Engagement Photoshoot at Osgoode Hall

Anna & Emil’s Pre-Wedding Session

Anna and Emil chose the timeless architecture of Osgoode Hall in downtown Toronto for their intimate pre-wedding photoshoot. Before their church wedding, they wanted to capture the joy, elegance, and deep connection they share.

The weather forecast that day was far from ideal — heavy rain and overcast skies covered the city. Yet, they took a chance, and it paid off. The rain held off for just a few magical hours, giving them the perfect window to create photographs full of charm, romance, and chemistry.
