Josie + Dan Engagement - Tree Farm

Patrick Chondon July 24, 2018

Next month I have the pleasure of photographing Josie and Dan's Wedding but in the meantime, we got out and did their engagement session at the Tree Farm. I've said it many posts before this, but it is by far one of the prettiest locations in town. When you combine that with an amazing couple, you are pretty much guaranteed beautiful photos. That is exactly what we came away with. It also helped that they brought along their dog 'Buddy'. I just love photographing animals, especially dogs.

Katelyn + Family Portraits - Vickers Park

Patrick Chondon July 12, 2018

This was my second family portrait session with Katelyn and her amazing family. This time around Courtney Lynn and Jake joined us as well. I hadn't seen them since I shot their wedding a couple years ago. We decided on Vickers Park this time around and it ended up being the perfect location. It had a nice mix of trees and shade and of course the park for the kids.

ONWA Family Portraits

Patrick Chondon July 3, 2018

It was that time of year again to capture some family portraits at ONWA. I've lost count how many years it has been now that I have been doing this but I get super excited each and every time. Usually there are about 5-8 families that show up which is actually pretty good, but, this time around there were over 10 families and some of them were pretty big too. Suffice it to say, I had my work cut out for me but it just mean I was able to capture even more photos then usual.

Eden + Chris Portraits - Current River Park

Patrick Chondon July 2, 2018

Back in 2015 I photographed Eden and Chris's wedding at Current River Park so it was only fitting that Eden suggested we do the portrait session there. This time around they had a new addition to the family and they also brought their dog as well. I had my hands full for sure but it ended up being such a fun and spontaneous session. The weather couldn't have been better and Eden and Chris where completely natural in front of the camera. I'm very much looking forward to a future session in the near future!

Jessica + Liam Engagement - Mission Marsh

Patrick Chondon June 6, 2018

Jessica and Liam's wedding isn't until next year but that doesn't mean we couldn't do an engagement session this summer, which is exactly what we did! The day before our shoot, Jessica decided they wanted to use Mission Marsh as the location instead of Centennial Park, and I couldn't have been happier. There is nothing wrong with Centennial Park but I have already had a few sessions this year over the past few weeks, so a new location was more then welcome.

Dany + Family Portraits - Centennial Park

Patrick Chondon June 3, 2018

I had an amazing 30 minute session with Dany and her family this past weekend at Centennial Park. Even though it was a short session I laughed so much during the entirety of it. Everyone had such a good time and I think that came through in the photos.

Amy + David + Jace at Centennial Park

Patrick Chondon May 13, 2018

Amy and David decided to do a spring portrait session this past weekend at Centennial Park and I really couldn't wait, for a couple reasons. The first one being Amy is pregnant expecting her second child, and the second one being I got to see how much more Jace had grown up.

Lauren + Kyle Family Portraits

Patrick Chondon February 27, 2018

My mini sessions always go by so fast, but they are always packed with so much fun. Such was the case with Lauren and Kyle and their family. Not only did they bring their new baby but they also brought their dog as well. It was the first time photographing a dog in the studio so that was great to do as well.

Julia Alton - Be Rare. Be You.

Patrick Chondon February 15, 2018

Last month, I had the pleasure of photographing Julia Alton, who is the Executive Director of the Canadian Fabry Association and a Fabry patient herself. Prior to the session, I had never even heard of Fabry disease, but that soon changed once I had the chance to talk with Julia.

Kim + Family Portrait Session

Patrick Chondon February 6, 2018

My recent session with Kim and her family got postponed a couple time due to this extreme weather. We really want to do some outdoor photos so each time we booked it, the weather just wasn't cooperating. Well, we finally decided to just do it and have fun in the process, otherwise we would be waiting until spring! Who knows how far away spring is too.

Darla + Family Portraits

Patrick Chondon January 2, 2018

This was my second session with Darla and her amazing family. It's always nice going into a family's home during the holidays and capturing some genuine moment. Especially when kids are involved, you never quite know what to expect. There was also a new addition to the family this year as you can see from the photos below.

Leah + Family Studio Portraits

Patrick Chondon December 31, 2017

It has been an extremely cold couple weeks here in Thunder Bay, and it doesn't look to be getting any warmer soon. That means outdoor portrait session are not really possible. Luckily, I now have an indoor photo studio so I don't have to rely solely on outdoor portraits. Leah and her family decided to have a mini-session with me a few days ago and it turned out to be very fun.
