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!

Christina and Alex are happy in love!! We photographed them at our outdoor studio in Cumberland ( Ottawa) Ontario a month before their wedding. Engagement photos are great for both the photographer and the couple, it’s kind of like a test run for the wedding day. We had so much fun walking around our property and taking beautiful images of Christina and Alex in a relaxed environment. We will post images of their August wedding soon!!!

We are so exited…. Annyx and Martin are to be married this weekend… This will be a beautiful wedding as I already saw a photo of the weding dress and I can’t wait to see it on Annyx. What a fun couple, so in love and romantic… Martin is all “cool, calm, caring and collected” and Annyx …well, I don’t have enough words to describe her bubbly, awesome personality…always smilling, an amazing model, loves the camera and the camera loves her and so tall and beautiful! Let’s just say Guy and I will have to bring a bench to photograph them, lol…
Here is a peek at their engagement session photographed at our portrait studio ( indoors and outdoors) in the Ottawa east end area!

Let’s just say Jessica has all the right moves! She’s beautiful, smart, funny, mature and her personality makes her photos shine! She knows what to do and when to do it in front of the camera. It’s was a wonderful experience to photograph her in our Ottawa ( Cumberland) photo studio and we wish her a lot of luck with her modeling career. Here is what Jessica had to say:
“When I was 13 I got noticed by an agency and they were ready to give me a scholarship because of the potential they saw in me but my parents thought that I was too young and I should have fun and not always be worried with adult stuff so the years went on and I’ve always thought that I would never have a chance like that ever again.
On my 17th birthday, my parents decided to give me a photo shoot at G.R. Martin photography studio. At first we agreed on a 45 min session and a couple of picture but it turned into a few hours and a whole album. The photographers (Guy, Julie and Joelle) reminded me that I have a lot of potential and that I should contact modeling agencies to get started in that field. I thought that was very flattering but didn’t put much effort into it. A month later, as I’m walking through the pharmacy, I get stopped by the owner of a Models International Management (Sophie) who tells me I she thinks I should enter this contest. At that point I just thought it was just one of those contests that you enter and then forget about. A month later I get a call that they want to see me at the agency where they announced I was the winner of the contest. I won a scholarship of $1,500.00 and a basket full of Benefit products. I am now at the beginning of my 18 week program and absolutely excited to see where this will bring me.
Jessica”

It’s this time of year again!

We also have a few Saturdays available in July and august. Call us at 613-824-8525 for more information.
I wanted to highlight a family session taken last year at our outdoor studio in Cumberland, Ontario. The Lachapelle family decided to dress in casual clothing with white tops and jeans, which are great for outdoor photos. They were a joy to photograph. We laughed a lot and took the time to photograph each family, kids, siblings and grandparents. The results were amazing! A typical family session lasts about 1.5 hours. Have a look at some sample from the photo session!

Wedding season is just around the corner! If you are an Ottawa soon to be bride and still haven’t booked your photograph yet, we still have a few dates available for the 2011 wedding season.
Here are some samples of a wedding photographed in Ottawa. Tania and Francois were the perfect wedding couple. They put their 100 % trust in us as wedding photographers and the results are outstanding. Joelle photographed this wedding along with her good friend and fellow Ottawa photographer Baz. The weather was great for an October wedding, the wedding party was crazy fun and the couple awesome… A wonderful wedding day in the capital!
We started our day at the groom house here in Orleans and then made our way to the mother of the bride’s house in the Gloucester area. The ceremony was held at the St Francois d’Assise church. We then re located to the downtown Ottawa byward market area for some family, wedding party and couple photos. The wedding party was great to work with and our couple was so down to earth! The night ended at the Hampton Inn in Ottawa. All the personal touches Tania and Francois added to their wedding day made this wedding so unique – the bride’s bright red shoes, the black feathers that were incorporated in the flower bouquets and in their table centerpiece and of course… Tania’s red gloves..
(Thank you to Tania & Francois – It was an honor to work with you! Joelle)

It’s dosen’t really look like spring yet, but, the snow will finaly melt soon ( we hope), because we already have families booked for outdoor sessions at our studio. This is an example of the family photos we do around the pond. Nicole and Greg were the first at our studio to have a 24×36 wall size printed from our first canon 10D digital camera. Now, 10 years later, they came back for an ” update” . They are a wonderful ” close” family and we always have fun photographing them. Refering to the first session at the museum of civilisation ( see the photo at the bottom of the post) their daughter Emily took a photo of my husband Guy during the photoshoot with my camera. It’s a great photo of Guy with an umbrella covering his Mamiya RZ67, loking up at the sky waiting for the rain to stop. I still have this 8×10 in my room. Great job Emily! ( I’ll try to find it and post it soon)
Here is a look at their session.
