Hey Toronto couples! So, you know that dreamy, fairytale engagement shoot you’ve always imagined? Trust me, you don’t have to leave the city—or even go far at all—to find it. I shoot weddings all over Toronto and am always scouting out spots that feel magical. To see what I mean, browse my Toronto engagement portfolio for some of my favorite local sessions. Honestly, Paletta Mansion in Burlington? That place is something special


A couple sits on a stone wall in a sunlit garden, surrounded by lush green trees. The mood is serene and restful as they share a quiet moment.

Let me tell you about Jen and Huggo. They wanted their engagement photos to feel elegant but still really connected to nature. We talked about their ideas, and Paletta Mansion just made sense right away. We spent the afternoon wandering around, laughing a ton, and catching those little moments that really show who they are together. The whole place has this perfect mix of class and natural beauty—just what they were after.

So, what's the deal with Paletta Mansion? Well, imagine a stunning lakeside estate, right on the shores of Lake Ontario. Think manicured gardens, historic charm, and views that just wow. It's a total photographer's playground!


There is so much going on at the Paletta Mansion! I'm speaking fancy gardens perfect for those traditional romantic photographs, a meandering brick path just perfect for that stroll, and, of course, the magnificent mansion itself, whose touch of ageless refinement only adds class to every shot.

Can we talk about Jen and Huggo for a second? Their laughter was totally infectious. It made my job feel easy.

I’m always chasing great light, the right angle, and those real, honest moments between couples. Paletta Mansion has endless spots for that. Plus, I’ve shot there before, so I know all the hidden gems. I don’t just want to snap pretty pictures—I want to tell your story. If you’ve got a vision for your own engagement or wedding shoot, let’s chat. Head over to my contact page and let’s make it happen.
