Blake: Newborn Photography in Winnipeg

Shawna and Brad just added a third little kiddo to their family and I was invited into their home to capture all the candid moments that make up their busy yet beautiful and fun life as a family of 5. The two older sisters are excited to have a baby brother, but they were also just as excited to jump on their parents’ bed for a few photos. These guys are absolutely adorable and it’s always such a pleasure taking photos for them!

Styled Mini Sessions: Kids at Play

Back in March I hosted another round of kids mini sessions, and as always, I got such a great bunch of CUTE kids! The styling by Danielle of Mûr Lifestyle and the florals & garland by Tatiana of Oak & Lily just finished the scene perfectly, and every kid had so much fun playing and reading books. What a delight it is to watch kids at play – each and everyone of them brought such unique personalities and playfulness. Thank you to all who came down, Danielle and I are already talking about planning our next one. Stay tuned for details later this year!

Winnipeg Winter Engagement Session at the Hamilton Building

I met up with these two as they were celebrating their recent engagement in Winnipeg. It was a cold winter day, so we started the session indoors at Winnipeg’s beautiful and historic Hamilton Building on Main Street. But a winter photo session wouldn’t be complete without going outdoors in the snow so we then headed to St. Vital Park to capture a few more portraits. Congratulations to these two lovebirds, who will be heading out of country for their wedding in just a few short months!

August: Family Photography in Winnipeg

Stephanie & Mike just added a second little kiddo to their family and to help celebrate the new addition, we all got together for a fun indoor family photo session in the middle of January. We all know how quickly the baby stage goes by, so it was important that we book the session right away and capture some of the unique dynamics a family enjoys when kids are still really young. August was a champ, sporting his fancy bow tie and giving adorable smiles in between a few grumpy spells. Emily is amazing at her job as big sister, giving her baby brother tons of kisses and cuddles throughout the session. I had a lovely time with the four of them and I’m happy that they now have these photos to remember this time in their family journey!

Mara + Stefan: Engagement Photography at the Winnipeg Airport

160220GT6015

Mara & Stefan’s relationship has traveled over many miles (literally) so the idea to do their engagement photos at the Winnipeg Airport was perfectly fitting. The location has gorgeous natural light and modern architecture – and combined with Mara’s travel-themed props, the photos reflected a lot of their journey together as a couple. They are absolutely adorable, as much on camera as in real life, and knowing that Mara is now joining my extended family, I couldn’t be happier!

This is part 1 of their engagement session. Part 2 was an outdoor session in the woods, and those photos will be blogged soon too. Congratulations on your engagement you two loveb160220GT5803 160220GT5819 160220GT5832 160220GT5886 160220GT5898 160220GT5909 160220GT5977 160220GT5986 160220GT5992 160220GT6015 160220GT6045 160220GT6063 160220GT6093 160220GT6119 160220GT6130 160220GT6147 160220GT6167 160220GT6180 160220GT6267 160220GT6305 160220GT6311 160220GT6339 160220GT6341 160220GT6374 160220GT6388 160220GT6392 160220GT6407 160220GT6422 160220GT6433 160220GT6486 160220GT6564 160220GT6584 160220GT6616 160220GT6675 160220GT6681 160220GT6719 160220GT6800 160220GT6814 160220GT6828 160220GT6850 160220GT6921 160220GT6937 160220GT6945 160220GT6983 160220GT7010 160220GT7032 160220GT7038 160220GT7066 160220GT7140 160220GT7146 160220GT7181irds!
