Winnipeg Wedding Photographer

Winnipeg Wedding Photography for Couples Who Want to Have Fun And Enjoy Their Day to The Fullest

Documentary, heartfelt, a little bit chaotic. Exactly how a wedding day should feel.

Weddings are where it all started for me and I still love them deeply.

I am in my element with a rowdy dance floor, a first look that makes everyone cry, and a couple who is genuinely just excited to celebrate with their people. Not performing for a photographer, just living the best day of their lives!

That is the energy I bring and the photos that come from it are the ones you will reach for again and again!

HOW I WORK

You will barely notice I am there until you see the photos.

I am a documentary wedding photographer at heart. I sneak around the edges of your day capturing the moments you did not even know were happening. The look between your mom and your dad during the ceremony, the way your best friend laughed at your vows, the quiet moment before you walked in.

Of course I will guide your couple portraits, wedding party photos and family formals. You will never feel awkward or left alone during those moments. But the photos I am most proud of are the ones nobody posed for.

THE WEDDING EXPERIENCE

I am with you from engagement session to final gallery.

When you book with me, you get more than a photographer on your wedding day. You get someone who is genuinely invested in your experience from start to finish!

Here is what that looks like:


After you book

After you book we'll start planning an engagement session that feels like you! This is where you'll get to meet me in person, get a feel for what it's like to be in front of my camera, and walk away with beautiful engagement photos to remember this chapter of your life.

Leading up to the day

I'll be available for any help you need while you prep for your day, from timeline planning to running ideas past me! You can even send me "just because" photos of the centerpieces you're so excited about!

Closer to the day

Closer to your wedding day, I send you a wedding day guide and a family formal shot list that is yours to customize. I'll also have you two fill out a pre-wedding questionnaire that tells me who and what is most important to you so that I can make sure I'm documenting your day in the most meaningful way.

Your Big day

On your wedding day, I arrive before the ball really gets rolling and stay until the dancing is well underway. I am a fly on the wall searching for emotion and connections that mean the most to you! Those are the images I chase.

After the wedding

Your full gallery is delivered within four to six weeks, but you'll get sneak peeks a few days after your wedding too!

ENGAGEMENT SESSIONS

A chance to get comfortable before your wedding day.

Engagement sessions are included with regular or full day wedding bookings and I genuinely think they make a big difference. By the time your wedding day comes, we already have a rhythm. You know what it feels like to be in front of my camera and the nerves are mostly gone. I’ll feel like a friend!

We can shoot anywhere that feels like you. A Winnipeg park, a city street, somewhere that holds meaning for your relationship. Let's talk about it and figure out a location that fits you!

WEDDING ALBUMS

Your wedding day deserves more than a link.

Wedding albums are included in my main packages and I’m here to design yours with you. There is something genuinely different about holding a beautifully printed album in your hands. It is something your kids and grandkids will look at with wide eyes and maybe, that very album will sit in their home one day decades down the road!

It only makes sense to have a professional album of your professional images. We talk through additional album options and customizations after your wedding.
