Big Brother Owen was a giant ball of energy throughout this entire session and he reminded me so much of my own nephew Jackson, bouncing off the walls and all. He was also trying to be super helpful when it came to making his new little sister, Layla, happy and comfortable. I loved getting to see the bond growing between these new siblings! ⠀ .⠀ Also, how can you possibly resist these chubby cheeks?!⠀ .⠀⠀ .⠀⠀ .⠀⠀ #sbeachphoto #stephaniebeachphotography #Ottawa #instalove #instafamily #instababy #instanewborn #dowhatyoulove #lovewhatyoudo #myhappyplace #newbornphotography #lifestylenewbornsession #lifestylenewbornphotography #OttawaFamilyPhotographer #OttawaFamilyPhotography #sbfamily #lifestylefamilysession

I get to see some truly gorgeous rings, but Andrea's ring was really unique. It looked just like a half-diamond wedding band, but the diamond section was flexible! This was obviously so it could flow around any engagement ring, but for me it meant I could get her rings to stand up inside of Anthony's so easily! I loved it!!⠀ .⠀ What's your favourite style of wedding band? Diamonds or no diamonds, white or yellow gold? ⠀ .⠀⠀ .⠀⠀ .⠀⠀ #sbeachphoto #stephaniebeachphotography #sbbride #sbweddings #stephaniebeachbride #stephaniebeachweddings #sbcouple #stephaniebeachcouple #Ottawa #OttawaWeddingPhotographer #dowhatyoulove #lovewhatyoudo #findthelight #lovethelight #myhappyplace #wedding #ottawawedding #EngagedinOttawa #ringbling #detailsdetailsdetails #itsallinthedetails #weddingrings #diamondring

So a little bit of my driving adventures before we get into the real post - not more than 30 minutes before I arrived for Kirsten + Kyle's engagement session, my car was pretty much in a ditch and needed to be pulled out by the super nice farmer Paul and his tractor. So to say that driving down to Perth was a bit treacherous at times is a little bit of an understatement.⠀ .⠀ But it was so a million per cent worth it as these two, in this location, with all this gorgeous fresh, falling snow was absolute heaven and so worth the drive!!!⠀ .⠀ Check out the post on our blog: https://blog.stephaniebeachphotography.com/⠀ (or through the link in our bio)⠀ .⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ .⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ .⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ #sbeachphoto #stephaniebeachphotography #EngagedinOttawa #winterengagementsession #sbbride #sbweddings #stephaniebeachbride #stephaniebeachweddings #sbcouple #stephaniebeachcouple #Ottawa #OttawaWeddingPhotographer #instalove #instabeauty #instanature #dowhatyoulove #lovewhatyoudo #findthelight #lovethelight #myhappyplace #sbengagement #stephaniebeachengagement #engaged #bridetobe #groomtobe #Ottawaengagement #shesaidyes #Perthweddingphotography #Perthengagementsession

Dave and I don't really do Valentine's day or Valentine's day gifts. ❤️⠀ .⠀ We do sometimes do the day after Valentine's day though --- you know the day when all the chocolate is half price. That's the day I (and my pocket book) like!⠀ .⠀ How about you - are you a Valentine's Day kind of person?❤️⠀ .⠀ .⠀ .⠀ #sbeachphoto #stephaniebeachphotography #Ottawa #OttawaWeddingPhotographer #ValentinesDay #ValentinesDay2019 #discountchocolateisthebestchocolate

When I first sat down to write this blog post, I thought I might have a hard time figuring out what to write about. I have worked Naomi + Adam and their amazing family so many times now, I thought I must have said all there is to say! But luckily, they are so awesome that each and every time I get to hang out with them I learn a bit more about them. And better than that, I get to see their girls' personalities develop and shine and it really is so truly awesome to witness!⠀ .⠀ Check out the post on our blog: https://blog.stephaniebeachphotography.com/⠀ (or through the link in our bio)⠀ .⠀⠀ .⠀⠀ .⠀⠀ #sbeachphoto #stephaniebeachphotography #Ottawa #instalove #instafamily #instababy #instanewborn #dowhatyoulove #lovewhatyoudo #myhappyplace #newbornphotography #lifestylenewbornsession #lifestylenewbornphotography #OttawaFamilyPhotographer #OttawaFamilyPhotography #sbfamily #lifestylefamilysession #sbcouple

Why does your photographer need your invitation? For stuff like this!! I created this image for Kristen + Chris using her shoes, invitation, a little ribbon from my detail bag and her dress! That's right, everything is literally sitting on part of Kristen's dress (which is sitting on top of the hotel bed).⠀ .⠀ Want wedding detail images to include your stationary? There are two options for #sbcouples - either put a set aside and keep them handy for me on the big day, or mail us a set and I will bring them along!⠀ .⠀ .⠀ .⠀ #sbeachphoto #stephaniebeachphotography #sbbride #sbweddings #stephaniebeachbride #stephaniebeachweddings #sbcouple #stephaniebeachcouple #Ottawa #OttawaWeddingPhotographer #dowhatyoulove #lovewhatyoudo #findthelight #lovethelight #myhappyplace #wedding #ottawawedding #EngagedinOttawa #detailsdetailsdetails #itsallinthedetails

