Sheralyn & Steven’s Intimate DIY Wedding {Muskoka Photographers}

visualroots — Tue, 31 Jan 2012 16:55:47 +0000

When Sheralyn first contacted us she was living in Singapore and Steven was living here in Ontario. Sheralyn made this great stop motion video as a save the date for their wedding. It explains really well their long distance relationship as well as showing Sheralyn’s creative side.

Their wedding decor and food was truly made with love and the help of family and friends. It was wonderful to see all of their family and friends helping with all aspects of their wedding to make it a great day and party. The wedding & reception took place on the cottage lawn on Three mile Lake in Windermere. Here are a few of our favorites from their day.

Thanks Sheralyn & Steve for choosing us for your special day.

Cheers,
Kate & Andrew

Mystic!

visualroots — Wed, 18 Jan 2012 21:35:28 +0000

Who knew you could have that much fun while learning and being inspired? Well, I am here to tell you can. Andrew and I went to a photography seminar series this year called “Mystic” It was at the very beginning of January and ran for four days of seminars. We got to meet and chat, have a beer with some of the top wedding photographers in the world. Crazy! We even made it into the Mystic Video which was filmed by Joseph Switzer of Switzerfilm

So, are we inspired? Yes! We are taking what we have learned and re-learned and putting it in to action for 2012. Thanks everyone for such a great time.
Cheers,
Kate & Andrew

ANITA & CHRIS E-SESSION {Collingwood Photographers}

visualroots — Mon, 05 Dec 2011 20:35:48 +0000

Anita & Chris will be getting married next summer and I cannot wait to see what they have come up with for decor. Anita has such a great sense of style! I will give you a hint… “zebra print” We photographed their engagement session in Collingwood, Craigleith and the Blue Mountains. It turned out to be a great evening with lots of warm light. Anita & Chris had never been to some of the locations we went to and really enjoyed finding some great trails and places to walk Easton.

Their dog Easton! Was very excited to meet us and have his picture taken.

This is one of my favorites.

It was great working with you guys!

Cheers,

Kate & Andrew

Halloween Wrap-Up

Thank You!! Thank You! What a great day. We had a lot of little ones through the studio on Oct. 28th and of course lots of fun. Because of the so many great people who joined us we raised close to 200 lbs of food for the Wasaga & Elmvale Food banks. With such fantastic success this will now be an annual studio event. We so forward to watching all the little ones grow and see what they choose to be for Halloween each year.

Here are our “not so little anymore” kids with some of the food that we raised.

Here is Madisen is costume being scared by our friend/neighbour Adam

Thanks again!

POSTCARDS FROM VISUAL ROOTS { Georgian Bay Photographers}

visualroots — Thu, 01 Sep 2011 13:52:04 +0000

Hello all! We hope you have had a wonderful summer? Hopefully the wonderful weather will continue on into the fall.

We have a very large naturalized area very close to our studio. During the better weather months of the year we use it as our outdoor studio as much as possible. Here are some postcards from the past months we have shot at our outdoor studio.

Dalene & Andrei’s Engagement Session

Adrienne & Todd just because session

Christine from Harness Your Power. Business Portraits

Over the fall months we will continue to photograph outdoors. We find that it helps clients feel more comfortable and we get more variety from the different landscapes. Looking for family portraits we will have a fall special coming up just in time for Christmas cards and Christmas orders. Hope you are enjoying the last days of summer.

Cheers,

Kate & Andrew

BABY H TURNS ONE! {Wasaga Child Photography}

visualroots — Tue, 23 Aug 2011 02:29:38 +0000

We have been working diligently to keep to deadlines and the blog has gotten forgotten again. What can we say? We like to spend any free time with our munchkins instead of the computer. School is starting soon… Baby H has been in our baby program for the last year and I really looked forward to seeing how much he has grown from session to session. He first came to see us at about three weeks old and he was oh so sweet. He just celebrated his first birthday and we had lots of fun at the final session. Most of the session he was on the move exploring the studio, he wanted to touch and see everything. We listened to lots of Raffi and he practiced his drumming on the big metal wash tub. Here is one of my favorites from the session.

Cheers,

Kate & Andrew
