Have you ever looked up at the expansive buildings, wondering who occupies the seemingly tiny spaces? At nighttime, the lights in each window seem to dance on and off—from unit to unit—and suddenly these inanimate, soaring structures come to life. In what looks to be a modular world, we all exist in such close proximity to one another, yet all have such different stories. Each unit houses it’s own unique story, one that makes these similar units, not so similar at all, but rather ‘home’—to the unique people and stories that occupy each and every one of them.

Adam and Leanne are one of these great stories.

Adam and Leanne invited me into their home, where I was given the pleasure to capture a significant moment in their lives—in their story. This place, this location, this time in their lives was important for them to document.

Here is the "Here And Now". Enjoy.

I hope the library is not a thing of the past. I have so many memories of walking to my neighbourhood library as a kid. * Learning the Dewey Decimal System * Having a librarian read a story to you and a handful of other children * Being shocked when they started renting cassette tapes, then MOVIES! * Taking a book home with you and not having to pay a dime...until it was overdue

The library was probably the first real membership you had as a kid. Getting that first library card was as good as a drivers license back then. This was long before the Internet and the library had all the answers. It has been years since I have stepped back into a library but the sights, smells and lack of sounds brought all the memories back.

While Starly and Ryan didn't meet in a library, it seemed somewhat fitting that such an old school location could celebrate such a comfortable, old school love.

We finished off the shoot at their condo, taking advantage of some amazing amenities. Can't wait to have these two in front of my lens again in a few short months.

Thanks for Toronto Public Library for their assistance with this location.

Hope you enjoy.
