Steve Sager bio picture

Welcome to my Blog!

 - So this is one of those things I will fill out a bit later......But just to set the record straight...

I am a husband of over 10 years, a dad to 3 inspiring boys, and hopefully a good friend.   Photography is what I was meant to do.  It is in my bones,  when I travel about I can't help but look for cool locations.  When I see a person I always seem to have a camera in my head wondering what would be the right angle.  Being a wedding photographer is a great life  - thank you.  Is this too sappy?  Like I said - I will fill it out some more later...


Natalie & David, Toronto Urban Engagement

I had a blast driving around Toronto with David and Natalie for their Eng session. We hunted down some pretty cool Toronto locations and then let their personality shine through!

Summer Vacation - 2011

Its that time of the year when I finally get around to editing my family vacation photos.   Its fun to do them now as the winter chill seems a little less when i remember how much fun the annual camping trip was.  Fun seems too plain a word to describe how exciting the 2 week trip is!  Two words… Diving Rocks…! If you haven’t seen the Sager boys on the Blog before here is a quick introduction  Marco is the youngest, he is shy at first until he knows you and then he is crazy and hilarious  Paul is the middle child.  He is responsible and caring and although I wish I could take credit, he seems to have been born that way.  Lastly there is Robert.  He is the oldest.  He loves his big family, loves a physical challenge and could spend all day looking for bugs, frogs or snakes…  My lovely wife Roberta is camera shy… but trust me she loves camping too :)

Laurie & Jared, Drake Hotel Wedding

I was beyond thrilled when Laurie and Jared asked me to photograph their wedding at the very cool Drake Hotel. I knew we would be able to get some amazing images. The uber talented Wedding Planner Kara Greenwood made sure all the details were taken care of and really helped make the day go so smoothly..

I love how Jared looked at Laurie. You could really see how much he loved her. And Laurie’s retro look was perfect for her. I could have photographed these two forever.

This might just be my favorite image. The color is beautiful, the light adds so much emotion but most importantly the image is about “feeling”. We can’t really see Laurie’s face well but we sense a lot. Feeling is better than seeing….

Julie & Samir, Toronto Wedding

If I were to do it all over again I would hope to have as much fun at my wedding as Julie & Samir did at theirs. Sure the day started out fairly quiet but wow did things kick into high gear quickly. It just seemed everywhere we went people were getting into the spirit of what a wedding can be; a celebration of love, family and friends. These guys had me laughing so much it was hard not to join them in the party!

Sabrina & Elvis, Engagement

One of my wedding clients asked me how many weddings I had photographed this year? And it made me think, I have been posting all these engagement sessions but not a lot of weddings…. Trust me there are a lot of weddings to be posted still, they just take me a lot longer. The control freak in me just can’t get through a wedding without putting a lot of thought into it. So…. As time is pretty tight right now we get these amazing engagement sessions. I absolutely love shooting these.

I think its pretty clear from the images - photographing Sabrina and Elvis was a lot of fun!
