I love multi-generational family photo sessions! When you have grandparents, their grown children, and each of their own little families come together for a photo shoot, it’s so special being able to create images to remember this wonderful time in their life. I met up with the Malone family at St. Vital Park one early summer morning and what a fun time we had capturing all these moments!
Jodi is a good friend of mine who also happens to be a talented photographer who has been taking my family’s photos for years now, as I have been for them. This year we decided to have fun with our photo session swap, and instead of doing it on separate days, we scheduled them both for the same evening. We drove up to Grand Beach together with our husbands and kiddos to take turns photographing each other’s families. It was a hot summer evening, the weather forecast was thankfully wrong (no hail, thundershowers or tornado in sight, as was forecasted earlier that day!) and we had a blast!
Watching Jodi’s kids grow up has been such a treat for me – they are the cutest and always so fun to run around with for photos. The evening ended off with all 5 of our kids running into the lake, swimming in their clothes, and having fun until sun down. Such good memories were created! Here’s a preview of Jodi’s family photos from our lovely evening out at the beach.
If you’ve never been to an outdoor wedding on a rural farm in Manitoba, you’ve definitely missed out. Especially if Jayda and Daniel are the hosts! Notorious for throwing awesome parties out at the farm, Jayda and Daniel certainly did not disappoint at their wedding celebration… in fact, they stepped it up big time!
To say it was a pleasure being a part of this wedding would be a huge understatement… being there to witness such a beautiful wedding and being at such a fun party was most certainly a huge highlight of my wedding photography season this summer! Jayda and Daniel are such a stellar couple made up of rock solid love and adoration for each other and the people that are near and dear to them. It was an honour being their photographer, and I couldn’t have been happier with how the day turned out.
From the beautiful DIY vintage decor, to the unique wedding party attire, to the fabulous food and the amazing live band, you really couldn’t have asked for a better wedding celebration! Not to mention the location – in the middle of rural Manitoba on a gorgeous family-owned farm property – perfect!
Jayda, you looked stunning. Daniel – your suit was a one-of-a-kind gem – together you made such a fantastic looking couple! Congratulations, you were a dream to work with and I wish you all the best as you embark on the rest of your life journey together!
