Colleen Anne Photography is an Ottawa wedding photographer led by Colleen Anne Johnson. The confirmed official site presents wedding coverage built around composed portraits, documentary storytelling and candid coverage of the day’s meaningful moments. It also identifies Colleen as an Ottawa-based wedding and event photographer who has photographed weddings since 2005.

For couples comparing photographers in Ottawa, the site provides useful practical detail: wedding coverage is customized by the hour, packages include edited high-resolution images and an online gallery, and engagement sessions, albums, print options, extra hours and a second photographer may be added. Current pricing is not explicitly published.

Profile review status

Last reviewed: August 10, 2026. The official identity is confirmed through colleenanne.com: its title and on-page business name match Colleen Anne Photography, while its wedding-photography content, Ottawa location, address, telephone number and contact details align with the existing company record.

This is an active profile based on direct first-party pages. The business names Colleen Anne Johnson as the photographer behind Colleen Anne Photography; “Colleen Anne Photography” remains the appropriate directory-facing business name because it is used throughout the confirmed site.

Services and specialization

The official site describes wedding photography across portraits, getting ready, ceremonies and receptions. Its stated approach combines a light, modern treatment of wedding portraits with documentary storytelling. For portraits, Colleen describes providing gentle guidance so couples can move naturally rather than creating artificial moments. Ceremony coverage is described as quiet and respectful, while reception coverage focuses on candid moments alongside ambient light and flash where needed.

Wedding packages are customizable by hourly coverage. The pricing page states that every wedding package includes one photographer, carefully edited high-resolution images, an online gallery for viewing, downloading and sharing, print-ready digital files with personal and printing rights, plus guidance and timeline support. Optional engagement sessions, additional hours, albums, print options and a second professional photographer are also documented. The FAQ additionally states that a hybrid digital-and-film package may be discussed on request; it does not indicate that film is a standard inclusion.

Service area and who it may suit

Colleen Anne Photography is based in Ottawa and states that it photographs weddings in the Ottawa and Gatineau region. The official site also says Colleen is available to travel to Montreal, Toronto, rural Eastern Ontario and Western Quebec. Its FAQ says travel outside a 50-kilometre radius from downtown Ottawa carries a fee, while Gatineau has no travel charge stated.

This may suit couples who want coverage centred on Ottawa or Gatineau and who prefer a photographer describing both guided portraits and documentary moments. The hourly structure may also be relevant for a shorter celebration, a small or non-traditional wedding, a multi-day event, or couples still deciding how many hours they need. The site has also published guidance specifically for Ottawa City Hall weddings, so City Hall and smaller-ceremony couples can ask about coverage that fits their schedule.

Confirmed strengths and practical limitations

A documented strength is the clear outline of core deliverables: professional coverage with one photographer, edited high-resolution images, an online gallery, printable digital files and timeline support. The site also provides a clear stated image-delivery aim of four to six weeks after the wedding, noting that season, wedding length and image volume can affect timing. The photographer says she carries professional full-frame Nikon equipment, lenses, lighting and backups.

The practical limitation is that the public site does not set out a dollar rate, a minimum number of coverage hours, a complete add-on price list, or a published availability calendar. Some options, including a second photographer, travel beyond the local area and potential overtime, depend on the specific plan. Couples should seek these particulars in writing before booking.

Pricing

Current pricing is not explicitly published. The official pricing page says coverage is built around an hourly rate and customized to the wedding timeline, but it does not publish the hourly amount or package totals. It confirms that a tailored pricing overview is provided after an enquiry.

The official FAQ says custom packages are available for small weddings, weekday weddings, off-season weddings and elopements. It also says the package cost is divided into three payments. Any budget comparison should therefore use a direct quote that records the selected hours, whether a second photographer is included, chosen add-ons, travel and any overtime terms.

Current prices are not published on the official pages reviewed.

Contact and booking

The confirmed contact page lists telephone number 613-231-6956, email colleen@colleenanne.com and a contact form. Couples can provide their wedding date, venue and planned coverage needs to request availability and a customized pricing overview.

The booking process is partly documented in the FAQ: Colleen requests a signed wedding contract and a non-refundable deposit equal to one third of the wedding package to secure a date. Dates are first come, first served and are not held until both the signed contract and deposit have been received. This makes it sensible to confirm availability before making other photography-dependent plans.

What couples should confirm

Confirm the available coverage length, total quote, payment schedule, deposit terms, included photographer count and the cost of any additional hours. Ask whether an engagement session, album, prints or second photographer is appropriate for the planned schedule, rather than assuming those options are included.

For a wedding outside Ottawa or Gatineau, confirm travel and accommodation costs. Couples with a specific venue, cultural or religious ceremony, low-light setting, film preference, videography team or short City Hall timetable should share that information early. Also confirm the expected delivery window for the particular date and what constitutes the final gallery.
