Union Eleven

2011-07-20T13:45:00.001-04:00

Big news today! You may have noticed that updates and posts have been few and far between these last few months. There's a good reason for that - I've been busy working on something rather exciting:

I'm happy to officially announce Union Eleven, a new photography venture. Union Eleven is the partnership between myself and Derrick Rice - Wedding Photographer Extraordinaire. Over the past year, Derrick and I have been laying the foundation for our business, with the goal of bringing a whole new experience and level of service to our clients. The awesome Union Eleven studio space is now open to the public and everyone is encouraged to stop in and say hello! We're located at 619 Bank St. in the historic Glebe neighbourhood.

So with that, I'm happy (and a little sad) to say that this will be my final post. From now on highlights from my work, and other Union Eleven projects and news, will be posted to the Union Eleven Blog.

I want to say a big thank you to everyone who helped make Andrew Geddes Photography a success, and the transition to Union Eleven possible. Derrick and I are really excited for what comes next! I believe that the future holds great things for us, and our clients!

Thank you!

Andrew

Where have I been!?

2011-05-03T21:32:00.000-04:00

Well.... admittedly being a little lazy and not blogging. However, I've also been shooting interesting things, and working hard on a mighty exciting project that shall be revealed soon enough!

In the mean time, please enjoy some wedding photos from this past winter. I'll post a recap of some commercial work shortly.

Janice and Matt on the Marry Me Productions Blog

2011-02-23T15:24:00.000-05:00

If you want to check out some more photos, and read about the details of Janice and Matt's wedding, it was just featured on the Marry Me Productions Blog.

Shannon and Drew - Toronto Wedding

2011-01-30T15:19:00.000-05:00

Just before Christmas I went down to Toronto to shoot Shannon and Drew's intimate wedding at Hotel Le Germain. I believe there was a grand total of ten guests!

The hotel is super fancy, with plenty of interesting spots to shoot. Also, every hotel room has a massive floor to ceiling window that looks directly into the shower... go figure.

Featured in Weddingbells Magazine

2011-01-05T11:13:00.001-05:00

I was lucky enough to be chosen for a feature in the Ottawa section of the Spring / Summer issue of Weddingbells magazine. Check it out on news stands now :)

Janice and Matthew - Ottawa Wedding

2010-12-28T20:03:00.000-05:00

Janice and Matthew's wedding was a pleasure to photograph. It was a chilly day, but the weather didn't slow them down one bit (notice Janice s awesome coat). We spent a couple hours travelling around Ottawa and hitting up a number of great locations. We even shot around their old highschool, where they first met.

A special thanks goes out to Stacey and the team at Marry Me Productions for putting on another fantastic event, and to Briget of First Kiss Films for being a pleasure to work with!

Commercial Shoot - CHEO Dream House

2010-12-15T11:08:00.000-05:00

I did an interesting shoot the other day for Benjamin Moore. They provided all of the paint for the CHEO Dream of a lifetime dream home, and wanted some images to showcase the house. If you haven't heard about the CHEO dream of a lifetime lottery, you can learn about it here.

Emily and Curtis - Engaged

2010-11-28T23:40:00.000-05:00

It's been quite awhile since I've posted an engagement session. Here are a few highlights from Curtis and Emily's shoot from last week.

Michelle and Donald - Ottawa Wedding

2010-11-09T09:19:00.000-05:00

I had a blast working with Michelle and Donald. They placed a lot of importance on photography, and budgeted a big chunk of time towards it. It's a rare luxury to be able explore a number of different locations with a couple and not have to worry about running out of time!

Here's a little peek at their images:

Adrienne and Phil - Ottawa Wedding

2010-11-01T12:39:00.000-04:00

Here are a few highlights from Adrienne and Phil's super-fun wedding on a perfect autumn day:

The Portuguese Coast

2010-10-19T10:21:00.001-04:00

I recently returned from a little trip to Portugal, and thought I'd share a few of my favourite landscape images with you all.

It'll be back to wedding posts shortly!

Ashley and Russell - Ottawa Wedding

2010-10-11T15:42:00.001-04:00

Back from Portugal and ready to get to work! Before I left I had the pleasure of shooting Ashley and Russell's wedding. They managed to sweet-talk us into the parliament buildings, resulting in some really neat photos (if i do say so myself).

