Ottawa Dance Photographers – featuring Laura Jeffs

Here’s a fun photo session for this time of year. Dance school photography is just around the corner as dancers are getting ready for their end of year recital. Over the years, we take photos of many dance schools in the Ottawa, Orleans and Plantagenet area. I really love it when we get to do an hour photo session in the studio in a more artistic matter. Laura offered these photos to her mom as a gift for creating and making all her wonderful dance costumes. She was also our first ballerina brave enough to dance in the snow!…A true Canadian!!! Here are a few highlights of the photo session.

Josée & Mathieu’s Destination Wedding in Punta Cana

Have a look at our recent destination wedding in Punta Cana, Dominican Republic. The destination wedding was at the Ocean Blue and Sand in Punta Cana. What a great resort, what a great time, what an amazing couple! So in love, so beautiful, so “picture perfect”. Here is what  the couple had to say: “Thank you Joelle Martin and Studio G.R. Martin for their hard work, their dedication and their amazing talent. Thank you for capturing those very special moments of our very special day! Thanks to your amazing photography, we will be able to relive our wedding every day for the rest of our lives!” – Josee & Mathieu Cyr.

Kristy – Ottawa Business & Portfolio Photography

 Here is a look at Kristy’s business & portfolio session. She needed one headshot for her resume and a few artistic ones to complete her portfolio.  These types of sessions are better during the day because we can mix the  natural light with flash. Enjoy the highlight!

Swat Police Portrait Photo Session – Ottawa Photography

Here is a sneak peek at a swat photo shoot. Motivation to create something unique often comes from an idea a client has. In this case, this clients vision was difficult to understand at first since we could not go on the field, but the more we talked about this project, the more we saw his vision. Understanding what a client wants is the key to creating something outstanding to them…and is it so rewarding to us as photographers. In this swat police portrait photo shoot, we incorporated our signature style of lighting to create mood and to focus on specific swat uniform parts and accessories. For the photo session outdoors, we used natural light. We shot this in late fall ( thanks to our clients recommendation)! The trees were almost bare creating a perfect backdrop for this  type of environmental photography. I am so happy we could create artistic imagery and make each portrait storytelling and powerful. Wish you could all see the hard cover book printed on metallic paper, it is outstanding! Enjoy…

Annyx & Martin – Ottawa Wedding – Notre-Dame Cathedral & Le Nordik Spa in Chelsea

What a wedding! Beautiful fall colors make the perfect backdrop for wedding photography in the nation’s capital. We started the wedding at the couple’s house in Orleans. Beautiful light due to large windows made the lighting perfect for the portrait session. They were both in the same house…but, never saw each other. It was fun to see everyone making sure they would not cross paths- they could only hear their voices…What a fun way to build up the anticipation of the groom seeing the bride for the first time down the aisle…and the aisle at the Notre-Dame Cathedral on sussex in Ottawa is one of the most beautiful ones in town. After the ceremony, we stayed around the church to photograph the families and the couple. We then took a walk downtown and kept on photographing this wonderful and fun couple. It’s so nice when the couple are exited about their photo session because we can do anything….Annyx was the best and her dancing background made her posing skills shine- she was really good…ok, so were you Martin … We made our way to the Nordik Spa in Chelsea for the reception and took advantage of the fall colors. The mature trees made this country spa setting breathtaking… What a perfect day!  Here are some highlights of this fairy tale wedding day!

Randa & Ramsey – Wedding at the Hilton Lac Leamy

We had the pleasure and privilage of photographing the Rahal family since the 1990’s. Family  and wedding photography is important to them and we are honored to have been there creating memories for them to cherish for the past two decades.

Last august, it was Randa and Ramsey’s turn in the spotlight….and the spotlight was shining bright that’s for sure. What an Ottawa wedding!!!! Modern yet traditional, fun and entertaining, sweet and special…Their wedding was is every way…like a fairy tale ! The bride was wearing a Vera Wang Dress ( the same wedding dress as in the movie Bride Wars with Kate Hudson and Anne Hathaway) and Gold Jimmy Choo shoes.   The ceremony was at the  Saints Peter & Paul  church in Ottawa and their wedding planner was from Marry Me Productions.  We did some photos at the “Tabaret Hall” at the University of Ottawa. The reception was at the wonderful  Hilton Lac Leamy during “Les Grands Feux du Casino- Sounds of Light competition”. Have a look at this breathtaking Ottawa wedding!
