We love photographing weddings every time of the year. With 4 seasons in southern Ontario, you go from Spring photos with blooming flowers, through vivid, green Summer backdrops to full of warm colours Fall weddings. For a passionate Hamilton wedding photographer like myself, it brings me so much joy and a creative boost. One location never looks the same.
As the leaves began to turn vibrant shades of red, orange, and gold, Vanessa and BJ embarked on a journey forever in a fall wedding that radiated warmth and love. As their chosen Hamilton wedding photographer and videographer, we captured every fleeting and joyous moment. From getting ready in the morning to the heartfelt exchange of vows and the fun celebration that followed.
Choosing your Hamilton Wedding Photographer and Videographer
When we met with Vanessa and BJ, the couple in this story, they explained that they wanted a mix of candid and elegant photography. They were worried about posing and needed photographers to guide them and their families through the formal photos. And this is exactly what we do! Our goal is a seamless experience for all our clients. We help you with the logistics of the day and help you create a list of formal photos. What is more, we coordinate it for an easy, flawless experience for everyone.
With this vision in mind, we set out to capture their fall wedding, and the results, as you can see below, were stunning!
Getting ready | C Hotel By Carmen’s, Hamilton, ON
The day kicked off with Vanessa surrounded by her bridesmaids and family at the C Hotel By Carmen’s in Hamilton. My first pictures were of the wedding invites, wedding rings, bridal shoes and bouquet. Vanessa’s bubbly personality shone through our lenses as she prepared for the day ahead. A unique touch was posing with heart-shaped sunglasses, adding a playful element to the pre-wedding preparations. When Vanessa was ready, it was time for the first look with her bridesmaids. It was an energetic blend of emotions and fun, setting the tone for the joyous day ahead.
Meanwhile, BJ and his groomsmen were getting ready at their home in Hamilton. They were sharing some laid-back moments and creating cherished memories with his groomsmen, father and their beloved dog.
Wedding Photoshoot | Gage Park, Hamilton
The chosen location for their pre-ceremony photoshoot was the picturesque Gage Park in Hamilton. The colourful leaves created a dream backdrop, with the Niagara Escarpment in the distance. Family portraits, wedding party group shots, and intimate moments between Vanessa and BJ were all captured there. As Hamilton wedding photographer and videographer, this park is our go-to location for wedding and engagement photos, at any time of the year. I love the versatility this place gives, from elegant, stone stairs and a fountain, to a rose garden and tall trees giving the shade and vibrant backdrop for your pictures.
With the photoshoot wrapped up, the wedding party made their way to Carmen’s Banquet Centre for the indoor ceremony and reception.

Cocktails and reception was a celebration filled with laughter, dancing, and the joyous clinking of glasses. The couple’s love for each other radiated through the venue, creating an atmosphere of happiness. As Hamilton wedding photographers and videographers, we revelled in the opportunity to capture these special moments – from the heartfelt to the lighthearted – that would forever be etched in the couple’s memory.
Vanessa and BJ’s fall wedding was a testament to the beauty of love, the magic of the season, and the joy that comes with finally saying yes to your person. As we looked through our lenses, we couldn’t help but feel the warmth and genuine connection that surrounded the couple.
