Just this past June I went out to work 15 times. 15 days out working is a lot, especially because I still need to edited everything, have meetings, design albums, answer emails, write emails, answer phone calls, etc.
I won't lie: during this time of the year I'm a bit exhausted and the blog is not a priority at all, however I could not skip this photo shoot for many reasons: 1. this was the first time I shot in Owen Sound and this city is truly amazing! 2. I absolutely adored working with this couple - they were super sweet and a lot of fun 3. This photo you see above got A LOT of Facebook likes in a single day so I couldn't leave it out of my website.
Let me share a few of my favorites from that afternoon with you. We actually started at the beautiful Morland Place (can't wait to have the opportunity to shoot a wedding over there!), then we headed to Indian Falls.
I can't really write much because I do have a lot of clients waiting to view their photos (and I'm really sorry I'm not doing sneak peeks for all photo shoots during this summer), but I want to thank Angela and Jevon for the amazing afternoon! Thank you guys so much for taking me to all these gorgeous locations and I really can't wait to shoot your wedding at Lora Bay next year. :)

May and June have been incredibly busy. Just last week I had Kristine and Télcio's photoshoot (exactly a week ago!), a Bat Mitzvah service the next day, a wedding on Saturday and a Bat Mitzvah party on Sunday! The other days? Using to edit all the photo shoots and weddings from two, three weeks before. My friends tell me they wish they could "only work on weekends", but I'm pretty sure I work more than most of them. ;)
Weather hasn't been that great so we're also having lots of rescheduling, but I was so glad I was able to work with Kristine and Télcio last Wednesday. I'm completely in love with this photo session - I could literally post all photos from this shoot.
Kristine and Télcio are from Brazil and were actually in their honeymoon when these photos were taken. A friend of theirs had shot a maternity photo shoot with me and told them about my work. They only had one week left here in Canada, I didn't have that many days available, it was raining almost every single day, but thankfully weather decided to cooperate on one of the few days we were both available.
The sunshine last Wednesday was just gorgeous!! Kristine decided to wear the wedding dress that belonged to her mom and honestly, that made the photos even more special! Let me share some of my favorites with you. :)
Kristine and Télcio, congrats on your wedding and thanks so much for letting me capture such a special moment in your lives. ♥

Let me tell you something: different from what you read on every wedding photographer's "About Me", I never dreamed of becoming a professional photographer. When I was a little girl I wanted to be writer - I used to write a lot when I was 6-7 thinking that maybe I would get those "books" published one day. Then I became a teenager and completely forgot about it.
Once I had to choose a major in University, I picked Japanese. Why? Don't ask me, I had no idea what I was doing career wise. Some months later, I decided to study IT. Yes, I have a bachelor's degree in Computer Science. I worked many, many years as a web programmer and although I was pretty good at it, I never really loved that career.
Photography was always there, ever since I was a kid - I used to take millions of photos and had a pretty popular Fotolog. People would tell me how talented I was, however I never thought of earning a living out of that.
If you asked me what was my dream job in my early 20s, I'd say working at Disney World. Doing whatever. Just wanted to be at Magic Kingdom every single day of my life. To this day I love that place and I basically work to support my Disney addiction. Anyways... working at Disney World was not doable for many obvious reasons. However, I have to admit: I'm happy doing this. Really happy. Even though it was never a "dream" I was pursuing. Capturing milestones in people's lives is wonderful and I'm aware of how lucky I am to be able to make a decent living out of photography.
I mentioned Disney World because that was where I got a call from Ashwin asking me if I was available to shoot their wedding day last month. I honestly thought he was joking since he called me in February - yes, February of THIS year. Turns out it wasn't a prank call. LOL
I worked with Anna about 5 years ago and I could not believe she still remembered me. Even though their wedding day was just a month away, they also wanted an engagement shoot (which you can view here. check it out later, it's definitely worth it!). We had the E-Session 4 (yes, FOUR) days before their wedding day.
In the end, everything turn out great - I loved their engagement shoot and can't even start on how I'm in love with every single picture from this wedding.
This was my first 2015 wedding and I could have not asked for a better couple. Be prepared: this will be a super long post. They had TWO ceremonies: an Indian one and a Polish one. The reception was so full of entertainment and great moments that it was hard to pick which ones were going to be here.
Enough talking - let me share some of my favorite moments with you!
Congrats, Anna and Ashwin! I had an amazing time working with you two! Wishing you a lifetime of happiness. ♥

Really happy to inform that my first batch of USB Flash Drives have arrived! Now, wedding clients can choose between receiving their photos on DVDs (usually a wedding gets around 3-4 DVDs) or on a single USB Flash Drive. They are so cute - just love them!! :)
For more info, please contact me at contact(a)yukinoda.com .
