I met up with Veronica and Matt at Make Coffee last summer to talk about their dreams and ideas for their wedding day and to make plans for their engagement photography. Seeing them together with hearts in their eyes was so adorable, and it was a great prelude to what would come next: a romantic sunset engagement session at Birds Hill Park with a glowing sun and champagne flutes! Only a few short weeks later, they got married in the Leo Mol Garden, and once again, it was a beautiful romantic gathering. Here’s a preview from our time at Birds Hill Park:

Jen and Wayne just got engaged and already they’ve made lots of great plans for the months to come – a beautiful and intimate wedding celebration this winter, and then just a couple of weeks ago, a fun urban engagement session in the heart of Winnipeg’s Exchange District. Having already met them a year ago at Wayne’s brother’s wedding, it was fun to re-connect and give them their turn at being in front of the camera. It didn’t take long to break the ice with these two, and as much as they say that they’re not super comfortable in front of the camera (like me!), it was super easy to get them to open up and have fun together without thinking too much about the camera in their face. We explored the back streets of the Exchange and took lots of shots. They are such an easy-going and lovely couple – it was a pleasure spending the evening with them and it got me all the more excited to photograph their wedding! Can’t wait!

One of the best ways of printing photos for my couples is by designing a guestbook album using their engagement photos. Guestbooks are popular at weddings but traditionally, they’ve been blank pages with space for guests to sign on. As an alternative, making a book that displays engagement photos with blank spaces for guests to write on is such a great idea. Not only do you get to show your engagement photos to all your guests, but you also create a book that holds two very special memories: your own photos and all the personal messages you received on your wedding day. Below is a guestbook I made for Jocelyne & Paul’s wedding. It’s an 8.5″ x 11″ lay-flat hard-cover book with 20 pages. It includes 50 photos and a custom photo cover. Ready for the guestbook table at their ceremony & reception!
