A cute pup, and a fun couple make for a great shoot! I met up with Holly and Adam at the beautiful Beaudry Park. There’s so many wonderful spots for photo’s there. Louie the pup was such a cute little guy. It was so great to capture Holly and Adams engagement, as well as the new addition to their family.
I dont think you can ever go wrong with an evening shoot wandering around the Exchange District in Winnipeg. Rachel and Joel were great to hang out with and were so great to work with. Their love for each other was easy to capture!
There’s just something so special and magic about an engagement session at the beach. Stella and Adrian chose Lester Beach for their shoot. When I met them at the parking lot they were both a little nervous about having their photo’s taken, but that quickly changed and they were having a great time. I didn’t want to stop shooting because everything was so perfect, the water was calm, the sunset was amazing and the two of them were just enjoying the moments together. I had to stop at some point though, so I left them behind on the beach with their bottle of champagne and let them watch the last of the sunset by themselves.
Tara and Chris had a very intimate wedding early this summer at The Manitoba Club. It was so intimate that I even got to be one of their witnesses to sign their marriage certificate! What an honor.
The Manitoba Club is an absolutley fantastic wedding venue for large weddings, and small intimate weddings like Tara and Chris'. The staff are always so wonderful and helpful, and the food is AMAZING!
After their ceremony and first dance, Tara and Chris and the kids took a break for lunch, and then we met up again for some photo's at Upper Fort Garry, right behind the Manitoba Club. Then we took off for a wander through the exchange for a some more photo's of just the two of them. We love intimate weddings like this, the day was so relaxed and stress free.

Spent an evening wandering trails with Monica and Marc for the engagement session. They even brought out there cute pup!
Engagement sessions are such a great way for all of us to get to know each other a little better before the wedding, which helps to create more natural photo’s, and have you comfortable in front of the camera.
You can also treat them like a little date and enjoy some special time between the two of you.
Take a moment to scroll through and enjoy some photo’s of Monica and Marc!
Sometimes wedding plans have to change a few times before the big day happens. With all kinds of restrictions for allowed gathering sizes, and travel not allowed Alyssa and Allan made the decision to elope.
They had their elopement at Clear Lake in Riding Mountain National Park. It couldn’t have been any more perfect. A beautiful and intimate ceremony beside the ice covered lake, and then a dinner for the two of them at Lake House in the outdoor hut. They actually ended up having to come inside and eat as it did get pretty cool out. Once inside we soon found out that the other two couples dining in there were celebrating their anniversaries! So it was one big celebration for everyone.
After a wonderful meal, we headed back to their AirBNB and they got out of their wedding clothes and into the hot tub for some champagne celebrations and a few more photo’s!
Take a moment and scroll through the photo’s, really hope you enjoy!
A beautiful spring session at Birds Hill Park with Allie and Thomas, and their cute pup!
The weather was great, no bugs to bother us, and just these two having all kinds of fun while I pressed the buttons on a camera!
Enjoy!
Back in January of 2020 I got to capture Chad’s surprise proposal to Emma at The Forks in front of everyone hanging out at The Common (wow, I miss the days of people being able to get out and enjoy all of the things!). It was back then that I knew these two were something special, and people I wanted to be around. Both so kind and full of love, also good for some laughs too!
Fast forward through all of this pandemic stuff and a bunch of changed wedding plans, and these two finally got married!! With just their closest family and friends surrounding them they made their wedding day something really amazing, not only for them, but for everyone that got to be there in person, or around the world through Zoom.
They found themselves an amazing Airbnb, and decorated it just perfectly. They proved that you don’t need to have a huge wedding to have a beautiful wedding. The Airbnb was fantastic, the huge property had lots of great spots for photo’s, and even a trampoline for some fun! (Scroll down to see what thats about!) Chad even brought a big bag of golf balls and some clubs, and fired off a few balls with the guys and myself.
Their ceremony was sweet, emotional, and meaningful, leaving a few people with some tears running down their cheeks. Dinner was prepared by Emma, in her wedding dress! and everyone enjoyed a great meal and drinks together before we caught one of the most amazing sunsets ever.
A small intimate wedding may not have been what they thought their wedding would be, but I don’t think anyone including them was upset about it. It really was a special day.
Lindsay and Justin met up with me on a beautiful March evening (I believe this was sometime between second sprint and third winter. haha) We made our way around Birds Hill Park and got to know each other better while capturing some really sweet and special moments for them at the same time. Looking forward to their wedding at the end of July and being a part of their amazing wedding day!
