Hehe’s 80th birthday party!

I was delighted when Dianne contacted me to photograph the momentous occasion of her father’s 80th birthday celebration in Etobicoke.  It was the first family gathering they had in a long time and it was definitely the type of gathering we all missed for the past couple of years.
