I'm a photographer, and this blog is all about sharing my work. Through the images presented here I hope you'll experience the fun, energy, honesty and emotion I have been entrusted to document.

I specialize in the photography of family history because I love to create memorable images of real life, both for you and for your entire family. If that sounds interesting, drop me a line. I’d love to talk with you.

Until then, welcome.

 

Isabelle and Jérôme are Married

June 5th, 2010  
 

I had the pleasure of meeting Isabelle and Jérôme are Married two years ago at the wedding of Isabelle’s Sister Nathalie. At their wedding I took a great photo of Isabelle and Jérôme, and it’s still one of my favourites (can you tell why I nick­named her “Demi”? :)

Fast forward to this weekend, and I had the great pleasure of photographing them as they cele­brate their marriage in old Quebec City. Their reception was held at the Auberge St-Antoine, an elegant hotel over­looking the St Lawrence river.







Their ceremony was held at the Notre-Dame-des-Victoires, a church whose construction began in 1687. As soon as I walked into the church and saw the model ship hanging from the ceiling (you can see it in the third image below), I was hit with a wave of nostalgia …way back in grade 7, I took a school trip to Quebec City, and part of that trip was a walking tour of Old Quebec. The ship hanging from the the ceiling made an impression I guess, since it brought the whole trip back.



Then we played around in Old Quebec, despite the rain and very strong winds (Isabelle, you are a trooper!)





Then it was back to the Auberge St-Antoine. This hotel is actually made up of a series of historic buildings linked together, yet main­taining their inde­pendent person­al­ities. You’ll see the variety of rooms below.








A fabulous wedding for a fabulous couple!
