Featured in South Asian Bride Magazine
Check out the South Asian Bride Magazine for a beautiful creative shoot I participated in back in the summer. The shoot “embodied both western influences and eastern traditions” and gathered inspiration from the film Tuck Everlasting.

Ontario Inspiration shoot featured on SMP
This past summer I had the pleasure of contributing my calligraphy to a inspiration shoot involving many creative talents from Ontario. The shoot was recently featured on Style Me Pretty. Here are a few of the photos. Christina of Truffle Toronto is also the beautiful model in the photos!

Send More Mail
It’s been a very busy Spring (hence the lack of posts) but I wanted to take a break and share a project I worked on this past winter with Jaime from Send More Mail and Tanya at Snap + Tumble. You can read more about this collaboration on The Wedding Co and Oh So Beautiful Paper.
When I first heard about Send More Mail, I knew I had to contact Jaime right away to get my hands on some of her vintage stamp packs. US vintage stamps can be easily found online (just search Etsy), but the same can’t be said about its Canadian counterpart. So if you’re looking for Canadian vintage stamps to dress up your envelopes just give Jaime a shout.

Oh So Beautiful Paper
It’s a great day when one of my favourite blogs, Oh So Beautiful Paper, features my work!
Around the world… part 2
Another one of my American couples is Rebecca and Will, whose wedding was featured in The Knot Georgia. The bright yellow lined envelopes sent to me to address were just a glimpse of their sunshine filled day.
Around the world… part 1
One of the great things about being a calligrapher is being able to work with fantastic couples around the world. Location really has no boundaries. I’ve worked with many couples in the US and as far away as Australia and the UK. Having not met them in person, it’s really great to see their wedding photos and vision come to life after the big day.
First off, Chandra & Jonathan from California. Their wedding was so fantastic that it was featured in both Style Me Pretty and The Knot Southern California. Chandra created all of her amazing wedding stationery with her MOH. Together they have started their own shop, Tilde Designs.
Weddingbells: Dream Schemes
So exciting!! My calligraphy has once again been featured in the latest issue of Weddingbells magazine. The spring & summer 2011 issue is about to hit newstands any day now. Our romantic invitation, in the Sophia style, with matching envelope liner is shown on page 31.
