This is a project I recently completed for a condominium development company in Ottawa. They are building two new towers near Dow's Lake and wanted to be able to show prospective clients the view towards the Gatineau hills. I will be installing an 8-foot display at their sales office next week, when it's complete I'll post the photos here.

If you have any need for commercial photography, whether it's architecture, products or food, please contact me for a custom quote.

Busniess Portraits

I recently completed some business portraits for a past client. This is a great marketing tool for anyone in business who needs to present themselves in a positive manner. Real estate agents, mortgage brokers, insurance agents and many other people use their image to promote their businesses, and their photograph should be current and up-to-date.

If you or anyone you know is in need of a high quality, fully retouched business portrait please have them call me. The sessions are fun and professional, and all work is 100% guaranteed.

Dragonfly

I saw this huge dragonfly on the side of my house last night around 10 and it was still there this morning. Hope you like it!

CHEO 100

I had the pleasure of working with Johnny Hunt of Com/Choice Realty in Ottawa. He and his good friend Mike Machargo put together another one of their great fundraisers for CHEO - The CHEO 100. The weather did not fully cooperate, but everyone who attended had a great time. If you were at the event and would like to order photographs, you can view them HERE. All proceeds will be dontated to CHEO.

Jonah Elliott

A big Congrats goes out to Stacey and Guillaume on the arrival of Jonah to their family on a very lucky 08-08-08. Jonah is a big boy, he weighed in at 9lbs, 3oz.

I've had the pleasure of working with Stacey and Guillaume over the last few years - I photographed Stacey's maternity sessions for both her kids; I've done the newborn photography for both Etienne and Jonah; and I did a family session for them for their Christmas cards a couple of years ago. They are a pleasure to work with and I look forward to seeing more of them over the coming years as their family grows.

Congratulations!

A big CONGRATULATIONS goes out to Lisa and Mike! Lisa gave birth to their first child, Adèle Rae Poirier, on July 27th. Adèle weighed in at 8lbs 2oz and she's doing great. I was lucky enough to visit them in the hospital this afternoon and Adèle is quite a little sweetie. I'm looking forward to doing some newborn photography for Lisa and Mike once Adèle is home and settled in.

If you've getting ready to have a baby, or if you've just given birth, I would be pleased to speak with you about newborn photography for your baby. I offer at-home portraiture of your child and will work with you to make the baby as comfortable as possible for the photography. I am located in Navan and am pleased to visit your home anywhere in Ottawa and the surrounding area. Of course, you are also able to stop by my studio for the photography if you wish. I can be reached by phone at 613-884-3355 or send me an email to info@blakephotography.ca.

William's cake

William will be turning 1 on August 5th, and I wanted to create a portrait to mark the occasion. He's having his first taste of cake in these photos (and so is KC!).

If you'd like to do something similar for your own baby please let me know, I would be happy to do a session like this for you. If you have a little girl I can photograph her on a pink background with a pink cake.

This was a lot of fun, if only to see his reaction to a very new experience.

Another K6 partnership

I teamed up with Tristan and Christian from K6 media to provide them with imagery for some vehicle wraps they're producing for the Ottawa Academy of Martial Arts. They'll be doing two more vehicles in addition to this one. Once everything is done, I'll try to post images of the real thing.

Stacey, Guillaume & Etienne

This is another recent maternity session with some past clients. Stacey & Guillaume are amazing parents and Etienne is going to be a fantastic big brother, he's already giving kisses to the baby. Here's what Stacey had to say after viewing the proofs:

"Oh my Gosh Pat, you've done it again. I have never seen so many gorgeous pictures. I'm really speachless and it makes me want to have another one just to have another photo shoot!"

Thanks for the positive feedback, Stacey. See you for the newborn session!

Lisa & Mike

I had the opportunity to photograph Lisa's maternity session before little Adele arrives. Adele is a couple of days behind schedule, so she should be here any day now. Can't wait to meet her!

Happy Easter

This is William's first Easter, so of course we need a photo!

He's now almost 8 months old and he's a big, strong boy. Will now weighs in at almost 24 pounds! We think he'll be crawling any day.

Hype

I was hired by Tristan at K6 Media to photograph this can for a new energy drink company called Hype. The image will be used as part of a vehicle wrap for the company. When it's all done I'll post more photos.

Happy Valentine's Day

Alexander

This is a recent newborn session, I hope you like it.
