Modifications & Retouching

This sample is a little extreme but it gives a pretty good indication of what can be achieved with modifications & retouching. The client always has the final say when it comes time for this service. Unlike many studios or photographers in Ottawa, we always include this service with any print purchase.

Notice how we added volume to her hair, added makeup around her eyes, brought her lower lip up, and softened her skin. All these extras are included with any print purchase! We’re in business of making people look beautiful.

Studio Family Portraits

Studio family portraits will always remain a popular classic for many people. We get to control lighting and we always include retouching with every print you purchase. You can have a formal theme or a more casual one for your family portrait. One thing we do recommend is that you try to avoid distracting patterns for your clothing. The attention of the viewer must first be drawn to the subject’s faces and not the garments they wear. For the ladies, an evening type makeup is recommended for studio portraits.

Commercial Photography



Sometimes it’s about being at the right place at the right time. Sometimes it’s about the size of your camera influencing a person. Last saturday evening I think it was a combination of both! Following our wedding shoot, Louise and I stopped at Bigg’s restaurant for a late dinner. I brought my camera bag along because I never leave my equipment in the vehicle; and I also like to look at my shots while I wait for dinner. The owner came to see me and asked if I did commercial photography. After dinner I waited a bit for the light to be right. This shot turned out pretty decent.
