Jessica and Sebastien’s wedding at Lago brought back so many great memories for us.  Only 5 short years ago, we also tied the know at this amazing venue and still can’t get enough of the cozy vibe it offers.   We have so much to say about Lago and the service given by Gyneya, Kim, and all of their incredible staff.  They are really next level and make the whole process so easy for everyone.  What really reeled us in was the evening ambiance and how the space just makes everyone feel so close.   You’ll see what we mean as you scroll through Jessica and Sebastien’s blog.

Jess and Seb came to us through a google search as many of our clients do.  What unfolded next was pretty funny!  As we began our Zoom call, we asked them to tell us about themselves.  Nothing strange about that right?  As Jessica goes on, she begins to tell us that she is a lawyer at Sicotte Guilbeault Law.  Ironically enough, Jess works there as well and as they continue talking, they both realize that their offices are right across the hall from each other!  How ironic!

Seb and I couldn’t help but shake our heads that they never noticed.  Thanks to covid, they had no idea they worked in the same office let alone share an office so close to each other.  That being said, our relationship with them began with a lot of laughter, as many consultations do and we went on to develop an instant bond.  This is so important for us as it builds the trust we need to establish with our clients so they have faith in what we do.

Enough blabbering on….enjoy their wedding!

Shauna & Rob’s Arboretum engagement session blew our socks off right from the start. Considering it was late fall, we really weren’t expecting the colours to be so vibrant.

Although we have done countless engagement sessions here, one thing we wanted to focus on was making it different than all previous sessions. We wanted it to be unique!

As we began their engagement session, they commented on how beautiful it was to our left.  Jess and I looked over and instantly realized we had never gone down that direction.  We decided to give it a shot.  How do you know if you don’t try right?  To our surprise, there were deep greens and a lovely path with trees arching over top.  We love finding nooks and crannies so this was right up our alley.  Bring on the dark and moody!

Fortunately Mother Nature played nice and as a result, these were some of our favourite photos of this short season. It goes without saying that Shauna and Rob were amazing to work with.  They were the main the reason their images stood out for us too.   Because they went along with every silly thing we asked of them and trusted us every step of the way, their photos are just beautiful.  We can’t emphasize how important this is.  One thing we are good at is making people feel comfortable in front of the camera.  By engaging couples and having them play silly games, we’re able to draw out natural emotion without them realizing it.   It’s these subtle details that allow us to make couples look their best for photos and it gives them a little reassurance along the way.

We hope you enjoy their photos!

Princess Louise Falls is one of Ottawa’s best hidden gems. It offers a unique location and endless possibilities for incredible engagement photos!  One would think that a location like this would lay deep in rural wooded areas, but in fact, it is just meters from St-Joseph road in Orleans.   That’s pretty awesome for us as we live just a few km from there.
