The Giesbrechts on their property in fall Who doesn’t love a golden fall photoshoot with 3 cute little cowboys and their hats?

Caity & Nick’s Grand Beach Engagement Session Their love is sweet and fiery, which is also how I would describe this evening’s sunset!

Ashgrove Acres So, I am a details person. Planning our wedding was so much fun (although I am so glad I never have to do it again!). Every little thing I included had its purpose and was so important to me. Also, I am really sentimental! It took months to find the perfect bouquet charm […]

Robyn & Braedy Words cannot describe how lovely Robyn and Braedy’s Manitoba spring wedding was. The morning was so relaxing yet upbeat with the anticipation of the day’s events.

It was early December in Manitoba and it was just downright unpleasant! However everyone involved were all so willing to face the windchill for these photos. Thank goodness!

Jaelyn & Shane I had never imagined this shoot to look like this when we planned this snowy styled wedding but it couldn’t have been more perfect!
