Anas + Haya | Anniversary Love Session in Amman, Jordan

It's not every day you get the opportunity to photograph a couple on top of the mountains half-way across the world!  But when I connected with Haya during my short stay in Amman, Jordan a few weeks ago, we were able to make this beautiful anniversary session come to life.

The Lemonade Files 01: Nanjing Cabbies

We had two hours to get out of Nanjing -- a concrete jungle of 8 million people on China's east coast. We needed a cab to get us and our gajizzlion bags to the train station, while also trying to communicate to our driver where to go. Several meltdowns later (from all of else including our cab driver), we got to our train in the nick of time.

Steve thought she was the prettiest girl in the room.  With her witty sense of humour and vivacious laugh, he knew he had to get to know her as she sat down next to him during their acting class.  They soon found out that they shared many loves.  Acting, teaching, history, a yearning for meaningful and lasting relationships and each other.

Ottawa Boat Cruise Nautical Wedding | Hanan + Said

Hanan got ready at her parent's place surrounded by beautiful pink roses from her mother's garden.  She had such thoughtful cufflinks made for her fiance - now husband - Said, engraved with the words 'happiness' and 'kindness', which is what 'Hanan' and 'Said' mean in Arabic.  You two are indeed the kindness people I've ever met, and it showed in the amount of love and happiness overflowing from your family and friends as they watched you two tie the knot at your wedding last weekend.
