{Ashley & Richard} A great day for a wedding in Manotick

A few years back, we had the pleasure of meeting Ashley and Richard at another wedding we photographed, as Ashley was a bridesmaid...that was a great event in our books, and we were so happy when she contacted us to begin chatting about her upcoming wedding to Richard late last year.  When we then met up with her at a local wedding show, it felt like we were already old friends and I was taken by her Tory Burch bag (Brian, as is usual, didn't notice such a detail!).  She explained to us both that she loves good quality, and this led to a great discussion regarding her choices for wedding vendors and details.

{Chelsea & Scott} A Celtic wedding at Tudor Hall

I first met Chelsea and her amazing family at her brother's wedding back in the fall of 2009. Ivy didn't have the chance to join me as she was in Vancouver preparing to work at the Olympics the following year. I can tell you however that she was jealous of not being able to photograph all of the amazing details! When Chelsea messaged me on facebook to let us know that Scott had proposed, and she wanted us to photograph their wedding, we were both excited! Turns out Scott's family is just as nice and caring! From the details that Chelsea chose, the Champagne Highland Dancers acting as ushers, and then having three performances during the reception, and the absolute abundance of emotion throughout the day. The most memorable moment to me was Chelsea's reaction as Scott stepped out to reveal he was wearing a kilt. Chelsea's Scottish roots are important to herself and her family. Scott's effort into bringing in a kilt bearing her family's Tartan was a sign of just how much he loves Chelsea! Read more

{Heather & Tom} The Engagement

We first had the opportunity to meet Heather a few months ago at a Starbucks in Ottawa for an initial consultation.  She had had a long day interviewing vendors for their wedding, but despite us being the one of the last meetings of the day, that "connection" we all hope for with clients was evident from the get-go.  She told us about her chance first meeting with her fiance Tom, and even while regaling us with the hilarious details, her genuine love and adoration for him shone through.

{M & A} by Ottawa Wedding Photographer at the Britannia Yacht Club

Last weekend was a big one in the BH Photography camp--firstly, we booked two fabulous weddings back to back (Friday evening and Saturday) and the latter was our first same sex ceremony. We were both nervous and excited, because if you were to meet Matt and Alex, they are two very savvy guys who were planning the party of the year! That being said, our "first time" nerves were quickly settled at our consultation over coffee when the guys eagerly gave us some amazing ideas for our own wedding in October. Matt & Alex chose the Britannia Yacht Club as their venue and the staff did an amazing job! Every last detail was taken care of, however there was a rumour of one tablecloth being upside down. It was only a rumour... Read more

{Jamie & Matt} Ottawa Wedding Photographer at The Carleton Heritage Inn

Well, what a party! We had the honour of being Jamie & Matt's official wedding photographers this past weekend in Carleton Place. Jamie has been Ivanette's esthetician since we moved to Almonte and has become a great friend since. Matt and Jamie have been together for seven years, so when he proposed to Jamie last October she called us to make sure we were available for her wedding. Matt is a volunteer fireman with Carleton Place, and well, us firefighters can sure throw a party! I'm sure the good folks over at the Carleton Heritage Inn are going to need a break after two firefighter weddings in a row! Read more

{Karen & Duncan} Ottawa wedding Photographer at Holiday Inn Select

We had the pleasure of capturing Karen and Duncan's gorgeous wedding this Sunday. They are truly a match made in heaven! I can honestly say without a doubt that it would be impossible for anybody to be more in love than Karen and Duncan. They truly are life partners in every meaning of the word! Read more

{Jessica} Ottawa Wedding Photographer – Trash the Dress!

So every once in a while as a photographer, I just have to get out there and shoot for fun, stress free. One day last winter I came home to find three wedding dresses hanging in my kitchen, yes three! Just as I was wondering what was going on Ivanette walked around the corner and said "Look what I found on sale!". Yes, the famous words women use to justify everything. Turns out "on sale" was actually because the boutique was liquidating the previous season's samples, and she really did hit on a huge bargain! Read more

We are definitely proud to be their photographers and are looking forward to their wedding just outside of Ottawa in Renfrew! Read more