Jennifer and Eric - Wedding

2010-09-25T12:17:00.000-04:00

Here are a few of my favourite images from Jennifer and Eric's beautiful wedding at the National Gallery of Canada.

I'm heading off to Portugal tomorrow, and I doubt I'll be blogging while I'm away. I hope everyone has a great two weeks!

Commercial Portraits in the Wilderness

2010-09-20T11:36:00.000-04:00

I just got back from a week-long commercial shoot at Rabaska lodge near Mont-Laurier, Quebec. Despite the most random weather ever, we came away with some cool portraits in some very beautiful locations. Here's a taste:

Kristin and Josh - Wedding

2010-08-27T12:31:00.003-04:00

Too many weddings! I'm starting to fall behind on my blogging. I'm going to try to make a few smaller posts to catch up over the next couple weeks.

Here are three shots from Kristin and Josh's amazing wedding at the National Art Gallery!

Aysha and Mark on the Marry Me Productions Blog

2010-08-25T11:33:00.000-04:00

2010-08-13T11:33:00.002-04:00

Here a few photos that I really liked from Lisa and Heather's wedding in Kingston:

It's apple juice...

Elizabeth and Ben - Wedding

2010-08-03T15:48:00.002-04:00

The other weekend I headed down to Toronto for Lizzie and Ben's wedding in the Distillery district. What a great spot to photograph in! Both their church, and reception venue were amazing!

Chantal and Mike

2010-07-28T14:08:00.000-04:00

You can check out a few more photos of the decor and details from Chantal and Mike's wedding over at the Marry Me Productions blog.

Chantal and Mike - Wedding

2010-07-22T11:36:00.003-04:00

Chantal and Mike had an awesome wedding at Saint Luke's, and the National Gallery. They budgeted a ton of time for photos, and we made full use of it! I've posted a few of my favourites below. Check out the decor from the team at Marry Me Productions.

Robin and Nicolas - Wedding

2010-07-12T15:57:00.002-04:00

Here are a few highlights from Robin and Nick's wedding at the Britannia Yacht Club. As is typical this year, it was supposed to rain, but we ended up with a beautiful sunny day.

Christina and Matthew

2010-07-04T12:18:00.003-04:00

Here are a few images that stood out for me from Christina and Matthew's beautiful wedding at the Chateau Laurier. As usual for Saturdays lately, there were ominous forecasts for rain, but I seem to be on a serious lucky streak with the weather clearing up right before I need to shoot outside (knock on wood).

Aysha and Mark - Engaged

2010-06-23T15:58:00.001-04:00

Aysha and Mark got me out of bed at the crack of dawn for their engagement shoot (7am feels like the crack of dawn to me). We had a great time strolling around downtown Ottawa and came away with some really neat photos:

Aysha has a fantastic smile. As far as I can tell it's permanent ;)

Lindsey and Dom

2010-06-16T13:25:00.002-04:00

A few weeks ago I posted some images from Lindsey and Dom's "engagement" shoot. Now it's time for a taste of the main event!

Lindsey was not exactly pleased with the weather:

Natalie and Marc

2010-05-26T14:00:00.004-04:00

The 2010 wedding season is officially in high gear now, so there should be a lot more action on this blog in the near future.

Here are a few photos that stood out for me, from Natalie and Marc's wedding last weekend.

Lindsey and Dominic's E-Shoot

2010-05-21T14:52:00.003-04:00

I took a stroll through the arboretum with Lindsey and Dominic the other day. Here are a few highlights from our shoot:

Alex and David's Family Shoot

2010-05-11T09:36:00.004-04:00

Alex and David, whose wedding I shot last June, booked me for a family / couples / pet shoot as a gift for Alex's mother. It's always great to visit with past wedding clients! We had a fun , albeit somewhat chilly, shoot early Sunday morning.

Sabila and Brian

2010-04-01T13:47:00.003-04:00

A little while back I posted Sabila and Brian's winter "engagement" shoot. Now it's time for the main event. The celebration was a multi-day affair, coordinated by the fantastic people at Marry Me Productions.

