Oliver got pretty excited for Christmas this year and after last year’s ice storm debacle, he had every right to be. So, when Dana and I found him one night in bed, cuddled up with his little brother Duckie, wearing his Santa hat, it just made sense to document the moment with my camera. One […]

Oliver and I took a trip up to visit my parents and we celebrated Oliver’s birthday with them. They had the usual wonderful fare that they do: a great dinner, cake and birthday presents for Oliver. They are so thoughtful and always go above and beyond when celebrating our birthdays. It certainly doesn’t hurt that […]

Oliver and I had a little fun making photographs of each other playing in the piles of leaves. It’s always a joy to get outside and play with Oliver in any capacity, but on this day, we really enjoyed ourselves a little too much. We were belly-laughing at how silly each other looked falling into […]

My cousin Jen married her fiancé Travis in September at the Miller Lash House in Toronto Ontario. This is my second cousin to get married this year! The wedding and ceremony were both gorgeous but unfortunately, the weather was a bit on the chilly side. With both the ceremony and the reception taking place outside, […]

Oliver started Grade One this year. It’s a big moment in any parents life because their son or daughter is now fully in the school system. Before you know it, he’ll be in high school (or so I’m told), life moves that quickly. So like any good parent (especially one who is a photographer), I […]

Wasaga Beach. You either love it (for the crowds; the cool beach atmosphere; the “strip;” and the loud music) or you hate it (for the crowds; the cool beach atmosphere; the “strip;” and the loud music). Fortunately for us, the Saturday that we picked to go to Wasaga Beach this year was short on pompous, […]

On his last day of school the kids were asked what they wanted to be when they grew up. Oliver went for the classic response (of course). Then Oliver started his summer vacation off right! Cheers! t.

Back in June we decided it was time to clear out some of the junk old stuff we had in the basement and have a yard sale. Oliver came up with the idea that he wanted to hold a Lemonade Stand at the same time. Dana created a little cheat sheet of what change would […]

Oliver’s favourite cousin Julia had her 1st Communion a little while back. Being the good Uncle I am, I brought my Fuji X-E2 and a couple of lenses and took some photos for her. Not being an overly religious family, it’s interesting to attend events like this and see what they are all about. Congratulations […]

My cousin Shelley married her longtime boyfriend/fiancé in a beautiful ceremony in midtown Toronto. The reception was held at Graydon Hall Manor in East Toronto. This was the perfect opportunity for us to get all dressed up and enjoy the day with our family. It was also the perfect day to make sure we got […]

Angry Bird’s Star Wars played a huge role in our family for quite some time. Oliver loved the game on the iPad so much and we’d slowly acquire new characters and figurines for him so he could…

Oliver went through a phase recently where he wanted to create Play Doh models of all the characters he’s grown to know and love. On this particular day, he was creating models of Angry Birds Rio characters. It is so much fun to see your son be creative and even better to be able to […]

It’s no secret that Oliver loves his treats. He doesn’t have more than the next kid but on some days, it feels like that’s all he’s eaten. So when Oliver’s mouth and lips turned blue from eating a lolly pop, and stayed blue for most of the day – I couldn’t help but make a […]

Oliver and I had a blast going to the Toronto International Autoshow a couple of years ago and we decided to make another trip this year. I am a sucker for looking at all the new models of vehicles they have out and Oliver loves to climb in and out of all the cars/trucks/SUVs he […]

Oliver’s school had a Valentine’s Day dance for parents and their children. Oliver was super excited to go because his girlfriend Lily was going to be there. So, we went with Oliver and sure enough, things didn’t play out the way Oliver would have liked. Lily ended up not being able to make it and […]

As you can tell by now from this blog, Oliver and I goof around with the camera quite often. Whether it be one of our lazy Sunday mornings or another day, we like to make photographs of each other. On this day, we decided to take a couple photos of his Disney Infinity characters, Mr. […]

Dana is training to be an Interior Decorator and she really wanted to go to the Toronto Interior Design show this year. So we packed up the car and all three of us went to the Metro Toronto Convention Centre to check things out. It was great because the show had something for everyone. I […]
