When my awesome bride Sophie contacted me as a referral from a previous wedding I shot with a friend of hers, I was beyond ecstatic to capture her and Ben's special day. Their energy is enriched with contagious joy and love that can make your jaw hurt from smiling. But being welcomed to their big event wasn't all that I was excited about. In fact, Sophie and Ben had a special connection with the venue they selected beyond anything I could ever expect.
&nbsp;
Tapestry Hall, located in the scenic city of Cambridge Ontario, was the desired location of Sophie and Ben's wedding day. The hall is well known for their magical artistic display stretched along the ceiling called "Meander" - and it is said to be the largest living architectural sculpture in the world. But who would've known that one of the leading engineers to help bring renowned artist Philip Beesely's art to life then Sophie! My amazing bride was a part of the team who enabled such a masterpiece for visitors to pass under a sculpture that moves, lights up and makes sounds as it reacts to people passing below. It also reacts to temperature changes and casts an array of sparkling lights with those changes. The glee in all of our faces during this revelation was enough to make the day even more exciting!
&nbsp;
The day consisted of a heartwarming bridal dress reveal with friends, laughing in the rain with the groom's party, a peaceful Lutheran church ceremony, family portraits with bubbles, a wild and whacky wedding party photoshoot, sandwiches and waffles for dinner, and a boisterous Irish folk dance featuring most of the guests. It was a night to remember for a couple who left their footprint forever on Tapestry Hall's beautiful architecture forever.

<h1>A Photographer's Review of Tapestry Hall:</h1>
Stepping into the Tapestry Hall, the sheer grandeur of the place strikes you immediately. The space is big and beautiful, an expansive canvas for me as a photographer to paint my clients' love stories on. The way the sprawling area can comfortably accommodate over 400 guests without feeling overwhelming is nothing short of architectural brilliance.
&nbsp;
One feature that particularly catches my eye is the striking contrast between the dark walls and the golden lighting. This combination creates an atmosphere that's both warm and intimate, the perfect backdrop for timeless wedding photos.
&nbsp;
As a visual storyteller, I've always found architecture to be a thrilling element in my photos. The Tapestry Hall doesn't disappoint in this regard either. The beautiful architecture setup on the ceiling is a feast for the eyes. Shooting under this magnificent ceiling, I am able to create pictures that are not only aesthetically pleasing but also full of character and depth.
&nbsp;
The venue's design is where timeless elegance meets contemporary. It's a harmonious blend of the old and the new, making it the perfect setting for couples who wish to celebrate their love in a unique style.
&nbsp;
Another distinct advantage of the Tapestry Hall is its accessible parking. This might seem like a minor detail, but let me tell you, on a day as hectic as your wedding, easy parking can be a godsend for your guests.
&nbsp;
In conclusion, the Tapestry Hall, Cambridge Ontario is a remarkable wedding venue. It's not just about the aesthetics; it's about the feeling you get when you're there. It's about the way the light falls, the way the space feels, and the way the architecture lends itself to your story. From a photographer's perspective, it's a dream come true, offering endless opportunities to capture unforgettable moments. And as someone who loves to celebrate weird, wild, and wonderful love, I can't think of a better place to do so.

I received a message from Greg, an old friend of mine from many years past. To my surprise, he told me he was planning to propose to his long time partner Zsha, and needed my help to secretly capture the surprise proposal at Chinguacousy Park Brampton Ontario. To my excitement, I agreed to join in on the fun! With the help of my partner Jacob, a location scouting closest to the couple, some photo exchanges to pick the perfect spot for a surprise proposal at Chinguacousy Park Brampton, we got to work. Zsha was the funniest character. She loves having her photo taken at any moment. When Greg went down on one knee, Zsha immediately tried to pull out her phone to record the moment, not realizing that Greg had secretly hired me to capture the proposal the whole time. The suspense killed me when Greg stayed on one knee for over a minute. I actually thought she was saying no! But after some time, Greg managed to convince her to put her phone away lol. With an incredible amount of shock, excitement, and tears, she said yes! And as an added bonus, once I came up to her to show I captured the whole thing, she was even more excited that she didn&rsquo;t need her phone after all lol! The surprise proposal at Chinguacousy Park Brampton was a hilarious success. The weather was pleasant. The colours were vibrant. There was a natural mix of of laughter, jokes, and downright silliness. I love planning secret proposals for my couples. Their reactions are always worth the capture.

This is a story of how your girl hopped on a plane to capture a Dreams Cancun Mexico sunset beach engagement! As a photographer who has been capturing Canadian weddings for over a decade, this was my first outside the country destination wedding, and oh boy was it a ride!
&nbsp;
Ksenia and Spencer had been together for over a decade, hoping to tie the knot on the beautiful beaches of Dreams Cancun Mexico. Unfortunately, COVID took their plans down a different direction as they were forced to reschedule 2 years later. With a lot of sweat, tears, and dramatic changes in life, they still stuck it out together, showing that their love can survive all storms.
&nbsp;
Thankfully, we weren&rsquo;t met with any on the beautiful Cancun beaches at sunset. Just a couple of days before their knot was tied, Ksenia and Spencer joined me in frolicking on the beach with vibrant colours on their clothes, in their smiles, and in the vast Mexican sky. Showing up in a contrasting red and blue to go with the enriching colours of dusk, The Dreams Cancun Mexico sunset beach engagement was a session to remember.

Say there is a dream dress you would love to wear on your wedding day, but you also want to respect traditional cultural attire. Who says you can&rsquo;t have both? Leyuan and Charlie did, and so much fun was had during their elegant Chinese wedding in Guelph Arboretum! Or rather, a pre-wedding you can say 😉
&nbsp;
Leyuan always wanted an excuse to feel like a princess. She found a stunning gown online and just had to take the opportunity to run and dance with the light, billowing fabric. With the help of a friend, her partner Charlie, and their beloved dog Cooper, we set out on a journey to the beautiful sunlit green of The Arboretum in Guelph, surrounded by tall trees, lush hedges, and clear skies that shined throughout.
&nbsp;
Guelph Arboretum provided the perfect backdrop for this elegant Chinese wedding shoot. During this stylized session, Leyuan and Charlie were able to have the freedom to be themselves without the family pressures on their official day. We ran, we danced, we jumped, we lay, and we laughed, and had a great time. The Arboretum in Guelph has always been a favourite space of mine to shoot portraits, and I always encourage future couples to come explore the beautiful green space with me sometime. 🙂

"She is a goddess! So talented and kind. We had such a blast working with her. We appreciate the time she took, the artist she is. She captured us beautifully and are so in love with these images.

Can't wait to see all the magic she creates!"

"Linda was absolutely fantastic to work with, super professional and very comfortable to be around. I wanted to surprise my wife to be with a dudeoir magazine as a wedding gift. I contacted Linda about it and heard back the very same day. It was a very seamless process to have everything setup, she had great ideas for exactly the kind of aesthetic I was going for and it turned out wonderfully. I would 10000% recommend and plan to have another shoot done with my wife."