With an energetic, and colourful blend of Pakistani and Chinese traditions, this wedding was a privilege to shoot. Check it out:

Deanna and Matthew

2010-03-12T00:19:00.003-05:00

I think it's about time I posted another winter wedding on my blog. Without any further ado, I give you Deanna and Matthew:

and Matthew's big day.

New Website is Live

2010-03-01T12:49:00.005-05:00

My new website is up and running! This new design is really clean, and puts major emphasis on the images. I hope you like it:

Sabila and Brian - Engagement Shoot

2010-01-19T16:07:00.004-05:00

I think it's high time I posted another engagement shoot.

Sabila, Brian and I took a little tour around downtown Ottawa on a grey, but not too chilly day and came away with some really fun images. Here are a few highlights:

Published in Weddingbells Magazine

2009-12-14T10:45:00.002-05:00

Alexandra and David's wedding, which I shot earlier this year, was just featured in the Spring/Summer edition of Weddingbells magazine!

Meghan and Rob

2009-11-17T14:34:00.003-05:00

Here are a few highlights from a really fun day with Meghan and Rob:

This is not Rob's boat, but he'd like you to think that it is:

Prince Rupert, BC

2009-11-09T12:46:00.002-05:00

I Just got back from a shoot in Prince Rupert, BC. Both the scenery, and unfortunately, the amount of rainfall were stunning.

Al and Allison

2009-10-30T11:46:00.003-04:00

Here are a few highlights from Al and Allison's beautiful and intimate wedding. It was an honor to be part of this special day.

Brides take note - cage veils are awesome.

Chantal and Michael - An autumn engagement shoot

2009-10-21T16:21:00.003-04:00

This day was equal parts adventure and photo shoot. Chantal and Michael picked me, and we drove out to Chantal's parent's cottage. From there, we took two ATV's(!!) to an abandoned mine! As if things weren't good enough already, after a fantastic shoot, Chantal's parents fed us a tasty brunch before we headed back into the city. All in all, a pretty good day ;)

See that little white dot near the upper right corner of the image? That's them.... trust me.

St. John's, Newfoundland

2009-10-14T15:34:00.002-04:00

I'm in Newfoundland this week shoot for Transport Canada. Here's a a quick peak at some of the beautiful landscapes this province has to offer:

Elaine and Al's Wedding

2009-09-22T21:49:00.004-04:00

Here are a few images that stood out for me from Elaine and Al's stunning wedding at Notre Dame Cathedral, and the National Gallery. Enjoy!

Susie and Karim

2009-09-09T15:54:00.002-04:00

Here are a few images that stood out for me from Susie and Karim's amazing wedding at Notre Dame Cathedreal, and the Chateau Laurier:

Melanie and Kevin

2009-08-27T19:11:00.002-04:00

We got a little wet during Melanie and Kevin's shoot, but clouds made for great light and one heck of a dramatic sky:

Taking cover:

Those two little dudes in the background were in the wedding party:

Shannon and John's Engagement Shoot

2009-08-17T15:22:00.002-04:00

Shannon, John and I took a little stroll through the arboretum a little while back to take their engagement shots. I'm pretty sure I ended up with more images of their pooch than anything else!

Ashley and Steve

2009-08-11T08:43:00.002-04:00

Ashley and Steve had a lovely little wedding at the Terrance Robert Gallery, in the market. Here are a few images that stood out for me:

Sarah and Ross

2009-07-30T15:14:00.003-04:00

Here are a few favs from Ross and Sarah's wedding from a couple weeks ago. Sarah works in the parliament buildings and was able to get us access to the library!

celebratory fist-bump:

Kirstin and Jamie

2009-07-21T15:55:00.002-04:00

Here are a few of my favourite shots from Kirstin and Jamie's fantastic wedding at Stanley's Old Maple Lane Farm:

Cora and Michael

2009-07-13T17:30:00.003-04:00

Cora and Michael were married on a beautiful, sunny day on the terrace at the Chateau Laurier. Here are a few of my favourite images from their big day.

Big thanks to Stacey from Marry Me Productions for helping the day go off without a hitch!

Carmen and David

2009-07-06T14:17:00.002-04:00

Here's a few favourites from Carmen and David's wedding!

