Ottawa Wedding Photography Blog and Interior Design Inspiration

Your source for wedding inspiration, real Ottawa weddings, the best wedding vendors in the city, and gorgeous interior design inspiration.

From the soft, creamy kitchen to the ensuite with the exact same feel, both spaces in this Lev Design project have that relaxed but still elevated feeling that makes you feel calm and want to take your time in them. I have to say the use of Taj Mahal quartzite in the natural stone kitchen design is always a favourite. It has such great texture and the designer Rebecca included just the right amount of styling. Upstairs, the ensuite carries that same calm feeling through with warm neutrals, natural light, and plenty of natural stone. It’s the kind of project where all the little details come together seemingly effortlessly, but of course, we know plenty of hard work went into making it feel that way. Keep scrolling for great inspo from these stunning rooms.

Your project might be ready and you’ve narrowed down how you’d like to style it, but choosing the right photographer to capture your vision matters. You may be thinking, how does an interior photography shoot work? Here’s what it actually looks like to work with me, from start to finish. I want you to feel confident in the timing, the shots we’re capturing, and how everything comes together in your final gallery.

I’ve always dreamed of owning a waterfront home, and this new build design by Daphne feels like perfect inspiration with every detail suiting this modern lakehouse in Ontario. The dark brown exteriors wood and the warm neutrals and reeded millwork in the kitchen, paired with a cozy fireplace (it just wouldn’t be complete without one). The mudroom is a dark, moody green and the bedroom and ensuite are layered with soft neutrals.

From father-daughter moments that had me tearing up, to the spontaneous dance parties with the bride’s niece between speeches, to both sets of parents laughing together all night—this winter wedding at the Ivy Lea Club in Kingston was a great reminder of so many things I love about wedding photography. As much as I adored the disco balls, the dark and moody palette, and the fruit-and-silverware tables capes, it’s always the people that make it a special day.

There’s a reason JM Design won two awards for this moody olive kitchen and marble ensuite at Project Dufferin. The earthy tones, olive cabinetry, warm gold accents, and soft marble surfaces all come together to create a really refined warmth across both spaces. No surprise this one was awarded Best Kitchen and Best Bathroom in Traditional and Transitional Design by UnCommon Ottawa. Great work, Jessica! We can’t get enough of your designs.

Feeling a bit camera shy, not into posting your face all the time, or just want something different from the usual headshot? I pulled together a few face free posing ideas that still show your brand, your style, and a bit of your personality without putting your whole face front and center. Think over-the-shoulder shots, using props, or simply capturing your hands while you’re working. It’s also an easy way to break up your feed so it doesn’t feel like the same “smiling at the camera” photo on repeat. And honestly, creating content doesn’t have to feel like a whole thing every time. Even if you love being on camera, these kinds of shots are nice to mix in and keep things feeling a bit more natural.

Part of photographing interiors is really about understanding the designer’s style and what matters most to them in the spaces they create. In this playroom designed by Rebecca of Maison Ellie, the colour-driven design takes the lead. The soft palette of blues, pinks, and purples shows off Rebecca’s signature touch: fun, functional, and full of personality.

When you think about your wedding photos, your mind probably goes to the bigger moments—your first look, the walk down the aisle, or sunset portraits. Flat lays might not be the first thing that come to mind, but I think they deserve thought and care. These quiet, beautiful images tell a more subtle part of your wedding story. They often reflect your personality as a couple and the intentional choices you made to shape such a special day. If you’ve ever wondered what to include in your wedding flat lay, this is where those thoughtful details really shine.
