Our Ottawa Photo Studio Blog

It has always been my life's dream to write a blog so I could share my inner most thoughts... Ya OK not really. It's just random stuff that I find interesting or amusing, well hopefully amusing. The day to day goings on in one of the oldest photo studios in the Ottawa area, well maybe the planet. They tell me photographers are in business on average about eighteen months before they pack it in and get a real job. Well this one is run by a cynical dyslexic that has somehow made a go of it for over forty years. Yes that surprises me too.

Cree Kokum Inspired Graduation Cap.

She told me that she was inspired by her kokum Clara (kokum is grandmother in Cree). Mayhève got hold of a graduation cap and beaded the edges. She was inspired by her kokum's traditional beadwork of floral prints unique to Moose Factory Islan

A fun pose... ALWAYS!
