I am so looking forward to photographing Nina and John’s wedding this September at the Renaissance! I had so much fun shooting their engagement session yesterday.. they are so easy going and relaxed which makes it super easy to get great photos of them together. 

They are both pilots so we thought it would be fun to stop by the airport and get a few shots with the planes.. I’m so glad we did because we got some really great shots!

Nina and John thanks for such a fun session, I can’t wait to do it all over again in September!

Enjoy your sneak peeks :)

Meghan Littlewood: Naomi you are incredible. Thank you for helping us to capture these memories with such elegance. These pictures are worth more than anything in the world to us. From the bottom of our hearts - Thank you. Meghan & Shawn

Jo-ann Littlewood (MOB): Thank you Naomi for capturing one of the most memorable days of our lives. As you know, Meghan's dad (my husband) passed away just two weeks later so these pictures are so very precious to us all. How lucky are we to have had you with us on that beautiful day.

It was a pleasure to photograph Gina and Curtis’s wedding for many reasons, but the one thing that stood out most was how absolutely undeniably perfect they are for each other! There is nothing better than watching best friends become husband and wife, and if you saw their engagement photos you would’ve read that they were inseparable best friends for 5 years before they became a couple. This made them even more fun to photograph because they are SO comfortable around each other. Even the thunderstorms couldn’t keep the smiles off their faces.. and they were such troopers to shoot through the rain with me! I just adore a couple who will do anything for great photos :)

Their ceremony and reception was held at the beautiful new Renaissance Wedding Venue in Kingston. The details were fabulous, the dinner was absolutely delicious and they danced long into the night with their family and friends. 

Thank you Gina and Curtis for being so incredibly wonderful to work with.. have an AMAZING time in Jamaica!!

Sarah showed up for youth group and got an insta-crush on her hot new youth group leader. Andrew, completely oblivious to what was going on (surprised?) went on with his life as normal while Sarah shamelessly flirted with him trying to get his attention. Little did Andrew know his life was about to change. Sarah headed off to the University Of Ottawa, and one fateful night when Andrew and his friends went on a road trip to Ottawa, he and Sarah met at a local bar. This time, the sparks flew, and Andrew fell for Sarah… and he fell hard. And everyone (and I mean EVERYONE) around him knew just how crazy in love he was with her. How, you might ask? Let me tell you.. I was there. Every time he opened his mouth, he was babbling lovely things about Sarah.. how beautiful she is, how smart she is, how funny she is, how she is all he needs.. (which is all true) but we knew it was REALLY bad when he started missing hockey games to hang out with her :)

Either way, Sarah and Andrew are completely perfect for each other and I know they will have a beautiful life full of happiness, laughter, and babies.. lots and lots of babies :) lol

I won’t be photographing their wedding because I’m going as a guest, but I can’t wait for their wedding in September and seeing them on the happiest day of their lives.

Thanks for the fun session you guys, I had a blast, and I hope you enjoy your sneak peeks!!

Emily: these are all simply stunning! I'm loving the light - loving the expression and just all around loving your work! Naomi, you are incredibly talented...

shawnreeder: Naomi, awesome session!!! You rock!!

Eileen Broderick: These are GORGEOUS! I love how you shoot and your images are always so crisp and the colors so vibrant. This couple is so cute and her eyes are amazing! Love these. Love the 2 pinkies hooked. I just may have to try that... : )

Susan Solo: Aw! These are great! The two tight headshots of Sarah and Andrew made me stop and stare. Beautiful! And I also LOVE the hooked pinkies! Too too cute.

This family has got to be one of the cutest families ever!! I had so much fun shooting their session. They are all so photogenic, and despite Kelly warning me that Gracie is super shy and probably wouldn’t look at me, I think she secretly loved getting her photo taken :) I caught her looking at me and flashing a smile a few times, which of course makes for great photos. Cash is one of the sweetest kids ever and I get warm and fuzzies just thinking about him! He was so content to just sit in the grass and soak up everything around him. My favorite thing about him is when he flashes his great big smile to show off his one little bottom tooth :)

Thanks you guys for the awesome session, I hope you enjoy your sneak peeks! :)

She sure doesn’t look too shy, does she ;)

I am so in love with this shot. I think it perfectly shows the relationship between a girl and her dad at this age. So trusting, and wanting him to follow her absolutely wherever she goes…
