About

Hello
Meet your photographer
Emily oppedisano
Born and raised in Ottawa, ON, with a keen eye for detail, colour and natural light. I have always had a passion for photography and believe I have the ability to create original imagery across many genres of travel, lifestyle, people, landscape and still life. My passion for photography began when I decided to save and spend all my pennies on airfare to travel across the globe. What I love most about photography is that it allows us to keep memories right in our back pocket and provides an opportunity to share stories. With that being said, I thought the name CapturedMoments fit perfectly and thus is the basis for my business name!
So whether you are looking for branding or lifestyle photography, if you chose to work with CapturedMoments, you are working with a devoted and unique eye that will work hard to capture all the best moments for you. Thank you for stopping by and I hope to hear from you soon!
MAKING A CHANGE BY CAPTURED MOMENTS
When I started CapturedMoments in 2020, on Earth Day I decided to go for a walk to pick up plastic laying around my neighbourhood. What I found in just 15 minutes was very disappointing. After this day I decided to go out two or three times a month. Each time I enjoyed my time outdoors and was left feeling happy, satisfied but also unsatisfied and sad. Our planet is slowly being destroyed by our bad habits and every effort we do will in turn make a big change.
After each walk I felt like my job is unfinished, so I began to make a bigger effort at home to say no to single plastic use, re-using/caring a water bottle with me everywhere I go, recycling and composting and using re-usable containers and straws. As time goes on I hope to inspire more and more people to help tidy our city to help keep our parks clean and nature free from plastic/garbage. We only have one home and it’s our job to maintain it!
One of my favourite styles of photography is capturing nature at its best. I believe it’s important to try and help make a change because I cannot capture the true beauty nature has to offer with garbage below my camera. Follow along via my stories on Instagram @_capturedm0ments
