Sara + Eric Wedding - Best Western Plus Nor'Wester Hotel

Patrick Chondon July 25, 2022

It was my second wedding of the summer at NorWester Hotel. Once again the weather held up, but it was definitely a hot day for a wedding. Sara and Eric actually got married in a small intimate ceremony the previous year, but they wanted to do it again, this time in front of family.

Vanessa + Nick Wedding - Best Western Plus Nor'Wester Hotel

Patrick Chondon June 6, 2022

I was so happy that the weather held up for Vanessa and Nick’s outdoor wedding at the Best Western Plus Nor’Wester Hotel last month. It was a bit windy, but everything went according to plan. Well, aside from the bride and her bridesmaids running a little late. I don’t know of any wedding that has gone exactly to plan though!

Julie + James Wedding - Best Western Plus Norwester Hotel

Patrick Chondon September 8, 2021

With only a few weddings left this year, I’m really trying to take it all in. Luckily Julie and James were an extremely fun couple, so it made getting candid and sincere photos, pretty darn easy. My day started with Julie and the girls getting ready. I spent good hour with them just hanging out, documenting the time leading up to the ceremony.

ONWA’s 48th Annual General Assembly & Leadership Conference

Patrick Chondon November 1, 2019

ONWA held their 48th Annual AGA Conference this past October and I was tasked to capture the entire event. It was a lot of work but I absolutely enjoyed the entire experience. The last one I photographed last year was actually in Toronto. So it was nice to be able to stay in town for this one. Although, I do enjoy going to Toronto any chance I can. Not only did I take photographs, but I also did a lot of video too.

Melissa + Brandon Wedding - Best Western Plus NorWester Hotel

Patrick Chondon October 25, 2019

Melissa and Brandon’s entire wedding day took place at the Best Western Hotel here in Thunder Bay. If I had to shoot at wedding at just one hotel, this one would definitely be at the top of my list. It did rain the whole day so it was completely indoors but that’s what often happens this time of year. Regardless, it was such an amazing day to be a part of.

Jenna + Jeff Wedding - Best Western Plus NorWester Hotel

Patrick Chondon August 27, 2019

The thing I like about weddings is that they are all different in some way. This past weekend I had a wedding where we went to 4 different locations. For Jenna and Jeff’s wedding which took place earlier this month, it was all at the Nor Wester. It was a nice change of pace because there was no travelling around, and it all happened at one beautiful location. With that being said, I love the variety of each and every wedding I do.

Courtney + Evan Wedding - Best Western Plus NorWester Hotel

Patrick Chondon June 11, 2018

My first wedding of the season took place a few weeks ago in May and I was so excited for it, if not a bit nervous. Within a few minutes of arriving and getting started, I was off to the races. Anyone who has seen my work before on this site, knows that I love candid photos. I would say 95 percent of every wedding I shoot is candid. I always challenge myself to find those special moments or expressions throughout the day. It's a hard challenge often times but a fun and rewarding one nonetheless.

Gaby + Michael Wedding

Patrick Chondon August 29, 2017

Gaby and Michael celebrated their wedding day this past July at the Best Western in Thunder Bay and they chose me to capture the entire day. My started in the afternoon photographing Michael and the rest of the boys getting ready. It was a very relaxed atmosphere, although you could just tell that Michael was anxious to get the wedding started. Luckily for him, it wasn't too far off. 

Before the ceremony started though, I made my way to Gaby's room to get some photos of her and the rest of the girls. Once I was with them I could really start to feel the excitement, especially when Gaby put on her dress. It goes without saying that she looked absolutely stunning which I know everyone else thought as well.
