Brandy and Todd chose to incorporate their engagement photo shoot with their love for spending time in the sugar bush each spring.  This year’s rapid  transition from winter to spring and Brandy’s busy schedule, as partner in a local accounting firm, meant that the snow was gone before we could do the shoot.  I was wondering if we had also missed the sap run too, but Todd asssured me that there was still pleanty of sap running.  When we got together at the sugar bush a couple of weeks ago Todd and his buddies had the fire going strong in the sugar shack that his grandfather had constructed several decades ago and the sap was bubbling away in the evaporator pans.   

A week or so later when I meet with Brandy and Todd to deliver their proofs I was surprised to learn that in spite of our incredibly mild weather they were still busy collecting sap and had been able to make a good quanity of maple syrup.   Below are a few of the shots from our shoot.  I am looking forward to working with these two again at their September, 2010 wedding in Parry Sound.
