Amore ~ Camille and Pierre’s Sneak Peek

Camille and Pierre were married yesterday in a beautiful ceremony at their church in Ottawa. The day was perfect and although it was a little chilly, Camille and Pierre braved the cold for some beautiful portraits among the flowers at the ornamental gardens in the experimental farm.

Camille and Pierre, it was truly an honour to capture your day, and your obvious love for each other.

If this isn’t love, I don’t know what is…

Camille and I both adore weeping willow trees so we had to include this one that is on their church grounds for a shot (left).

Their wedding colour was purple and we were lucky enough to discover these beautiful purple flowers still in bloom!

Have a wonderful day,

Love in the Byward Market ~ Laura and Sean’s Sneak Peek

The other night I wasn’t sure if we were going to get rained out yesterday, but when I woke up to blue skies and even sunshine, I knew that the weather network never gets it right – and that’s ok with me!

Laura and Sean spend almost every Sunday perusing the market for the perfect fruits and vegetables to cook with, and then spend the afternoon together cooking up a storm. So it was fitting that yesterday morning I spent some time in the Byward Market and around downtown Ottawa with Laura and Sean for their engagement session. We had a blast and pretty much laughed the whole time.

These two are such wonderful people and I had such a lovely time walking, chatting and of course, photographing them!

Laura and Sean, thank you for sitting on damp things and getting a bit muddy – it was definitely worth it I think!

I just adored these cute little hand painted mini pumpkins, so of course we had to incorporate them into the ring shots!

I just love the colours of fall. We were so lucky that so many different coloured leaves were still on the trees.

Laura’s favourite colour is blue and Sean incorporated this into her engagement ring. There is a teensy blue stone on one side, and this will match her wedding band which has the same stone on the other side. Beautiful and so unique!

Have a wonderful day,

Lots of animals + an amazing couple = love! ~ Melanie and Jeff’s Sneak Peek

You may remember Melanie and Jeff from their wedding I photographed last year. Melanie emailed me a few months ago with the idea of a “farm session”. Melanie and Jeff live on a farm where Melanie runs a horse camp. I jumped at the idea and we had such a wonderful time yesterday evening.

I got to play with their two dogs, Calvin and Levi as well as Melanie’s horse and saw their sheep, ponies, teensy barn kittens and even some frogs jumping around in the field – it was quite the evening!

Here are way too many sneak peek images, just because I couldn’t choose my favourites!

Meet Levi and Calvin. They are beagles and they are adorable – they just wanted you to know that.

A girl and her horse. Melanie has had McCadden since she was four – McCadden is now 19 years old and is a beautiful sight to see.

Fave.

McCadden really wanted to eat the yummy green grass and was very happy to let me take this shot. She just munched and munched away. This was probably her favourite shot…because I wasn’t trying to make her ignore the delicious grass! haha

Now it’s time for Jeff’s baby, the tractor. I was really excited because I got to ride in it! It’s the first time I’ve ever been in a tractor and it was awesome. We went like 20kph!! haha

I love how the light dances around them in this one.

Have a wonderful day,

100 Floating Lanterns ~ Vikki and Dan’s Wedding Sneak Peek

If you looked up into the skies of Ottawa last night and saw floating lanterns, you were witness to an amazing event! Vikki and Dan’s wedding was filled with love, laughter and well wishes sent up in the air with over 100 floating Chinese Lanterns.

Vikki and Dan had an intimate ceremony at the Rockcliffe Lookout with a touching ceremony performed by the illustrious Alan Viau. We then proceeded to the Rockeries for some portraits and then headed to a small but wonderful (and delicious) dinner at The Pantry in the Glebe. The evening was wrapped up with a fantastic party at the RA Centre in Riverside South and was topped off with the release the lanterns.

All in all, an amazing day and I am so honoured to have been chosen to be a part of it.

The lanterns were breathtaking. As everyone let them go, they floated up into the night sky and looked like stars when they got high enough. Such an amazing thing to witness, and photograph!

Have a wonderful day,

Superhigh Swinging! ~ C. Family Sneak Peek

This afternoon I got to play in the park with the C. Family. We had a great time running, climbing and swinging.

First up, the whole family outside of their beautiful home where they just moved last week! I must say I was really impressed as there was not a moving box in sight!

And of course, each kiddo separately doing what they do best.

Swinging.

Climbing & chatting about ice cream (we both love mint chocolate chip!).

Being awesome and simply beautiful.

Lots more soon!

Have a wonderful day,
