Le Studio G. R. Martin : une histoire de famille (Express Ottawa)

Here is the “LINK” for an article that appeared in the  “‘Express – Ottawa, La voix francophone de l’Est à l’Ouest d’Ottawa ” written by Kristina Brazeau.

En voici des extraits:

La réputation du Studio G. R. Martin, situé à Orléans, n’est plus à faire. Voici l’histoire d’une famille animée par la même passion : la photographie.

Le Studio, qui a été fondé par Guy Martin, compte son épouse, Julie Robichaud-Martin ainsi que la fille de ce dernier, Joelle Martin.

Ceux-ci ne cessent de cumuler les prix depuis plusieurs années. 

Diplômée de La Cité collégiale en 2008, Joelle Martin a remporté la palme du Portfolio de l’année ainsi que du meilleur Portrait de l’année. Elle a également remporté deux excellences, un mérite et un ruban de créativité lors d’une compétition organisée par la Corporation des maîtres photographes du Québec (CMPQ) malgré sa jeune carrière. 

 Âgée de 20 ans seulement, Joelle travaille pour l’entreprise familiale depuis l’âge de 10 ans. «À 20 ans, elle a tellement de talents que Guy et moi souhaitons lui transmettre toutes nos connaissances pour qu’elle puisse nous surpasser un jour», indique Mme Robichaud-Martin en ajoutant que son mari l’avait également prise sous son aile à l’époque. Le trio se spécialise dans les portraits de toute sorte. «C’est plate de photographier un édifice qui ne parle pas, qui n’a pas d’émotions. Nous aimons l’interaction avec les gens», indique Julie en ajoutant qu’il n’y a rien de plus plate qu’un photographe plate. C’est pourquoi toutes leurs sessions sont accompagnées d’une consultation pour apprendre à connaître le client. 

Cette dernière cumule également les prix et a pour sa part récolté une sixième nomination pour Photographe portraitiste de l’année au Canada depuis 1999. Elle a également remporté le premier prix pour l’Album de mariage au Canada en 2006. Cette dernière a aussi eu l’occasion de se rendre en Chine, avec son conjoint, afin de représenter les photographes de l’Amérique du Nord et d’offrir, entre autres, de la formation. 

Guy Martin, qui se spécialise quant à lui dans les portraits de familles et des gens d’affaires, a été sacré Photographe portraitiste de l’année en Ontario en 2004 en plus de récolter deux nominations pour le Photographe portraitiste de l’année au Canada. Il a d’ailleurs remporté deux premiers prix pour le meilleur portrait et le meilleur portrait d’enfants. 

Ces derniers excellent également dans les photos de mariage. 

Le fait de participer à des compétitions est une motivation et revêt même un aspect de compétition entre eux.

4 Generations of Wisdom – Ottawa lifestyle Photography

Grandma Gert is ready to celebrate her 93 rd birthday  very soon !  She still passes on her words of wisdom to her children, grand children and great grand children. What an accomplishment to have lived , loved and been loved for almost a century. Her laughter is contagious, her stories are of the good old days and her remarks are still as witty  as always. She does not stop to amaze us. It is one thing to photograph a senior in our studio with controlled lighting, but, for me, the beauty is when the photograph tells a story….and  this one does that for me.

 A three year old child looking into her future as a great grandma passes on her wisdom in admiration.  To top it of, and old painting of her when she was in her prime as the N.B. Lieutenant Goveneur’s wife.

It’s the circle of life.

As the mother of a 3 year old child, I can only hope that the path my daughter will choose will be as rewarding as the path my grandmother chose to walk .

Your Ottawa Photographer,

Julie Robichaud-Martin

Another Beautiful Ottawa – Gatineau Wedding

How do you get awesome wedding photography? The answer is simple: you need good chemistry between you “the client” and the photographers, a lot of trust, a lot of fun, a lot of laughter and a portrait artist that understands the importance of timing, composition, posing and direction of light. Mix all that together, add a couple in LOVE with awesome personalities and a great wedding party. The results: Sara & Jeffrey’s wedding day.

We started in Orleans, ceremony was at St-Anthony’s church on Booth Street in Ottawa, and then we went to Théâtre de l‘Ile in Gatineau for the formal photos. The  wedding reception was at Chateau Cartier in Aylmer. We had so much fun, they had so much fun, and it was a beautiful day. How cool is that !!! We have the best job in the world…

kids, kids, kids – Ottawa Children Photography

Kids are beautiful. Spontaneous, candid style photography is often the way to go when photographing babies and children. Nothing beats a beautiful studio portrait, they are truly amazing; but, well executed candid freestyle photography is like magic. In the last year, we’ve had the privilege of photographing Ottawa kids in action at a local daycare. Here are examples of the photographs we came up with to decorate their walls.Baby and Children on location photography Ottawa Orleans CumberlandBaby and Children on location photography Ottawa Orleans CumberlandBaby and Children on location photography Ottawa Orleans CumberlandBaby and Children on location photography Ottawa Orleans CumberlandBaby and Children on location photography Ottawa Orleans CumberlandBaby and Children on location photography Ottawa Orleans CumberlandBaby and Children on location photography Ottawa Orleans CumberlandBaby and Children photographers Ottawa Orleans CumberlandBaby and Children on location photography Ottawa Orleans CumberlandBaby and Children photography Ottawa Orleans Cumberland
