Marjorie and Patrick decided to do their engagement portraits in the springtime. There’s nothing quite like the Dominium Arboretum in downtown Ottawa for photos in the spring! The light, the blossoms… I could walk around there for hours! If you’re an Ottawa local and have never been, I highly recommend it! You can also check out some other engagement portraits taken at that locations here and here.

It was my first time meeting this outgoing and bubbly couple, and I liked them immediately. Patrick and Marjorie met right before the pandemic, and it put their relationship on the fast track. Though based on how these two look at each other, I think things would have moved along quickly anyways. You can tell that they love spending time together, laughing together, and helping each other through life.

They’re getting married in October, and I’m looking forward to seeing their friends and family celebrate together!
