Danielle & David’s engagement session – MPH Photography – Toronto

Thursday, February 23rd, 2012

I have known Danielle for years, and had the pleasure of photographing her with her niece years ago and then I also photographed her sister as well, so I was more than thrilled when she contacted me and asked me to photograph her wedding in June.

Besides being beautiful inside and out, Danielle is a cute and sweet and funny girl and her and David are so adorable together and we had so much fun during their e-session. We had to postpone it a couple of times due to wether and then when we finally met, it wasn’t the best weather as it was wet snow that kept falling, but eventually it stopped and the sun even came out at the end.

We drove around downtown Toronto and stopped at a few spots and we had so much fun. At the end we went to a new skating rink with the skyline as the background and it was beautiful, even though the ice rink wasn’t skatable it was still pretty and we made the best of it and Danielle even wore heels on the ice.

These two are so wonderful and I can’t wait for their big day in June, I know it will be an amazing wedding.

Thanks again Danielle and David, we had such a wonderful time with you and are so looking forward to your wedding day, but for now we hope you enjoy the sneak peek from your e-session.

p.s.  I may have to add some more images soon as there were just so many that I loved… :)

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

The Friendly Photographer

Friday, January 13th, 2012

Just want to wish everyone a Happy new year. This year will be a little different for MPH Photography since we are having a baby girl in the beginning of May and I’m cutting down my sessions and only going to do a few every month, so for anyone who wants a session done this year, now is the time to contact me before all the spots are filled up.

In the meantime, I will be posting more about my family and my goal is to spend as much time as I can with them in 2012.

I have been meaning to post about a site that I love and have been featured on. The site was created by Emily Krbec, a fellow photographer friend of mine whose goal it is to celebrate and showcase fellow local photographers, she believes that us photographers should learn from each other and share our work, rather than be worried about who our competition is and I think she’s right. It would only make us stronger if we band together and join forces and share our work and our ideas and concepts and how we run our businesses and then we can all grow together and take photography to another level.

Here is a session I did with  Heather that was featured on their site:

and here is an image from that session as well. If you wish to check out the original post I made for my blog  just click here http://mphphotography.net/blog/2011/05/heather-mph-photography-toronto/

I’m also honoured that one of my images is featured on their front page on the slideshow.

Lorraine & Carm & Emily & Grace – day at the beach – MPH Photography – Toronto

Wednesday, October 5th, 2011

I’ve know this family for many years now and am so happy that their daughter is in the same grade and same school as our son as their friendship is what brought us together.

Lorraine and Carm, have become really good friends over the years and so this session was special and I wanted to make sure every shot was wonderful, I actually put a bit more pressure on myself than usual as I really wanted to do a great job, I always do.

We tried a couple of times to set a date, but with the weather the way it was, we needed to postpone a couple of times. Finally on this day, it was beautiful, but just a bit windy. I think it turned out to be a really nice day, and the Scatterelli family spend some time at the beach enjoying each other and I was the one fortunate enough to be there to capture their day together. It was alot of fun, and we all had such a nice time, and think we managed to get a few great shots of this precious family.

Lorraine and Carm, I hope you love these, as much as we love you guys. Thanks for being such wonderful friends, and hope you enjoy your sneak peek.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Nikki’s Family – MPH Photography – Toronto

Tuesday, September 27th, 2011

Nikki has been my go to cake lady for a while now. Wether its for a birthday, a shower, an anniversary, she outdoes herself every time and each cake is more spectacular than the last. She is definitely an artist and takes such time and such care with each cake, she’s magical at what she does, and her artistry and passion for making beautiful cakes is simply amazing, and I for one appreciate and just love her work. The detail she puts in every cake is incredible and leaves everyone’s mouths left wide open in amazement. If you want an amazing cake that your family and friends will never forget, then go to Nikki from Krazy Kakes, and I recommend the caramel filling, its one of our faves.

I finally had the chance to photograph Nikki and her family and I knew she was nervous but within minutes I think we showed her and Adam and the girls just how much fun a photo shoot can actually be and definitely nothing to be nervous about. We spent a lovely afternoon at High park and it was the perfect day out, one of the last few days before the cold crisp air gets here. There were beautiful colours everywhere and although I know Nikki loves black and white, I can’t help but show most of these in colour, you’ll see why below.

Nikki and Adam and Cassie and Jessica, thanks for being so much fun, it was a lovely session and I hope you enjoy your sneak peek.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

I have to add here, that there is a squirrel beside Adam’s head, I could have taken him out of the shot in PS but I thought he was cute. Looking at it again, it almost looks as if the squirrel is taking a little bite out of Adam’s head,lol.

 

 

 

 

 

 

Sonny’s Family session – MPH Photography – Toronto

Monday, August 15th, 2011

I met this lovely family last Friday and we really had a great time during this session. Sonny and Tina have 2 beautiful daughters, Julia and Nikki and they were so cute and adorable and the little one (Nikki) had me laughing the whole time, especially when she put her foot up during the one family shot, I just fell in love with her. Julia was eye candy for my camera, a very pretty girl and I still can’t believe she’s only 13!!!

Beautiful parents and beautiful girls, it was great watching Julia with her little sister and capturing them together, you can see how much they love each other. I am sure they will always be very close and I know they’ll always be each other’s best friend.

Sonny is a kung fu master, and I should have made him show me some moves but we got carried away taking pictures, so perhaps another time. Tina is so sweet pretty and I can see where her girls get their beauty from,lol.

Thanks Sonny and Tina for allowing me to capture your family and spend some time with you all. I hope you enjoy your sneak peek.
