    Sometimes a shoot is dark and gloomy and that’s Sometimes a shoot is dark and gloomy and that’s okaaayyyy. We love them all the same! Especially if there’s a doggy involved. Too many images to share in this maternity session. As many of you know. I offer double-header maternity sessions where we start at home with some cozy/boudoir shots and then head out. We really wanted a sunset here so we did an extra day as well 🫣 but that will be for another post 🤍🫄
    The sunsets this fall were pretty epic. Combine th The sunsets this fall were pretty epic. Combine that with Montreal’s most beautiful hidden park and you get this engagement session with A & A. It was so much fun photographing these two. Loved the energy. I really tried to make it fit all in 20 Images but I failed. This is part☝🏼
    “The word “professional” comes from the Mid “The word “professional” comes from the Middle English word profes, which means “having professed one’s vows” The word’s etymology reflects the idea that professionals are people who have specialized in their trade and have vowed to perform it to the highest standard.” Keeping that in mind, Nowhere does it say that it’s associated to a certain look or style. However many, even in 2024, still think that “to be professional” means that you must dress and act a certain way. But you don’t. To me, to be a true professional, you must know your craft and be able to deliver amazing work consistently and with confidence. or put simply “to deliver the work without excuses”. By confidence, that also means staying true to yourself. That includes your values … and your style. When I photograph professionals, I want them to come with fun outfits that represent them. That could include colour, textures, jeans, smiles, laughes, funny faces, whatever you wish. You do you. Just like my girl @chelseadawn_lockstolashes here who wanted photos for her new site that reflected her more. This is part one of a fun shoot we did a little while back. The point is to attract the clients that have your same core values as an entrepreneur. So I say, if your look is what some would call “wild”, then be your wildest … and scare off those who don’t get it ;) Looking for photos for your own business? Call me. I have some studio time in the next months.

    What do you do when a couple messages you and asks What do you do when a couple messages you and asks if you would be willing to drive out 2 hours in the middle of nowhere to shoot their wedding? You say yes. Obviously. No GPS. No cellservice. And it was amazing. A & D planned their wedding perfectly. They were going to rent a few cabins in the National Park of Mont Tremblant and ask their friends to help. All the dishes and decor was thrifted over the last year and everyone was in charge of their own table’s centrepieces. The theme? SAILOR MOON. Man I miss that show. Heavy rain was expected this weekend but mother nature was so so good to us. we didn’t get a drop. Was so happy to be able to shoot this wedding. The atmosphere was so comforting and supportive. Even if the drive back was a litttllleeeee scary. There were times where I really thought I took a wrong turn and was lost. The bf really didn’t appreciate me calling him when I had 1 bar saying I didn’t know where I was seconds before it cut off again for another 30 minutes lol soooorryyyyyyy Was totally worth it though ;) A few vendors Hair and Makeup: @samsarabrown.muah Coordination: @lilyrosesevents
    I got an email a few days ago from one of my coupl I got an email a few days ago from one of my couple asking if I still had their photos. I shot their intimate wedding back in 2019 and they had never got around to downloading all the images. 2019?! So this is my reminder to you to GO DOWNLOAD ALL YOUR IMAGES If I sent them to you. Because technology is amazing… until it’s not. and Backup, backup, backup. If you don’t remember your link, lmk. I officially haven’t lost an image yet in my 15 years career but i won’t be able to say that forevvverrrr. Anyways, I can’t be mad because it forced me to go back and look back at the images! This couple decided to get married ON THEIR OWN at city hall in Ottawa and invited me to come along and photograph the event. When I say on their own.. I mean on their own. Meaning that once at city hall, we had to go ask a few people if they wanted to be a witness. HOW CUTE. I think we asked 3 people before this lovely lady (in the photos) joined us. The other witness you ask? Oh…. Well it was me! I signed the official papers! These are my favourite weddings. No fuss. No real timeline. No “traditions”. No real details. Just love. Anyywayyyssss we started their day getting ready at their brand new house. They hardly had any furniture and it was already perfectly lovely. We got ready, jumped in an uber, and headed over to city hall! Afterwards, we did a small session around town and back to Montreal for me! But not so fast! because THE NEXT DAY, they came to Old port to me and I photographed them AGAIN in other outfits. But that session will be for another day ;) I absolutely love this couple ! Enjoy !
    Part two of E&J in the old port when the lights tu Part two of E&J in the old port when the lights turned on! Fun fact. When I sent the photo gallery to the couple, it was the bride’s bachelorette party! She got the images while her friends were all in the living room having an amazing time and they decided to look at them all for the first time together! Apparently everyone mentioned how upbeat and smiley the groom was. Noone recognized him cause he’s actually an introvert!?!? COULD HAVE FOOLED ME!! My grooms (and fathers) are always having an amazing time at their shoots. So take notes from this groom… shoots are FUN! I 💯 will make him comfortable. It’s my job! ♥️ They are getting married in 3 days!
    It’s almost impossible to publish a full wedding It’s almost impossible to publish a full wedding in 20 images. But I’m going to try. L & M had a wedding at the new @hiltongardeninn_mtl_midtown where they had a beautiful covered “rooftop” terrasse for their ceremony. Gotta love spots that are full of light. Shout out to the MaîtreD there as he was totally there for the vendors as well as the guests. Such a delight. This isn’t before we went for photo in the old port starting from LAVAL. If you have the possibility to NOT do this.. Don’t. Because it took us over an hour (maybe 2?) to get there and back. Time that you could have had to do something else other than sitting in traffic. I can’t complain too much though because the photos turned out pretty cute. Was happy to sit in traffic to get these done. All in all an amazing day. This wedding was a good reminder to truly take the time to pick your wedding party and your vendors. Don’t pick anyone out of obligation but rather based on the vibe you want. Your wedding party should be there to SUPPORT your wishes, not challenge it. These people were ALL IN all day and it made the day so much easier on everyone. But the same goes for vendors. They should be a group of people that HELP YOU get the dream wedding that you want. People that are flexible and willing to work WITH you when things need to change up shouldn’t be your vibe. You can plan, plan, plan all your want but it’s important to remember that anything can happen at weddings. Things run late, people back out, timelines change. And your vendors should do not short than ADAPT. Never be shy to not book someone if your gut doubts something. It’s always right. I’ll need to blog this one to show the full range of photos. Especially how much fun this group had at the reception. A few vendors. Make up Artist @makeupbyvangie
