Puppy Love ~ Barb and Chris’ Engagement Sneak Peek

Posted on May 19, 2012 at 9:00 am by · No Comments

Before I even met Barbara I knew that I’d love her. Barbara’s mother was helping with the search for a photographer for Barb and Chris’ September 2011 wedding and the inquiry started out something along the lines of “My daughter also love dogs and shoes!” and I knew I had to meet her!

Sure enough, Barb is wonderful and so his her awesome fiancé, Chris, as well as their super adorable fur-kids, Ava and Lily.

When we were talking about their engagement session I asked them if there was somewhere special they wanted to have the session and Barb knew right away a place that would be perfect. We had the session in the woods around her parents’ house in the small town of Carp, Ontario – where she grew up, and where they still walk their dogs today while visiting.

As we walked into the woods yesterday, Barb mentioned that she had a few places in mind for us to shoot in and sure enough, they had also thought enough ahead to bring a ladder into the forest to climb one of the trees!

Their dogs were so excited to run and play through the woods, even though Ava, their 3 year old white boxer, had just had surgery to remove a porcupine quill and wasn’t supposed to be playing around with Lily, their 10 month old Cane Corso Mastiff. Of course this meant we had to separate them every 5 minutes but they had a blast, including racing through the muck and mud…repeatedly.

Thank you Barb and Chris for climbing trees, getting eaten alive by mosquitoes and for loving the idea of having the session for your dogs just as much as for you.

This may be one of my favourite images ever. This wasn’t set up at all, I was photographing Barb and Chris and saw this little face peering out at me through their legs. So cute!!

Barb’s ring is a family heirloom. It was Chris’ grandmother’s ring and both of them feel so special to have such a beautiful history in their engagement ring.

And this is what dogs look like after a session with me. Sleepy sleepy. Ava could barely keep here eyes open!

Evening Light and Love ~ Stephanie and Jeff’s Engagement Sneak Peek

Posted on May 15, 2012 at 3:22 pm by · No Comments

I am so happy that the weather has warmed up and that I can once again begin to schedule sessions in the evening. This is one of my favourite times to shoot, as the sun is setting and the warm day is cooling off a tad – and that was exactly how it was last night for Stephanie and Jeff’s engagement session along the Ottawa Parkway.

While the pink blossoms were falling off the trees gently around us, these two followed me through tall grasses while we “off-roaded” and I am so happy with the images we were able to capture.

I am so excited about Stephanie and Jeff’s upcoming wedding at a brand new wedding location in the Gatineau Hills called Le Belvedere. These two are such wonderful people and I just can’t wait to capture their wedding day with them.

Picnic in the Snow ~ Jen and Dan’s Engagement Sneak Peek

Posted on Jan 15, 2012 at 7:46 pm by · 1 Comment

It’s not every day that you meet a couple who wants to do their portraits in the winter – but Jen and Dan aren’t your regular couple. These two are such wonderful people and Jen and I talked about a winter engagement session at our very first meeting at our wedding consultation!

Needless to say, yesterday was a very cold day in Ottawa but these two were such troopers. We began at the Bank of Canada and then headed out around downtown Ottawa and the Supreme Court of Canada for some hot chocolate and a pseudo picnic in the snow!

Jen and Dan – thank you for freezing your toes off and getting covered in snow. I had such a blast with you and I hope you did as well!

The Perfect Pair ~ Kurtis and Bailey’s Sneak Peek

Posted on Nov 13, 2011 at 5:27 pm by · 1 Comment

Yesterday I had the honour and pleasure of capturing Kurtis and Bailey’s wedding day.

Every bit about the day was perfect and completely them – down to the last detail. Even though it was a bit chilly, the sun even came out and blue sky emerged – it was picture perfect.

These two got married in Almonte and we took their portraits in Pakenham. I just love photographing in the countryside.

We even stopped by the plot of land that these two lovebirds are hoping to build their first home on.

Kurtis and Bailey, I had such a wonderful day with you two yesterday!
