OMG! Who is that?!

In our very humble opinion, blogging is about expressing yourself and having fun (take a look at our picture!) Actually, that's what we think weddings should be too - an opportunity to express yourself and your love for each other and to ensure that your family and friends are having the best time! While our photojournalistic approach often means we are out-of-sight and out-of-mind, when it comes to the "family pictures" and our stunning dramatic poses, we are all about it being fun, comfortable and painless!

Meg + Rob | A wedding at Gladstone Hotel | Sneak Peek

If you’d like an introduction to Meg + Rob, you need look no further than their wonderful ENGAGEMENT SHOOT

This funky couple, despite being obvious lovers of the great outdoors, decided to have their wedding at the Gladstone Hotel, nestled in Toronto’s trendy Queen St West area. Adding to the uniqueness of this event is Rob’s Scottish background - yes kilts and single malt scotch were featured prominently throughout the day! As if planning a wedding is not hard enough - Meg and Rob recently moved to Calgary so “to the rescue” came Event Planner Machel Reeves of Machel Reeves Special Events. Every cool little detail of the wedding was perfectly complimentary to the coolness that is the Gladstone Hotel - awesome job Machel!

As is becoming more and more common, Meg + Rob decided to have a “first look” or “reveal” before the ceremony so that they could have plenty of time for photos before the actual ceremony (plus you get the added bonus of more time with your guests right after the ceremony)! We were commissioned with the task of finding the appropriate place for this dramatic first meeting - the Art Bar within the Gladstone Hotel was perfect. That it had paintings of forest scenes and canoes was fateful.

Last but not least, we must say that Meg+Rob handled themselves marvelously. There was massive construction all along Queen St, a nip in the air, this strange “Black Magic” that seemed to affect many of the the men (Black Magic scotch in the flasks!) not too mentioned having to fly in and out of the city over a very busy weekend. Meg, Rob, what can we say…You’re Marvelous! (add Billy Crystal accent)

Have an awesome honeymoon and make sure you ring us when you’re back - there’s like a bagillion more photos to show you! :)

Humongous hugs,
Heidi + Steve
