Alex Orasuk Photography

Cool dude I’ll remember this shot, not because of the photo.... But what happened after I took it.... You see Street Photography requires a certain type of boldness. You have to throw away the rules and follow your gut. The photos that I take of people generally are not staged. It’s something I really take pride in. Of course this photo wasn’t staged either. After I take the photo I always approach the individual and show them my work and offer a copy of the image for fr...ee. Yes I do get a lot of weird looks, I get asked tons of weird questions but this time was different. Instead of shaking his head and asking why I took the photo this fella took a good hard look at the back of my camera. Turned towards me and said I haven’t felt this good in years. I was genuinely please that I was able to capture something that he took pride in. It reconfirmed that what I’m doing out here is appreciated and can truly make an impact...... So next time you see me downtown give me a wave or just flash a smile Because life is to short.... So why not remember every moment.

Portrait Spotlight Meet Mark & Janis , These two brought the energy and it made for some great photos. Mark loves his old school bikes.... Pretty sweet wheels if I do say so myself! We even managed to grab a sweet photo of an epic bunny hop. But don't start thinking Janis doesn't have a few moves. She'll out ride most of you any day of the week. ... Happy Tuesday, Alex

You don’t have to look hard to find stellar views downtown.... Especially when Parliament is involved . . . .... #myottawa #otawa #otawacanada #ottawamoody #ottawacanada #canadianphotography #ottawacity #canadiancity #urbanphottography #ubran #streets #lanscapee #podsquadmob See more

Portrait Spotlight Meet Courtney & Shanon, As I strolled through the park I noticed these two chilling and sharing some laughs on a bench. I'm a big fan of surprise portrait sessions so I figured I'd ask If I could "Snap a few photos". They responded with a smile and away we went! I can't say enough about the good vibes and energy these two share. But I think you can sum that up through the photos! ... Happy Monday, Alex

Happy Monday Yeah I know.... it’s not really happy Monday. It’s just another Monday. But maybe Just maybe this week will be awesome?

Keep climbing When I snapped this shot I didn’t even notice the little fella running up the stairs. But the more I looked the more I began to smile. There’s something about being a kid eh... Heck I haven’t acted like a kid in forever... But hey maybe that’s the secret to being youthful. So for a second just let it all go... grab an ice cream, run the wrong way down an escalator or jump in a puddle. Cause life’s to short to be grown up all the time. . .... . , #myottawa #ottawa #ottawaphotosundays #ottawaphoto #ottawafeatures #ottawa #ottawaphotographer #photosofottawa #podsquadmob #cities #urban #urbanphoto See more

Sometimes and I mean only sometimes.....You nail it! So excited to share a photo from my most recent shoot with @AutoEdge. This 335I was incredible to drive. But honestly it was even more fun to shoot. What do you think? Did I nail it!? Cheers,... Alex

STOP Now that I have your attention take a second to breath and appreciate the little things. I find that until life falls apart a little you can’t truly appreciate what you have! So take a quick look at your life and be proud of how far you’ve come Happy Wednesday! -Alex ... . . . . #myottawa #otawa #otawacanada #ottawamoody #ottawacanada #canadianphotography #ottawacity #canadiancity #urbanphottography #ubran #streets #lanscapee #podsquadmob See more
