The ceremony took place in Casa Loma’s conservatory, surrounded by family and friends who clearly adored this couple. With that many loved ones in the room, the teary-eyed moments came easily. There wasn’t a dry eye in sight, and we made sure to catch every one of them. After the ceremony, we walked just down the road to Spadina Museum for bridal party portraits, and the grounds delivered stunning shot after stunning shot. With our outdoor permit in hand, we had the freedom to explore the property and found the perfect pocket of shade for more off-camera flash work. It’s a good reminder of something we think about on every wedding day, sometimes the job is finding the right light, and sometimes it’s making our own. At Spadina, we got to do both by leaning into the natural shade the grounds offered, then layering in flash to shape the portraits exactly how we envisioned them.
Following such an emotional, heartfelt ceremony, we’d expect nothing less than an extravagant Sofreh to follow and Hazelton Manor delivered. The room decor, designed by Petals and Pearls and Henna Florist, was nothing short of breathtaking, setting the stage for a reception that matched the warmth and joy of the day before it. As the evening went on, the dance floor came alive. There’s nothing we love more as photographers than a crowd that welcomes the camera and gives us all the energy in return, and Mehrnaz and Andre’s guests brought exactly that. Full dance floor, full hearts, full vibes.
Congratulations, Mehrnaz and Andre. Thank you for letting us be part of your story.
