Marlene and Barry: 50 Years and Counting! (Winnipeg Event Photography)

Leave a comment

I had the pleasure of meeting and photographing Marlene and Barry’s lovely family last Saturday on the occasion of their 50th wedding anniversary. Marlene and Barry celebrated with their 2 sons and their wives and their 5 grandchildren.

I really enjoyed working with the kids, who were real cuties, but  were also completely cooperative when posing for pictures!

The best part of this day was when Marlene wore her original wedding dress and Barry dressed up in a very dapper looking suit. How many of us would fit into our wedding dresses from 50 years ago? I know I wouldn’t be able to.

What a lovely couple Marlene  and Barry made then and still make now!

And here Marlene and Barry are now.  Barry bought the red and white roses for his bride. Notice the lovely smiles  on both of them.

Beautiful Family of Twelve! (Winnipeg Family Photographers)

It was my pleasure to photograph this good-looking family last weekend on the event of the parents’ 50th wedding anniversary. We did this session along the river bank behind 529 Wellington.

Here’s a sneak peek of this fun family event!

We did some traditional poses but it’s always fun to just ham it up!

These are the grandkids. I wonder how long he could hold this pose?

The happy couple after 50 years of marriage. They must have gotten married in their teen years!

It was an absolutely perfect day with a beautiful bride and groom and some lovely backdrops for photographs.

Family Reunion! (Winnipeg Event Photographers)

Leave a comment

I had the honour of photographing this family reunion at the Canad Inn on Saturday. Pictured here you can see the grandparents with their 6 grandchildren. It was the first time in 15 years that this family had been together. I can understand how wonderful that would be for these grandparents as one of my sons lives in Calgary and it has been a while since my whole family has been together.

I don’t think this family could have given a better gift for their 50th wedding anniversary than their presence at this event.

This is one of the granddaughters with her boyfriend. Aren’t they cute!

Unveiling of Painting of Daryl Reid; Manitoba Legislature (Winnipeg Photographers)

Leave a comment

I love the variety in my job as a photographer. I do portraits of babies, children, families, head shots, weddings and the list goes on and on. Each session that I do is a new adventure with new people to meet and photograph. Photographing the unveiling of Daryl Reid’s painting at the Manitoba Legislature is an example of the variety in my job.

It was a pleasure to have had the chance to be a part of this special day and to photograph it. A special thank you to Sylvia Jensen, my friend and assistant for coming with me on short notice.

Here are a few images of this event.

Barb and Brian got Hitched! (Winnipeg Wedding Photographers)

18 Comments

Barb and Brian got married yesterday and had one of the funnest weddings ever!

I had a great time photographing this group of people, who made my job really easy. All I had to do  was set up a bunch of props and this crowd played along fabulously!

It’s always uplifting to see  a couple who love each other get married but this one was extra special because it was my good friend Barb, who looked smashing in her almost-white dress!

I wish Brian and Barb years of happiness as they navigate the road called life together.

Here is a sneak peek at the photo booth pictures:

Yesterday was a very special day for this family of 19. It was the 50th wedding anniversary of their mom and dad, grandma and grandpa. To mark the occasion their children and grandchildren came from Japan, Vancouver and Chicago. I could feel the energy and the wonderful dynamics of this extended family and I loved being a part of it.

Thank you Maria for allowing me to capture these precious family memories.

Here is a sneak peek of this day:marie 4 14-4sm

It was a happy occasion today when this family got together for great-grandma’s 90th birthday. Terrace in the Park is the perfect spot for celebrations like this, with the beautiful park surrounding and the wonderful light in the restaurant and it’s also a great place for taking family photos!

Happy Birthday D.

Here’s a preview of some of the pictures of this special event.
