Portrait Photography| Milton

Earlier this year I was asked by Jameel (senior stylist and owner of Jameel De Stefano Salon & Spa in Milton) if I would be interested in photographing their hair models, prior to their annual White Party and fashion show, which I gladly accepted! It was a fantastic (and very busy) day, with a team of 5 stylists and makeup artists preparing 16 awesome hair models for the event!

Here are some of the portraits, categorized by stylist:

Hair-Jameel de Stefano; Makeup-Luke Skrzek

Hair-Sierra Stewart; Makeup-Luke Skrzek

Hair and makeup-Farah Ebadi

Fall Family Sessions| Milton Oakville Burlington Mississauga

It’s hard to believe September is already here…evenings are starting to get cooler, it’s back to school in just a few short days, and before you know it the leaves are going to start changing!

I am going to be offering a reduced family rate for Fall sessions (continued from late summer…). Packages will be $200 for a 30 minute session, and will include your favourite 10 digital files as well as three beautiful 8×10 prints. Possible locations will include Kelso Conservation Park, Crawford Lake, Lowville Park as well as Mill Pond in Milton. Sessions will be available both evenings and weekends. (This package can also be used for engagement photography, pets or personal portraiture.)

Here are some samples of my Fall Photography. For more information or to book a session, please contact me at girouxantonia@gmail.com.

Actor Headshots| Milton Burlington Oakville Mississauga Toronto

There are some people who are just naturals in front of the camera, and this young actor was certainly that! From the very first shot, he was relaxed and responded very well to my prompts! The whole session took about 30 minutes, and in that time we went through 4 different shirt changes, several changes of location/background, as well as many different poses. This is important, especially for a model/actor, since the agencies are going to want to see a variety of photos. Here are a few of the final results! (Did I mention how much I enjoyed working with him?!)

This very talented young lady has been an actress and model with Carolyn’s Model & Talent Agency (Carolyn’s Kids) since the age of 2, and has been in lots of different movies, TV shows, shorts, including her most recent-Odd Squad! She’s also no stranger to getting her headshots updated, and I have been pleased to do this for her for the past few years! (Again, a lot of people ask whether it’s better to do indoor or outdoor shots. A lot will depend on the agency you are with, however in my experience both have been accepted. Last year we did outdoor shots…this year we did indoor due to the weather!)

Model and Actor Headshots | Milton Oakville Mississauga Toronto

Time to catch up on some of my posts! (If you have been following my website and wish to see what I have been up to, make sure you check out my Instagram page, which I update quite frequently!)

Lately I have been getting more and more requests for model and actor headshots in the GTA. I have worked with clients who have been in the field for quite some time, as well as those who are looking at getting started and who need some photos to develop their portfolio. When working with models and actors, I always recommend bringing several changes of clothing. This will enable us to get a variety of different looks, which is important for talent agencies. We also do a variety of styles, from studio shots (with strobe lights) as well as natural light, and sessions can take place either indoors or outdoors.

And now…introducing…

Reagan! Totally reminds me of Kirsten Dunst! She came to me several months ago for her portfolio photo shoot, prior to applying to a model and talent agency in Toronto. I was so happy to hear that she is now signed with Sherrida,! Check out her profile page here! I am certain she is going to have a lot of cool opportunities ahead of her!

Here are some pics from our session together. Thanks so much to my makeup artist, Julia Szabo, for giving Reagan a beautiful look for our shoot!

Milton Engagement Photography

Wedding bells are going to be ringing in just a few more weeks…and this time for a very special person.  My baby sister.  My “little trout”.  All grown up. Just can’t believe it! She is marrying a fantastic guy who has quickly become a close member of our family…and that’s not an easy thing to do, especially when there are 4 older siblings involved that had to put him through the wringer!  But he has passed all the tests, and he has proven to be nothing but a kind soul, a pure gentleman, and a perfect partner for our Emma.  I am so excited to see Emma walk down the aisle in her gorgeous dress, and to start their lives together as newly weds.

Portrait Photography| Milton Oakville Burlington

I recently had the opportunity to photograph an amazing young man who will soon be graduating from university and therefore was in need of some head shots as well as some action shots of him playing the guitar (what a musician he is!) for an upcoming album.  We combined some documentary-style shots, studio photography and on-location photography…  Here are some of the results!
