May 17, 2012 by Juan Manuel Garcia | Leave a comment

The energy of these two is simply amazing and this is the kind of wedding day I love.
Pure love, laughter and trust.

This lighthearted and fun couple and their amazing friends and family were up for anything and gave me endless freedom to run with my ideas. ( Thank you guys!)
We  traveled around Ottawa and got some amazingly fun shots and we enjoyed belly laughs all day!
My feet still hurt from all the maneuvering I did (those who know me, know that I will do anything to get ‘the shot!’) and I loved every moment.

  I can’t wait to show them to you, so here we go!

Cracking Up The Capital

March 1, 2012 by Juan Manuel Garcia | Leave a comment

It was a great honor to be the official photographer for Cracking Up The Capital

This year Cracking Up The Capital took place February 18th 2012.
In support of The Royal Ottawa Mental Health Centre 2,100 people filled the National Arts Centre in Ottawa and enjoyed a night of comedy for a great cause.

With an amazing lineup of hilarious comedians including five-time Gemini nominee Derek Edwards, Debra DiGiovanni Canada’s 2011 female stand-up of the year, the always funny Joey Elias from Montreal and rising star Trent McClellan from St. John’s Newfoundland, it was an unforgettable night.

Engagement Shoot for Emalie and Pierce

February 21, 2012 by Juan Manuel Garcia | Leave a comment

 We had a blast shooting at Nepean Point in Ottawa last weekend.
It’s a great sightseeing point near the ByWard Market that they visit often on their bikes.

These two super sweet love birds have been together since high school and look great together.
They were a lot of fun and I can’t wait until their wedding!

Enjoy.
