Kristen & Louie | Toronto Ward's Island Engagement

Kristen and Louie’s love story began in the summer of 2015, when the two gum lovers found each other through online dating platform. On their first date at a café, Louie surprised Kristen with a pack of her favorite gum, strawberry Bubblicious. It was soon clear to them that something special had sparked, as they felt a strong connection with each other ever since their second date. Soon they started dating and six years later, they got engaged!

Kristen and Louie moved into their first home together in August 2021. Louie planned his proposal on their first night there, which was also the six-year anniversary of their first date. That evening, he asked Kristen out for dinner at a restaurant near their new place. Although this had initially made Kristen suspicious, Louie brushed away her sharp intuition by insisting the ring wasn’t ready yet. In reality, he had the evening all planned out! On a romantic post-dinner walk to the lake, in full view of the city’s beautiful skyline, he proposed. To top off the already magical night, when the happy couple returned to the house, Kristen’s parents and godparents launched a surprise celebration for them with champagne.

Kristen and Louie are a committed, fun, loving couple who share many delightful hobbies. They love British mystery shows and trivia games, as well as cooking and baking together. They enjoy walks near the lake and visits to small towns, which explains the couple’s choice of location for this engagement shoot! Ward Island is not only Kristen’s favorite island, but also a place filled with fond memories of the couple.

Thank you for bringing us along to the island that means so much to you. We had so much fun capturing the sweet moments of this absolutely adorable couple! You can almost see their joy oozing out of these photos. The way they looked at each other, their laugh, the pure bliss they basked in, filled the air with bubbly sweetness like a strawberry Bubblicious. We are sure that their love will only grow sweeter in the years to come. We are so happy for you, Kristen and Louie, and we can’t wait to join you on your wedding day!

Fiona & William | Cheery Waterfront & Sugar Beach Engagement

Walking down hand-in-hand by the waterfront, these two lovebirds were absolutely adorable to work with. Fiona and William started off their love story in high school but not as sweethearts. The two had such a natural connection that led them to talk for hours about anything and everything. They started off as friends that would do practically everything together be it shopping, eating out, or grabbing bubble tea to a couple that supported each other through patience, love, and laughter.

Originally, we wanted to take photos with the cherry blossoms but mother nature took us to the waves and sand of the waterfront in Toronto. With the pink umbrellas of Sugar Beach and the docks at Polson Pier, Fiona and William took charge of the shoot with their own charm, creating a space for themselves that embraced the moment. Not to mention the shoes! Fiona rocked a pair of Converse that had calligraphy written with their wedding date and “Mrs. Zhou” on the side. Thank you for letting us have just as much fun with your photoshoot as you did being in each other’s arms! We’re excited to see how fun and lovable your wedding will be!
