When my eldest daughter Laura and her friend Emelie asked for some new photos, I thought we could maybe shoot a location outdoors. Well that was my idea for the afternoon but Laura and her friend wanted something “more interesting” in down-town Ottawa. City parking options at this time of year were deplorable so we made our way to the National Gallery of Canada and thankfully found easy parking.  A good choice it turned out to be with lots of options for portraits with interesting backgrounds and lighting.

I always enjoy my local art gallery visits. Finding creative options for photography at the gallery is never a challenge, either with portrait or casual candid shooting. And it’s even better now they allow photography in the actual gallery sections. See my Gallery page here…

Here’s some images from our session:
