Go Go Doggy!

by

The imajing family has expanded!  I’m happy to announce that my newest baby, or should I say puppy, is Go Go Doggy Photo.  As you know I have two big mutts running around this house alongside my cats and toddler and for the longest time they were my photographic muses/most available models.

My daughter Amira is babbling up a storm now at 16 months old, but one of her first recognizable words was ‘go-go’ which means doggy in Mandarin.  So in tribute to my pups, my baby and my peeps, Go Go Doggy Photo is the official name and website to something I have been doing for fun all along.  Please sit, stay and have a visit on the new site and let me know what you think!

Congratulations Gaby & Jeff!

Congratulations to Gaby and Jeff!  It was my pleasure to photograph your wedding yesterday and to be a witness to your beautiful day.

It was also fun to hear it confirmed in all the wedding speeches what I had suspected about Gaby after our engagement shoot – that she is indeed the most organized person you might ever meet!  The wedding ceremony and reception was held at Le Jardin in Woodbridge, Ontario and offered a great place from start to finish.  A personal highlight was photographing the mariachi band that played during dinner.  Not only was the band great, but they sang what I can only assume are some old favourites, which encouraged some of the wedding guests to join right in the singing!

Katherine and Beth’s engagement shoot around the woods of Wychwood

by

Katherine and Beth are a couple who hold a special place in the heart for me and my husband Fred.  Katherine (in the red shirt), is our minister at St. Matthew’s United Church and married us over three years ago.  We checked out the church out of total convenience (it is literally a stone’s throw from our house) but decided to continue going because we love the way Katherine runs the service.  We knew for sure we really liked Katherine when she jumped at the opportunity to be a part of our rather unconventional surprise wedding.

So when Katherine met Beth about a year and a half ago we were really happy for her because we saw instantly how our always cheerful minister gained an extra depth to her happiness.  Needless to say I was thrilled when I was asked to be the photographer for their upcoming November wedding.

Here are a few of our favourites from our recent engagement shoot.  All the photos below were taken in the beautiful enclave of Wychwood Park.

Congratulations Charlotte & Jeanette!

Congratulations to Charlotte and Jeanette!

The celebration, on the coveted 10-10-10 wedding date was an intimate affair set entirely in the University room of the Park Hyatt.  I was among the sixteen other people in the room witnessing the love as Charlotte and Jeanette sealed their lifelong commitment to each other with their vows.  It doesn’t matter how many times I’ve heard it or how the wording may vary, but I am moved each time I hear wedding vows – especially after I have been married myself.  It was special to see Katherine, the same minister who married me and Fred, preside over today’s ceremony.

Thank you for choosing me to document the details of your wedding day.
