Well this one was one of the sweetest weddings I ever did get to shoot. These two are just meant to be, you can tell when you first meet them, and then you get into a room full of their family and friends and you really know its true love. Had such a wonderful time with Lia and Lou and everyone at their wedding at the Journey to Churchill Exhibit in Assiniboine Park Zoo. We even had the pleasure of some polar bears joining in to watch the ceremony.
Enjoy!
Pinawa is a pretty popular spot for engagement photo's and I'm sure you can see why! Michelle and James joined me in exploring around the park and suspension bridge for their shoot. We chased some pretty light, found some neat spots to shoot in and had a pretty 'dam' good time while we were at it. I tried some shots with a prism which you'll see at the end of the post. Not long now before I get to hang out with them again for the big wedding day!
Enjoy!
I spent a great evening wandering around Pinawa Dam Provincial Park with Jen and David for their engagement shoot. These two were naturals in front of the camera, and were up for everything I tossed their way. We had perfect weather and beautiful sunshine for this one. Looking forward to spending some more time with the two of them on their upcoming wedding day!
For now, enjoy the photo's below!
Out and about for another mentor session, this time we were out with Sarah from @sarahlmtgnphoto she was looking to get off on the right foot into the wedding business, and learn some posing techniques. Sasha and Chris were a fantastic couple to work with. They evn brought their pup along!
Enjoy!
Spring... did we even really get a spring? There was still some snow and ice on the ground when we headed out to Pinawa for Stephanie and Romeo's engagement shoot, but the weather was soooooo delightfully good! Almost as good as summer! We explored around the old dam, and then made our way over to the suspension bridge to catch that last little bit of sunlight. Looking forward to some more time with these two for their wedding in a couple months!
Enjoy!
Alright... So let me just start by saying I couldn't have asked for a better wedding to kick off the season! The entire day was full of fun and celebration. We started off in houses packed with family and friends getting ready, then off to the ceremony, followed up with photo's at the Manitoba Legislative building then off to get the evening party started with 400ish guests at the Victoria Inn. The weather was absolute perfect too, it was a perfect start to what is going to be a great season of weddings!
Enjoy!
Been busy with the mentor sessions since starting them early this year. This time Rosana Neufeld Photography was along for the afternoon, asking questions, and learning how we work. You may recognize Karla from @makeupbykarlakosmetics and her husband Wayne.

I LOVE Mcgillavray Falls. I think its one of the most beautiful places in this wonderful province of Manitoba. Great views, easy hike, and just a cool place. Its not too often Amanda and I get to shoot together these days, but I most certainly love when she can come along! Walking up the falls we could hear the water below our feet, it was still frozen but did seem a little sketchy. We hiked up some slippery slopes in not too appropriate footwear, thankfully we all came out without any spills. The next time we are walking up falls with Saki and Edwin, they won't be frozen, and it will be in Hawaii for their wedding!
Enjoy!
Spent an absolutely lovely March evening with Nor and Nikko for an engagement shoot. We wandered around the Exchange District finding all of that good light, then headed over to Fort Gibraltar to finish off the shoot. Had a great time with these two, total naturals in front of the camera.
Enjoy!
I had a blast shooting with Steph and Josh, we had some good laughs and fun times. Whats makes that even crazier is that this was the first time we met in person. Im generally very much for meeting with couples before they even book us, but sometimes its just not possible or they just know right away that they want to book us. So when it comes time to actually meeting for the first time at an engagement shoot it can make everyone a little nervous. Luckily for me I seem to be pretty good at getting those nerves out of the way for both myself and our couples. Looking forward to some more fun with them as they get married on the same day that we did!
