Love has many faces. Too many to count perhaps. One that you don’t see too often these days is that of strength. In a world of McRelationships where tempers run high and patience runs low, infatuation trumps grace, and inconvenience is repugnant, strength is a seldom voiced fable.
In such a world, live Numesh and Harvinder. In the three days we covered their wedding, we witnessed a bond truly worthy of being called love.
We are extremely happy to be sharing our first highlights video for toronto wedding featuring this amazing couple. Enjoy!

Here is the second part of Uroos and Khalid’s wedding in Toronto. We started the day off with Shirley Wu and the team getting Uroos ready for the big day. Playing a very important role and providing much needed nutrition to keep the bride on her feet the rest of the day were McD’s french fries. We got some amazing shots of the bride and groom in the wedding hall. We really like the way the black and whites turned out. Uroos has a very filmy look about her, and the black and whites totally emphasize her features. Decor was done by Perfect Setting once again. Following the burst of colors at the mehndi, the wedding day was an elegant mix of white and gold with hints of light pink.
Today we are sharing Uroos and Khalid’s Moroccan Inspired Mehndi that we covered in December of 2011 in Toronto. We’ve been looking forward to posting this wedding ever since we shot it. You may recognize Uroos and Khalid from their engagement shoot video we shot last fall. This was followed by a three day wedding extravaganza including this Mehndi, followed by a Shaadi and Valima a week later. We simply couldn’t combine these into one post. Our typical posts comprise of about 20 shots. Our post today of this Moroccan themed delicacy is close to 50 pictures alone. We simply couldn’t resist and shortlisting the photos for our blog was a task on its own.
Naphisha from Perfect Setting really outdid herself in creating a spectacular ambience and environment. And of course most of the night was spent dancing away to the tunes and live dhol beats courtesy of Dhol Toronto.
Just as we were wrapping up for the night, Uroos’ brother Osama who we had heard was actively responsible for choreographing a lot of the dance sequences, but was a little hesitant on letting it loose on the dance floor for personal reasons, finally gave in and broke out into an impromptu dance sequence. I quickly grabbed the first camera I could get my hands on and got a few shots of Osama showing everyone how its really done before something went wrong at the DJ booth and the song ended preemptively. However short it may have been, it was enough to move Uroos to tears and I got some nice emo moments between the brother, the bride and the groom.
Enjoy and stay tuned for their wedding photos next!
Been a while since we posted on the blog. Been busy with editing and life in general. Here is an engagement shoot we did in Yorkville area followed by High Park in Toronto of Nadia and Ovais. It was also featured on a wedding blog some time back that you can see here. Enjoy!
When Judy emailed me saying she has moved to Toronto from Ottawa with family, I was super excited and happy. We had done Judy’s two beautiful kids Sean and Sarah’s portraits back in 2009 in Ottawa. Judy gets her kids’ portraits done every winter in time for Christmas, so she can give them out to her close family and also update the picture frames around the house. Judy told me that last year she wanted to get the pictures done, but because she liked the portraits we did so much the previous year, and we weren’t in Ottawa anymore, she just didn’t bother getting them done! As luck would have it, we all reconvened back in Toronto and Judy asked us if we would come out and do the kids portraits again this year. Things were crazy busy with little Afroz and the wedding season, but we really wanted to see the kids and definitely get them their yearly pictures this year. So we picked a date, packed up and drove down to Judy’s beautiful house on the Beaches. We spent a couple of hours with the kids taking their pictures on the beach and in their rooms. We simply love how the pictures turned, and hope they like them too!
