Armenians In Ottawa? Need Help To Find Textiles..

Recommended Posts

Hello! I am a photographer in Ottawa, Canada who will be photographing an Armenian woman.

 

But I want to use in the photograph an authentic Armenian textile, in the background, as a representation of her heritage. I would like to know if I could borrow an Armenian tapestry or other textile for use in this image...and I would gladly go anywhere in Ottawa to photograph it.

 

Thank you very much for your time! Darren

Hi Darren,

 

I just saw your post - sorry I missed it, but I probably wouldn't have been much help as I have no authentic tapestries/fabrics. But your photgraphy's great! I wish you the best of luck :thumbup:

 

Oh, and i moved this to the 'help' section....

So, it is a photographic image (something like a projection?) and not the actual object that is to be in the background?

 

Why not use a carpet design for the background. If there are rug shops in Ottawa then they might have Armenian carpets in stock - or have ones from Turkey that use the same designs.
