Styled Couples Shoot, Arboretum Ottawa

Combined with the high energy, awesome ladies at Grazie Gifts and a beautiful couple Courtney and Phil, I had the privellage of photographing a styled shoot at one of my favourite Ottawa spots along the river.

Our lucky contest winner, Courtney, was whisked far far away (ok, only if you are from Orleans is Richmond far) to hair and makeup by Vange at Hair Expectations in Richmond who did a wonderful job enhancing Courtney's natural beauty- and I would know, she is one of my most photographed clients who always does atleast 2 shoots a year with her amazing, big personality son.



Thank you to everyone who participated in creating the styling of the shoot.
It was a hot day and poor Grazie Girls were running that hand made table up and down the steepest tobaggan hill in Ottawa but it was an amazing, hilarious experience.
