You will always be my sunshine.

Indian weddings are intense! No, seriously. Early mornings, multiple days, wardrobe changes, hundreds of guests. It’s a different animal, and I’m always excited to get the opportunity to capture it. That being said, I’m constantly amazed at how many similarities their are across all cultures and traditions. One of the cool things about shooting a lot of weddings is the unique perspective it allows. The celebration of love is a universal experience!
Bonus Video! Last year we shot a portrait film that was premiered at their reception:

Ashley is the biggest sweetheart you’ll ever meet. She and Dana had met and “dated” when they were younger which, as I understand, was mostly an excuse to watch WWF wrestling together (something forbidden in her house at the time). Years later they reconnected online and realized there was more to their relationship than Hulkamania and body slams. Their quirky mutual loves include quoting Home Alone and Trailer Park Boys, yelling at passers-by from car windows, and their extra-affectionate dog, Marley.
Jimmy+Donna // Portrait Film
It’s always fun to premiere a video in front of a big, invested, live audience. And that was the case this past Saturday at Jimmy and Donna’s Graydon Hall wedding in Toronto (wedding video coming soon!). They had spent a beautiful afternoon earlier this summer hopping around the area, getting ice cream, roller-blading, and revisiting a park with special meaning to them. I love the spontaneity and energy we found at Kenneth Parkette, something that’s hard to plan for and nearly impossible to force. Heading to the location was a last minute addition to the plan—it wasn’t scouted, and we had no idea what we’d find there—but it evolved into one of the main threads of their story.
