Ottawa Fashion Headshot




We shot this for a makeup salon in Saudi Arabia... How did I get a client in Saudi Arabia...that's a long story. Our model btw was from Angies in Ottawa...very nice working with them as always.

Motorcycle photography at our studio in Ottawa

Owning a large Centretown studio brings us lots of interesting shoots. This motorcycle was shot
for a major US magazine. Lighting this much chrome without any reflections,priceless....hey,don`t try this at home kids.

Ottawa Fashion Model Headshot.


I started my biz by shooting hundreds of model portfolios and its fun to return to that once in a while. Its kind of nice to know that my shots have launched the careers of some very famous people who have left Ottawa to make it big in Tokyo, Paris and LA. My kids are always amazed to learn that I did the original headshots of Shannon Tweed that were featured in Playboy and that Alanis Morrisette sat in on my shoots when she yearned to be a photographer. I remember advising her to stick with music...

Nowadays I still shoot portfolios on occasion for actors, models and musicians. They let me get my creative side out. We are always keen to shoot cool ideas and offer aspiring models and actors reasonable rates since we know how tough it is to get a good start in the acting and modelling business. (my two daughters are at it too).

Ottawa Fashion Portfolio Shoot


Having a large studio affords me lots of opportunity to shoot big groups but also lets me
create more action in sessions. This is from a recent model portfolio shoot.

My fifteen seconds of fame...lol

An Ottawa U student, Hamed Tinafer decided to make ME his term project...and created a Wiki
page that tells the tale. Funny, he never mentioned my skills at poker and golf...oh well. But seriously, I was blown away by all the work he put into it...hope he got an A!

Welcome to Ottawa Commercial Photographer Paul Couvrette's Blog!


Welcome to my Commercial Photography Blog....

No, thats not me, its of course Rick Mercer in a shot I did for CBC this year at the Next Great
Canadian Prime Ministers shoot. It was great to see that the CBC began using it as one of its
key shots in promoting the show and Rick too.
