A few weeks ago I got an email from a couple saying that Wedding Bells had posted their wedding pictures on the website.  I remember first meeting with Josh and Kat and thinking they were one cool couple.  The wedding took place at Strathmere in Ottawa. I always find winter weddings quite romantic. The fire burning, a giant Christmas tree, butternut squash soup… oh man I can still taste the food!

Since the wedding I have become friends with Josh and Kat and we continue to stay in touch. There is nothing I like more than becoming friends with a couple after their wedding.

Thanks guys for such a memorable wedding!  Click below for a link to the feature.

As a wedding photographer one thing we must do is leave no stone unturned.  We must capture photos of everything that may have any meaning to a bride.  One of the most important details to capture is the bouquet.  The bouquet can be used in so many ways to create unique and captivating images.

Any aspiring wedding photographers out there!  Don’t forget the bouquet!  One of my favorite things to do is keep the bouquet in focus and have something or someone of significant meeting blurred out in the background.  This is done by using a wide open aperture and/or using a long focal length on your lens.

This shot was take just outside Ottawa at Strathmere!  Great place to get married!
