I was very excited when one of my couples said their winter wedding is going to be at the famous Ice Hotel in Quebec. Hotel De Glace (the official French name) is located a short drive from Quebec City and adjacent to the Valcartier resort. Every winter the ice hotel is rebuilt from the ground up with new rooms, theme and designs. Everyone who...
A few photographs from a wedding photoshoot from NYC. I am not sure how to categorize this. Wedding? Engagement? Trash the Dress? Creative wedding session?

Beautiful Quebec City Persian wedding at Fairmont Le Chateau Frontenac. It’s always an immense pleasure to document weddings in the historic Quebec City.

Greek weddings always have a special place in my heart. I usually capture about 2-3 per year in Toronto and sometimes other parts of Canada and even USA. This was an absolutely humbling experience in some aspects of wedding photography. There were a few things that made the reception special for guests. Kids and adults loved a magician. When it...
