Luba and Dustin's wedding was an absolute dream! They chose to get ready in separate locations with their closest friends and family by their side. It was a perfect start to their special day!

As their wedding photographers and videographers we were thrilled to capture the magic of their First Look at BDI, a local Manitoba ice cream shop. It was the perfect location, as it was also their first date spot! Seeing the look on their faces as they saw each other for the first time was priceless.

We then moved on to take some gorgeous bridal party photos and video footage on a nearby bridge. The unique location provided the perfect backdrop for some stunning shots.

Next up was The Leaf at Assiniboine Park, where we captured some more outdoor photos and footage. The overcast day created the perfect lighting, and the tall prairie grass made for a picturesque background.

The ceremony was held at the beautiful Breezy Bend Country Club, where Luba and Dustin exchanged vows in the outdoor ceremony space.

After the ceremony, we took some more photos of the happy couple in the golden light. The lighting was absolutely perfect, and the couple looked stunning.

The reception was a blast! There were heartfelt speeches, a cake cutting, and plenty of dancing on the dance floor. Everyone was having a great time, and we were able to capture some amazing shots of the celebration.

Overall, Luba and Dustin's fall wedding was a day filled with love, laughter, and ice cream! It was an absolute joy to be able to capture their special day and to witness the love they share for each other.

One of the best styled DIY Weddings that we’ve shot was that of Cheridan and Justin’s. Cheridan is a creative crafter, and it showed in every detail of her wedding day. From adding bling to her wedding dress to creating her own bouquet, she and her bridesmaids truly made the day their own. The dry florals were the perfect touch for this boho styled day, giving it a natural and effortless vibe.

One of the highlights of the day was the traditional tea ceremony at Justin's parents' home. It was a beautiful and intimate moment shared with his family, and we were thrilled to capture some fun shots.

The Monastery Ruins in St. Norbert provided the perfect backdrop for the ceremony, and we took advantage of the stunning scenery to capture some breathtaking photos of the couple and their bridal party. In fact, one of the photos we took won a Fearless Photographers award, which was a great accomplishment for us and a testament to the beauty of the day.

One of the most special touches of the day was the custom arch and decor that was built by one of Cheridan and Justin's close friends. It made for a stunning backdrop as the couple exchanged vows and will surely be remembered for years to come.

After the ceremony, we headed to Wasabi Sabi for some delicious sushi and intimate speeches in the restaurant. The entire restaurant was closed off just for their family and friends, making it a truly special and personal celebration for the couple.

To end the night, we captured some gorgeous night photos of the newlyweds, which were the perfect way to cap off an already unforgettable day.

Cheridan and Justin's wedding was a beautiful example of how DIY touches can make a wedding truly unique and special and we were honored to capture their memories.

Cassandra and Josh began their wedding day getting ready together, which we absolutely loved! In the Fort Garry Hotel Suite they gathered with a few family members for hair and makeup and quickly got dressed so we could make our way to the Winnipeg Exchange. The 4 of us spent the late morning exploring downtown Winnipeg while we snapped photos of this gorgeous couple. We were inspired by colour, composition and the natural light pouring through the downtown buildings. We then headed to Birds Hill Provincial Park where the couple said their vows in front of 10 guests. A beautifully decorated arch and florals by The Floral Fixx and a rainy afternoon was perfect for this intimate campsite ceremony. A small dinner held at the Inn at the Forks followed by some night photos of the couple happened in Upper Fort Garry. This included some coloured smoke bomb photography and off camera flash.

Haley and Keaton's wedding was nothing short of perfect. They planned the entire thing on their own property, and with the help of Cristina from Xtraordinary Planning, everything came together beautifully.

The day started with Haley and her bridesmaids getting ready at their house, while Keaton and his groomsmen patiently waited for the ceremony to start. When the time finally came, the emotions were high as Keaton shed tears of joy as he watched his beautiful bride walk down the aisle with her dad and step-dad by her side.

The ceremony was very personal and full of laughter and emotion as they read their own vows to each other. The love between Haley and Keaton was palpable, and it was truly an honor to capture it all on camera.

