We had the pleasure of working with Winnipeg Wedding Photography Collective on one of our resent photoshoots (of our booth and model from the It’s Love Bridal Showcase). They did such a beautiful job and we just had to share them with you! Here’s part 1 of our interview with the fab four that together create the Winnipeg Wedding Photography Collective.

Describe yourself in 3 words…
Humble, Funny, Ruggedly-Handsome.
What’s the best professional lesson you ever learned?
“Even when it rains, the show must go on, work hard, and delete the “maybe” pictures, As you will always be judged on your worst picture”.
What was the last thing that gave you warm fuzzies?
A little 5 day old girl, named Otilia, in a tutu dress. Such a unique name.
Who inspires you?
Hmm globally I’m inspired by Marta Urbanelis in Germany, shoots Canon and loves sparklers “Martaurbanelis.de”. Locally I’m inspired by Kal Barteski, who does great script work. And fictionally I’m inspired by Spider-man, he climbs walls, and shoots webs.
Describe your perfect day as a photographer.
The bride is on time??? The perfect day is anytime the sun is shinning, and 2 people say “yes”.
