Engagement Photos for Kyle & Jamie






What a nice couple! I think I laughed most of our time together. Kyle and Jamies wedding is coming up very soon, the end of March to be exact! Funniest moment was when Jamie posed for the classic engagement photos - Big Faker! I could tell, I took it anyway, I know she'll get a chuckle out of it.

Valentines Day Wedding!









On Valentine's Day I had the privilege to celebrate and capture Matthew & Hillarys wedding. It was a beautiful day, the sun was shining and the weather was perfect. Hillary looked stunning and Matthew was very handsome. Contrary to popular belief, they had a snowflake theme rather than hearts, I loved the decor. Thank you for letting me share you day with you!

Engagement Photos at the Forks in Winnipeg Manitoba - The Canadian Way







It was a crazy weather day but we got some keepers at this engagement shoot! Brynden and Vin braved the cold and met me at The Forks in Winnipeg. We had a great time, it was hard to get them with a serious look on their faces! Looking forward to an August wedding - I think we all are :)

New Umbrellas are Fun!






Today I had some fun with my big sister. We were testing some new umbrellas that I picked up at my favorite camera store, Photo Central. We had a great time trying out some different angles and lighting techniques. We even got my pups to sit in for a few shots, they are such hams.

Thank You

I had a request to create some thank you cards, these are what I came up with.  I am rather please with them and the couple did pick one of my designs.  Photoshop is  a great tool, the potential is amazing.

Thanks Maureen for the request, I hope you'll like them.

Sweet Boo









Today, I got to have fun with Lydia(also known as Boo), what an angel.  Her eyes will melt anyones heart.  We set up a backdrop and hauled out some great prom dresses I found at a garage sale years ago and we had a great time.

I love dressing up little girls in floppy hats and big lacy dresses.  

Here a tip for photographing toddlers, let them be.  They will come in their own time and then you will get some amazing photos!

Engagement Photos






I met with Shelton and Kristi yesterday to do their engagement photos at the Forks in Winnipeg. It was a beautiful day with a gentle snow coming down. We got a few looks but people tried to keep out of the sight of the camera (thanks to all). We had lots of fun too, what a great couple, I am looking forward to the wedding!

Generally shooting in public places are fine, but if there is security around it is best to ask them if it is alright to do some photos. There are places that you are not allowed to photograph in, especially if you have a hired photographer. Always best to ask and be polite.