After the ceremony, it was time to head to the reception. Xtraordinary Planning did an amazing job setting up a fully decorated white tent that was both elegant and fun. Lawn games were set up for guests to enjoy, and the speeches from their parents and friends had everyone laughing and crying at the same time.

We even did a sparkler set of photos with a small group, which turned out beautifully. And, of course, no wedding reception is complete without some dance floor photos, which were just as fun and lively as you'd expect.

To make sure Haley and Keaton's day was perfectly captured, we also did video for their wedding. It was great to see the day from both a photo and video perspective, and we're so glad we could provide them with memories that will last a lifetime.

A big thanks to LA Collection for the stunning wedding dress, Moores for the sharp suits, Jamie Kosky Artistry for the beautiful makeup, and Randi Maclean for the gorgeous hair. If you're planning your own wedding, we highly recommend checking out these vendors. They helped make Haley and Keaton's wedding day truly special.

Our first wedding of 2020 since the pandemic hit. Manitoba was under a 50 person gathering limit so Junia and Joel were still able to invite a fair amount of guests. They had a beautiful outdoor ceremony at Ashgrove Acres followed by a quaint outdoor reception where food was served to each guest. Speeches were held at Ashgrove’s outdoor patio space and after that we gathered the bridal party and headed to the Forks. We did a loop around the forks grounds with their bridal party and then just the two of them. Smith Restaurant was able to accommodate the small group for drinks and appys. Junia and Joel didn’t let the first wave of covid-19 affect their big day. They are a prime example of going with the flow and putting their love first.

The rain couldn’t have been more beautiful on Jade and Jordan’s wedding day. It was the perfect lighting paired with soft pastel pink and light grey wedding colours. Our clear umbrellas were the perfect photo touch as these two laughed around the pavilion at Assiniboine Park. We then made our way to the Hamilton Building in downtown Winnipeg where Jade and Jordan looked amazing along the original heritage marble staircase. A small and intimate dinner was held at the Inn at the Forks for a few close family and friends.

We then ventured off to Fort Whyte Alive for photos around the dock and in the deep forest. We finished the day off with more photos around Assiniboine Park and the two celebrated the night away at the Qualico Centre. Their wedding colours of true blue and white were the perfect combo for this summer wedding in Winnipeg.

Brianna and Nathan made their 2020 Wedding possible during the covid-19 pandemic. With a 50 person gathering limit these two quickly downsized their wedding guest list and were able to celebrate at the beautiful Hawthorn Estates venue in Selkirk, Manitoba. Brianna ad Nathan did not want to see each other before their ceremony but we suggested that they read letters they wrote for each other in a “no look first look”. For this special moment we placed them on either side of a door so they could hear one another but not see each other. It’s one of our favourite moments to photograph during a wedding when the couple chooses not to see each other before their ceremony. After this, the two were married by Brianna’s father followed by a grand exit to an old classic car where we did some awesome photos of the newlyweds. A reception held both indoor and outdoor was celebrated by their family and friends and we even had a chance to sneak away with the couple for a few night photos.

Tiffany & Tyler met when they both worked at golf course many years ago. Fast forward to their wedding day and these two are the perfect pair! Their rustic modern wedding held in the summer at Hawthorn Estates was absolutely beautiful. Ashley Brooke Weddings did an amazing job coordinating the days events. Tiffany was stunning in her David’s Bridal gown while the groomsmen strutted around in suits by Moore’s Clothing. The light pink pastel and greenery colours were perfect for this summer wedding. The night ended with some moody photos outside the venue and a full dance floor inside.

We had the pleasure of photographing Kate and Jesse’s Love Story at the stunning Stony Mountain Quarry. The quarry's desert-like appearance provided a perfect backdrop for this romantic photo shoot.

Kate looked absolutely stunning in a white summer dress, while Jesse wore a stylish casual suit that perfectly complemented his partner's attire. As the sun began to set, we were blessed with a colorful and moody sky, creating an incredible atmosphere for this photo session. We could tell that Kate and Jesse were deeply in love, and we was honoured to be able to capture their special moments.

Towards the end of the session, we decided to add some extra pizzazz to the photos with sparklers and smoke bombs. The effect was magical, creating a sense of whimsy and excitement that perfectly reflected Kate and Jesse's playful personalities.

