Engagement

Falcon Lake Engagement Session

Brian & Caitlyn came out from Toronto to Kenora to check out their lakeside venue can visit some family this summer. While they were out, we met up at Falcon Lake for their engagement session! YAY! We started down by the lake, on the docks and the beach and after getting our toes wet, we headed out to Falcon Trails Resort for a little hike up to this killer look-out that I keep coming back to. It’s just beautiful and has one of the best views of the sunset in all of Manitoba. I dare you to show me a better spot. The hike was WAY worth it and we enjoyed a stunning sunset. Enjoy!!

Spruce Woods Engagement Session

When Amberley & Myles mentioned that they thought Spruce Woods Provincial Park would be cool for their engagement session, they followed immediately with “but then we realized how far away it is and we figured it’s out of the question”. To which I replied, “Let’s DO IT!!” Anyone who knows me, knows i’m willing to drive a bit to explore a new beautiful place, especially if I’ve got my camera and some beautiful people to photograph there. Not many better ways to spend a beautiful summer evening. Enjoy!

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!

Lake Minnewanka Banff Engagement Session

David & Angelica live in Calgary, but they were planning for a wedding in Winnipeg, so when I mentioned that I could do their engagement session in Banff this spring, they were sold. It was perfect. We did a sunrise engagement session at Lake Minnewanka and the views did not disappoint! After some galavanting on the rocks beside those beautiful clear blue waters, we headed to a lookout spot on the side of a mountain overlooking the town of Banff. David and Angelica were ready with some dance moves that they were working on for their first dance and what better place to practice than here! We were also joined by some wildlife and you can see a pack of mountain sheep making their way across the background of some of their photos. Enjoy!

Two Jack Lake Banff Engagement Session

I love it when my clients are willing to think outside of the box, or in this case, outside of the province! Katie & David were totally game when I put out the word that I wanted to do a couple of shoots in Banff this spring. You all know that I love the adventure of travelling and exploring new places. It definitely fuels my creativity and these two reaped the benefits! We had so much fun galavanting through these beautiful Canadian Rocky Mountains for their engagement session. If you’re ever in Banff, Alberta, I highly recommend checking out Two Jack Lake! We did this session in late May and a lot of the other lakes were still 80% frozen but Two Jack was ready to show off it’s dazzling clear blue waters. Enjoy!

Utah Engagement Session

Sometimes photo shoots don’t go quite as planned and instead of a nice warm desert shoot on the cliff, you get a snowstorm and zero visibility! BUT even though it’s not what we had imagined, it was beautiful and fun and adventurous in it’s own way. Back in March, I had the pleasure of attending the Rooted Workshop in Moab, Utah. It was amazing to get to know a bunch of other female photographers like myself and to explore a brand new place. We collaboratively shot three styled sessions in the desert and while this may have been the coldest one, I thought the snow just added that much more dimension to the photos. Enjoy!

Sydney, Australia Engagement Session

Jake & Ineke won a give-away that I did with White Fox Videography!! We were going to be in Sydney, Australia at the same time for a wedding and really wanted to do a couples session on the beach together as well so Kyra put out the word and this lovely couple won!! They hadn’t had an engagement session so this was so perfect for them! We had the best evening and the sunset was seriously out of this world. This session is everything I pictured when I imagined a beach session in Australia. Enjoy!

private island Lake engagement session

When you have a cabin on a private island on a beautiful lake, it’s kind of a no-brainer to do your engagement session there. I wanted to stay forever. These two and their pup hopped on paddle boards for a bit and we ended the session with some gorgeous shots that I took from a kayak. Enjoy!
