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!

M&W October Morden MB. Wedding
Day 2 of the 14 Day blog count down! Associate photographer Paolo Porquez and I enjoyed visiting scenic Morden MB for this wedding. Whitney and Mike’s Day was a full day of multiple laughs with an awesome Wedding Party and beautiful breathtaking locations including the scenic Minnewasta Golf Course! We started the Day with the Bride and her attendants at her Parents (and I might add-It was an really great start to the day as it included the Bride making us homemade waffles with white sauce.!!!Yummm)We then spent an intimate “First meet” with the couple followed by some time with the wedding party in Downtown Morden for a few Formals. The Ceremony was at the Golf Course followed by more Formals on the Golf Course, as well as some Family Formals and the Reception at the Club House. I must say it was really a difficult chore trying to pull just a few files to share! Congratulations go out to the couple!!

W & M Engagement session
Associate Paolo and I had a wonderful time photographing this couple in Morden, MB.! I instantly fell in love with the town and it’s historic buildings and homes – and W & M were naturals in front of the camera! I have to say, after this visit to downtown Morden and seeing the reception venue- I’m really looking forward to going back to the town to photograph this couple’s wedding on October! Spring was the perfect time for this engagement session. We didn’t even mind the slight drizzle coming down most of the afternoon, we felt it really added a romantic feel in the images. The images further down on the stone bridge even reminded me a bit of images posted of Ireland! Please enjoy just a few of my favs from the afternoon’s session!