It's always a joy to work with couples like Kate and Jesse, who are so clearly in love and excited to start their lives together. Their engagement session at Stony Mountain Quarry was a truly unforgettable experience.

We met Grace and Grady while literally trekking the Cinque Terre in beautiful Italy. Grady was only visiting for a weeks stay while Grace was finishing her studies on a 6 month program in Florence. Their last morning together was spent with us photographing them amongst the colourful Italian landscape.

We met Danica and Joe while visiting France in late spring. We were there for a wedding photography workshop and they were enjoying some time together before heading back to separate countries in their long distance relationship. The buildings in this town looked like out of a fairytale and we couldn’t help think of Beauty and the Beast. We spent a couple of hours with these two wandering the small town of Colemar photographing some laughs and getting creative.

Where do we start with this beautiful styled shoot! The weather was cold, a little wet and the wind was something else, but we couldn't get enough of this Icelandic viking inspired roots!  Hildi and Tryggvi were an amazing couple to work with.  We began this session on the top of a steep cliff near Vik, Iceland followed by a walk along the black sand beach surrounded by amazing rock formations and sea caves.  Skogafoss was our last stop where the couple kept warm by cuddling in front of this beautiful waterfall.  We can't wait to visit Iceland again, its picture perfect views are nothing short of wow!

We were so blessed to be able to join Samantha and Tyler in Ubud, Bali for this tropical honeymoon session. We began by taking a walk around the town through Villas and the sweet smells of locals cooking food The hanging tree vines and shaded pathways made for a perfect start. We then headed to the Tibumana Waterfall about a 20 minute drive from our villa. We had to pay an extra fee for them to allow us to photograph wedding photos but it was so worth it! It wasn’t too busy with tourists as we went in November. Some of the people who were enjoying the water even cleared the way for us so we could get the perfect view of the waterfall behind them. We didn’t have to convince Samantha and Tyler to dip their toes in the water as this 36 degrees day was a hot one!

This wedding day began with Cheryl capturing the ladies and Joel with the guys. Getting ready photos of the two sides are some of the best moments because when the couple receives their photos they can see each others mornings! A beautiful ceremony was held outdoors at Breezy Bend Country Club in Headingly. The girls burnt orange bridesmaid dresses were perfect for this fall wedding. The decor was over the top gorgeous with family style wooden tables and beautiful floral centre pieces placed amongst them. Later that night Iconic DJ Services packed the dance floor with amazing dancers while we ended with some signature night cap photos of Vanessa and Tim.

Faye-Rae and Aaron’s wedding was truly one of a kind. During the Covid-19 pandemic a code orange safety protocol was put on the province of Manitoba giving this couple only a few days to rearrange their wedding plans. Faye-Rae and Aaron knew they were going to have an intimate wedding but the 10 person cap on social gatherings was a huge shock to everyone. Creatively they decided to have two separate ceremonies and 5 separate receptions limiting 10 people max in each mini event. They began with the first ceremony for her side of the family. Her brother married the two of them and Golden Hour Creative Agency was able to live stream the whole event. They then remarried a second time for his side of the family where his sister married them. This part of the wedding was a traditional Jewish Ceremony as Aaron is Jewish. Then the 5 separate receptions took place each lasting 45 minutes long. They invited 5 different friend and family groups for appetizers and drinks. We then headed off around the Forks grounds for some beautiful fall photos. The evening rain started up during our second set of photos with Aaron and Faye-Rae but as this couple rolls with whatever is thrown their way we were able to finish off with some beautiful flash photography.

This lake side wedding in Kenora was beautiful! We had the best day with Brandi and Tom and all of their close friends and family. We ventured off to take some creative photos in the Lake of The Woods Discovery centre. We then made our way to a hidden treed area along side the water which had the perfect path ways and coloured foliage. The reception was held at the Log Cabin Tavern and the rustic DIY decor made this set up just perfect.

Kyle and Jenn’s summer engagement session at Whiteshell Provincial Park was such a fun summer evening. These two hiked around McGuillivray Falls, paddled along the lake in a canoe, popped some champagne and even brought along a few smoke bombs. Wearing complimentary red and yellow colours paired with nature’s greenery and blue sky, this session is eye catching! We loved adventuring around with these two and creating a perfect story through photos.

