Ottawa Corporate Portrait Photographer

January 6, 2010

…………………………………Couvrette Studio November 2009 Melanie Aitken………………………………….

Comparing photographers is a daunting task. Unfortunately you can`t compare what one photographer will do given identical conditions and the same subject….unless….a person is photographed a few days apart in the same room by three different photographers.
Melanie Aitken is a prominent local executive who is smart, pretty and has a great boardroom. Here`s my version and two local photographers shots.

I will let the photographs speak for themselves…

Winter Wedding at the Chateau Laurier

January 6, 2010

Remember that minus 30 day around Christmas… We were out with an adventurous couple shooting on Parliament Hill. Their Chateau Laurier winter wedding was a great challenge for both the couple and our equipment…it was an icy blast…but a blast to shoot.

National Dog Magazine Cover of an Ottawa Pomeranian

December 24, 2009

Photographing animals requires some special skills. I`m a cat person and I can tell you that
cats are the toughest. Next comes small dogs. Here is one amazing little Pom we shot for an
Ottawa breeder who was featured on the cover of this months Dog Digest. Shooting for magazine covers is tough since their technical standards are quite high. We love the challenge!

Sneak peek at our latest work.

I was in the Arctic last week covering the Olympic marathon, so our staff photographer Rachelle Latremouille shot this great cover for Ottawa Life. She still has lots of openings for next year …portraits, boudoir and weddings with a female touch and Francophone to boot!

Classic Black and Whites never go out of style.

October 13, 2009

A wedding coverage just isn`t complete unless we have one classic portrait of the bride and groom. Somehow, I think these will stand the test of time over some of the trendier wedding images and when it comes down to it, being able to shoot both is the key. These shots were done by one of our wedding staff photogs, Elena. Good work kiddo.

Dropping names….

October 9, 2009

The coolest thing about my career is the people I get to meet. I have photographed the weddings of Chief Justice Barbara McLachlin, designer Justina McCaffrey and socialites like Mike and Marlen Cowpland and the Potters. My commercial site shows portraits of every Prime Minister from Trudeau to Harper . I believe I am the only photographer who has been given this honor.

Ok…that was a long preamble…but what I really wanted to show you was a new site featuring some of my work with my friend Kim Campbell. Enjoy.

Thanks for the link Kim….hey I guess that must be what they call a testimonial…lol
