These two lovely humans got married last September at the Leo Mol Garden in Assiniboine Park and with all the colours, the emotions, the poetic words, the partying, it perfectly reflected their relationship & dynamic. When that authenticity comes through visually, it’s even more of a joy to photograph! Veronica and Matt have a connection that is both deep & abundant with love & affection and seeing them together brings me such joy. We had absolutely beautiful weather, combined with the perfect time of year to get those Fall colours, which resulted in such a delightful mood coming through in all their wedding photos. Their reception was held at the Assiniboine Park Conservatory and the speeches were so well spoken followed by such a great dance party – every element of their day was well thought out and I could tell every single one there enjoyed it all! Veronica & Matt, what a joy it’s been to photograph your journey of love, thank you for having me be your wedding photographer! You guys are so adorable!

Once in a while I make time to go out to shoot just for fun, just for me. Often it takes me outdoors and it brings me right to my happy zone. I went out with my daughter who now uses my old DSLR and macro lens to take photos of her own too. Together, we could easily spend 2 hours photographing plants without even noticing the time go by. I love these unscripted shoots, just going where inspiration leads!

I connected with Jen & Wayne last year after I had photographed his brother’s wedding a couple years back. I met them for the first time at their engagement session, and they were such a JOY to be with and to photograph! Their wedding was in early December at the Inn at the Forks and at Smith Restaurant. What a gorgeous venue and such a perfect place for them to celebrate with their closest friends & family! The setting was so classy yet cozy and their event suited their personality and style perfectly. We had a great time walking around the Forks market for a few photos and braving the cold for a few outdoor photos too. Their ceremony was held in a private room inside the restaurant and it was so intimate and heartfelt. Jen & Wayne, congratulations! You’re such a delight to work with and such an adorable couple!

A few weeks ago Tatiana and I got together to chat about our plans to do a styled photography shoot together. We had nothing planned, but when you have passion, vision and a Pinterest board of ideas, nothing’s impossible! Four days later, we were at a rural property just North of Winnipeg with all the elements in place for what would become our favourite styled photo shoot together to date! Thank you to everyone who came on board at the last minute to make Tatiana’s vision a reality. She had dreamed up this beautiful tablescape, stunning floral arrangements and bridal bouquet, and I was thrilled to be there to photograph it all. Even our models contributed to our look in unexpected ways, including the cutest pixie cut that needed next to no styling and an authentic wedding kilt that our groom had worn at his own wedding. Perfect!
We have the following collaborators to thank for their contributions, they are all wonderful and made this vision possible!:
Florals – Oak & Lily
Linen napkins – Everyday Host
Candles – Barletta Beeswax
