N&L Notre-Dame-de-Lourdes, Manitoba Wedding
Absolutely breath-taking, are words to describe Nick and Lucette’s Wedding Day! This country wedding was situated in the beautiful rolling hills of the Notre-Dame-de-Lourdes area of Manitoba. I had photographed Nick’s sister’s wedding a couple of years earlier in that same area and was so taken by its beauty that I was thrilled when I was asked to do a second wedding there! The Wedding Day started out with rain but we worked around it by photographing in sheltered areas such as hay shelters and for the Bride’s side the beautiful Trappist Monastery in Holland, MB. . The sun peeked out a bit in the afternoon for the Ceremony in town and the outdoor formals at a deserted farmstead and an Uncle’s grain field. The clouds and rain returned just as we were finishing up to head back to the reception. I was actually super happy about that because the clouds really added to the dramatic effect of the last few images captured of the couple, over-looking the valley. Thanks go out to the wonderful families and the fun wedding party and last but not least- the amazingly organized, creative, delightful couple, Nick and Lucette! Thanks also go out to my photography Team for the Day- Colin Vandenberg -amazing job with the Grooms side and the rest of the day, Cullen Klassen for his assistance with the Bride’s side in the morning and the formals and of course, Hubby Henry, for is chauffeuring abilities on the country roads.
I started pulling files to post on the blog and found myself laughing out loud at the amount I had pulled. So I culled it back a bit (Okay a lot) and here are a few to give you an idea of what a BEAUTIFUL day it really was! Enjoy!
Loved seeing the use of the couple’s Engagement pictures on the wine bottles!

J & T Engagement
It’s blog 8 of 14 in a row! It’s been hard picking and choosing which sessions to blog but I felt I had to include this one as it has has a bit of a sentimental quality to me since it features a family member! Our niece Talia got engaged to a great guy, Jeremy, this past year and I was honoured to be asked to be the photographer for the Wedding next summer. I could hardly wait to get these two in front of my lens and we decided on a Fall engagement session in The Exchange District.
This past Fall was quite busy for the business and I was thankful for the assistance of talented photographer Colin Vandenberg with second shooting and editing help. Colin was able to join us for the session and I’ve featured a number of his images. Congratulations go out to Talia and Jeremy – wishing you happiness for the future! Happy Planning you two! 🙂
