Manitoba Legislative Building Grad Photos

If ever I had to pick only one location in Winnipeg to do grad photos for the rest of my life, it might be the Manitoba Legislative Building. It’s just the perfect glamorous backdrop for a beautiful grad gown on a beautiful lady. The light bounces off the limestone for perfect light no matter the weather, and there’s just an elegance to the building that is perfect for graduation photos. Gracie’s sparkly green dress was stunning on her and she rocked every single pose I threw at her. Her boyfriend came along as well so we did a few photos of the two of them throughout the session. We had so much fun and the photos turned out phenomenal. Enjoy!

Downtown Winnipeg Grad Photos

The Exchange District, with its cobblestone streets and historic buildings, is always a fun and edgy backdrop for any photoshoot but I especially love it for Grad Photos. And especially for guy’s grad photos. It feels grown up and sophisticated and kind of signifies that jump from high school to adulthood in a way. Plus it just looks great and there’s always fun pockets of light and shadows to play with and make your photos stand out. Brandon was the star of the shoot however. For me beautiful buildings and cool locations are made a million times better when you put people in front of them. Brandon nailed every pose I threw at him and we had an absolute blast. He brought his girlfriend along for some photos which I always love. So we had some fun with a few couples poses as well and ended off the night on a rooftop in the middle of Winnipeg as the sun set and light bounced off buildings and windows giving those last photos a little extra magic.

Pinawa Dam Sunset Engagement Session

Dang these two are cute. We lucked out with an incredibly beautiful evening at the Old Pinawa Dam. We had a ton of fun galavanting around the ruins, falls and rocks. It’s such a beautiful location. These two claimed to be super akward in front of the camera but I didn’t believe them for a second and it turned out I was right…they were lying. They absolutely killed it. Don’t assume you’re not photogenic until you’ve been photographed by a professional. It’s different than your mom’s iPhone photoshoots. Trust me. ANYWAY, check out these cuties rocking their engagement session like models…enjoy!

Interlake Adventure Engagement

We started off with a plan. We loaded the canoe, and headed to the rock quarry that always had this beautiful, clear, blue water and limestone and forest all around. But you should have seen our faces when we showed up the the whole quarry was completely dried up. But Steve and Leah are just the type of couple that can make the most of any situation, so we told the story, and took photos in the dried up quarry. We had some fun with it and then headed out to find some other body of water to use. In the end, this shoot became a favourite. Adventurous, fun and romantic. Just the way I like em’.

Radisson Hotel Winnipeg Wedding

This beautiful hotel wedding was held at the Radisson Hotel in Winnipeg. We did their photos at the Legislative Building before the ceremony. The reception was full to the brim of delicious food and a lot of laughs. (Those speeches were fantastic.) They even had a poutine bar for night snack which I think is basically the best idea ever.

This shoot was a real treat. Kendra made this gorgeous christmas-y flower crown and the falling snow just sealed the deal on this beautiful christmas photo shoot.

Fort Garry Hotel Engagement

We did Johanna & Anthony’s engagement session in and around the Fort Garry Hotel. We loved the classy, elegant vibes in the hotel, and of course the vine wall outside. Looking forward to their wedding next year!
