On a beautiful summer day, we were on our way to Aylmer to start the wedding day photographs with Charbel. His beautiful parent’s house provided the perfect backdrop for the groom’s coverage. Charbel was handsome, cool, and, calm and collected. He was anxious to marry his true love, Rana. On our way to the bride’s home in Ottawa, we felt honored to have been chosen once again as their wedding photographers, but a little sad that Rana was the last of five children to get married in the family. When we arrived and saw Rana, she was so beautiful and radiant; we already knew the photos were going to be amazing.
Our job as photographers is to observe and capture the moments that help the client relive their special day. The stars must have been lined up perfectly for Rana and Charbel that day, because everything was perfect. From the ceremony at Sts. Peter & Paul Church, to the family photos at Kingsview Park, along with the bridal party and couple’s photos downtown Ottawa. Everything was “timed to T”…to be expected after five weddings in the family. The locations for the photos had to match their style, therefore, the Byward market and Chateau Laurier offered the perfect spots to achieve the look desired. Charbel and Rana are kind, smart, beautiful and classy. The” timeless, classic and elegant” style of photography was the best match for them. The wedding reception at the Fairmont Chateau Laurier was nothing short of extraordinary with memorable speeches, live entertainment with dance groups and belly dancers and great food. Here are the highlights of the day! To see highlights of their engagement sessions, click on the links below:
