Catching moments as they happen...

I have always wanted to attend a Jason Groupp workshop in New York City. I have watched Jason Angelini hang with Groupp for an awesome 1-on-1 session and was GREEN with envy. In hopes of being able to work with Groupp in his October workshop, I am entering this image for consideration by Jason's team. Many of those that follow my Flickr feed have voted this as one of their 2009 favs-and you may also recognize it from my banner as one of my favs too..What do you think?

T and N - At the Schoolhouse-Ottawa wedding photographer

If you follow my blog, you will remember T an N and their little miss G- I have been looking forward to this wedding from the moment I met this amazing couple. This amazing wedding was steeped in Scottish tradition right down to the smallest details. The couple took part in a traditional rose ceremony for their mothers, who were each given a rose preceding the ceremony. The vows were so touching I found myself teary and unable to see through my lens. Congratulations T, N and little G.
More pics still to come...

WHAT THE BRIDE SAID: WICKED! AWESOME! From the very first time that I met Melanie right to the very last picture that she took at our wedding she was phenomenal. Fun, energetic, great attention to detail, budget saavy, those are just a few of the words that I would use to describe Melanie. She made a girl who was absolutely terrified of the camera feel like a woman who felt sexy, stunning and hot on her wedding day! I would absolutley recommend Melanie for your wedding pictures! This will not be the end of the pictures that you will be taking for us. Family photos should be next and then, God willing, some maternity shots!

Family Portrait] Ottawa Family Photographer

S and her adorable little people make up a new family today than they did last week. This was a unique session for me in that I was able to become part of redefining their family unit and strengthen their sense of their lives together as they move forward. Thank you S for giving me this opportunity to work with you at this very important milestone in your life.
