Ottawa Wedding + Newborn Photographers who know what's it like to be awkward in front of the camera
Last night we had the absolute honour of covering the Make-A-Wish Wine for Wishes event at the Shaw Centre (formerly the Ottawa Convention Centre). It was such am amazing event for an even more amazing organization, and to make things even better, it was loads of fun!
Normally our sneak peeks consist of only one or two photos but I just couldn’t narrow it down.

Our weekends this year are stuffed full of great events, both business and personal. The other weekend was a personal event, well it was actually two because my sister-in-law is awesome and lined up both of her children’s events in one weekend (thanks again!).
I have shot the DST Christmas party since 2010 (see the previous years here, here and here) and it gets better and better each year.
This year had a great Christmas ‘tree’ decorating contest and other fun games, great door prizes and fantastic food. But the highlight of the night is always the dancing! This year had the obligatory Gangnam style and a bunch of handstands too. I know I said it last year, but these DST folk sure know how to party!!

My Dad’s birthday was a few weeks ago, and this year he turned the big 6-0.
We were initially thinking of throwing Dad a big bash for his 60th birthday, but we were quickly told that he didn’t want anything large. So instead, we planned a simple, surprise dinner with our immediate family. We drove down from Ottawa and met my brother and his family and then drove to our Parents’ house. We ordered Chinese takeout and afterwards ate some delicious cake. And of course, Jackson helped Grampa blow out his candles. We then had to relight them multiples time so he could blow them out again and again.
I spent most of the afternoon making and decorating the cake to have the Habs symbol on it as it is Dad’s favourite team. In fact, normally we take a photo of Dad (or Grampa) and Jackson in their matching Habs Jerseys, but Jackson has outgrown all of the ones he has, I guess we will need to invest in some larger ones for him.
Most of the evening we sat around and chatted, while Jackson ran around chasing the dog and just generally acting like a two year old. It was a fantastic family dinner!!
As I already mentioned Jackson’s second birthday was last week. Below is a little sneak peek from the second phase of his birthday party.
It may seem like an odd photo to post as the sneak peek, but my brother showed me that Jackson knows how to ‘say cheese’ now, which is adorable!!
