My last shoot…for a little while anyway
This was my last wedding before Ontario closed non essential services as a result of Covid 19. Liz and Greg came from Caledon Ontario to elope with their two kids and her parents by their side. Despite all the changes in their plans the two of them took everything in stride. At the end of…
