and the same applied to Jamie and Rosanne. For years they did not keep in touch with one another…..not until an app brought them back together just a few years ago! Their official first date was all about catching up at the skating rink by the Harbour Front Center. They had so much fun and it was so easy for them to reconnect. It even brought them to their next activity as they watched their favourite movie - Jurassic Park - the perfect nostalgic sequel! A connection that sparked from grade 5 then to grade 8’s school dance then to this official first date and here we are, they are engaged!!! The spark continues on and on and that was exactly how we felt when we photographed their engagement session!

For their shoot, we decided to head to Dundurn Castle in Hamilton. Jamie loves architecture and Rosanne loves to be by the water. (Their first date was by Toronto’s Harbour Front and their sweet proposal was by Humber Bay Park - their story was truly love by the waters.) Dundurn Castle was absolutely perfect for them! Her makeup artist, Fiona Man, did such a great job in bringing out the natural beauty of Rosanne with the perfect soft makeup palette. Rosanne wore a chic satin dress and Jamie was in a semi-formal attire - they both looked stunning! The sun had set at such the perfect time where we were able to capture so romantic photos for these sweethearts! We had such a great time with them. Rosanne has the cutest laugh as Jamie was so good at making her giggle. It gave me butterflies when we captured their pure, long, destined love! They were so so so cute together! Rosanne and Jamie, thank you for having document this stage for you. We so look forward to your big day in a few months times!
