We did Kim and Daniel’s engagement shoot last fall in Gatineau Park and Old Chelsea area. Wandering around, taking pictures, we ended up in someone’s front yard and finding noone around to ask permissions from, starting taking pictures. Ten minutes later we turn around to find the owner and his dog staring at us. We were still red faced, contemplating running, when the owner asked us to follow him into the backyard. We thought some more and then followed him silently, the dog behind us. When we got to his backyard, he pointed straight out and said, “You won’t find this view of Gatineau Park from anywhere else” and went in his house. We relaxed and clicked away happily before bidding him adieu and heading deeper into the Gatineau Park. Here are some of our favourite shots from the e-shoot.

Back in December, we wrote about our first sponsor child Irfan. At the same time we also sponsored a girl, but the correspondance from Plan Canada about the girl got lost somewhere in the courier world. So we followed up by phone and Plan Canada sent us another information package about Rabia!

Rabia is 12 years old, lives in Pakistan with her parents and four other siblings. You can find out a little more about Rabia by reading the text in the following images.

To our very pleasant surprise, in today’s mail we received hand written letters from both Irfan and Rabia. Irfan had some help writing his letter because, according to the letter, his writing isn’t legible. However, Rabia wrote the letter by herself! We’re so proud of both of them! We can’t wait to write back.

(Sorry about the quality of the iPhone pics; We were too excited and eager to blog about it!)

Last night we covered Amit and Poonam’s wedding reception at Brookstreet Hotel in Kanata. Of all the hotels in Ottawa and nearby, I think this one is probably our absolute favourite so far in terms of its decor, location and surrounding area. Tons of locations in and around the hotel make for some great shots. If you’re getting married in Ottawa, and don’t mind looking out a bit west for your venue, definitely check out Brookstreet Hotel for your wedding.

For now, here is our favourite shot from yesterday’s shoot. Enjoy!

Hello Internet! It’s been a while since we posted on the blog. Sorry about the break, but we’ve just been so darn busy with editing and prep’ing for the thick of this wedding season.

Today we wanted to share some collages from Abhi and Sheetal’s wedding we did last in Toronto. Looks like fun doesn’t it? Enjoy!
