Honeymoon Memories on 35mm Film
Over on my Instagram yesterday I asked if anyone would be interested in seeing more of our honeymoon travels. So today I’m sharing highlights from our incredible trip, shot on 35mm film!
There's something truly magical about film photography in general, but travel on film especially has that perfectly encapsulated romance and nostalgia. All these images were shot on Kodak Gold 200 and the lab I used was Canadian Film Lab.
As for our travels - we started in Ireland and made our way around the country via car rental. Our week in Ireland seemed to fly by, with each day bringing us to a new breath taking location.
When we left Ireland, it was for Turkey. We landed in Istanbul where we boarded our cruise shop after two nights of exploring and EATING. From there, it was on to Kusadasi (Ephesus). We had no idea what to expect but certainly were not disappointed. Some of the most beautiful ports were saw were in Turkey and it’s certainly a location we plan to go back to.
When we left Turkey, we headed to the number one bucket list place - Egypt. My husband and I had actually talked about traveling to Egypt one of the first times we ever hung out. He told me it had been his dream to go since he was a kid and I had joked that he better take me with him one day. Well…. We made it! We saw Ciaro and Alexandria, but I’m going to leave you with just the best of my film shots from the Pyramids. And one cheeky iPhone photo because, I mean, come on. It speaks for itself as to why I had to include it!!!
Our cruise stopped in Cyprus after Egypt, but I don’t have any film to share with you from there.
We next went back to Turkey, porting in Alanya. Now this is a place we would love to go back to! The port was incredible from start to finish, top to bottom. Or rather, bottom to top, as we spent the morning hiking up from the port to the top of the town’s old Medieval fort!
Okay, that’s all I’m going to share for today! There’s definitely more to come, so keep an eye out for future posts <3
Toronto Summer Engagement Session by Madison Rose Photography
Madison Rose Photography had the pleasure of capturing the love story of the sweetest couple (and their sweet puppy!) on the picturesque Toronto shores of Scarborough Bluffs.
As the sun dipped below the bluffs, casting a warm golden glow, B and H danced barefoot in the sand and popped champagne, celebrating their love.
As they strolled hand in hand along the water's edge, leaving footprints in the soft sand, their engagement photos became a testament to the beautiful journey they are embarking upon together.
Mom + Me Sessions - Toronto Newborn Photographer

Capturing memories with your children while they are young is a priceless treasure that will forever warm your heart. I think it is so important for moms to have these opportunities as well, as we moms know all too well that we’re more often behind the camera than in front of it.
I’m so lucky to have the incredible privilege of freezing fleeting moments in time - preserving the innocence, joy and curiosity that define the early years and turning memories into timeless keepsakes.

End of Summer Engagement Session - Toronto Wedding Photographer

I absolutely adored shooting C + B’s engagement session in late September - it was the perfect way to wrap up the ‘official’ end of summer. They were so on board with all my wild ideas, from sitting in the water to traveling 20 minutes in the opposite direction to pop champagne in the perfect nighttime location. Everything was perfect from the lighting to the wardrobe and of course, this beautiful couple loving on and having fun with one another.

Lakeside Engagement Session
Happy New Year!
Through back to warm and sunny weather with this lakeside engagement session in Oakville. How sweet are these two!? I am beyond excited for their wedding in 2023.
I have had a whole string of brides wearing white for their engagement photos lately and I absolutely love it! Why not rock the look and soak in all that ‘bride to be’ magic? If you haven’t considered white for your engagement session, at least think about throwing it in for a few portraits before you change ;)

Chic City Engagement - Toronto Wedding Photographer
A summer evening, downtown, chic wardrobe and a gorgeous couple in love. The perfect recipe for a stunning Toronto engagement session! I met these two lovebirds when A proposed to M and had me secretly waiting to photograph the whole thing! We took some lovely photos of the surprise and they even did a quick wardrobe change from sweats to dress but still wanted to take it up a notch with some portraits that were less unexpected. I think these two absolutely nailed the city chic look! Congratulations, A + M!

Autumn Family Session in Beamsville, Ontario
A Beautiful Autumn Family Session in Beamsville, Ontario.
I’ve had the pleasure of working with Jade from Mint and Magnolia Floral Design Co. a few times now on shoots and weddings. It was so much fun working with her in front of the lens this time around and meeting her beautiful family! They braved the cold weather for these gorgeous fall colours and I’m so happy with the results! x
Intimate City Wedding - Toronto Wedding Photographer
It’s hard to imagine such an imitate wedding in the middle of the biggest city in Canada, but Anthony and Amber pulled it off. Surrounded by only their closest friends and family they wed this summer on the rooftop patio of the Chase. These two managed to create a day that was both intimate and elegant with champagne, a tux, a shimmering gown and their mother’s blessing their rings while skyscrapers looked on.
Their first look was done outside their apartment building at 8:30am, along with some portraits just in the car park. It’s amazing what a bit of foliage and the right light can turn into! From there we all took an Uber to the Chase and shot more portraits on the street. Then their ceremony began, led by the lovely Mary Montanari. A rose petal exit saw them out, followed by cocktails and portraits with their guests. The nice thing about small weddings, I think, is you have the time to get a photo with every person you’ve invited!
This wedding was a dream to photograph and working with these two was a pleasure. Cheers to the newlyweds!
Meag + Tyler | At Home Engagement Inspiration
Okay. I’m here, yet again, to tell you how much I love in-home sessions. However, this session is not really “in-home”. It’s at my studio right here in Hamilton! I love being able to shoot couples and families in this homey studio because it gives all the intimate feeling of being at home but in a space that is seriously made to be photographed. Sometimes our homes aren’t so tidy - hey, mine isn’t. And sometimes we don’t have the best light - hello, all my plants are dead. So this is the perfect compromise! If you’re interested in a studio session with me, you can email me to set something up!
