A little while back I spent an absolute gorgeous evening out in Kenora with Angela and Darin. We ventured around close to their home, and took some beautiful photo’s in the back yard, which might I mention was amazing!
Enjoy, and be on the lookout for their wedding post soon!
As you’ll see from the first couple shots from this shoot with Anastasia and Scott we started with a couple drinks at the Yellowdog Tavern. I may have enjoyed a tasty Caesar while we were there too.
The two of them both said they were super awkward before we started, but I think you’ll see in the photo’s that they were completely opposite of that. We had so much fun! I had some music going while we wandered the exchange, we danced in the streets, got weird behind some vines, had piggy back rides, shoulder rides, and so many laughs.
Can’t wait to get out in the cold month of February for their wedding and heat up the streets again with these two!
Kirstie & Michael were married in Toronto this past winter and wanted the exact opposite for their Winnipeg wedding. Well, they got it. It was at least 35+! We went out to Harte Trail and The Gates on Roblin for some beautiful and intimate portraits, just the 3 of us. Then they had a lovely brunch followed by a BBQ in Michael's parents back yard. Everyone was so welcoming and lovely - thanks for including me in your special day!

Holy smokes was this one a hot and windy wedding day!! however it was freakin amazing too! Everything was perfect throughout the day, and a whole lot of fun was had. The wedding was held on Catherine's parents property which was beyond beautiful, florals and decor was taken care of by Floral Fixx (they did a beautiful job!).
We started the day with the first look at Birds hill park, and then followed it up with the rest of the photo's there too. When it came time for the reception some pretty wild clouds came rolling in and they only lasted a couple minutes but we managed to get some crazy photo's with them.
Managed to catch a bit of sunset to wrap up the evening, and then the party got started!
Enjoy!
Well, Amanda and Scott got married on what I would say was one of the HOTTEST days of the year! So hot that my glasses would fog up when I would walk outside of the building!
I had a fantastic time with Amanda and Scott, and their family and friends out at Hawthorn Estates. Too many good laughs were had with every one. We snuck outside as the sun was setting to capture some more beautiful shots with the two of them.
Take a scroll through and enjoy!

For as long as I can remember it’s been a dream of mine to visit Hawaii, well it finally happened! I’ve known Edwin for longer than I can remember, him and my brother were always great friends so I’d see Edwin around the house quite a bit. One day I got a message from Edwin telling me he wanted us to shoot his wedding in Hawaii, on the island of Oahu. I may have gotten a slight bit excited by this. We got together at their condo, I met Saki for the first time and we had some pizza together and talked about the plans for the big exciting day.
So here we go, Amanda and I hopped on a plane to Vancouver followed up with another to Waikiki!! First thoughts upon landing in Waikiki.. holy smokes it’s hot here and whaaaaaaat!! We’re in Hawaii!!!!!
We stayed in Waikiki a block from the beach, pretty much perfect! If you’ve never been to Waikiki let’s just say it’s kinda like Vegas, minus the casinos and smoking but with an amazing beach and far friendlier people. We soaked up the sun, watched surfers surf, enjoyed great food and maybe a few mai tai’s!
I’ll get back to a few of our adventures in a bit or maybe I’ll do a separate post for those.
Now for Saki and Edwin’s wedding day! Obviously we kicked it off with a power breakfast at McDonald’s! Amanda made her way to the guys hotel while they got ready and I went over to Saki’s hotel while she got ready with her girls. We then met up with all their family and friends on the big tour bus to make our way to Paradise Cove for the ceremony and reception. The heat that day was no joke! It was hot, like crazy hot! That didn’t stop everyone from having a great time though. Their ceremony included some fun Hawaiian traditions (they had to kiss for as long as the officiant could blow into a conch shell). Cocktail hour was fantastic, they even had Hawaiian shave ice available for everyone (seriously good stuff!). We wandered along the beach and took so many photos! Paradise Cove was a spectacular wedding venue. Once the sun started to get close to where the sky meets the ocean we headed back down to the beach for some more photos, and wow the Hawaiian sunset didn’t disappoint! We spent the rest of the night partying with everyone there and having an amazing good time!
No apologies for all the pics below. Also stay tuned for part two of our time with Saki and Edwin where we hike to Manoa Falls for another shoot!
Back in June I spent the day with Michelle and James. We did their first look outside the front door of their home, and then headed out to Assiniboine Park for photos. Every thing was going great when out of no where a crazy rain storm hit and sent us waiting inside our vehicles for 30 mins. This was the same time that a lot of High School grads were going on and needless to say I think a lot of them got a bit wet while having their photo's done too.
Once the rain went away the sun was back out for a beautiful day, we shot a bit more and then headed over to the Qualico centre to wrap up the evening with their reception. Lots of fun and good laughs with these two and their wedding party and family.
Katie, Jeremy and I met up on a warm evening in June. Katie had scoped out a few spots she wanted to have their engagement photos taken and it ended up being one of my favorite spots!
These two are so in love and it shines through in their photos - I can't wait for their wedding day next month.

I do enjoy the great outdoors, and love it when our couples share that love for it as well. Michelle and Ben were up for a little hike at Mcgillavray falls. We met up out there and made our way around the trail, which may have included swatting away countless black flies! We survived and had a good bit of fun out there. Looking forward to more fun on the upcoming wedding day!
Fun fact!! (I like fun facts, that’s also a fun fact!) Cassandra lived right across from my parents place, we were pretty much neighbours for the longest time! It’s always a great feeling when someone you know has you be the one to capture these amazing life events of theirs! After their beautiful ceremony we headed to Fraser’s Grove park for some photos and then made our way to the kings head pub for some more photos, snacks and a few drinks (fun fact, I love the Kings head, they make great Caesar’s, and I’ll usually have one while there). After a few photos around the kings head we proceeded to The Clarion Hotel to get the party started!! We even managed to get on the rooftop for some photos with them!!

Hope you enjoy!
