Why Choose Me?

Hi, I’m Tanis! I’m so glad you’re here!

I’m a wedding and lifestyle photographer based in Winnipeg, and I believe the best photos aren’t always perfectly posed, they’re the ones where you forget the camera is even there.

I’ve photographed nervous couples, wild toddlers, rainy weddings, and sleepy newborns. Through it all, my goal is the same; to create space where you can be yourselves. I bring calm energy, gentle guidance, and a focus on honest connection, not stiff posing or trends.

If you want photos that feel like home, a little dreamy, a little playful, totally you, you’re in the right place.

My style in 3 words

Warm. Real. Romantic.

My editing is soft, true to life + timeless. I don’t believe in filters that erase reality. I want your gallery to reflect how it felt. That sun on your skin. That shy smile. That quiet moment in between chaos.

My Approach

I guide you without over directing.

I make space for kids to be kids.

I show up calm, even when things aren’t.

I deliver memories, not just pretty photos.

Whether it’s your wedding day or a weekday walk through your favourite park, I’ll meet you where you are + turn it into something beautiful.

A few personal facts

  • I’m a mom of three, which means I totally get unpredictability and can pivot with ease.

  • My rescue dog, Poppy, is my best buddy (and sometimes editing assistant).

  • Coffee is my love language. So is quality time.

  • In my spare time I enjoy watching cheesy rom-coms, romance books, wine, charcuterie boards, having board game nights and just spending time with family and friends.

  • I’ve probably watched every rom-com there is on Netflix.

  • The Bridgerton series are my fave. Both the books + the tv series

Let’s talk about how we can create something that feels like you. Whether you’re planning a wedding or just want to freeze time with your little ones, I’d love to be a part of your story!