Hello fall! This session is the perfect Pinterest worthy engagement session. It has leaves, two stylish outfit changes and the cutest couple. Brooklyn and Mario are naturals in front of the camera. We made sure to give a lot of variety in this session because they were just so good to work with! The tall trees along a hidden trail are some of our favourites.

This was a super fun Love Story Session. We started out at the Nonsuch Brewery where we were able to grab some sneaky shots with their infamous umbrellas. The waitress was really nice and even allowed us to grab more photos in a less crowded seating area. The decor in this brewery is unique and eclectic. We then wandered around the downtown Exchange District looking for light and anything creative we could come up with. Looking forward to working with these two once again on their Wedding Day!

Jackie and Braden said "I do" during a beautiful outdoor ceremony at Ashgrove Acres.  Joined by their adorable son Jayden, their First look moment is one of our favorites. At the end of the evening this crowd was full of energy and danced the night away!

Zach and Brian are experts when it comes to style and styling for photos. We can’t help but admire their naturalness in front of the camera. They are such a sweet couple and allowed us to be creative with some of their shots.

We hiked along the Hunt Lake trail with Cassandra and Josh and their pup Pip for their engagement photos. We ended this session at sunset looking out onto the lake.

This Love Story Engagement Session started at the Saint Boniface Cathedral where Deborah and Eric took a romantic stroll under and over the Provencher bridge to the Forks Market.

This Love Story Engagement Session took place somewhere between Autumn & Winter in Winnipeg. The snow had fallen early, the leaves were still in bright autumn colours. Brianna & Nathan kept each other warm while exploring Assiniboine Forest together.

We started the session off with their dog Berkely around some trails Birds Hill Park. Steph and Ben then made an outfit change to head into the tall tree pathways. We ended off with some dim lit photos in front of Ben’s truck.

We ventured around the Winnipeg Exchange District and found some neat photo spots around the back lanes, colourful walls and heritage buildings.

We started off Salina and Mas’s engagement photos at SMITH Restaurant at the Inn at the Forks. We were lucky enough to have an area all to ourselves. We then walked around the Forks grounds making use of some colourful walls, the flowers and of course the tourist attractions like the CMHR and skate Park.

Jill from Luxe Images by Jill came to us with a vision for her and husband Kevin’s 10 year wedding anniversary. She put her touches on finding the location, the outfits, the props and we made some photo magic happen for the two of them.

This was a stunning summer evening engagement session with Brittaney and Craig. Lester Beach is one of our favourite beach locations to shoot with the calm water and colourful sunsets.

Jenn and Kyle have been close friends of ours for years. When we heard these two were engaged we couldn’t wait to be part of their big day. Unfortunately with the Covid-19 pandemic numbers rising each day Kyle and Jenn had to postpone their large wedding plans in 2020 and opt for a smaller gathering for the time being.

They held off on their original venue and decided to have a small ceremony at Pinawa Dam provincial park. Kyle has a great for love for exploring Manitoba and often he and Jenn can be found camping and hiking the many trails and locations our province has to offer so Pinawa Dam Provincial Park was the perfect location.

As their close family and friends arrived at the park we gathered around the two to hear them read heartfelt vows to one another. A small rain shower began to sprinkle in and everyone grabbed umbrellas to keep from getting wet. Just before their first kiss as a newly married pair the rain stopped and a stunning rainbow appeared overhead. It was a moment no one could have planned for.

After their ceremony everyone congratulated the couple and stayed for homemade snacks and drinks made by the family. We then ventured off with the couple around the Dam for some beautiful scenic photos. The sunset crept in and we used every last bit of light commemorating this amazing day for Jenn and Kyle.

Danielle & Rob had their first look on the balcony of their downtown Winnipeg apartment building followed by some fun at the forks market. We then made our way to Osbourne Village to visit their favourite date spot, Kawaii Crepe, for a quick bite and some fun photos! Their intimate ceremony and reception was held at One Great City Brewing Company where they enjoyed a one-of-a-kind keg of beer brewed specifically for them.
