Meet the photographer


Hey, i'M MICHELLE

I’m a bilingual, family & wedding photographer and the face behind MDG Photography, based right here in Ottawa and the surrounding areas. My goal is simple - capture genuine, fleeting moments of you and your loved ones so you can cherish them forever.

my approach

tRUE TO colour, TRUE TO life

At the heart of my photography is a deep love for storytelling. I believe your gallery shouldn’t just look like a beautiful day, it should feel like your day. My approach is story driven, focusing on those unscripted, candid moments that unfold naturally between the two of you and your favorite people. I’m there to capture the quiet glances, the loud laughter, and the genuine magic of your celebration.

I am deeply committed to authenticity. which is why my editing style is true to colour.   I don't alter the natural hues of your images, instead, I use subtle enhancements and precise adjustments to polish the details while keeping the image entirely faithful to the real moment.


By preserving the integrity of the original colors, your photos will always allow you to relive your memories exactly as they unfolded. I want to create images that don't just showcase the beauty of the day, but truly capture the emotions, the laughter, and the deep connections between you, your partner, and your family.
