I really believe that the world works in such a way that all things happen for a reason. When I met with Sarah and David in Toronto for their engagement session on Toronto Island and heard their story (which gave me goose bumps!) this belief was once again affirmed for me. These two amazing people, who are from two different continents, met up on a whole other continent— there is definitely no question that there are bigger forces at play in this world.
As a tradition on my blog, I always invite my couples to share their own story with me (rather than me trying to retell it!) Allowing others to share on my blog is one of my joys, everyone has a story to tell and being able to share it here is a great privilege.
It started before we met, when we independently decided to move to Melbourne, Australia for work. Dave arrived in July and I arrived in March, through a group of mutual friends we met at a Chinese Restaurant. It didn’t take long for Dave to ask me out for a coffee. To get to know one another we spent time exploring Melbourne, sharing stories of who we are, and events that got us to Australia. Traveling has been a big part of our relationship, getting to explore new places together and be able to create memories and experiences is something that we will always cherish.
What we are looking forward to the most is celebrating the love we have for each other and seeing each other’s smile as we walk down the aisle!
Once and a while I get to meet some truly incredible people and these two definitely are. Community and exploring the world is at the heart of what they believe in. And so when we were getting to know one another as we waited for the ferry to head over to Ward’s Island, I knew our session was going to be incredible!
I’m going to let the pictures tell the words to how awesome this session was! Sarah and David thank you once again for allowing me into your lives and I cannot wait to hang out with you in Toronto in a few weeks as you say your I Do’s!
For more information about engagement sessions or wedding day coverage, please send me a message here! I’d love to hear from you (and I’d LOVE to shoot on Toronto Island again- its pretty much a dream!)
