When I first photographed Danielle and Jon last year for their engagement session, I had a really good feeling about their upcoming wedding day. These two make a solid couple, they are a ton of fun and the love they share is as strong as can be. They’re so into each other and that really is the simple secret behind a great photo!
Their wedding day was absolutely magical – rumbling storm clouds in the distance, warm summer air and a beautiful setting at Bridges Golf Course. The rain held off up until we were done our outdoor photos which meant beautiful dark skies contrasted with the brightly coloured landscape! Perfect! FĂ©licitations Danielle et Jon… votre amour est inspirante!

I had the wonderful pleasure of meeting Laura earlier this summer for a lovely headshot photo session at the Forks in Winnipeg. Laura is a super talented and highly celebrated pianist and she needed some fresh new headshots for her professional career. I had a great time taking these photos for her and not only is she an incredibly warm and passionate person, she’s also full of energy and an all-around amazing person to be with. We also made the connection that she was my friend Rachel’s piano teacher! And little did we know that we would both see each other again at Rachel’s wedding that I photographed just a few weeks ago! Small world. Or perhaps it’s just that Winnipeg is a small city. 🙂
All the best Laura as you continue in your many successful endeavours!

Earlier this summer I had a wonderful double photo session with three beautiful families and whose kids were the stars of the two shoots! Their connection? They’re all cousins! (and apparently really good friends too!)
I had a great time running around the Nature Playground at Assiniboine Park with these kids on two separate days. They were such a dream to work with (so much energy, so many smiles and so cooperative!) and the photos turned out great because of their wonderful participation. Ok, there may have been some bribing with stickers and gum… but who doesn’t like stickers and gum?!
Here’s a highlight from both sessions. Enjoy the cuteness overload! 🙂

It’s kind of nice when I can say that it sort of feels like I go waaaay back with Ashley and Chris… although we only met about a year before their wedding, we’ve had countless get togethers, meetings and photo shoots since then, and by now it feels like we’re old pals! And that’s a pretty easy thing to come by with them… they’re super friendly, a ton of fun and an amazing couple. You can’t really ask for much more! It’s been an absolute pleasure working with them and when your clients are this much fun, it hardly feels like work.
Ashley and Chris were married earlier this summer at the Gates on Roblin and had the most perfect July weather for their big day. The outdoor ceremony was beautiful, the wedding party was super fun, the photo locations were awesome and the reception was a riot! There were lots of tears (of joy, of course!), a ton of laughter and seeing all their close friends and family gather together to celebrate their love made you truly believe that this was something worth more than words can describe.
I’m grateful to have been a part of it (and grateful that Chris was well enough to go on with the big day despite his recent neck injury!!), and I hope that these photos will serve as a reminder of the strength and beauty that their love creates. Congratulations you two, I look forward to future photo shoots together!
PS: You may have noticed that I am way behind in blogging… it’s been a crazy busy summer! I’m doing my best to blog everything before the snow arrives, but you can always visit my Facebook page for all the latest updates! Most of the day-after sneak peeks can be seen there and I update it way sooner than I do on my blog. Check it out here!
