Photography gift certificates are a common item that I sell so I decided last week that it was time I updated mine. I designed my new gift certificates as 5×5 double-sided cards and printed them on a thick eco-friendly bamboo cardstock. LOVE it. I also designed some fun round stickers perfect for sealing envelopes or sticking onto my cardboard CD sleeves. While I was at it, I also took photos of my custom logo stamp that I use on my cardboard CD sleeves too. I find photography packaging so much fun! The possibilities are endless!

October weddings are always quite special – the wedding season quiets down, the air gets crisper, the sun gets more golden and the landscape weathers beautifully. There’s romance in the air, and Joanna and Brent fit the beautiful setting perfectly! It was an absolute pleasure crossing paths with these two. They’ve got this rock solid love, a deep connection and a huge admiration and respect for one another. I was honoured to not only photograph their day, but also to be a witness at their wedding. They also had one of the best wedding parties ever! So much help, lots of love and support, and of course a ton of fun during the wedding portraits! I was especially excited about making the trip out to Carman for the ceremony. By the time we were ready for couple portraits around town, the sun was starting to set and the scenery was absolutely beautiful. I also have to say a big thanks to Joanna’s maid of honour for driving us around Carman in her husband’s limo – riding with style!
Here are Joanna and Brent’s wedding gallery – enjoy!

I’ve got to say that in 2012, we didn’t get much great weather during our very short Fall season here in Winnipeg. Yes, we still had our trees’ leaves turn into beautiful colours, but we also had a lot of rain and cold days. Not my favourite! But on the few days that were gorgeous, I managed to get out and photograph some pretty awesome people, and Ninh and Tom definitely topped the chart. These guys have so much class and elegance, yet they’ve got a fun, adventurous side and of course a rock solid love! I had fun meeting up with them at Assiniboine Park and taking advantage of the beautiful scenery. These two are so into each other and it made the session all the more fabulous. Here is a taste of our photo session – enjoy!

These guys have a little something special. I can’t quite put my finger on it, but in between the laughs, the cuteness, the togetherness and the warm, cozy love – there’s something that tells me that they’ve got something good. Real good. Isla definitely steals the show with her incredible cuteness… but Ashley and Matt have a love that also steals the show – it brings them together and it sure does look like they genuinely have fun together! But don’t let all the family stuff fool you – this was actually intended to be an engagement photo session! Of course, Isla is just as much a part of this duo, and now that they’re a trio, that’s exactly how our engagement (/family) session happened! We did get a few shots of these two lovebirds together, but we also had tons more with Isla too. Isn’t she the cutest thing in the world?!
I can’t wait for their wedding this coming summer. It’s going to be gorgeous, it’s going to be fun, but most importantly, it’s going to be THEM. And THEM is exactly what I love about these two! So stay tuned, it only gets better from here…

Meet Indira and Warren – an amazing couple with an immense amount of grace and love. I first met them last Spring and it wasn’t long before my heart totally melted for these two… they are so cute together and when they look at each other, the sparks definitely fly! It was such a pleasure being a part of their beautiful Autumn wedding. They had a gorgeous ceremony at the St. Boniface Cathedral followed by some fun photos with their wedding party at the Hamilton Building. The whole day was super relaxed and beautiful yet had so much class and elegance. Indira was definitely the focus of all of our attention with her infectuous smile and absolute radiance! It was so lovely to see Warren’s deep admiration for her – my camera definitely had a lot to take in!
Indira & Warren – thank you for letting me into your beautiful life of love. Your connection inspires me and the love and grace you have for your friends and family is worth more than words. I wish you all the best in your new life as one!
