Merry Christmas + Happy New Year, from my home to yours! My Christmas Tree is filled with special ornaments from my travels. Of course there's a few camera's on it! They bring back so many memories that I treasure every year. I look forward to 2021 to creating special memories for my friends and clients once again. Until then... stay home and stay safe!
I'm still receiving call's for portraits, family portraits, and weddings in December. I've even had someone ask me to keep it off the books. I just assumed people would know what essential is, but I'm wrong... Photography is deemed a non-essential service, so unfortunately I'm temporarily closed. I can do retouching on old photographs, design a digital album, cards from previous shoots, you can even purchase a gift card if you like. But absolutely no photo shoots until it's safe. Since this pandemic started I've been extremely careful with family, friends and clients. I have a moral obligation to do the right thing. Let's all do our part to try and get this curve down! Come on Manitoba we can do this!!!

Darlene contacted me for a portrait to celebrate her 25th birthday. She wanted something simple, timeless and classic. She inquired about bringing her boyfriend as they were going out for dinner to celebrate her birthday. Little did she know her boyfriend Tristen privately contacted me as he was going to propose during the photoshoot. I wasn't sure when Tristen was going to do this, or even how...but it all played out perfectly. [ 85 more words ] https://photographybymicheledotca.wordpress.com//proposal/

"Oh that lighting is dope" quote from Matthew, who is a 17 yr old actor...
Thankful today for Family, Friends, Health, and everyone who trust me to capture special moment's in their lives! Congratulation's!!! Courtney + Geoffrey 10.10.2020 Happy Thanksgiving!
Sept. 1 1990, was the day I registered Photography by Michele. At the time I was Magellan's company photographer formally known as Bristol Aerospace. Employed from 1987-1994. Employees would ask me to photograph their weddings and families, and it just snow balled from there! I still photograph at Magellan and see many familiar face's. I'm grateful for all my friends, colleagues and clients who have supported me over the years. It would have been nice to celebrate this milestone, however 2020 is showing us how to keep focused on what's important in life. SOOooo cheers to 30 years!

Finally back in the studio working after 3 months! Here's a fun fact. Did you know I have all the caps/gowns for the University of Manitoba at my studio. It was so special to meet and photograph this nice young man. Congratulations to Dr. Kyle Cheung on his graduation. Here's one for mom and dad!

Over the past few day's I've had every event, group photo and portrait cancel services. I'm definitely OK with all of it. The Health and safety of everyone is top priority. I've decided not to take on any work other than retouching services. This was the last family portrait taken 11 day's ago. They already have their prints, except this one. Often my favourite is not the family favourite. I spent a little time today retouching out the stripes as my recomendation for all white tops wasn't followed. LOL anyway, it's a good example of my retouching services. Be well + stay safe everyone!
Meet Nina Labun, CEO of Donwood Manor. Donwood Manor is celebrating 50 years in business! What are you celebrating in 2020?
Cutest Couple expecting their first baby. I look forward to photographing him/her when they arrive!
New job position? New Business Portrait! Congratulations to Dr. Cory Baillie! President Elect for Doctor's Manitoba.
So much fun to photograph Pop Vegas! Their Playing tonight at The Marion Hotel!
I'm not a fashion expert, but alway's try to give some practical advice on how to dress for a portrait. Colour Coordinating and same style are the keys of success. Tips: Wear solid colours, as the attention will go to your face, not your clothes. I'm not a fan of stripes (ever) as they give me vertigo. But they seem to work ok in this family portrait.
Fencing for teenagers? who knew? Such a nice young man, and I know his Grandmother LOVED the images. #studioportraits
I was not expecting Bruce Allen Hendricks to pull out all the stops for this upbeat, re-fresh. Front lighting, straight on posing and the neatest highlight's in my eyes! Thanks again Bruce, I love them!!!
Baby Nnamdi, sure was a cutie to photograph. Born on Christmas Eve and only 7 day's old here.
Every 2 years I force myself to sit on the other side of the camera. I don't like having my photo taken! The professional photographers who have taken my portrait in the past know what a pain I am in front of the camera. I just pretend I don't know how to pose myself and they always get annoyed....LOL This year my friend Bruce Hendricks with Impact Photographic Design has to put up with me. If you don't like having a professional portrait taken, I understand how you feel. Selfie's are ok for quick snap shot to record a moment in time. But you still can not beat beautiful light/posing with a professional behind the camera. Bruce Allen Hendricks MPA, F.Ph, F/PPOC-BC, CPP is one of the most decorated and award winning photographers in Manitoba history. Stay tuned for my 2020 update!
Looking forward to creating more special moments in 2020!

Eagle feathers are considered sacred by many Indigenous peoples. Today, Elder Ed Azure presented eagle feathers to @mbcourts and the SCC. People will be able to hold an eagle feather in #Manitoba courtrooms when giving evidence. #SCCinWinnipeg
Such a honour to be the only photographer allowed in the hearings.

Nice to Photograph Rick Kaler CPA for business/personal images. Different uses....Different looks! If you're in need of an accountant check out his web site http://kalercatibog.ca
I'm grateful to have a studio, especially during this rainy week. Just a sweet family for the baby's baptism.
Facebook title pages are long and narrow. Great for landscapes, but anything else needs a little adjusting. I'm sure most don't have the software to create photos that actually fit. Here's a little before/after to show you what is possible. The blank space is left for the profile photo and name. You'll have to click on it to see the whole image. If you need some help figuring it out let me know! Congratulations to Eddie + Gil celebrating 40 years of marriage!
It was such a pleasure to photograph Trudy Turner with Remax Performance reality. She's updating her business cards and marketing material after 6 years.

It was my privilege to photograph Andrew Swan. I’m excited to tell you that Andrew is seeking the NDP nomination for Winnipeg Centre. With your help, he can be the next Member of Parliament for the heart of Winnipeg! Winnipeg Centre needs a better MP someone connected to our community, who will speak up for all of us. Andrew has lived and worked in Winnipeg Centre for the last 28 years, it’s where he and his wife raised their family. For 15 years Andrew has been the MLA for... Minto, and has worked hard both on Broadway and on Sargent to be both a strong voice and a friendly face for the West End. The heart of Winnipeg is an incredibly diverse and wonderful place. But there are serious problems health care cuts, addictions, crime, rising tuition costs and we need an MP who will work hard to find solutions and speak up for all of us. Best of Luck Andrew!
I recently had the privilege of photographing Adrian Schulz owner of Imperial Properties and Norma Villamayor operations manager for the annual year in review. To read the whole story, check out the following link! https://s3.amazonaws.com//user/IP%20In%20Review%202018.pdf
Some of my favourites from 2018!
