Weddings in Ottawa have a magical feeling, especially in the fall. The venues that Carley and Mat chose for their Ottawa wedding affair were amazing. They are such a sweet couple, and Carley was breathtaking in her dress. We did the pre wedding photographs at the Minto Suites Hotel , then, the wedding ceremony at the  Notre Dame Cathedral Basilica. We always stay around the church property for photos after the wedding. It’s one of our favorite spots for family photos. Since it was a very late fall wedding and it was ” cool” outside, they rented the  National Art Gallery for the wedding photography. The night ended at the Minto Suites Hotel for the reception. Beautiful day, beautiful couple….in short, we wish them a great life together 🙂

We still have a few dates available for fall weddings in 2011! Just give us a call. Enjoy the highlights!

This photo was taken with available light and a bounce flash on – 1.5 stops

Wide angle photographs can give an exiting effect ( especially downtown Ottawa)

A mix of classic poses and candid / freestyle moments are important to tell a story.

Black and white photography have an amazing look with old stone buildings.

It was getting a little cold outdoors, we were very happy the bride and groom had rented the National Gallery of Canada.

Natural light is the key to beautiful  wedding photography inside the gallery.

This is my favorite photo. Guy has a great ability to ” see the light” when he is looking for photo opportunities.

On the way to the reception, Guy convinced the couple to step outside the limousine for some  photos at major hills park. The parliament and it’s surroundings are amazing in in photos.

Carley looks amazing in this photo taken in the lobby of the Minto Suites hotel.
