Riverdale Park Engagement Photos | Frances & JP

July 28, 2018

Riverdale Park Engagement Photos | Olive Photography TorontoRiverdale Park Engagement Photos

They waited until the month before their wedding to do their engagement session for a special reason – their braces were coming off! Both of them had braces and they wanted to show off their newly straight (and we joked, slippery-feeling) pearly whites. Gotta hand it to their orthodontist, their smiles were ACE!

There are some areas of the city where the sunset glows extra bright, and Riverdale Park is one of those places. There’s also a skyling view of the city above the park, and a trail tucked away off the vast green grassy field. It’s a rad place in the almost heart of the city to take some nature-y engagement photos.

We explored, goofed around (including throwback to their youth, striking a Power Rangers pose!), and they introduced me to a game I might have to share with other couples!
The game: Stand with feet planted – they can’t move. Hands out, pressed against each other’s. Goal of the game, throw the other person off balance. The results were super fun & adorable.

I had a tonne of fun with you two – can’t wait for your wedding in less than a month!!

And from the couple themselves! 

Love Story:
We met almost 7 years ago at a weekend retreat! 7 years seems like a long time when we put it in writing, but it certainly doesn’t feel that way. Early in our relationship, we actually found out that we “met” each other years ago in 2003 at a summer camping trip because that was the year of the massive Toronto blackout. We’ve experienced most of our twenties together, so it’s been a wild ride navigating through everything as a couple from travelling, to first jobs, to making new friends and losing loved ones, to moving out and also moving in together, to even getting braces at the same time. (Thankfully, we were able to take off in time for the wedding – thank you, Dr. Cho!).
Engagement Story:
In lieu of a proposal, we threw a surprise party for our immediate family and close friends to announce our engagement. (A big shout out to our siblings and parents for helping us plan and document the majority of it!) To be honest, we don’t know that it was much of a surprise. We both live downtown but made everyone drive out to Richmond Hill (where Frances‘ parents’ home is located) and we also asked everyone to dress in “garden attire” (because, pictures). Suffice it to say that “garden attire” is not a real dress code. We did, however, manage to record some great reactions (with a secret GoPro) of a few unsuspecting friends when they showed up and realized it wasn’t just a regular BBQ!
