Vanessa, Will, and I scheduled our engagement portrait session at least 4 times before this one happened. I even managed to get to their door for one of those cancellations and once again mother nature intervened. Finally, at 6:30am, bleary eyed, and not nearly as chipper as we were all used to being, we … Read More

Engagement Portraits in Toronto with Diana & Derek
[fb_button] Last Monday I had the pleasure of photographing engagement portraits in Toronto with Diana and Derek. This was a particularly fun shoot for me since Diana was one of my best photography assistants way back in 2005 (that’s right, pre-iPhone!) and I will be photographing their wedding in September. Our shoot began early in … Read More
Kristen & Will’s Engagement…
[fb_button] Kristen & Will are getting married this coming February so it was great to get out while it’s warm and spend a very early morning showing these two how frigging cute they are. Not only did the shoot turn out great but I was hand delivered a hand made and incredibly fresh cupcake when the … Read More

Catching up…
It has been a crazy winter both at home and at work so I have let a few shoots slip through the blogging net. Here is my attempt at catching up. Included are wedding, portrait, baby, and even a commercial shoot.
Christine & Nick’s Engagement Shoot in the Byward Market
INTRODUCING JULIE YOUNG TO PHOTOVANBEEK! Awhile back I was sitting in my studio, minding my own business (quite literally) and an email popped into my inbox. I knew the name “Julie Young” quite well since we both started shooting weddings around the same time and I had always enjoyed her work. Julie was asking if … Read More
A Christmas Engagement
I don’t normally do this but I couldn’t resist the Christmas connection and the romance of this shoot (yes I said romance). I was contacted a few weeks ago about photographing the actual engagement of a couple on Christmas Eve. I wasn’t able to shoot on that night so when I was asked to shoot … Read More
Sophie & Jean Engaged in Montebello
On a beautiful Fall afternoon, Sophie, Jean & I took a drive out to Montebello to the spot where they actually got engaged. Next September they will tie the knot closer to Ottawa and it will be great.
