Few styles have captured the hearts of homeowners and designers alike in the last few years quite like modern minimalism. Its clean lines, open spaces, and emphasis on functionality have made it a timeless choice for those seeking both aesthetic beauty and practicality. And a reprieve from the maximalist houses we grew up in, if we’re honest.

This warm open-concept kitchen & bath with brass accents, designed by Renovottawa, blends style, function, and attention to detail. White oak flooring and custom cabinetry create seamless flow in the kitchen, while an expanded shower and refined finishes elevate the bathroom upstairs. Thoughtful textures, high-end materials, and a modern yet inviting aesthetic complete the space. We loved capturing these design choices to highlight the distinct style and vision behind this remodel.

I can’t say it enough—consistent photo quality matters. Your photos are a huge part of your online presence. Your website and social media are your portfolio and your work is judged by potential in seconds. If the lighting, angles, or editing style are inconsistent across your projects, it can distract from the design itself. Or worse, it may suggest that your actual work is inconsistent too.

In our opinion, your venue is one investment that shouldn’t be compromised. The venue sets the tone for your events, dictates the feel of the day, and makes a significant impact on your photos—images you’ll cherish for a lifetime and will likely be displayed in your home for many years. We’ve had the privilege of photographing at some truly stunning venues that we believe are well worth the investment.

For a long time, crisp and clean studio images were the go-to in branding photography—and they still have their place. Studio photos offer control, consistency, and polish, which can be perfect for certain brands. But over the last few years, there’s been a noticeable shift. More small businesses are leaning into authentic branding photos that feel more personal, relatable, and real.

After photographing weddings at Le Belvédère over the last few seasons, I can honestly say it’s one of my favourite venues in the Ottawa area. Yes, the view is absolutely stunning, there’s a reason it’s called “Le Belvédère” aka “the view”, but what truly sets it apart is how well they treat everyone — from the couple and their guests to us vendors.

A yellow & blue boys room design with lots of pattern? Yes, please. This is a great space for kids because it’s quite colourful and highly patterned, yet it isn’t overstimulating. It incorporates fun colours and bold patterns in a balanced way, and we love highlighting those thoughtful choices alongside the textures and design elements that bring it all together. No one does children’s spaces quite like Maison Ellie, who also wrote about the design and functionality choices for this project on her website and you can find all the details about this project here.
