Many people mentioned that they would like photo location inspiration and ideas for both engagement sessions & wedding photos. So I have compiled a great list of places Xero Digital, as a well known wedding photography Toronto company has used in the past & aspire to photograph at in the future. I will continue, in the coming weeks to post an article on a feature location. Today’s is:

The Docks/Cherry Beach

Location: Cherry St, & Polson St, Toronto

Permit: None required

The Docks has quirky, fun architecture and bright backdrops that work great for both an engagement session as well as your wedding photos! From the boardwalk you get an excellent view out over Lake Ontario towards Toronto Island and the airport, you also get a great view of the city skyline & the CN Tower, great in the evening when the sun is setting as it sets towards the west just to the left of the CN Tower.

The Docks is mainly know for The Sound Academy concert hall but there is a lot more to do at Polson Pier with restaurants & pubs to sit at and enjoy their patios in the summer; we can get great shots here as well. Spend the afternoon playing mini put and then head down for a movie at the drive-in theater.

Not too far is Cherry Beach situated on Lake Ontario (East end of Toronto), at the foot of Cherry Street, featuring a sandy beach, with a designated leash-free zone for your furry friends along for the ride or photoshoot, kite boarders flock to this end of the beach for the best waves and just behind the beach is The Martin Goodman Trail with wooded areas and another boardwalk.

The Docks and Cherry Beach area has a lot to offer with a variety of nooks & crannies to photograph in. We have lots of availability for engagement shoots and are filling up quickly for the 2013 wedding season. Give our studio a call at 416-688-7712 or send us an email at mail@xerodigital.ca to inquiry about our package pricing & availability. We’d love to be a part of your celebration & look forward to hearing from you.
