Ottawa Winter Wedding – Aileen & Etienne

I wanted to share the highlights of this wonderful winter wedding on February 25, 2012 in Ottawa. We started the photo session at the newly renovated  Westin Hotel. The view of the Ottawa city created a great backdrop for the preparations and the portrait photo session. The bride was wearing a tailor made originally designed purple dress and the groom had a purple shirt to compliment  the color scheme. Their individuality, personality and love for each other shinned through the moment we arrived for the photo session.  The bridal session, the families and the couple’s photos were all done before the ceremony at the Westin Hotel and at the Ottawa Convention Center. We had so much fun during the photo-shoot and that’s what it’s all about! We then made our way for the ceremony and reception at La Bekta Dinning. The wedding celebrations did not stop there, it kept on going the day after at  Le Château Montebello hotel in Quebec,  for a brunch for all their family and friends. There was plenty of snow at the rendez-vous and I was so glad because it created a wonderful winter scene! -and let’s not forget the blowing snow falling from the trees onto my Canon camera and 70-200mm lens…We ended with a photo session around the Chateau followed by a sleigh ride! Here are some highlights of the winter wedding day!

Dedra – Modeling photography

Beautiful Dedra… We have had the great pleasure of photographing Dedra ever since she started dancing when she was a little girl…..And this girl can dance….she is incredible. She is now in Toronto, Ontario studding dance and wanted to work on her portfolio images. We had a lovely photo session at our photography studio in Cumberland, Ontario. We went from natural light to flash, changes set-up many times and just had fun. Since she can move so well, we elaborated on her posing skills and incorporated some dance moves in her portrait session. Here are some highlights of the photo session.

Ottawa Family Photography at our outdoor portrait studio

Spring is just around the corner and we are waiting for the snow to melt so we can start preparing the outdoor studio. We still  have some weekends available in May and June, but, don’t wait to long, places are filling up quickly. Here are some highlights of The Benvi family photo session we did at our outdoor studio in Ottawa, Cumberland. We help you design the photo session and encourage you to bring different clothes for different looks. The change from their dark tops to their white shirts gives them more variety. Family portrait sessions lasts about 1 to 1.5 hours.

 

 

Your Ottawa family photographers,

Julie and Guy Martin

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.

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!

Baby & Family Photography studio in Ottawa Ontario

We first met Nancy and Johnny when we photographed their wedding in 2008. We printed an acrylic 10×10 flush mount album and entered it in the Professional Photographers Of Ontario competition in 2009. We won first place for the “best wedding album of the year in Ontario”. Since then, they’ve welcomed two beautiful baby boys into their family. Here is a look at the photos taken in our Ottawa “Cumberland” studio. We love to include the parents when we photograph new born babies and we also have many different props and settings to choose from… Here is a look at photos we did the salvati family!

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…

Guy Martin and Julie Robichaud
