Headshots with the talented John Dapaah

Last weekend, I had the pleasure of shooting head shots for John, a professional pianist and music teacher whose wedding I also covered last summer (see Kristina & John's Tabaret Hall wedding). The shoot was located at the Steinway showroom in Ottawa, where John was able to use one of their impressive grand pianos for both his portraits and video recordings. In addition to shots of John, we were also able to include two of his students in the photos- budding protegees!  Here are a few excerpts from our shoot:.

Kristina & John :: Royal Ottawa Country Club and Tabaret Hall Wedding

Last weekend, I had the opportunity to capture the wedding of Kristina & John. This couple has such a close-knit family and church network and their ceremony was such a beautiful testament to their relationship and faith. So many touching moments were witnessed, where during a number of instances, the groom was moved to tears. I had such a great time shadowing them throughout the weekend and so lucky to have had such a stunning couple to photograph. Their love for each other really shows through their pictures. Below are a few photos from both the engagement ceremony and wedding. To enlarge, click on the photo. Hope you all enjoy!

Cheers,

Sarah

Ottawa Family Photographer :: Tessa's 1st Birthday Party

When Meg and Ray contacted me to cover their daughter Tessa's first birthday party, I was quite excited. Meg had a great vision for her "The Very Hungry Caterpillar" themed celebration and  had a lot of amazing do-it-herself, decorating ideas.  Meg and Ray threw a very spirited party, which even included a reading of the popular story book. They have a great set of friends and family and everyone was super excited to be celebrating Tessa's milestone. Here are few photos from the day. Enjoy!
