Rothbauer Studio - Ottawa Photographer

We cannot praise Marianne and her work enough, 5 out of 5 stars does not do it justice. We hired Marianne as our wedding photographer immediately after stumbling across her website through Google. Her creative vision, timeless and sophisticated style emanated from her portfolio online and was exactly what we wanted in our wedding photos.When Covid-19 hit and our wedding plans for this summer were dramatically affected, she was patient, kind, supportive, responsive and flexible beyond words. She was willing to adjust our wedding date from a Saturday to a Wednesday with no questions asked.She was a delight to have with us on our wedding day, so easy to get along with, engaging, fun and positive the entire day. She made us feel so comfortable.We received our photos back from Marianne within a few short weeks of the wedding and they are even more beautiful than we could have ever dreamed. She has a way of making all the little details come to life in her photos, that will allow us to relive our most special day over and over.We are already looking forward to having Marianne take more photos of our family in the future and recommend her to everyone!

Working with Marianne at Rothbauer Studio was an absolute pleasure. Not only does she take beautiful photos, but she is kind and has a great sense of humour that made the shoot fun. She also suggested excellent locations that helped me realize the vision I had for my photos. Would 100% work with her again!

Marianne's calm energy was the reason we chose her for our wedding day. On top of being talented, she was a lovely presence on our special day, never in the way, and always capturing the right moments. We couldn't be happier to have Marianne be a part of our wedding, and beyond! I would highly recommend her work without a hesitation.

We had an excellent experience with Marianne. She was easy-going, helped find my lost wedding vow in our uber (thank you!!), and endured some mosquito bites (sorry!!) until the last moments of our wedding celebration. She beautifully captured moments in our special day and we look fondly at the photos from time to time. Thanks Marianne!

My husband and I booked Marianne for our September 7th/19 wedding. We could not have asked for more. Marianne was amazing. She was so professional and we barely noticed she was there. My husband is extremely nervous in front of cameras and is not very photogenic. Marianne was able to work with him to make him feel comfortable and took some absolutely stunning candid shots. She gave us all our photos only three weeks after our wedding! We are so glad we booked her and would recommend her in a heart beat.

My husband and I had the pleasure of working with Marianne a few years ago for our engagement and wedding photos.Marianne is not only professional and talented but she is so kind-hearted too! I highly recommend using her for any of your upcoming celebrations or family portraits, you will not be disappointed!

Marianne was our wedding photographer and she did a fabulous job! She captured every moment of our day, with a combination of both candid and posed photos which is exactly what we asked for. She was very pleasant to work with, and our friends and family all commented on how great our photos turned out - a few have even gone on to hire her for some of their own events! So happy we were able to have Marianne as our wedding photographer!

We recently had the pleasure of having Marianne as our wedding photographer, and couldn't be more thrilled with the service we received. From the get-go, Marianne was amazing. She helped us thoroughly plan ahead to make sure there was no stress on our big day. When the day arrived, she was extremely organized, and ensured we got every single photo we requested. When we received the final photos, we were overjoyed and fell right back into that wedding high"! The composition and editing of all the photos (both posed and candid) proved how highly talented she is as a photographer.Couldn't recommend her more! Thank you

Marianne is a PRO! Her level of professionalism, and warm friendly approach is a joy to work with....and her attention to detail will appease any perfectionist! She is thorough, and meticulous when it comes to photoshoot staging. I highly recommend Rothbauer's photography services for food and beverage photos, professional headshots, as well as interior design/photoshoot staging.

Marianne photographed our hot humid COVID wedding and made the special moments and details that were unique to our wedding come alive. She has a beautiful artistry to her work that doesn't seem contrived or standardized. I don't know how or when she got some of the shots she did. She is truly talented. Every photo in her portfolio as well as our own photos are so real and unique; every emotion and detail so beautifully captured.Marianne was also so warm and easy-going which made taking pictures so pleasant, relaxing and uncomplicated. She was very flexible and kept things simple and to the point while planning which made things so much easier. You really cannot go wrong :)