Oh my goodness guys - Shannon + Erin's wedding was A.freaking.MAZING!! Honestly, everything about it made me so deliriously happy! And it did so in the windchill-filled, -40 degree, winter weather, it was just that good!⠀ .⠀ But in case you don't believe me, you should definitely go check out their blog post because this wedding day just got better and better as the day went along.⠀ #marrymrmurphy⠀⠀ .⠀⠀ Check out the post on our blog: https://blog.stephaniebeachphotography.com/⠀ (or through the link in our bio)⠀ .⠀⠀⠀⠀ Venue: @templessugarbush⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Prep Venue: @brookstreetott⠀⠀ Hair: @topknothairstylist⠀⠀ Make-Up: @artistrybyjacquie⠀⠀ Bridal Gown: @sindersbridalhouse⠀⠀⠀⠀ Bridesmaid's Dresses: @davidsbridal⠀⠀ Bridesmaid's Wraps: #bridalbyalmor⠀⠀ Groom & Groomsmen's Suits: @tiptoptailors⠀⠀ Bouquets & Boutonnieres: Aunt Mary Jane 💐⠀⠀ Donuts: @mavericksdonuts⠀⠀ Officiant: Allison Adamovitis from @allseasonsweddings⠀⠀ Invitation Designer: @ehueston⠀⠀ Wedding Favours: #FergusonTreeNursery⠀⠀ DJ: @mobilemusicservices⠀⠀ Photography: @sbeachphoto⠀⠀ .⠀⠀ .⠀⠀ .⠀⠀ #sbeachphoto #stephaniebeachphotography #sbbride #sbweddings #stephaniebeachbride #stephaniebeachweddings #sbcouple #stephaniebeachcouple #Ottawa #OttawaWeddingPhotographer #instalove #instanature #dowhatyoulove #lovewhatyoudo #findthelight #lovethelight #myhappyplace #EngagedinOttawa #hitched #groom #bride #married #justmarried #wedding #winterwedding #winterinottawa #winterbride

I am, without a shadow of a doubt, a dog person! To be more precise - I am a puppy person because I call all dogs, no matter their age or size, puppies! Don't get me wrong, cats are great, and I love watching videos of them pushing things off tables for seemingly no reason (tell me I'm not the only one?!), but dogs will always have my heart! Especially retrievers like Hunter here! Their fluffiness and that permanent smile on their face just gets me every time!!⠀ .⠀ How about you 🐕 🐶 or 🐈 🐱?⠀ .⠀ .⠀ .⠀ #sbeachphoto #stephaniebeachphotography #sbbride #sbweddings #stephaniebeachbride #stephaniebeachweddings #sbcouple #stephaniebeachcouple #Ottawa #OttawaWeddingPhotographer #instalove #instabeauty #dowhatyoulove #lovewhatyoudo #myhappyplace #sbengagement #stephaniebeachengagement #engaged #Ottawaengagement #shesaidyes #EngagedinOttawa #detailsdetailsdetails #itsallinthedetails #petsatengagementsessions #dogsatengagementsession #instadog #instaretriever

So I've had some interesting driving adventures while getting to the last few engagement sessions I've shot. For example, on the way to the @millofkintail for Natasha + Jon's session, I popped a tire. I was getting onto the highway and bam, no more tire. 🚙 Luckily, since I plan to arrive early to pretty much everything, the half hour it took to fix the tire and switch vehicles with Dave (I didn't really want to drive around on the donut for the rest of the day), meant I was only about 10 minutes late for the actual session. But boy-oh-boy, it really wasn't the way I wanted to start things off. Geeze!⠀ .⠀ But I will say, getting to spend the next couple of hours with these two sweethearts made everything better! And even better, the weather ended up cooperating for us and it was actually pretty warm so standing around without their coats wasn't too bad. 🙂⠀ .⠀ Hopefully your driving adventures this winter have been far less interesting and frustrating than mine! Side note, anyone need a tire with a huge gash in it?⠀ .⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ .⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ .⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ #sbeachphoto #stephaniebeachphotography #EngagedinOttawa #winterengagementsession #sbbride #sbweddings #stephaniebeachbride #stephaniebeachweddings #sbcouple #stephaniebeachcouple #Ottawa #OttawaWeddingPhotographer #instalove #instabeauty #instanature #dowhatyoulove #lovewhatyoudo #findthelight #lovethelight #myhappyplace #sbengagement #stephaniebeachengagement #engaged #bridetobe #groomtobe #Ottawaengagement #shesaidyes #millofkintail
