A sunset evening on a white sandy beach on the shores of Lake Winnipeg… is there anything better than that?! I’m so glad Ashley jumped at the chance to get her family photography session at the beach because this type of light and colours in the sky is one of a kind!
I met up with her adorable family on the beach at the perfect time when the sun is low in the sky and the water is calm. It was perfect for getting those pastel colours, and of course, that golden light. Her girls loved playing in the water (yes we all got wet by the end of this shoot!) and it turned out exactly as we had envisioned.
If you’re looking to get your family photos taken at the beach or at your cottage, I’m now serving the Victoria Beach, Albert Beach, Hillside Beach and Traverse Bay areas. Contact me for availability.
When Helen messaged me, she expressed wanting great portraits and candid shots of her with her four boys to blow up and put on their walls at home. We immediately started planning a sunset session at Birds Hill Park, to capture a variety of landscapes: both fields and forests but also the beach.
We scheduled it on a warm July evening at exactly the right time to capture all that magical golden sun that we all get nostalgic about. (This hour changes depending on the time of year, but generally it’s about 1-2 hours before sunset).
We started taking photos on the edge of a tree line for photos in the shade, then we moved to an open grassy field before finishing the session at the beach as the sun got lower in the sky.
Here are some highlights from our fun photo shoot. Her boys were the sweetest most adorable set of brothers ever! They posed for some lovely photos with their mom, but we also gave them space to run around and have fun to get all those candid shots.
