We met at Ottawa Valley Studios for her session. Her hair and makeup were done by Shannon of SD Beauty out of Ottawa, "She was friendly

Now, let's do this! 2017 is here and ready to go, and we are too. This year is looking to be a great year for Bold and Radiant and to st

Have you ever wanted to just step out of your comfort zone, you know, do something that you didn't think you could ever do or just haven't thought you could do? This past Saturday I did just that, along with some ladies I am sure felt the same way. I had thought about doing an Open House for the longest time, but it scared me a little ... Would people like it? What if they didn't? Was my work good enough? All of these thoughts had been drumming up for a good year. It was when

Oh the fall, one of my favorite times of the year. When else do you get to wake up and need to put a sweater on, then to only have to take it off half way through the day. You start to get that nice crisp air, and those fall smell's. Now I bet for most of you, it's that "pumpkin spice" smell, right? Well for me, the one I like most, it has to be that wood burning smell, be it from the camp fire in the bush, or that nice toasty warm wood stove. Nothing can beat that scent, if

It is hot out there ... And we have the perfect excuse for you to cool down. Click here to book now! These past few weeks have been an absolute pleasure for us here at Bold and Radiant, as we have had many women come by and take part in our #waterbeauty sessions. They have been especially exciting, as we have had women who would never had thought of having a professional photo shoot done of them selves ( do to self esteem issues, body issues etc.) and have walked away feeling

This is a session I couldn't wait to share. This amazing women was a referral from a past client whom we had also done some fine art work for, and when she saw the images from said client, she said to us "i want that". When we get to shoot Fine Art, the experience from every shoot is completely new and exciting, we really get to let loose with our creativity and it's always a blast. But today you get to hear about it from her, so please welcome "Mrs. N" to the blog, as she ta

Last year we thought we would do something different, what came out of this thought was themed sessions, the first one that came to mind was water and what can we do with water, and from there the Wet Sessions were born! We had a blast photographing our wet sessions, held at Bold and Radiant. It was a small event with roughly 13 participants. Everyone had such a great time and showed up with lots of energy and enthusiasm. Most couldn't believe that they were actually going to

One of the great things about this time of year / season is all the weddings! Brides take all this time to find a dress, find the flowers, book the hall...it just goes on and on... doesn't it! I remember all the time and effort my wife put into our wedding and the hardest part for me, was not getting involved (in the way more like it) :) I think the only choice I helped make was the cake... that was a big deal to me. So all these lovely Bride to be's get all of this together

Over the past few days we've been "knee deep" (pun intended :-) with our newest project. Over the next month we will be working on our WET project and are super excited about it. Sure the studio will need to have a mop and bucket on standby 24/7, but I think it is going to be worth it. This all came to play with the warm weather we have been having and watching the snow and ice melt away! Light Bulb!!! We started to plan what type of shoot we were going to provide and bingo e

Store front Studio vs At Home Studio. You know it’s a funny thing, as a photographer you are always looking at what’s best for your business, what are the trends and what are the benefits. One of those trends / benefits that a lot of people focus on is having a Store front Studio, you know the ones that are in a downtown area or a bustling suburb. Now I would love to have a studio that is in such a spot, but you know what, I absolutely enjoying having our studio right here
