Thunder Bay Queens 15AA Hockey Session - Neebing Arena

To change things up a bit, my session with the Thunder Bay Queens 15AA hockey team was an extended one, focusing just on portraits of the girls. We started at Fort William Historical Park for some outdoor photos. Then it was off to Neebing arena for some locker room portraits. We finished off, on the ice for even more player and team photos. It was a very fun session!

Outdoor weddings in October are always a toss up with the weather, but everything worked out absolutely perfect! The location was the always beautiful Best Western Plus Norwester.

Melissa + Alex Wedding - Spirit Garden

Case in point, Melissa and Alex had their wedding last month at the Spirit Garden at the Marina here in Thunder Bay. They invited their closest friends and family, and it was a very sweet wedding.

Even though most of my weddings are around the Thunder Bay area, every once in a while I’m asked to travel out of town, which I always look forward to.
