Family And Baby Studio Photography

Here is another example of studio high key photography with a family from New York. We love photographing babies, especially when they play with their hands and feet. A great way to get a baby to do this is to put a little piece of masking tape and stick it on their toes. Their reaction is to go and grab it, and Click, you got the photo:). In this case, she was a natural :).

Winter Weddings in the National Capital

Winter weddings are great to do in the nations Capital. The city looks beautiful with all the lights and we can do great outdoor photography. Linda and Kim’s wedding was on a very cold day, I think it was -30 with the wind chill…..but, we still did a few photos outdoors. Their coffee table book is stunning. They went for the 10×10 high gloss laminate pages. With the beautiful warm colors inside the church and the Chateau Laurier, it looks amazing. Here are some of the pages in the book.  Enjoy.

Here is what ” Mom” had to say:  

“Guy, Julie and Joelle, You made precious moments everlasting moments with our family photo session on location in Mont Tremblant. Your talent, creativity and devotion to photography is a gift for everyone to enjoy. Thank you for this enjoyable experience. ” Louise

Ottawa High School Senior Photography

Beautiful Justine is our co-op student from Ecole Secondaire Gisele Lalonde in Orleans. She is great in every way. To thank her for doing such a good job and having wonderful work ethics, Joelle offered her a photo shoot. (To become a photographer, you have to learn to be in front of the camera as much as being behind it). This photo session was taken on location at a Stable.

On Location Candid Family Photography

Caroline and her kids were a joy to photograph. We went in their backyard and our mission was simple; it’s all about the moment….not the pose. Sometimes a great image doesn’t have to be all perfectly poses. In this case, we were matching a photo her husband had done 10 years ago with his 2 children. This choice of clothes matches this sepia image very well. Consultations are the key to a successful portrait photo session!

Tanya & George

Tanya & George are  the sweetest &  kindest couple we had the honor of photographing. They truly love photography  and put their 100% trust in us to help capture their wedding day memories. Guy and Brent photographed their outdoor wedding ceremony at the Billings Estate in Ottawa. After , they made their way to the Museum of Civilization in Gatineau for the wedding party and couple’s photos.  At studio G.R. martin, we are not just about taking the photos and out they go, there is a lot more work involved in creating that beautiful 8.5×11 proof catalogue. The couples see a selection of 500 to 600 proofs ( each styled and retouched), then, they make their selection and that is when we start designing the wedding album ( tailored to your style and taste). Each wedding album is unique and we have over 7 different styles to choose from.  Tanya and George just picked up their beautiful classic leather wedding album last week, and here is the testimonial they wrote:

“Hi Guy, Julie, Joelle & Carole,

I wanted to send a quick thank you to all of you from George and I. We couldn’t be more pleased with our weddiing album!! The final touch-ups and work that you all put into our album, are of an elite quality that we would not have been able to find elsewhere. We are so proud to show off our beautiful wedding pictures and album to all of our friends and family. We thank you so much for capturing each precious moment of our special day, and for making us feel confident in ourselves after seeing your breathtaking work. We will continue to trust you all with our special moments for many years to come. We can’t thank you enough!! Cheers,

Tanya & George”

Downtown Ottawa Fall Weddings – Natasha & Kyle

Natasha & Kyle – What a wonderful wedding!  We started the bridal portraits at the Fairmont Chateau Laurier, then, made our way to the  St-Joseph church in Orleans for the ceremony. We always explore the church grounds at that location for family photography. The gray brick and the courtyard next to the church are great for photos. We then went back to Chateau Laurier and Major Hill’s park for the outdoor photos. We had so much fun. Here are highlights of this event.

Ottawa Winter Wedding

Here are a few highlights from another beautiful winter wedding. Pam and Vikkas were married  at Strathmere house in North Gower, Ontario. It’s great to photograph weddings at this beautiful country estate because there is a good mix of both indoor and outdoor locations. Also, we get to mix and mingle with the guests during the cocktail while taking the family and couple’s photos. It’s a great, fun and relaxed environment for all!
