Chantal and Shawna warmed up with coffee and donuts at a local shop before heading into the unseasonably cold weather (even for Canada’s capital) for some fun photos! We then headed to the gym for some portraits. Both are avid fitness gurus (with Chantal being a personal trainer & Shawna competing in Muay Thai. I wanted their photos to reflect their personalities and interests, and I think we were successful!
