Renée + Imran : Guelph Engagement

Thursday, June 30th, 2011

Renée and Imran both went to the University of Guelph. At different times. Imran was finishing up and off traveling when Renée started her undergrad year. Both, not native to Guelph, had come for their undergrad degrees, left, and at some point or another with short detours to Toronto, ended back in Guelph. Their paths were fated to cross as a mutual friend introduced the two and the rest was history.

I met up with Renée and Imran in Guelph (where else?!) for their engagement session. I’m always super excited to shoot sessions outside of Toronto… unfamiliar locations are always a nice challenge and gets me pumped for the possibilities! It also doesn’t hurt that Renée and Imran were uber-fun in front of the camera. Loved the sweet moments of laughter and giddiness that came with this session.

Renée and Imran, thank you so much for letting me capture the beauty of your relationship. You deserve everything that is wonderful in life and I hope your wedding in August is absolutely stunning.

Much love, Jenne.

Happy long weekend!

Stacey + Todd : Distillery Engagement

Tuesday, June 28th, 2011

They had known each other for a long while. Stacey was attending Ohio State, rockin’ it on the volleyball court, and Todd would come down with Stacey’s brother and a group of guys to watch some of her games. Nothing quite happened then… he was just one of the guys. It was when Stacey came back home from OSU that they started seeing more of each other on a regular basis. Connections were made and their relationship grew into something more.

It’s always great to witness the different personalities of my clients during their photo sessions. It’s like reaching in to a black velvet bag blindfolded. You never quite know what you’ll get but you know it’s going to be good. Brilliant smiles to smoldering looks (yeah, you read that right… I said smoldering). Stacey and Todd definitely brought their A game. And the bond that they shared was evident from the moment I put the camera up to my eye. Two souls destined to be together. No distance could ever come between that.

Stacey and Todd, it was incredible getting to know you both just a little bit more. I’m super stoked to be documenting your wedding later this fall and capturing so many more memories for you.

Much love, Jenne.

Did I not say smoldering?!

Both of you… gorgeous.

Auburn + Steve : Engagement

Sunday, June 12th, 2011

They met for the very first time at The Whistling Walrus Pub. Not unlike a plot from a movie, Auburn was invited to go out with a friend of hers… she wasn’t really feeling it. It was a good thing she was finally convinced to go. That was the night she met Steve. They talked for hours and have never stopped talking since.

For Auburn and Steve’s engagement session, they took me back to the pub where they first met. Purely by chance, the table where their first conversation drew out into the late night was available and we took full advantage of that. As soon as they sat down, there was never a moment that lacked in dialogue, a touch or even the briefest of looks between them. And rest assured, there was plenty of laughter!

Auburn and Steve, I’m really looking forward to documenting your wedding this July. Thank you for letting me get to know a little bit more of who you are… two truly warm and classy individuals who are perfectly suited for each other.

Oh, and I need to send a big hug over to Genevieve, who happens to be Steve’s cousin and amazing wedding coordinator, for introducing me to Auburn and Steve!

Love & hugs, Jenne.

You know it’s gonna be a good one when you start it off with a pint of Keith’s!

Luurrrve those shoes!

Absolutely stunning.
