Sonja & Jaydan

There are some people that just radiate joy, from the crinkle in their eyes when they laugh and the way they look at each other. Sonja and Jaydan are definitely two of those people! Grand Beach is one of my favourite places to go to in summer. I love helping my couples pick the perfect location for their engagement shoot. There are so many gorgeous places around Manitoba and finding one that each of my couples feels most comfortable goes a long way! Personalities always shine through best wherever you feel most at home! I don’t think anything but a Grand Beach engagement could have been more perfect! We had way too much fun running around the beach and staring in awe at the sunset that changed colours every fifteen minutes or so! Our jeans were soaked the whole way home but it was totally worth it for these photos!

I am so excited for their fall wedding at The Rustic Wedding Barn this September! Joyful, carefree wedding days are such a treasure to be apart of!

The Giesbrechts on their property in fall Who doesn’t love a golden fall photoshoot with 3 cute little cowboys and their hats? I’ve been photographing the Giesbrechts since forever, and this year’s family photos just might be my very favourite! I had been eyeing the “ditch light” across their road, and boy, did it ever […]
