See that girl on the right, that's me, an eccentric little prairie girl that is happily doing what she loves for a living! Years ago when I discovered my love for photography, I realized that the moments and emotions that made my heart race were happening naturally; capturing those is what makes me giggle like a little girl! I can remember being asked what type of photography I was interested in and honestly, weddings were the last thing on my mind...but then I realized that they don't have to plagued with the posed, contrived photos of past generations. They can be FUN and reflect your true personality, your inner child and include the little things that made your wedding day unique...this is why I do what I do. All of the adult credentials are on the website..

When I first met with Darren & Jolene to talk about shooting their wedding this May, Jolene was *beyond* excited about taking their engagement photos..so much that she had very specific ideas about what colours to include, a quilt that was very special to her and what activities we could all include. Needless to say, her enthusiasm was contagious and we were both thrilled at the possibilities and images that were to come. So a few balmy Sundays ago, we met at the Forks to enjoy some skating, hot chocolate and like she put in her Facebook status that day, “it was fun just making out all afternoon!”. When I get to work with amazing couples like this, I truly feel like the luckiest girl in the world!
- It's true... I was over-the-moon excited to shoot our engagement pictures. It's a unique way to show a couple's personality and interests. When meeting several photographers to decide who we should book, Darren and I had discussed the importance of remaining diplomatic and unemotional. I instantly failed once we met Coralee. I admitted that I had stalked her blog for several years and she was my dream wedding photographer. Darren laughed at me on our walk back to our car, stating, "You admitted that you stalked her?? Creeeeeepy!" Oops?? We are so excited about how the pictures turned out! How will we choose just ONE for our invitations??
And now for something a little different. Back in the fall when the colours were turning and the weather was still unseasonably warm, I took a Sunday to go hiking in the desert…or at least the closest thing to a desert that Manitoba offers.
- Oh summer...COME BACK! Love thos blue skies!
- Great photos: compositions, colors. It is difficult to combine sand and sky and you have done it greatly. Congrats.
When I first met with Shauna, I must say, she had this amazing strawberry blonde hair and such a sparkle in her eye that I was thrilled to be shooting her and Matt’s wedding! Their celebration definitely had a cosmopolitan flair, much like where they now reside, NY. We managed to incorporate wheat, which was very important for Matt, coming from the prairies himself (and apparently they don’t have too much of in NY..lol), the beautiful fall colours (which were still very apparent despite being early November…yay!) and hopefully these photos illustrate just how much fun we had that lovely November day…
I must say…as much as I enjoy a good summer wedding, Autumn, with the vivid colours and crisp air, is my very favourite time of year! Derrik & Jen’s October first wedding was no exception to the beauty that Fall holds. Their wedding just outside of the city at the Pine Ridge Golf Course was surrounded by changing leaves, lots of family and friends and an overwhelming feeling of love. Isn’t Fall fabulous??
On a chilly mid-September day, I loaded up the car and headed for Dunnottar, Manitoba for the lovely wedding of Mike & Jacqueline. I’ve had the pleasure of shooting out in Lake Winnipeg a few times and I’m never disappointed with the amazing locations that can be found! Considering the very temperate 2011 summer that we had, I’m sure that we all hoped for a warmer fall day but Manitoba weather is always surprising and the sun came out to witness the lovely afternoon ceremony, so we were all very happy for that! Their families pulled together and put in so much work to make this gorgeous tent wedding go off without a hitch…see for yourself…
