Isabelle & James: Maternity Photography in Winnipeg

Spring is in the air and Isabelle and James are so very close to meeting their first child! We headed out to Waterfront Drive in the Exchange District to take some lovely evening portraits of the two of them and the baby belly. It was well worth the wait – we had to postpone the session twice due to terribly poor weather earlier in May! But finally the bad weather passed and the warmth of the evening sun was glowing.

We spent some time in Stephen Juba Park but also went to the other side of the river to get some view of the setting sun against the Winnipeg city skyline. The river was calm and the mosquitoes weren’t out yet, so it was a win-win!

I look forward to meeting their baby and continuing to document their story through photos. Félicitations vous deux!

Styled Dinner Party by Feast & Festivities

Corin & Jeremy recently built and moved into their new home on the banks of the Red River in St. Boniface, and when the occasion came to host an intimate dinner party for their new neighbourhood friends, Emily of Feast & Festivities was there to design the whole thing. Emily was on hand to create a gorgeous tablescape and several details to go with the industrial jungle theme. Corin & Jeremy took care of the menu planning, and the rest was left up to Emily to pull together. And what a great job she did!

It was such a pleasure being there to capture all the beautiful details and the guests enjoying the whole experience. It’s inspiring seeing Emily do what she does best: creating beautiful elements for memorable occasions that celebrate love, life and togetherness. Having a designer with the passion that she has proved to be such a great asset for this dinner party. Below are some highlights from the evening:

6 month old baby photos – Winnipeg Family Photography

I absolutely love this stage – babies at 6 months of age! Newborn photos and 1 year baby photos are big milestones, but there’s the 6 month mark that’s also such a great time to capture! Especially if your baby is a winter baby and their birthday photos happen to fall on a cold & dreary month, taking half-year photos is a great way to capture their cuteness in a warm & summery setting. Little Odette was all smiles at her session – enjoying cuddles from her parents, eating dandelions and playing in the park. Here’s just a small sampling from the session from a couple of days ago – with more coming soon!

Molinski Family: Winnipeg Portrait Photography

I’ve had the pleasure of taking Matt & Ashley’s photos for several years, and without fail, I always have such a fun time with then! With their newest addition to the family, Jack, we headed out for some new family photos on a beautiful summer evening. It was a blast running around taking photos of them, watching them play and seeing the joy they share in their new dynamics as a family of 4. Here are some highlights from our session:
