Happy New Year everyone! We are very excited to show you some of the weddings we photographed in the last half of 2012.

When we meet with couples, we are often surprised that some do not want to have an engagement session. Sometimes its for cultural and religious reasons but most of the time it is because the couple just doesn’t know what to do with the photos. Engagement photos seem like a dated tradition, where once upon a time,…

Congrats, Slinkos! What a beautiful day.
Every spot in Muskoka, especially in and around Bala, Ontario reminds me of a scene from summer romance flick. A wooded trail that leads to someones house, a local ice cream shop, a boat dock. Its all so picturesque. Add in a a cute couple who are high school sweethearts and you have the perfect…
A beautiful selection of pictures & a lovely looking couple. Love you Grandma & Grandpa Snider
I know I’m late but I could not and can not respond in any way that can do justice to something so amazing. These picturs not only illustrate your obvious love for each other but demonstrates what true love is to perfection. You are both special people and I look forward to wowing over more amazing pictures as your lives blossom as husband & wife. Congratulations.
So beautiful Keegan and Mandy! I love all the pictures, they are gorgeous, and I know your big day is going to be just as amazing.
Hi from Russia)
Thanks for sending me your pictures. You guys look great, I can’t wait for the wedding pictures. Can’t wait for the wedding too!
So I suppose I’m supposed to say something nice here. Especially now we’ve seen Murray’s sensitive side!
Mandy, you know how I like to tease – but if I could just be serious for one minute, and honestly say that you are a truly beautiful girl, inside and out, and Keegan is the luckiest guy in the world. Of course, I think Keegan is very special too, so its perfect that you have each other forever.
Great pics – love Muskoka – your’s will truly be a wedding to remember!
And I am so pleased you have chosen Rowell Photography’s to create the memories that we will cherish forever.
Love you both!

I am so proud of my Daughter, she has truely grown into a beautiful young women. I am also proud to see that she has found such a great guy in Keegan. It is rare to see a couple like Mandy & Keegan and I believe they are made for each other. Although I will most definatly cry on their big day I know that I am not giving up my daughter but gaining another son.
Congratulations

Hey Keegan and Mandy: These photos capture both your love for each other and your longevity of relationship to a “T”.

A few weeks ago we traveled to Wakefield, Quebec for Melissa and Adam’s Le Belvedere wedding. Le Belvedere is a beautiful, new wedding venue set high above the town of Wakefield. The view from the ceremony location is one of the best we have photographed in Canada and you can literally see for miles. You probably remember…

After what seems like history’s longest winter here in Ontario, we are so excited to announce our Family Photos in the Park! 2013 marks our 3rd year of offering a special promo for 1 week only in our hometown of Barrie, Ontario. The location is Sunnidale Park, and the reason why we love to come…
Finally, its starting to look like spring! Mother nature messed with us a little bit with freezing rain and sleet in mid-April, but fingers crossed this beautiful weather is here to stay. This week Ryan and I tackled the backyard, racking through last years soggy leaves. It’s definitely not my favorite chore which is why we like…
A few weeks ago, when we had 2-3 feet of snow still on the ground Ryan and I drove up to Muskoka to photograph the Thompson family at their Muskoka cottage. They wanted photos that showed them hanging out like they tend to do on weekends at the cottage and also a lot of action…
These photos are awesome! You guys are fantastic photographers.
Say hi to your Mom for me,tell her that if we can’t see her in person the pictures are the next best thing.I remember all the fun we had as cousins all those years ago,not so much in the winter but the summers were wonderful and we were all so close.
Cool!
amazing What a great bunch and good pictures.
Thanks Alyson! We sure had a lot of fun taking them!
What a beautiful family you have, I hope you don’t mind but I am going to share them on Facebook so my sister Shelley and my daughter Tricia and David can see them.You truly are a lucky family.
so much fun!
Amazing shots! Makes me wish I was there!
So fun! I smiled the whole time looking at them – especially the canoe ones! Beautiful photos.
Relationships and marriage are about give and take, forgiving and forgetting and finding the good in one another and then letting that person shine. In the words of Wilfred A. Peterson “It is not only marrying the right partner, it’s being the right partner.” Chris & Anne Marie fell in love as kids, and then…
My fiance recommended your site to me. This is the most creative and fun engagement photoshoot that I have ever seen and I really love them so much. Way to go Erika and Ryan and of course, great job by the new weds!
The photos turned out great. Great job!
Thanks Marlowe! Great point of view. Loved your comment it made my day! Congrats on 20 years together!
Great pictures! It looks like you guys had a lot of fun doing them ! They will be a great keep sake in the coming years. My wife and I have been married for almost 20 yrs. We highly recommend it! Laugh lots, share everything, read up on it for it takes work to build the kind of relationship that will last! Once again great pic’s!
Cool!
Cool!
These are great!
Matt, the photographer has to expect some controversy here. It’s clearly going to push some buttons and bring up a sensitive issue. The other commenters were polite and voiced their opinions in a respectful way and should not be considered “venting” and in need of psychologists. Artists know that criticism is part of the job. Yes, the photos are amazingly done. But people need to be allowed to comment honestly.
Something different. Love IT!
It’s a shame that such a creative photo shoot that was meant more to be satirical humor on the idea of marriage is taken so far out of context. Seems to me that this shoot neither promotes nor for that matter suggest the idea of domestic violence. I think if you are offended by the content and cannot see the humor then some inner reflection or perhaps some time spent with a psychologists would be better than venting needlessly on someones blog offending the couple who should be very proud of this AMAZING engagement shoot.
This is not funny at all. It is making a joke about domestic violence.
hahah hilarious! definitely far from the norm for engagement photos!
lol, this is so unique and so much fun!
this is priceless! well done!
This past October we had the pleasure of photographing Tara & Ryan’s Barrie, Ontario wedding, You may remember them from their summertime engagement session just outside Barrie. They were married at Saint Mary’s Church just 5 mins from our house and then partied the night away at The Southshore Centre on Barrie’s beautiful Lakeshore. 2012 was the…
