We can all agree that 2021 was a year. Yup, and it felt like it was a mite longer than a year.
COVID ebbed and flowed, and for photographers, that meant a lot of work – outside for the most part. We did a bit of indoor work towards the end of the year but the latest variant put a quick end to that.
As most amateur photogs, I did a bit of everything for clients: weddings, headshots, some boudoir, and of course a lot of cosplay.
Here are photos from every one of my photoshoots this year (I hope I didn’t miss any). Enjoy.
See you all in 2022.
Most photos taken with Fuji XT-3; a few set were done with Canon R5.

All Photos from the Ottawa minicon are up, and emails have been sent.
If you did not get your email, please check your SPAM folder, or let me know.
If you have not yet paid, no worries: your photos are good to – just need to confirm payment.
Currently we have no bouncebacks from wrong email addresses, so they should all be out there.
Editing took considerably longer than I expected because… the background was terrible. Not going to do that again. Don’t know what kind of background we’ll use next time, but it won’t be that. You live and you learn!
Treat yourself to a photoshoot you’ll remember.
We offer lovely location shoots in hotels in Aylmer, QC and Ottawa, ON; you deserve to treat yourself to an empowering photoshoot where we’ll make you look and feel the best you’ve ever been.
Why hotels? they are safe, clean neutral spaces that don’t need to be decluttered. There’s no baggage other than what you bring with you for the shoot. They take you out of your mundane life and elevate the mood to make it easier to make photos you’ll remember for a long time.
We offer a basic one hour shoot with dozens of fully retouched shots available digitally – no extra charge to choose photos – we also offer an album option and prints if you prefer hardcopy.
Take a look at some of our past boudoir shoots on Pixieset (this site is very secure, but we also offer non-internet storage of your images if you prefer). We set it up with a password, and no rights to download the images. We also set it up with a password – “tasty” to prevent bots from running amok.

AND FOR THAT WE APOLOGIZE
I recently decided to spend a bit more time looking at the website. Honestly, I hadn’t looked at it in months, and no big shock, it turns out the Wordpress theme I was using was no longer working. The website where i bought it, years ago, was just gone without a trace. The site was just broken links. Who knows how long it was like that?
This rendered hundreds of posts non-functional. I quickly loaded up a functional theme, but all of the options I set up with the old theme no longer work – I’ll have to go through all of the old posts and fix them one by one, or archive them. Ehh, I might never do it.
Websites are passé, don’t you know.
Honestly, I haven’t been keeping this site up to date as much as I should because the vast majority of contacts from potential clients come from social media – Facebook, Instagram, Twitter, 500px, or by referral from clients.
To get a better idea of the kinds of photos we like to make, I check out my social media sites:
FACEBOOK — INSTAGRAM — TWITTER — 500PX
We do a variety of photography: cosplay, weddings, events (family and corporate), headshots and boudoir. Drop us a line to get pricing and to book your photoshoot!
We are booking wedding2022 and onward. 2022 is starting to fill up, and we even have a few 2023 on the books – it looks like weddings are coming back in a big way!
We offer a photography experience that is low on stress but that gives you images you’ll cherish. We share your photos with you on Pixieset, a service that allows you to control who sees your images, and that lets you decide how to share, print and download your memories.
We weren’t very active in 2021 but we did manage to sneak in a few lovely, if small weddings. Everyone involved paid very close attention to pandemic restrictions, mask wearing and social distancing. Going forward, we intend to keep a close eye on pandemic safety at every event we attend.
Our pricing starts at $200 CDN per hour, with a $500 minimum. Additional charges apply for travel time and extra photographers. You get the best value if you book us for the whole day with additional photographer(s): $2500 for 10-12 hours of coverage, separate prep for both wedding parties, coverage of the the ceremony, reception and dancing. This package also includes an engagement/couple photo session prior to the wedding.
