Our Experience Shooting Kristin & Estanislao’s Wedding at Gladstone House Toronto

From the moment Kristin and Estanislao reached out to us, we knew this wedding would be one for the books. They’re one of those couples whose energy fills the room. Their story started, like many modern love stories do—in the DMs.

Kristin was a self-proclaimed city rat who vowed never to venture north of Bloor. Estanislao, on the other hand, was raised in Port Credit, Mississauga. After two years, a dog, and a big move to Barrie (yes, the city rat changed her ways for love and a backyard), their bond had only grown stronger.

And when Stan got down on one knee in Park Guell, Barcelona, Kristin didn’t even wait—she grabbed the ring before he had the chance to put it on. Now that’s the energy we love to capture!

Having shot many weddings at this venue, we knew exactly how to use the lighting, angles, and textures at Gladstone House to bring their day to life. From romantic portraits in the arched hallways to dance-floor magic in the Melody Bar, this wedding at Gladstone House Toronto was an absolute dream.
