I had so much fun taking photos for the Manitoba Children’s Museum (as always)! I’ve been taking their photos for several years, and their new temporary exhibit, Motion Mania, was such a blast to photograph! It was so fun to capture all the kids playing with it and to see how captivated they were by it. Even the parents were into it!
There are so many hands-on activities, from building roller coasters to exploring motion, energy, friction, and more through interactive play. If you’re looking for a fun family outing in Winnipeg, you should definitely check it out! Motion Mania is included with general museum admission and is on until September 7, 2026.
After a long, cold start to spring, Winnipeg finally burst into colour, warmth and sunlight. Just in time for my annual spring mini photo sessions!
This year I picked a new location for my mini sessions after scouting out several spots at St. Vital Park. I found a beautiful spot near a young tree and lots of depth in the background towards the west. As the evening went on, the sun got lower and even more glowy. I couldn’t have asked for better weather!
I had a few returning clients along with a few new families at my minis this year. It’s always so fun catching up with some of my regulars and just as fun meeting new ones. I had a blast and I could NOT wait for my photos to transfer to my computer so I could start picking out my favourites for this sneak peek.
Here they are, a handful of my favourite photos from our Spring Mini Sessions in Winnipeg this year:
I had the pleasure of meeting Jenn through a mutual friend at CreativeMornings Winnipeg. She needed updated headshots, so what better place to schedule a mini headshot session than at the Forks, right after our monthly gathering with CM WPG!
Jennifer Beitz is a Leadership Coach who helps leaders lead with clarity, confidence, and purpose through honest, human conversations. She’s not only a wonderful communicator, but she has a dynamic and gracious personality that makes you feel instantly welcomed. Being around her makes your day brighter!
Here are some highlights from our photo session. Jennifer can be found on Instagram and LinkedIn.
I’ve been taking photos of Avari since she was a little baby, and now she’s all grown up and graduating high school! It was a really special evening capturing these grad portraits for her and having fun just hanging out with her. She has ambitious plans for university, but I’m not surprised – she’s smart, generous with her care and empathy, funny and spending time with her is a true joy. Congrats Avari! You have so much to look forward to in the next chapter!
Many years ago I had the delight of meeting Keleigh for a headshot campaign, and had such a great time taking her photos. So when she reached out to me earlier this year for some updated portraits, I was all in!
For a branding portrait session, I suggested meeting up at the Forks in Winnipeg to get some beautiful window light, natural textures, and fun colours. It’s a location that provides a lot of variety, and it did not disappoint. We met up on a Tuesday morning and found a few quiet corners around the market to take her photos.
She was looking for candid, natural photos of herself, not only professional headshots but especially some approachable portraits that truly captured her personality.
She was hoping to see her true self, authentic and present in her photos – and this was exactly what I set out to capture.
These are the photos she selected – a good variety of backgrounds and poses, but all very “her” and easy to connect with. She has some exciting projects coming up in the near future and I can’t wait to see these photos as part of her online presence and content gallery!
