STEPHANIE + JAD’S JULY 2014 WEDDING – ST-ELIAS CATHEDRAL, OTTAWA
Welcome to all brides that need inspiration and ideas for their wedding day. Stephanie and Jad’s wedding was unforgettable! From the stationary to the individually hand wrapped sweets, from the custom made dress from Cyprus to the Calvin Klein’s Tuxedo’s, from the Badgley Mischka shoes to the decoration and flowers….everything right down to the littlest details was top shelf! Stephanie and Jad are amazing together. Their chemistry will light up a room. Not only are they gorgeous, smart and have great personalities…they are very generous and kind to everyone in their entourage.
The wedding day started at both parents’s homes in the morning. We photographed Jad and his family first then went to the bride’s home. Stephanie got ready with her brides maids while we took care of photographing everything around them. The house was full of families and friends and the entertainment was by the Ottawa Zaffeh group. We then made our way to the St. Elias Antiochian Orthodox Cathedral to witness them say the big “I DO”. Everything after this moment was photo heaven:) We went downtown Ottawa for the bridal party and couple’s photos and had so much fun creating artistic photographs for Stephanie and Jad. They are so photogenic, the camera loves them…and Stephanie knows how to stare into that lens helping us capture her true beauty.
We returned to the St-Elias Banquet Center in Ottawa for the cocktails and diner followed by a night filled with dancing, love and laughter . We hope you enjoy our wedding day highlight. Congratulations again to the couple!

SARAH + MATT – CARLETON UNIVERSITY OTTAWA WEDDING
Sarah and Matt tied the knot on a beautiful summer day. The venue was amazing. For a short time, the Carleton University in Ottawa accepted to do weddings and Sarah and Matt were fortunate to be amongst the very few that got the chance to use this new conference center in Ottawa. Sarah looked radiant, beautiful and elegant in her McCaffrey designer dress and Matt, so handsome. The wedding ceremony was on the Carleton University terrace overlooking the park and river. It was a beautiful setting. To make it even better, Keith Langille, from exceptional ceremonies preformed the ceremony and made it original, unique, and added just the right amount of humor to keep the guests and family totally connected from beginning to end!
The family , wedding party and couple photos were done on the terrace and Carleton University grounds. Here are some highlights of the wedding day.
Congratulations again Sarah and Matt. You are perfect for each other. We wish you the best!

KIM & JUSTIN SAY “I DO” AT STANLEY’S OLDE MAPLE FARM
Kim and Justin met in 2002 while they were both still attending high school. Justin was in grade 12 and Kim was in grade 10. Although they both went to the same high school (St. Matthews), they did not know each other before they started dating. They met each other for the first time when Kim was invited to go to Justin`s house with a mutual friend. That night Justin asked Kim for her number and they quickly began dating. Justin officially asked Kim if she wanted to “make things official” on October 9th, 2002 and they have been together ever since!!!
The wedding day started at the groom’s house in Ottawa. Then, we made our way to the Arc Hotel where we photographed Kim and the girls getting ready (she had the cutest flower girls ever) The rest of the wedding day was at Stanley’s Olde Maple farm in Edwards, Ontario. The venue is great for photos, the staff is very helpful and the weather was blazing hot- actually, it was the warmest day we’ve had so far all summer. On another note, Earl from Stanley’s Olde Maple farm went above and beyond for the couple as Kim wanted a photo with her favorite tree, the weeping willow. Since Earl did not have one on his property, he drove around Edwards to find one for Kim. That is great service! Kim and Justin, you are perfect for each other!!! During the whole day you both were so happy, relaxed and spontaneous that photographing you was such a pleasure… Here are some highlights of your wedding day.
