Even after a decade as an Ottawa wedding photographer, I am still blown away with the way in which a photo session can perfectly capture the essence of a couple. From their personality to their energy to their love, it is so fun to see how Ottawa engagement sessions really capture a pair of soon-to-be newlyweds. {READ MORE}
Read MoreThis pair of high school sweethearts met way back in 2012, and from their first date, she was smitten. Andrea describes it this way: “as cliche as it sounds, I knew it was him from the start!” After dating for seven years, Mark surprised her with an unexpected proposal back in 2019 on a Caribbean cruise. Both sides of their families booked a trip together and had the best time, but little did Andrea know that it was just going to get better! {READ MORE}

Read MoreWhile getting to know Katie and Matt better during our shoot, I learned that they love to travel, go on walks, and their ideal date or outing is to hit up a patio for a drink (or four!) and then go to a cafe for a coffee. I love the connection they have and definitely resonate with their connection over quality time spent together.
Read MoreThe first year of your marriage goes by in such a blur. Most couples get the typical engagements taken prior to the wedding, and often a bridal/formal shoot or two, then the wedding day, and then that’s it. Your love story doesn’t end after the honeymoon! Documenting your continuing love in an anniversary session is a special way to capture your lasting relationship so you can reflect back years later and remember the happiness of that special time.
Read MoreWe decided on a campsite for Mev and Adam’s engagement photos before they had even chosen a wedding date or venue! Priorities people!

Then, to put the icing on the cake, the session ended up happening on Mev’s birthday. What better reason to get all dressed up and celebrate than engagement photos with the love of your life on your birthday?!

Read MoreCan I let you in on a little secret? My session with Krista and Conner was one of my all-time favorites. I know, I’ve said that before. But this time, I literally just had to walk out my back door and into this session. I really love the fields behind my house and I was so glad to be able to shoot a couple there! Ottawa summers are really some kind of magic. We had a beautiful night walking around private, wildflower-filled fields.

Or you find a great marker and save it for your next project.

That’s me with Jamie + Cody’s engagement session!! I’m so excited to share another session with these two :)

These two have both been competitively drag racing since they were very young (he was 6 when he started and she was 13!) and sort of knew each other off and on through the competitions. During the 2018 racing, they quickly hit it off and fell madly in love with one another.
