Current River Comets - Grandview Gardens
My latest hockey photo session was with the Current River Comets at Grandview Gardens. Amongst the chaos in the dressing room we managed to get player portraits of each of the kids in there. Then it was time to get out on the ice for the group shot, and something a little bit different this time around.
Remembrance Day 2022 - Waverley Park
Highlights from this year’s Remembrance Day service at Waverley Park in Thunder Bay.
Alisha + Kih Portraits - Trowbridge Falls
My recent mini-session with Alisha + Kih at Trowbridge Falls had about 3 different weather systems in the span of 30 minutes, but that made for an extremely fun and spontaneous session. It started with overcast skies, then quickly turned to large hail and eventually to clearing skies.
Helen Pelletier Birch Bark Back Pack
Here are a few highlight from my studio session with Helen Pelletier, an absolutely amazing indigenous artist here in Thunder Bay. These are all photos of her latest winter birch bark back pack. I couldn’t over the amount of work that went into creating this.
Ingrid + Vince Wedding - Delta Hotels by Marriott
My second last wedding of the year was a family affair, which is was a nice change of pace. That doesn’t mean it was an easy day though. I still worked just as hard, if not harder, than my usual wedding days. With that being said, it was really nice knowing a lot of people at a wedding.
Alexa Family Portraits - Centennial Park
My second session of the day was with Alexa and her 3 wonderful children. Right from the start, we made our way up into the forest using the path and the session flew by. All 3 of the little ones were absolutely fearless. They were running, climbing, falling and rolling around. It was a fun and chaotic session, with a lot of great little moments that I did my best to capture.
Kaylee + Carter Portraits - Baseball Central
It was that time of year for my annual session with Kaylee and Carter. This time around Lincoln and Vicki picked a slightly different location in Baseball Central. The main reason being for the nice fall colours surrounding the park, and secondly, because it has a lot of memories too.
U11 Flames Hockey Photos - Grandview Arena
It was time for another hockey session, this time with the boys U11 Flames team. Just like the last one with the U13 Girls team, we did all the player portraits in the change room, the the team photo on the ice. That left a little bit of time for me to capture some of their practice.
U13 Fury Hockey Photos - Fort William First Nation - Sports Arena
One area of photography that has always piqued my interest is hockey. Luckily I was recently contacted by a friend who wanted to have some player portraits and action shots of her U13 Girls Hockey Team. I jumped at the chance to do so and I’m so glad I did.
Kahla + Family Portrait Session - Tree Farm
My second of two mini-sessions at the Tree Farm this past weekend was with Kahla and her family. Having just photographed their wedding a couple months, I was super excited I got to do a portrait session with them. They are such a beautiful family.
Lisa + Family Portrait Session - Tree Farm
I still can’t believe how nice it was at the Tree Farm for my most recent mini sessions. It felt like summer. Hopefully this weather lasts a bit longer. Lisa and her family were such a pleasure to photograph. As always I got a good mix of posed photos and a few candids mixed in for good measure.
Erin + John Wedding - The Chanterelle
Erin and John said their vows on the very first day of this month and I was happy to be there to capture their wedding day. With only a couple more weddings this year before the season wraps up, I’m thankful for every single wedding I have had the pleasure of photographing.
Eden + Chris Family Portraits
My afternoon session today took me all the way out to Kakabeka to photograph Eden and her family on their property. It was great to once again be out there as it’s been over a year since the last time. She said there were a couple suprises for me when I arrived so I was curious as to what that could be. Well … it turns out they now have 13 week old twin boys and a second dog!
Makaila + Family Portraits - Cascades
I’ve stopped counting how many sessions I have done with Makaila and Lucas over the years, which is a good thing. As each year passes, Lucas keeps growing and getting more and more of a personality. He ran the show once again this time, as we were back again at Cascades.
ONWA Sisters in Spirit Vigil
This afternoon ONWA hosted their annual Sisters in Spirit Vigil to support, raise awareness, and honour the stories, experiences, and lives of Missing and Murdered Indigenous Women and Girls (MMIWG).
FWFN Fall Powwow - Thunder Mountain Powwow Grounds
As part of Orange Shirt Day, FWFN hosted their annual Fall Powwow up on Thunder Mountain. It was a very special Powwow because September 30th is also now National Day for Truth and Reconciliation. It was such an amazing turnout and I was so thankful to be a part of it.
Kaylin + Adam Engagement - Trowbridge Falls
Kaylin and Adam are getting married next year but I was lucky enough to get them out for an engagement session this past weekend at Trowbridge Falls. I absolutely love meeting couples, and especially photographing them, before their actual wedding.
Olivia + Jacob Celebration of Commitment + Wedding
It was very last minute, but I got asked to second shoot a very special day with Olivia and Jacob. Their celebration of commitment/wedding was such an emotional and heartwarming day, that I am very thankful to have been a part of.
ONWA Family Fun Day 2022
ONWA once again put on a Family Fun Day. The turnout was amazing and there were so many moments I was able to capture. It was great to see so many smiling faces. :)
Jennifer + Les Wedding - Delta Hotel Thunder Bay
The Delta Hotel was once again the latest location for a recent wedding I captured. Jennifer and Les were the beautiful bride and groom this time around, and it ended up being a very memorable and fun day. My day started about an hour before the ceremony which gave me some time to capture the details of the ballroom and some of the arriving guests.
