Testimonials
Our wedding photos turned out exactly how we hoped! They are absolutely perfect! Cindy brought such great energy to our special day. She truly has a talent for capturing those intimate moments. She captured all the moments we knew we wanted and the moments we didn’t know we wanted. We received our photos a few weeks ago, and I’m still finding details she included that I didn’t notice before. Having a photographer you can trust to bring out the best in everyon is such a relief on your wedding day, I would recommend Cindy in a heartbeat.
“Cindy and her husband Matt were fantastic! They captured every moment of our wedding perfectly. They were patient, kind, and made sure to get all the photos we wanted, even with a big crowd. We love every single picture they took, and they delivered them to us really quickly. I highly recommend Cindy Lottes Photography – they’re amazing! Thank you.
Better than we could’ve ever imagined! Cindy and Matt (second photographer) were so kind and easy going they made us feel extremely comfortable and were so easy to work with. We were able to enjoy every moment of our wedding day with our friends and family while still receiving a huge selection of stunning photos that we both love. Highly recommend!
Cannot recommend Cindy enough. She captured our wedding day beautifully. She was such a joy to work with through the planning process and on our wedding day. She went above and beyond to make sure that we had all aspects of the wedding photographed. Wehn we received our weddin photos we were blown away to find hundreds of amazing photos. Seriously 10/10!
Cindy was such an amazing photographer during our wedding. The event ended up staying later than expected and she stayed with us until the end regardless. She was able to work with out awkwardness and deliver beautiful photos.
I have worked with Cindy on many occasions: Weddings, Band photos, modelling photos etc, and her work is amazing. She captures the perfect moments and makes you feel comfortable and natural while doing it. She is fun and super creative. Take a minute to go check out her work, you will not be disappointed.
Cindy exceeded my already high expectations. First, I was impressed by her calm and confident personality, while also being exceptionally professional.
When we met in person on my wedding day, I was instantly at ease with her and Matt. Not only are they great photographers but they are all class while being so fun at the same time. If Cindy wasn’t taking photos, I would have still wanted her to be a guest at the wedding because she’s awesome (and so is Matt).
Next came the photos. Holy smokes. We were blown away. I couldn’t love them more. They are perfect. The pictures are how I get to remember this perfect wedding day and they will do that for the rest of my days.
A million stars for Cindy!
It’s really quite difficult to highlight all the things that Cindy and Matt were able to do for us because it’s alot! There weren’t there just as photographers, but also as friends, as their charisma and spirited personalities allowed us to feel relaxed and comfortable, when picture taking can usually be an awkward and slightly confusing affair. They somehow were able to capture all the perfect moments both up close and from afar and they did so without being noticed at all! As for the quality of the photos and the turn around time, well we were beyond amazed. She provided us with hundreds of beautiful pictures within a relatively quick turnaround time. We would highly recommend her, not just because she’s a photographer, but because she’s a storyteller – when you get your pictures back, you’ll see what I mean.
Cindy was an absolute pleasure to work with. She was very communicative throughout the planning process and shared ideas and suggestions for making sure we captured our day perfectly. Cindy and Matt were wonderful on the day itself and made us feel supported, encouraged and calm. I would not hesitate to recommend Cindy to anyone. You will not be disappointed.
5 stars does not adequately capture how amazing it was to have Cindy document our wedding day! From initial meeting to engagement shoot through to our big day she was beyond awesome. The moments captured by Cindy and second photographer Matt were reflected so beautifully in the images and we are so grateful and beyond stoked with how they turned out! A major plus was her level of professionalism and openness to ideas like including shots with our dog and getting into the lake to take photos of us in a canoe. Professional, timely in communication and open to ideas; on top of the skill, talent and artistic style, Cindy was genuinely invested in how we felt on our wedding day and shared in our joy and excitement. In the days following, even our family and friends were speaking about how lovely she was to have there. 10/10 would recommend!!!
Cindy is such a talented photographer and we highly recommend working with her on your big day! Cindy was there to help us through every step leading up to the big day, including helping us create a day of schedule as we did not have a day of wedding coordinator. Kyle and I are at a loss of words how to express in writing how much we are in love with our wedding pictures. Cindy and Casey made us feel so comfortable during a very overwhelming day. They did not rush us through the pictures, we took breaks so we could mingle with the guests. It was such an easy process and the pictures are just breath-taking. The pictures truly capture who we are as a couple, and I am in love with how Cindy and Casey captured family and friends reactions through out the day. We cannot thank you enough!

Why I Became A Photographer in Ottawa
I grew up in Metcalfe, Ontario, a camera slung around my neck before I was even tall enough to ride most rides at the fair. I was the kid chasing light through fields, catching moments before anyone else noticed they were happening — a laugh, a glance, a split-second that said everything.
That same instinct followed me into adulthood. In my twenties, I was photographing weddings across Ottawa, drawn to the real stuff — the unfiltered joy, the unexpected tears, the wild dance moves. My camera’s taken me to Thailand, Korea, Nunavut, and back again, but no matter where I go, I always come home to the Pontiac and the Ottawa Valley. That’s where my roots are — and where my heart does its best work.
Now the camera fits my hands just right, and the stories I capture feel even more personal. So if you’re looking for wedding photos that reflect the real you — the quiet moments, the chaos, the in-between magic — I’d be honoured to tell your story.
