Amazing moment! Looking at this photo at any time one cannot feel more certain of the power of love in its true existence and is surely a reminder for the meaning of “life”. Thank you Mark for sharing all.
We are happy to announce that Ridout Photography is officially a preferred vendor for Nestleton Waters Inn. It was probably close to three years ago when we first visited and photographed a wedding here. We discovered an oasis of manicured lawns, gorgeous gardens, statues, fountains and elegantly appointed accommodations. Every year we would continue to...

The red glow in the second image is a natural occurring aura that surrounds me when I am photographing…….ok it might be a burning candle 
Dear Mark. I am not quite religious and one of the reasons is that I think both heaven and hell terms would be quite an “ego administratively based system” that doesn’t suit the “God” term itself. If in any case I dream of heaven and “have” to admit that no one from the administration need to copy anything, I am pretty sure they are borrowing your work, vision and ideas to make things better up there. After all, the best humans are going to end up there, it owed to be the best place according to the life lived or seen down here.
Hell, even hell should advertise that to torture people for missing heaven 
By the way, admiring the 2nd shot I notice a beautiful red light cast on the trees from the left side which is not anticipated according to the lighting in the panoramic one (which is one of the best I have seen-according to my taste). Is it gelled or natural from a light source missing in the pano? Just out of curiosity…
Equally well appointed selection of images. Well done in being the properly preferred pontificated photographer.
Desiree and Matthew will be getting married at The Club at Bond Head May 2012. A beautiful venue located in Bond Head Ontario just off highway 88 near the 400. Desiree and Matthew traveled to Lindsay where I toured them around to a few of my favourite locations as well as Prison View Estates. Who...

Thanks for the lengthy comment but the image was triggered as the camera slipped from my fingers
For the one in the hut (one of my favorities). It’s not just the remote lighting itself that I admire. Remotes are available to everyone. The time and type of specific day, the confined space, the positioning of the light, balance and wideness to reveal faces and cast appropriate shadows on bodies, the casted shadows on the grass, shadow and highlight smoothness of the surrounding, treatment. And most importantly from the couple’s side (which were not models prior to this): their limited available time for shots, fun, attitude and feeling otherwise not achieved without either careful planning or master photographer coordinating. I would presume all of the above made this possible. This is just another sample of a guide for a brain fed by the eye with perfectly balanced and uniquely targeted tasty food. That’s what I call “Sef Photography”.
Ya, the one in the shitter rocks!
Radio-popper trickery in the outhouse…clever, great shot to capture the sky too Mark.
Number 5 and the last one is awesome…
I like the remote lighting inside the hut.

Just a wonderful post….as usual. Thanks Mark!
Mark, these are magnificent! I love all the purple and #5, oh my, frisky!!!
Lindsay & Allen were naturals in front of the camera. The wedding will be a breeze with chemistry like this. Enjoy a few images from our visit.

Excellent light as usual. Panel 2 is my favourite with the long range compression.

If these photos are the appetizer of what’s to come, I can hardly wait to see the main course! Fine specimens I might add!
Pure pleasure to the eyes and heart. Lovely couple full of life and obviously love. Your amazing work subtly elevates and promotes their moments that will be remembered for a lifetime. Can’t wait to see samples from their wedding.
