This year at Wed by Hand we are featuring several lovely photographers all with their own unique style. Photography plays a huge role in how you can create, document and remember your big day. Without further ado I present to you our photographer roster!
AMBphoto by Anne-Marie Bouchard With ten years of photography experience, Anne-Marie decided in 2009 to start her own business. Working weddings gives her the opportunity to blend “all sorts of photography: landscapes, portraits, macro, high speed, candid, you name it – you get ALL this when you photograph a wedding.” All of these styles come together during the challenging, surprising and exciting event that is a wedding. Having worked in the business for many years has taught Anne-Marie the important lesson that “It’s ok to say no. I’m not the right fit for everyone and everyone is not the right fit for me.” This is because she understands how important it is to really build a relationship with the couple and be able to capture their magic. The days are long and the editing process can be longer but for Anne-Marie one of the best parts of shooting weddings is getting to know the couple, hearing how they first met, and watching them to fall in love all over again through the lens of her camera. As the official photographer of Wed By Hand, many of the photos you will see from our show come from AMBphoto.
Becca Wallace Photography Blending fine art work with commercial wedding work pulls together a unique set of images that can themselves be seen as works of art. Processed images are combined with watercolors, pastels, and resin resulting in enhanced details, colors, shapes and textures within each photograph. Believing that “everyone should have access to excellent, high quality wedding photos,” means that she has packages to offer couples with any budget. Becca Wallace Photography is artistic with a personal touch.
{First Kiss Films} Inspired by her father and getting an early start filming her first wedding at the age of 14, its no wonder that {First Kiss Films} creates unique multimedia for your wedding day. {First Kiss Films} specializes in hand-cranked 16mm and super 8mm film. In a world where much of our photography and videography have gone digital, owner Bridget's use of 8 and 16mm film is a truly special way to capture your wedding. The cameras capture onlooker’s attention with the classic sound, originality and beautiful designs. The film is processed, digitally edited and transferred and then charmingly packaged in a chic DVD tin. As one of only five companies across Canada creating lifestyle films using solely vintage cameras, not only will the experience be completely unique, but you can be sure that your wedding film will preserve the emotions and energy nostalgic to the retelling of your wedding day.
Monique Simone PhotographyUsing an editorial aesthetic to stylize her shoots, Monique Simone photography helps to put her clients at ease while providing a natural, fun, fresh set of photos. Offering personalized services such as hand-made books, custom production and retouching, and full film options really helps to give the couple final say on the overall mood and feel of their special day. Feeling like her craft is to “tell the story of weddings through photographs”, Monique Simone photography is truly able to provide photos that are made to measure, as opposed to the traditional cookie cutter shots.
Natalie Lyle Photography Natalie Lyle focuses on capturing of a story with a photojournalistic focus and expressive, natural, cinematic style. As a small photography business Natalie Lyle Photography can provide accessible and flexible packages to suit every couple and bring out the essence of their special day. Clients can rest assured that each image will be retouched with custom processes in order to suit the couple and their individual story. As she sees it, Natalie is sincerely honored to get to be invited into the preservation and commemoration of such a personal day.
Vanessa Dewson Photography + Design Need a break from all the hoopla that is planning a wedding? Why not turn to a vendor that can tackle more than one aspect of your special day? The answer is Vanessa Dewson Photography + Design. Working with Vanessa gives you access to a photographer with an eye for photos as well as printed materials. Vanessa also works while keeping the environment close to heart by utilizing digital photography, natural lighting as much as possible, rechargeable batteries, eco-friendly suppliers, materials and packaging from 100% recycled materials. Not only are the soft proofs of images and design concepts shown through in-person viewings, on-line galleries and email (good for the environment), but add that familiarity and personal connection that gets you through the stress of dealing with a million different people leading up to your special day.
Voulez-Vous Boudoir PhotographyMany people hear wedding photography and think of engagement shoots, groomsmen peeking out from behind trees or bridesmaids doing synchronized jumps in a field. Voulez-Vous Boudoir Photography offers something a little different: owner photographer Bri specializes in ladies boudoir photography. Each session is tailored to the client in order to bring out her vision, highlighting her sexy, naughty, or sassy side. Keeping in mind that the company’s motto is “Boudoir for real women by real women”, inhibitions and insecurities should be left at the door. Being one of the few Ottawa photographers who specializes specifically in boudoir, Bri and her team really go the extra mile – with outfit, jewelry and shoe consulting and shopping if necessary, with the goal of making her clients feel comfortable and at ease. Far from the traditional wedding photos, Voulez-Vous Boudoir Photography aims to leave each client with a heightened sense of confidence and a resonating beauty while embracing the sexy from within.