Katie and Allan's Wedding

2009-06-26T14:01:00.003-04:00

A couple weeks ago I posted some images from Katie and Allan's "engagement" shoot. Now we come to the main event! The ceremony was at Blessed Sacrament, in the Glebe, and the reception at Luxe Bistro, in the Market. The light was pretty much perfect all day, which made for one happy photographer.

Special thanks to Aaron and his team from Starfish, for handling all the details, and making the day go off perfectly.

Baby Shoot: Hazel

2009-06-22T16:39:00.002-04:00

Alexandra and David

2009-06-18T12:21:00.002-04:00

Here are a few favourites from Alex and David's wedding at Stanley's Old Maple Lane Farm:

Family Shoot

2009-06-15T17:45:00.002-04:00

I had a fun little family shoot last week and thought I would share a few favourites:

Katie and Alan - E-shoot

2009-06-11T12:30:00.003-04:00

Katie and Alan are getting married on Saturday, so it seems a little silly to call this an engagement shoot. I think "couples" shoot would be more appropriate. Either way, it was a great warm up for this weekend.

Emily and Abraham

2009-06-08T11:13:00.002-04:00

Here are a few of my favourite images from Emily and Abraham's wedding at St. Elias church, and Sala San Marco.

Mom sneaking a peak:

Katie and Kevin

2009-06-05T10:59:00.002-04:00

Here are a few shots from a great wedding with Katie and Kevin.

Katie is brave ;)

Chantal and Serge

2009-06-03T12:01:00.003-04:00

Here are a few images from Chantal and Serge's wedding at the Bean Town Ranch. Chantal was positively beaming the entire day!

Daniel Alfredsson Photoshoot

2009-06-01T15:13:00.003-04:00

A little while back I had shoot with Ottawa Senators captain, Daniel Alfredsson, for the soccer mag Kick About Ottawa. Apparently he was an exceptional soccer player before deciding to focus 100% on hockey. The photos go with a great interview about his past, and his take on sports culture here, and back in his home country of Sweden.

I have to say I was really impressed by how nice and down to earth he was. The shoot was a lot of fun... if a little nerve-wracking.

Kim and Dave

2009-05-26T14:43:00.003-04:00

Kim and Dave were married at Dominion Chalmers church, which has one of the nicest interiors in Ottawa. The weather was a tad uncooperative, but thanks to a bit of luck, and a brave bride, the day went off without a hitch, and we got got some great shots.

Special thanks to Liz and Vanessa from Bridal Solutions for keeping everything organized and on track!

A quick note about the next photo - this was Dave's reaction to Kim giving him a cheque for a new motorcycle.... he was pretty happy about it ;)

TC shoot in Halifax

2009-05-18T17:10:00.003-04:00

Last week my good friends at Transport Canada sent me out east to photograph the ports and infrastructure in and around Halifax. Three days and two helicopter trips later, I came away with some really neat shots.

The main purpose of the trip was to photograph Halifax's two major ports. We had access to a Coast Guard helicopter which not only flew us around the ports, and the city, but out to Peggy's Cove as well. The pilot's were great, and were all for pulling aggressive turns so I could shoot straight down. You would think it would be unnerving considering the chopper doors were pinned open, but we were turning so hard, the centripetal force had us pinned into our seats, making it strangely calm.

After the helicopter trips, it was off to shoot the ports from the ground. Here are a couple shots of the huge gantry cranes they use to load and unload the ships. We were allowed to take an elevator up to the top of the crane and walk around. You wouldn't think it, but those things shake and blow around like crazy. Being up on those steel walkways was far more unsettling than hanging out of a helicopter at 1000 ft.

Peggy's Cove:

Stay tuned for some epic wedding shots.

Stefany and Yves

2009-04-27T15:40:00.003-04:00

I took advantage of the beautiful weather to do a couples shoot with Stefany and Yves, around the Museum of Civilization. We found some amazing evening light. Here are some favourites:

Turkey! (finally)

2009-03-31T21:50:00.002-04:00

Last October Shauna and I spent 16 days in Turkey. I've been a tad slow in processing all of the images... Anyways, there are over 1500 that made the cut. I decided it's about time that I shared a few of my favourites.

