Charity clothing swap + sale!


I hosted a clothing swap + sale  on the weekend to raise money for an orphanage being built in India by my Mom's Aunt.  She used to be a head mistress of a school and is now 80 years old and still doing notable charitable deeds.  I think it's a wonderful cause and will be donating all the money raised at the swap along with my family's donations to it.  The left-over clothing will go to The Salvation Army.

What's your favourite charity to donate to?

Mom's Healthy Secrets

This is a shoot we did for the redesign of the packaging for Mom's Healthy Secrets, the organic cereal created by Julie Arora and her Mom.  It's a all-natural, healthy and tasty cereal.  You can request a sample here.    And be sure to check out the new packaging on the MHS Facebook page.

Frugal Fashion Week: I Heart Frocks!

It was a pleasure for me to shoot Frugal Fashion Week's I Heart Frocks! charity event benefitting Windfall, Canada's new clothing and basic-needs items bank. The fashion event took place at Nyood Bar and featured local designers and started off with electronica/pop music by Monnakoe. The fabulous cupcakes were made by Frugal Fashion Week's own founder Gillian Downes!

The evening ended with a Designer Silent Auction featuring frocks and rocks custom-created by emerging designers including Solace, Another Word For Pink, Handsome and Lace, Hypercube, Bikay, Our Lady and The Chains of Love, amongst others.

Thanks for inviting me to shoot this fantastic event Gillian!

Danny Bhoy

Danny Bhoy was in Toronto on April 29th at the Queen Elizabeth Theatre. He's quite the funny lad and he had new material and brought back a few of the classics! It was great to meet him after the show and get his latest DVD autographed.

Anokhi & Jasmine

Two of my closest friends K and A have been captured in their pregnancy stages by photohogger.

K's daughter Anokhi is 8 months old and full of energy, a complete joy to play with! Even at such a young age it's amazing to see the similarities she holds with her Mother:

A's daughter Jasmine is 2 months old and already displays the elegance of her Mother, complete with dainty fingers and an appreciation for gourmet meals.  Just look at how she holds onto the edge of the plate with her finger (while asleep!).
