Every spring, a portrait photographer races against time, weather and the crowds to win the impossible cherry blossom “war”.  This year, I feel like a winner with the help of an amazing couple, Courtney & Gary.

We opted to avoid the crowds at High Park in Toronto and decided to make Mississauga our playground.  After visiting the cherry blossoms in a downtown park called Kariya Park, we headed to Mississauga Civic Centre for some fun and more spring blossoms.  I’m not sure we could have asked for a perfect morning in May.

I’m very much looking forward to their wedding day this August at Riverstone Golf Course, but in the meantime I hope you enjoy these photos of our spring morning together in downtown Mississauga.

Enjoy!