Chantal and Serge - engagement shoot

2009-03-24T10:58:00.002-04:00

Chantal, Serge and myself took a walk through the Arboretum earlier this week for their engagement shoot. We got lucky with some beautiful light. Here are my favourites:

Sarah and Todd

2009-03-21T10:14:00.004-04:00

Here are a few pictures from Sarah and todd's lovely wedding at Strathmere, last weekend.

Lesley and Marshall

2009-03-02T16:28:00.002-05:00

It was right back to work after Vegas, shooting Lesley and Marshall's wedding in Pakenham. We had beautiful weather and light all day.

I hope this first shot was worth the "effort", Lesley ;)

Vegas

2009-02-20T12:10:00.004-05:00

Well, I've safely returned from Vegas, the land of big buildings, big budgets, and big boobs. The conference and trade show were fantastic. I feel refreshed, inspired, and ready for the 2009 wedding season. Derrick, Andrew and I had a hell of a time hanging out together, especially when we had a little free time to go shooting.

Here are a few of my favourite images from our little adventure:

New Years Wedding, and off to Vegas!

2009-02-13T08:45:00.005-05:00

Tomorrow morning (dark and early) I'm off to Las Vegas for a massive photography conference and trade show. This is pretty much the event of the year for wedding and portrait photographers, so I'm really excited. Plus I'm heading down with my good buddies Andrew Van Beek and Derrick Rice. Should be a hell of a time!

I've been neglecting this poor blog as of late, and am well overdue for an update. Here are some pics from Melanie and Justin's fantastic wedding on New Years Eve. The event took place in two of the most beautiful venues in Ottawa - Blessed Sacrament church, and the Museum of Civilization's great hall. The day went off without a hitch thanks to Liz and her team at Bridal Solutions.

Azadeh and Chris

2009-01-25T19:34:00.004-05:00

My favourite couple of 2008! (I'm allowed to say that because the lovely bride is my step sister)

Azadeh and Chris were married at the Reif Estate Winery in Niagara-on-the-Lake. It was a beautiful, intimate ceremony with only family and few close friends present.

Kirstin and Jamie - engaged

2009-01-18T20:32:00.002-05:00

Kirstin, Jamie, and I braved the elements over the holidays to get this great engagement shoot in. They live in Iqaluit, so this probably seemed like a nice spring day to them.

Back to Vancouver

2009-01-16T14:51:00.004-05:00

First post of 2009! Sorry for the long absence. I hope everyone had a wonderful holiday. It's been a tad hectic, as of late, and I'm way behind on my blogging.

Shortly before Christmas, Transport Canada sent me out to Vancouver to photograph some infrastructure, employees, and the new Canada Line railway. I've posted a few samples below. I love heading out to Vancouver, but this time the weather was... disappointing. There's nothing like shooting in teaming rain / snow with a garbage bag taped to your camera in a feeble (and unsuccessful) attempt to keep it dry. Nevertheless, the trip was a success and the images worked out quite well in the end.

Check back here soon! I have a lot of posts to catch up on!

Calgary Wedding - Jenny and Bobby

2008-12-17T17:35:00.003-05:00

About a month ago, I flew out to Calgary to shoot Jenny and Bobby's wedding... errr weddings. Bobby's family is Sikh, and Jenny's is Catholic, so they opted for a double-header; a Sikh ceremony on Friday, and a Catholic one on Saturday. both were excellent, and made for some beautiful pictures (in my humble opinion).

It's a real honor to have a couple fly you across a continent, to cover their wedding. Thank you both!

This will likely be my last post for a couple weeks. I hope you all have a safe and happy holiday!

Merry Christmas!

Engagement Mega-Post

2008-12-14T14:34:00.003-05:00

In an effort to get a caught up on my blogging, I'm combining three engagement shoots into one big post.

Lets start things off with Melanie and Kevin:

Next up we have Melanie and Justin, who are getting married in only a couple weeks on New Years Eve!

Last but not least, we have Karine and Pierre, who toughed out some seriously frigid conditions to get their pictures. Don't believe me? Check out Pierre's ear in the second photo! Yes, I know could have easily removed the red in photoshop.

Meredith and Patrick

2008-11-28T15:49:00.004-05:00

Here's a combo-post for both Meredith and Patrick's engagement shoot and wedding day. For the engagement shoot (which wasn't really and "engagement" shoot at all, seeing as it was a month before their wedding), we strolled around the Rockeries while the leaves were at their most beautiful.

