We Won Editor’s Choice Award 2015 From Two Bright Lights!

March 24 2015 Leave a Comment Categorized: Awards, Press

I am proud to announce that I have been awarded the Two Bright Lights Editor’s Choice Award for 2015. This is a real honour for me to be a Toronto award winning wedding photographer. My work had been selected to be featured 23 times last year! You can see all of our features listed in our Press section here.

Two Bright Lights has given this award to those whose “talent was continually recognized by the top print magazine, blog and ezine editors. Their hard work and commitment to getting published, places them among the top 5%, from a community made up of over 40,000 photographers and event professionals across 100 countries.”

I have to thank all my amazing clients who have worked with and trusted us to create the work to be considered to be featured in these top publications. In 2015, we were featured in the Bridal Guide, Bride Canada, Wedding Wire, MunaLuchi Bride, Aisle Perfect and even Wedding Essentials Magazine. These are all internationally recognized publications where our photos can be seen hundreds and even thousands of readers around the world! 

Getting published is a huge feat for us since this is our first full year in business! Having our work recognized internationally is a huge success for us.

Instagram post 2197539212006542490_2088877172 When I first became a wedding photographer, I was focused much focused on learning how to photograph bride and grooms - how to pose them, how to find good locations, how to find pretty light. But what came so naturally to me was to look for these special moments in between. The moments that are so fleeting and you wouldn't remember otherwise. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
I get so many clients who come back to me after a wedding and say "oh my gosh, I don't even remember that happening!" But because we have it photographed, they now have it encapsulated for the rest of their lives. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
It's a true skill in waiting around for these special moments and snapping it before it goes away. I describe it almost like safari hunting. You're always on the lookout. Always on the hunt. But when you get that magical one in million shot - it's so satisfying because these happy moments should be treasured forever. .⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Joelle and Ernest first met while at a common friend's house practising music for leading Worship for a Sunday service. After two years of dating, Ernest proposed on a trip to Niagara. As they were atop the Ferris Wheel overlooking Niagara Falls popped the question. So romantic! ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Their engagement session was just as romantic. We photographed in one of my fav spots in this city!⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
