Jessie and Bradley recently got a brand new puppy, so it was the perfect time for a mini session at the Tree Farm. The challenge was getting him to stay still, but he did so awesome. I can’t believe how fast the session flew by, but I’m so happy with all the great photos we came away with! Hopefully we can do another session next year to see how just how much bigger their puppy gets!

Jen + Family Portraits - Centennial Park
It was very fun session this evening at Centennial Park with Jen and her family. Of course any time kids are involved with these sessions, it makes it that much more fun.
I’ve shot many sessions at Centennial Park, so I know the location well. It’s very easy to find great spots scattered throughout. I still made sure to keep things moving and also snap some candids here and there.

Julie + James Wedding - Best Western Plus Norwester Hotel
With only a few weddings left this year, I’m really trying to take it all in. Luckily Julie and James were an extremely fun couple, so it made getting candid and sincere photos, pretty darn easy. My day started with Julie and the girls getting ready. I spent good hour with them just hanging out, documenting the time leading up to the ceremony.

Wendy + Family Portraits - Westfort
Westfort, by the train yard, was the destination for one of my afternoon sessions yesterday. With the backdrop of the trains and grain elevators, it was so perfect. Wendy wanted to get photos of her family, since they were actually all together. She didn’t know when that would happen again, so we took advantage of the situation.

Tammy + Mike Portraits - Chippewa Park
My previous session with Tammy and Mike took place over a year ago at the Tree Farm. This time around we chose the always beautiful Chippewa Park. It was great seeing both of them again. Part of the reason they wanted to do another session too, was to celebrate all the hard work they put in at losing weight. They looked great!

Michelle + Sam Portraits - Seaman Park
Michelle and Sam won a free portrait session a couple months back and we finally got around to doing it. We chose Seaman Park as the venue, which is always a great location. There was a wedding going on, down by the water, so we just used the nice trail off to the side. Both Michelle and Sam were a bit shy at first but it only took a few minutes for them to get warmed up. After that, they were complete naturals.

Rebecca + Jason Wedding - The Chanterelle
I was back at the Chanterelle for another wedding, this time with Rebecca and Jason. This one was a lot bigger than my last one, and took place in the main ballroom. My day started about 30 minutes before the ceremony was planned to start. So that gave me a chance to spend some tie with Jason and the boys, as well as some of the closest family members.

Char + Russell Wedding on the Lake
Char and Russell’s wedding day, for me at least, started at the Delta down at the Marina. I met Char and the rest of her bridal party and parents there. After some photos, we made our way down to Pier 2 where the rest of the guests were anxiously waiting, along with Russell. It would be hard to choose a more beautiful backdrop for an outdoor wedding.

Leah + Family Portraits - One Island Lake
My second portrait session of the day was at the complete opposite end of the city, at One Island Lake. It ended up being Leah’s family camp, which has been in the family since the 40’s. Suffice it to say, it was quite beautiful there.
