I offered to help Pat and Jen scout out some locations for the wedding photos. They’re looking for the less-conventional urban look, which I think is a great change from the clichéd tree and river shots that have been done to death. Since it’s mostly architectural, emphasis is placed on structures, textures, and colours. We spent a couple hours downtown, discovering areas of Ottawa that we’ve never found before (and Pat’s lived here all his life).

This was probably one of the most productive photo sessions I’ve ever had. I got a bunch of great shots, but there are too many to put into one entry here.

We had our wedding photos all done downtown too. It was much more ‘us’ than going to the arboretum and traipsing among the trees.

Your wedding shots are awesome. My favourites are the one of Brent’s shoes, and the one by Carmello’s with the small multi-coloured tiles.

Your hair, freckles, tattoos and magnets/buttons are just as awesomeness. Makes me wish I wasn’t in the wedding party, so I would get a chance to take some photos too.
