There are so many gorgeous venues in Ottawa and the surrounding area and we have been fortunate to work at a ton of them. But if you don't see your venue listed here, don't worry, we can get you gorgeous, natural looking images you'll absolutely love anywhere you choose to have your wedding!
(And we'll have a super fun time throughout the whole day too!)
Temple's Sugar Bush
Temple's Country Weddings
Temple's Sugar Bush (known as Temple's Country Weddings now) is like a second home for us during the wedding season. We capture about a third of our weddings each year at Temple's, and even though we are there so often, we never grow tired of it (or of their scrumptious food!!). Moira and her amazing team will not only take care of yo, but they truly make you feel like family! From the newly upgraded Bridal Loft and Groom's Cabin, to that cozy fireplace, the interiors are a great option for all of your wedding day events. But of course, it is those beautiful grounds that really draw people to this wonderful venue! And whether your wedding is accompanied by a lush green forest, or one covered in crisp, Fall leaves, it is the perfect background for some gorgeous portraits!!
"Amazing, fantastic, helpful, thoughtful, relaxing, funny, easy to get along with, etc.
All words we would use to describe Stephanie Beach Photography! Stephanie and Dave were so amazing to be around and have capture our wedding day. They were easy going and made our day even better. We are blown away with the amazing pictures that they took of our wedding. We could not be happier. They are an amazing couple and we are so very lucky to have had them capture our special day. We will for sure be using Stephanie Beach Photography in the future." ~ Alexis + Peter

Le Belvedere
The view looking out from Ottawa's only cliffside wedding venue really is breathtaking! So much so, that it is no wonder Le Belvedere has been voted one of Canada's Loveliest wedding venues by Wedding Bells Magazine. But more important than any accolades, or pretty views, are the people. Jessica + her team work so hard for each and every one of their couples and it is such a joy to work alongside them. Every time we get to spend a wedding day at Le Belvedere we are overjoyed because we know it is going to be seamlessly wonderful! From a choice of prep areas both on site at the Guest house, and at the Wakefield Grand just a short drive (or shuttle) from the venue, to the endless options for photos (including the Wakefield Bridge if you are up for a teensy drive into town), Le Belvedere offers you nothing but picture perfect settings for your wedding day.
"Stephanie, and her husband Dave, were PHENOMENAL to work with on our wedding day. They kept us, and our wedding party, laughing and made all the posing incredibly fun. They captured the warmth and love of our day and truly blended right into the background. The turnaround time for our 'sneak peak' and all of our finished photos was impressive! The value that you get with not one, but two outstanding artists, speaks in how early you have to book these two!" ~ Karen+ Jay

Stonefields
Stonefields was on my wish list from the moment we first laid eyes on it during a networking + open house evening they hosted. Stephanie + Steve have upgraded and enhanced the site immensely since they first opened the venue, and every single one of those changes has been done with such great care and attention to detail. From the picture perfect prep areas to get ready in, to choosing the perfect ceremony site for your nuptuals, to customizing the stunning loft, and of course taking advantage of those lush grounds for all your wedding day portraits, the options are seemingly endless and sure to result in your dream wedding day!
"Stephanie + Dave are awesome people. They are so easy to get along with, it was like having two more friends at our wedding. Our entire bridal party were blown away with how much they enjoyed the experience. We loved having them work as a team, with two photographers we didn't miss out on any pictures. They made the entire experience of being in front of the camera so comfortable. The pictures turned out exactly like we had dreamt. We can't say enough good things about them, and can't wait to share more experiences with them!" ~ Kirsten + Kyle

Jabulani Vineyard
Who doesn't want to get married in a vineyard?! Jabulani sometimes seems like a hidden gem of a wedding venue in the area. It has just the right about of rustic charm and country atmosphere just a tiny drive out of the city. And to make your wedding day truly your own, there are so many ways to celebrate your day at Jabulani including at least 3 different ceremony locations (I am personally drawn to the orchard area myself). Tom + Janet are so sweet and take such great care of each and every one of their couples, so you will definitely feel at home here!
"Stephanie and Dave are a wonderful team, both great to work with, they asked us what we wanted for our wedding pictures and they delivered, the pictures turned out gorgeous. They made us feel at ease thus they were able to capture some beautiful natural photos." ~ Teresa + Stephane

Strathmere
You really can't go wrong at Strathmere! Whether you are celebrating your day at the Farmhouse (previously called the Inn), Lodge, or Garden House you are in for a beautiful day from start to finish! I personally love venues where you can do everything from start to finish. Doing your prep, ceremony, portraits, and reception all on the same site really reduces stress levels during the day (it also means you get more time with us because there's no driving between locations!). We've work at Strathmere countless times now and we have loved every single one of those wedding days, not only because we have loved our couples, but also because we of the amazing teams here! Side note: if you have the option to get the carrot cake with cream cheese icing, you won't be disappointed!!
"Stephanie and Dave were great to work with and their photos were lovely! We really liked that all photos came in colour and black and white. We received our photos after the wedding in a very timely manner. We are so glad we chose Stephanie Beach Photography!" ~ Angela + Paul

Orchard View
Orchard View was relatively new to us until just a few years ago, but the second I toured the property in preparation for our first wedding there I was in love! The different ceremony sites really do cater to a variety of couples while still ensuring everyone can have that serene wedding day in a gorgeous natural setting. Of course the pond and grounds drew me in, but when I saw my first sunset there I was done. I mean, the glow, the reflection off the water, the perfectly placed little gazebo and bridge --- utter perfection! Add to that the fact that Orchard View has some of the nicest staff you will ever meet and you are definitely going to be well taken care of!
"Stephanie and Dave did an AMAZING job capturing our big day. They were professional but fun to hang out with. They captured every little detail of our special day, guided us through the process, listened to what we wanted and were just genuinely a pleasure to work with. My husband and I are by no means selfie king/queens but Stephanie & Dave did a great job capturing our personalities and our love for one another. Would definitely recommend them!!" ~ Miranda + Jason
