A few weeks ago I had the pleasure of meeting and working with members of the Gunner-Orton Family. The photo session was part of a celebration of Neil and Jenny’s 50th wedding anniversary which will occur abit later this summer. Their daughter, Simone, had contacted me several weeks earlier about doing a portrait session for Neil and Jenny and their extended family. In this day of fast paced busy lives it is difficult to get entire families together and this family was no exception with some traveling from the northern USA, Barry’s Bay, and Oakville to Neil and Jenny’s Bracebridge home. Even though the weather had threatened heavy showers I felt that we would be lucky and we were! As I pulled into Bracebridge the showers shopped and gave us a wonderful 1.5 hour window to gather everyone at Bass Rock Park and do the shoot. I love this tiny park. It has a real Muskoka look and feel and is a real hidden gem with even some long time Bracebridge residents not knowing where it is. I have used it before to shoot bride and groom and wedding party shots for some of the weddings I have shot in Bracebridge and clients seem to love it’s mix of water, rock and pines. I have posted a few of the images from our session below.
