Kaitlyn & Ben - Fort Garry Wedding

Kaitlyn and Ben kept things classy for their wedding, from her beautiful classic dress, to the amazing Fort Garry Hotel. 

We did two first looks, one with her father, and one with Ben. I love first looks, especially one's with dad, they always get ya right in the feels!

We snapped a few photo's pre-ceremony over at the Legislative building and followed it up after with some photo's over in the exchange. 

The Fort Garry was perfect for this elegant wedding. Big congrats to Kaitlyn and Ben! Wish you guys all the best. 

Thanks to Rollan Temporsa for second shooting! 

Ashley + Simon - Assiniboine Park Wedding

This was definitely one of our most memorable, and favorite weddings of the season. We had non stop laughs with these two, and it was an all around really good day. It ranks high in the books for us because of a couple of guests that were at the wedding - Polar bears!
Ashley and Simon had their wedding reception at the polar bear exhibit at the Zoo. 
Not only did we get to see the seals, but the zoo staff fed the bears some treats as the new Mr and Mrs were in the tunnel. It made for some pretty spectacular photos, and amazing moments. 

Congrats to the newly married couple, thank you for the fun day, the laughs, the dancing in the tunnels, and of course for the Bronuts for dessert!

Check out the pics below - you wont be disappointed.

Bri + Paulo - Lester Beach Engagement Shoot

Bri and Paulo wanted to switch things up from the Winter engagement shoot we did, so they booked us for a second engagement shoot. It took a few attempts to find a day that the weather would cooperate, and at that we almost called it off on our drive out to Lester Beach as the sky was looking pretty black. We kept on, as honestly I thought if anything we're gonna have some awesome moody skies to work with. 

We got to the beach and the sky started to open up and create one of the most amazing sunsets i've seen! On one side you've got this amazing sunset and just to the right of that you can see the rain falling in the distance over the lake. CRAZY!!!

Had a lot of fun with this shoot, Bri and Paulo are good for some laughs thats for sure. 

I've also been trying to get some video clips when I can remember during our shoots so i've included that little clip as well. 

I hope you enjoy this shoot as much as we did! 

Mackenzie + Brendan - Lac du Bonnet Engagement

When your shooting the director of golf at one of the most gorgeous courses in Manitoba you make sure that you head out there for their engagement shoot! 

Brendan is a CPGA Pro, and just so happens to spend his summer at Granite Hills Golf Course (One of my favorite courses!) We had free range of the course with Mackenzie and Brendan, the weather was amazing, with some beautiful sunset light. 

We were also lucky enough to have a huge full moon that evening, not to mention the bald eagle that joined in on a couple photos! Thank you Mr. Bald Eagle! 

Looking forward to more fun times with these two at their wedding in 2018.

Jenn + Adam - Evergreen Village Wedding

Jenn always wanted that fairy tale princess wedding, and she got just that for her wedding day! She even had an Alfred Angelo Cinderella dress! 

I spent the day with them out at Evergreen Village, which was excellent as usual. The day went smooth without any hiccups , and the weather was perfect for their outdoor ceremony.

I also ran into some familiar faces of couples we'd shot previously and another with a wedding coming up next year. 

All the best the Jenn and Adam!

Kayla + Catlin - La Barriere Park Engagement

This was my first time out at La Barriere Park, never even knew it existed. Turns out its a pretty nice park with a great bridge to check out. 

We made our way around the park finding some great light to work with and enjoying some fun laughs as well. Really wasn't too difficult to get the two of them smiling and workin some magic for the camera. 

After we wrapped up the shoot and headed back to our vehicles I noticed the sky was looking exceptionally amazing and stopped them for a few last shots before they could drive away. Looking forward to shooting their wedding at the Canadian Museum for Human Rights this October. 

Marie + Steve - Breezy Bend Wedding

On one of the hottest days of the summer Marie and Steve tied the knot! The ceremony was held outdoors at the beautiful Breezy Bend Country Club. The weather had been pretty extreme the week leading up to their wedding, with super hot temps, and usually followed up with a big thunderstorm, Mother Nature didn't disappoint for them either. The rain started right as the ceremony ended and poured down for a while afterwards. Luckily it cleared up and I got to sneak the two of them out for some photos! :)

We had a great time shooting their wedding, and a big thanks to Katie Mirrlees for second shooting for us. 

Congrats Marie and Steve!

Danielle + Shaun - Gimli Engagement Shoot

We found ourselves at some not so typical locations in Gimli for Danielle and Shauns engagment shoot. Places I've never come across before even though i've been out to Gimli more times than I can remember. 

Danielle and Shaun met out in Gimli so it was more than suiting to get back out there for their shoot. Added bonus for us was that we got to stop off at our fav little restaurant Brennivins Pizza Hus afterwards for some delcious Ravioli bites! :)

While there was a beautiful sunset happening, it was pretty much behind us and we weren't in the greatest spot to capture it. However, shooting the opposite direction of the sunset can be crazy beautiful in its own way, the soft colors of the sky on the water made my eye's happy! So tip to others out there, don't always look for the sunset, check out the opposite side of the sky to shoot with too. 

Enjoy.

Ainsley + Ian - Gimli, Manitoba Wedding

Ainsley and Ian got married out in Gimli, Mb. It was a gorgeous sunny Saturday (while it was a cloudy rainy one in the city!) 
Working alongside me was our friend and fellow photographer Josh Lavalee.

We got a pretty amazing first look location - at the Gimli airport, right by the old DC 3 airplane that lives on the runway.  Such a unique first look spot! With Ian being in the aviation industry, it made sense to do some of their first photos on the runway and around the other planes and buildings there.

Gimli is situated along lake Manitoba, so it was fitting we head off to a pier for some group shots, then to the private beach for the ceremony.
The ceremony was filled with close family and friends, Ian was led down the isle with traditional bag pipes playing, and a friend of the couples playing the ukulele and singing as Ainsley walked down the isle. The flower girl and ring bearer stole the show as they held hands and hugged during the ceremony, it was so adorable!

Shooting out in Gimli was both good and bad for me, good because it was beautiful, and i had a great time, but bad because now all I want to do is shoot beach weddings! :)

Congrats to Ainsley and Ian on their wedding day!

Kylie + Kevin - Steinbach Wedding

We ventured out to Steinbach, Mb for Kylie and kevin's wedding. Going any place new is exciting for us. Not having photographed in Steinbach before, we weren't really sure what to expect. But we were pleasently surprised, and are still raving about how beautiful a few of the locations were.

Their first look with each other happened at a friends back yard. This yard was beautifully landscaped with gorgeous trees that framed the area perfectly. We didn't want to stop shooting there! Then we went off to an old rustic house. It was like time had stopped in there. So beautiful, the dried flowers and the accent rug in the main room were just the icing to the cake! Not to mention the love and romance felt between the new Mr and Mrs. It was as if they were all alone when their pictures were being taken, and just melted into each other.

The venue was decorated beautifully, you could tell a lot of thought and care was put into each and ever detail.

Narrowing down pictures is always a hard one for us, but we managed to get it down to just a few....Take a look at this gorgeous couple, their good looking wedding party, and beautiful decor - you wont regret it! :)

Congrats again to Kyle and Kevin!
