Ottawa School of Art

Holiday Sale

We have both submitted works to the Ottawa School of Art holiday sale which opens on November 27th, 2008 in the school art gallery. Ramin submitted this wonderful image of Long Beach, B.C., titled "Pacific Lovers". Patricia has submitted a group of little works of collage. You can see their works from November 27th - December 20th, 2008.

Val & Chris

We had quite a fun portrait session with Val & Chris in the cold November weather. I was excited to still find some colour, even though all of the leaves had fallen.

It's been a very busy season!!!

It has been a couple of months since we've updated this blog. We've done a couple of weddings, a few engagements and busy taking photos of nature... Here are a few samples of what we've been up to. To see more wedding photos you can visit our other sight ...

Wow!!!
Regional Contact (CTV) is doing a show about us!!!

They filmed us all day Tuesday March 18th. We started at the Arboretum with snowshoeing and by noon they came to visit our gallery and studio at home. Both Joel (the host of Regional Contact) and Randy (the cameraman) were very delightful to work with. They made the day enjoyable and we can't wait to see the show, which will air on April 5th!

Patty-Lou will be teaching a course at the Ottawa School of Art, February - April

Tuesdays 5-Feb to 1-Apr
13:00 – 16:00

Learn the fundaments of drawing with a cozy cup of tea at your side. With winter approaching this class offers a warm atmosphere to learn basic techniques and perspectives of drawing. We will begin with basic shapes using pencil, working our way to drawing still-life with conte. For our final project we will create a wonderful still-life with pastels! Each week we will highlight a different tea during our break.

We saw this beautiful deer on one of our snowshoeing expeditions. He was so calm. It was nice to be able to get as close as we did to him. It was so lucky that Ramin had a 70-200 2.8 L IS canon lens with him. I think I might even do a big oil painting of this beauty (if Ramin doesn't mind me using this great image).

We've been keeping pretty busy with our new website. With winter here we both can take a breath and prepare for another busy wedding season! It's looking good this year with plenty of couples ready to tie the knot and we're pretty excited to be part of it all! Check out our wedding photography website! www.photographybyramin.com
