Melissa + Alex Wedding - Spirit Garden

Patrick Chondon October 2, 2024

As much as I love photographing full wedding days, every once in a while it’s nice to do a small and short wedding. Case in point, Melissa and Alex had their wedding last month at the Spirit Garden at the Marina here in Thunder Bay. They invited their closest friends and family, and it was a very sweet wedding.

Brittany + Patrick Wedding - Charkuu102

Patrick Chondon October 2, 2024

Earlier this summer I had the pleasure of capturing the wedding of Brittany and Patrick. They hired me for a full day, which meant I got to follow them to a few different locations, eventually ending at a local venue I have never photographed at before, Charkuu102.

Andrea + Brendan Wedding - Naturally Superior Adventures

Patrick Chondon October 2, 2024

Even though most of my weddings are around the Thunder Bay area, every once in a while I’m asked to travel out of town, which I always look forward to. This time around, Andrea and Brendan asked if I would be interested in shooting their wedding at Naturally Superior Adventures, and I of course, said yes!

The amazing Helen Pelletier was at it again with her beautiful birch bark hat. I can’t even imagine all the work that goes into this. I feel very honoured to be able to photograph such a wonderful piece of work.

Carly + Neil Portrait Session - Mission Marsh

Patrick Chondon September 22, 2024

I had the pleasure of photographing Carly and Neil’s wedding in Marathon, back in June. It was such a special day. It ended up being a bit rainy, so we decided to make a plan to extend the wedding for a bit, next time they were passing through Thunder Bay.

It has been over 4 years since my first session with Tara and her family. This time around we chose the Tree Farm, and she invited her extended family. We all had a great time!

Fawn Meshake - Tikinagon Inspired Backpacks

Patrick Chondon September 10, 2024

It’s always amazing meeting local artists and photographing their work. Case in point, Fawn Meshake asked me to photograph her Tikinagon inspired backpacks which should would be selling at an upcoming fashion show in the US. The skill and attention to details was simply superb.
