Cliff Spicer Photographer

I can not believe how great it feels to get the work up. I am so proud of every wedding I shoot and I love showing others my work. So you can imagine when I was so busy how I felt guilty not getting my work out there but here it is now and I hope you love it as much as I love shooting these events. I am also open to any ideas how to improve my site as I want it to be the best photographers site on the net showcasing some great work and being inspirational and easy to get around , . Please post your feedback as I can take the good with the bad. It is a learning experience.

Now that wedding season is a little slower and we can now take some time to work on the site, Lisa and I are have been working on a major update. We have already posted 14 new featured weddings and we have 21 more to go before we can breathe a sigh of relief. Check them out and we always love you feedback of our work.

I wanted to share this photo that I thought was kind of funny. I consider myself a pretty well organized guy with some room for improvements but I have now seen an organized Minister who has shown me a whole new meaning to keeping things under control. Check out this photo and let me know if this guy is really organized or has OCD. I know the wedding party were stressing out trying to remember what colour they were. I think I may be jealous of this guy.

I had the most amazing shoot today. Michelle (a friend of mine) had called me up and asked me a few months back if I could shoot some photos of her and her boyfriend Andy because all they had were some snapshots of the two of them together. I told her for sure, but twice we setup the shoot and something came up and it got cancelled. It rained one day and the next time we set it up was the hottest and most humid day of the year. We all agreed no one would be looking their best in those conditions so we left it and agreed we would shoot in the fall. The date and time were set a few weeks back for today. This morning I received a call from Andy who I had heard lots about but never met. He told me he was going to propose to Michelle at our shoot and wanted my help to pull it off. We agreed it would be best to leave this moment until the end of our shoot so Michelle could first focus on our session and keep her makeup fresh. So the shoot was moving along nicely and Andy and I never mentioned a word or shared a glance at each other so that we wouldn’t give anything away. I told them at the end of our shoot I wanted to have a little fun if they were up for it and they both said they were. I went back into position, made sure my camera was ready and told Michelle a fun photo may be with Andy down on one knee as though he was going to propose to her. This was his cue and he pulled the ring out of his pocket and placed in on her finger. The photos are the real deal of their engagement. I will always remember this shoot. Capturing this type of raw emotion is what has and still does draw me to photography. I wish them nothing but happiness and feel privileged to have been included in such a great moment in their lives.

Here are a few from Charlotte and David’s wedding. It was a rainy cold day and we didn’t shoot outside but nothing could stop these guys from having a great time.

I had a blast shooting Taryn and Kevin’s engagement shoot last week. The leaves are at their peak colour and with a little retouching they look almost like they are on fire in the background. I am really lucky to work with nice couples and when you have two people this good looking you can’t miss shooting some stunning images. Enjoy them and I would love some feedback.

Just wanted to share this fun photo of Leo and Ann. I love shooting in the fall not only because of the great colours but because the weather is so much nicer to work in than the heat of July and August. I will try and post some more but with 2 weddings this weekend and 40 this year life is crazy.

Here are just a few from from Ewa and Pawel’s wedding to check out. This couple are a blast to work with and I love shooting Polish weddings because these people know how to put on a great party.

Just wanted to share a few photos from Sarah and Matt’s wedding. We shot at the Distillery and the wedding was at Casa Loma. Since I have been to Casa Loma many times I knew some great spots to shot some more interesting images. Let me know what you think?

Not much I can say about Ewa and Pawel except these guys are so good looking all I had to do was point the camera and they brought the pictures alive. I love these images. The hard light and the way it wraps around their faces makes the images have an etherial glow which is the type of light I love to see in portraits.
