Continuing with the anniversary shoots, I had the privilege of taking some portraits of the Sveistrups and their family as they celebrated 50 years of marriage.  50 is truly an impressive number – having just passed 10 years myself, it’s amazing to think of people who have shared their lives together five times longer than we have!  A few pics from a sunny and windy day at Assiniboine Park:

It’s been a busy couple of weeks of shooting.  To start things off, here are some pics from an engagement session with Nunziata & Chris.  The forecast looked daunting at first, but it turned out to be a lovely evening to be out at Assiniboine Park – a bit of a breeze to keep the mosquitoes at bay, Vinny the puppy to liven things up, and a whole pile of joggers to keep us company.  And for first time “posers” in front of the camera, I thought they did just dandy:

Assiniboine Park was packed this weekend as it was the Ultimate Frisbee championship tournament for Winnipeg’s middle and high schools.  Sunday afternoon was warm, sunny, and calm – perfect conditions for Kelvin High to face off against St-John’s Ravenscourt in the finals.  It was a hard fought and exciting game with some thrilling plays and crazy swings of momentum.  Though SJR emerged as the winner, I think both teams can be pretty proud of the way they played.  More info can be found on the tournament and Ultimate in general on the  Manitoba Organization for Disc Sports website (www.mods.mb.ca).

Below are some pics from the final.  The full gallery of images can be viewed here.
