Janet Rosenberg & Studio recently redesigned James Canning Gardens in Toronto and commissioned me to photograph it this summer. The gardens feature a canopy of existing trees, a playground, custom corten steel archways and beautiful urban furniture.

It was important to capture the park in use, so we made sure to include as many people as possible in the images. During daytime, the trees shield the park from the heat, and at night, the lights from the lampposts and the archways provide soft lighting to enjoy the space.

I had the fantastic opportunity to go back in the winter during a snowstorm to capture a very different perspective of this beautiful park.
