Anne Marie & Will's Ottawa Parliament Engagement Session

Anne Marie and Will are an awesome couple who I had the pleasure of photographing in a Wedding party September 2012 at Strathmere Inn!
When I suggested a sunset engagement shoot, Anne Marie said that was exactly what she was going for and leading up to the day I kept my eye on sunset time; I'd like to think we got pretty lucky with a nice clear day where the sunset light was beautiful.

Can't wait for their upcoming beautiful country themed wedding at Lone Star Ranch. They have a few really unique ideas including a ton of decorated jars, so Anne Marie sent out a message to save your (nice) pasta jars, so I show up to the session with a bag of jars!

Why do an engagement session?

With today's use of digital cameras and "selfies" most couples wont have professional photography before their wedding day. It's a great way to get to know how  you like to be photographed, what your "good side" is, and to develop inside jokes and details that will help photography run smoothly on the wedding day so you use your time wisely!
Also, you can use these images for a different spin on the traditional guestbook, on a wedding website, or to display in your home.
