amanda & matt portraits

During my trip out to Toronto for a wedding, I had a full day of shooting with Friday being a double-header shoot because I also had the opportunity to get in a portrait session with the Maid of Honor, Amanda and her beau, Matt.  So, we headed off to Unionville, a quaint, small town in the midst of the sprawling metropolis of Toronto.  I consider this town to be one of Ontario’s best-kept secrets, and is particularly rich in things to shoot, with all the color and architecture of a time gone by.  Perfect for a good looking couple like this!

For some reason, this town reminded me of a scene from Forrest Gump.  You know, the scene where Forrest says, “Life is like a box of chocolates. You never know what you’re gonna get.”  So, naturally, I just had to recreate it!  Here’s my take on it:

Now that I got my Gump-inspired shot out of the way, we were off to eat some candy, slushies, ice cream, and do some more photos!  I hope you enjoy the photos as much as we had fun taking them!

Thanks for a great time, guys!