Stacey, from Marry me Productions, organized a beautiful wedding at Blessed Sacrament church, and the Rideau Club. Here are a few favourites from both shoots:

This fateful attempt at a high-five resulted in a vicous eye-gouging on the part of Meredith:

Christelle and Kal

2008-11-24T10:36:00.002-05:00

Here are a selection of favourites from Christelle and Kal's Wedding:

Kick-About Ottawa

2008-11-18T09:40:00.002-05:00

I've done quite a bit of shooting for Kick-About Ottawa lately. It's a great magazine aimed at promoting soccer in our city. You've likely seen copies in local sporting goods stores, or gyms. Pick one up next time, they're free!

Back from Calgary

2008-11-13T15:32:00.003-05:00

I just got back from shooting Jennifer and Bobby's wedding in Calgary. I have one quick trip to Toronto this weekend, and then I can look forward to a long stretch of time at home.

While I was away, I took a quick trip to Lake Louise and made some nice images:

Posting from Calgary - Jimena and Jim

2008-11-06T16:47:00.004-05:00

As if traveling to Turkey, shooting a wedding, and moving to a new place wasn't enough in the past couple weeks, I'm now in Calgary to cover yet another wedding! It's a hell of a lot colder here than it is in Ottawa. I think the wedding is going to a blast though.

On to Jimena and Jim! What a fun couple to work with. They budgeted tons of time for photos, and were up for all sorts of crazy shots.... including a bride on bride battle royal.

Oh... and Jimena managed to successfully pull off having the largest bouquet that I've ever seen.

Here are a few favs:

What are bridesmaids for? This... apparently...

This was a first for me:

Check out the bouquet!

I had no part in setting up this photo:

or this one...

Christina and Ian

2008-11-01T08:20:00.002-04:00

Hello! I'm back from Turkey and have a great wedding to blog for you.

First off, sorry to those of you who tried to get in touch with me while I was away. I'll be getting back to you all very shortly, if I haven't already done so.

When couples ask me for suggestions for places to do their engagement sessions, I always ask if they have a spot in Ottawa that has some sentimental value to them. In Christina and Ian's case, it was the elementary school where they first met. I always use their shoot as an example. You can check out the photos here.

Onto their wedding, which took place at Blessed Sacrament for the ceremony, and the Chateau Laurier for the reception. We had a great time hunting around the chateau for cool little spots to shoot. Check out the results:

Last post before Turkey - Jacqueline and Mike!

Later today I leave for 18 days of adventure in Turkey! I wanted to squeeze in one more post before I left, so here are a few favourites from Jacqueline and Mike's wedding. We got some great images walking around Andrew Haydon Park, and managed to not get crapped on by any of the one million birds inhabiting the place.

See you all in a few weeks!

Victoria and Matthew

You may remember Victoria and Mathew form their engagement shoot, which I blogged awhile back. Well the big day recently arrived, and it was awesome! I had a really great time shooting this wedding. Victoria and Mathew are fun, and easy going. They have the perfect personalities for making great images:

Vicky and Bruce

2008-10-06T00:21:00.002-04:00

Here are a few of my favourite images from Vicky and Bruce's intimate wedding at the Bean Town Ranch. Vicky is a fellow photographer, which is always fun because I get to have nerdy camera conversations throughout the day ;)

I'm getting geared up for a month of traveling, so expect a flurry blogging this week as I get caught up on all my posts.

A heck of a spot for a first dance.... I got a good 10 mosquito bites taking this

One hell of a rock:

Despite an epic downpour (wherein I got completely soaked even though i was under a massive tree and had a massive umbrella), Luisa and Jon managed to pull off a fantastic wedding, with lots of great photos!

Special thanks to my lovely assistant, Shauna (who also got completely soaked in a desperate attempt to run to the car), for coming out and helping me document the day!

Any guesses where this is?

The museum is one hell of a venue:

Jenny and Blair

Jenny and Blair were married at a beautiful ceremony at their family cottage, near Chelsea. Friends and family came from as far away as New Zealand came to celebrate.

If I hadn't have woken up with water in my tent and slugs in my shoes, it would have been the perfect wedding ;)

Here is a small collection of their photos.
