Natalie, Rob and now Baby Grayson

Posted by: offthepage in Winnipeg Wedding Photographer, Portraits, Portrait Photography Winnipeg, Patty Boge on Jul 26, 2010

Oh, what a cutie! I love it when my clients call me right away within the first two weeks of babies being born... They never look like this again, so it's so good to capture it all.

 

Sydney (the dog) couldn't come to the studio today, so baby got all the attention.  And what a cutie he is!  Rob says he'll get into soccer lessons as soon as he can walk!  Right Rob?

 

Here's some cute images of the little guy and his family...

 

 

 

 

No better place to be, eh Grayson?

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

I love these:

 

 

 

 

 

We were trying to get him with his eyes open and this was all we could do for a while...

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Thank you for bringing by this wonderful little guy.  I look forward to getting to know him over the next few years.

TJ & Melodie Family Pictures

Posted by: offthepage in Winnipeg Wedding Photographer, Portraits, Portrait Photography Winnipeg, Patty Boge on Jul 25, 2010

This past week was one of those weeks where I got to reconnect with a lot of my past wedding clients.  I love it when that happens... Babies, babies everywhere!

 

Here's my beautiful Melodie and TJ with sweet little Kylie...

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Hot stuff, Melodie!

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

I love these next few...

Hildi & Jascha - Motorcycle Gangsta's

Posted by: offthepage in Winnipeg Wedding Photographer, Portraits, Portrait Photography Winnipeg, Patty Boge, Lifestyle Photography on Nov 26, 2009

Ok, not "Gangsters" but pretty darn close.  

 

They travel in packs wherever the roads may take them. They haven't got a worry in the world (no worries that are large enough to cramp their style anyway).  And if the road is paved, they're on it.

 

So when my mother in law, Hildi, asked me to photograph them, I was happy to oblige.  After all, we'll never be able to repay the amount of help they give us, babysitting the girls when my husband and I decide to go globetrotting.

 

However, here's what I wasn't prepared for: the smooching.

 

I'm not stupid, I know they smooch.  But I warn you if you're part of my family: there's a whole lotta smooching going on here.  If you can't handle it (Robert), then don't look.  

 

In any case, enough talking for now:

 

 

Hello!

 

 

I just love this one:

 

 

And there you go:

 

 

Dad requested this one, and I love how he just stood there admiring his beauty and his beast. 

 

 Nice!

 

 

 

Now, can you believe her?  Hot stuff eh?  

 

 

 

Dad, you need this one for your office!  A big huge copy of it.

 

 

 

 

Now, this is what I was talking about.  Usually I have to ask my couples to do this.  For them, I had to ask them to please STOP doing it!

 

 

 

I just ABSOLUTELY love this one:

 

 

 

 

Mom asked me to do something to this effect:

 

 

 

Dad wanted his hog all alone for a shot:

 

 

A nicely behaved one:

 

 

Thanks Mom and Dad for letting me capture you two in 2009.  Looking great and loving each other just as much if not more than ever.

 

It's great to see, even if it grosses me out a little!  

 

Much love!

Colin & Tamara - Engagement Photos in Winnipeg

Posted by: offthepage in Portraits, Portrait Photography Winnipeg, Patty Boge, Engagement Pictures on Sep 2, 2009

I'm doing Tamara & Colin's wedding this fall (coming soon you guys!) and I can't wait!  Ukrainian Food mixed with French traditions, and this time I get to stay for the reception too!  We had some time to get together and do their engagement pictures before the big day and it was delightful!

We met and Colin and Tamara's recently purchased home - their first home together.  Tamara is a journalist and this makes for a great story, doesn't it?

Well, wait till you see the shots!  

Actually, no, don't wait!  Here they are! They were having a backyard picnic when I arrived... sipping on wine that they had been saving for a year, for this occasion! A toast to their first home together!
 
 
 I just love their backyard! Hey guys, let's skip all our planned locations for the wedding and just hang back at your place! ;)
 
I love the red door! 
 
 
 
 
 
After all of this front-yard snuggling, we headed out to St Francis Xavier, and found a wheat field.  At this point, their stories intertwine: He's a country boy, and she's a city girl, but she's Ukrainian, so wheat means good luck for the couple on their wedding!  Isn't that sweet?
 
 
 
Here's some prairie skies for you, Tamara!
 
 
 
 
 
Sunflower fields and silhouettes  to end the day!
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
Thanks  Tamara and Colin for asking me to do these!  The wedding day will be a blast!

Alison & Colter - Engagement Photography in Winnipeg

Posted by: offthepage in Winnipeg Wedding Photographer, Portraits, Patty Boge, Lifestyle Photography, Engagement Pictures on Aug 12, 2009

Their Wedding is coming up soon, so I won't waste your time with their whole story, but I'll say this: I love Alison and I love her mom!!!  We met at my place after I did her friends wedding (thank you Melodie & TJ) last year and she booked me nearly on the spot.  

I'm excited to have finally met you Colter, and I'm excited that after 10 years together, you two are tying the knot...

I'm looking forward to being there and having a blast!

 
 
 For their engagement session, Alison & Colter chose King's Park - where they take their dog, Charlie, for walks all the time.  Isn't it beautiful?
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
Can't wait till next week, guys!

Sweet Baby Britta - Baby Photography in Winnipeg

Posted by: offthepage in Portraits, Portrait Photography Winnipeg, Patty Boge, Lifestyle Photography on Aug 7, 2009


You have no idea how happy I was to photograph this little bundle of joy... Well, she's not that little anymore (1 month old) but sure is a bundle of joy!  I'm sure her parents would beg to differ if you asked them in the middle of the night... 

But here she is and we are so happy for you Mark and Monika, that she arrived!

You two have been an important part of our lives and have been there from the first day I joined this crazy Boge family (though some would say crazy is as crazy does - or it takes one to know one, yada yada...)

Thank you for all the sushi nights, and spirited talks and encouragement through the years!

Blessings on you as you parent and grow with Little Miss Sunshine here!

Love you!

Oh, pictures?  Sure!!!
 
 
 See Mark?  I can even make YOU look good!
 
 
 
 
 
Just you look at these blue eyes!! 
 
 
 
Thanks again guys!
 
Let's do it again soon! (and order some sushi right after that!)

Kowalchuk Family Pictures in The Narrows, Manitoba - Photography by Patty Boge

Posted by: offthepage in Portraits, Portrait Photography Winnipeg, Patty Boge, Lifestyle Photography on Jul 19, 2009

It was a long drive to The Narrows last week... But it was a nice prairie summer day, nice roads, and I had Ira Glass with me, which really... if you don't listen to Ira, you don't know what you're missing...

 

And not to mention I had a lot to look forward to.  I was going to meet Karen's extended family for the first time as they vacationed at The Narrows Lake, about 2 hours North of Winnipeg.  The place was stunning and the family was so incredibly warm and fun... And they fed me this incredible chicken salad, quiche, cake, coffee... You guys can invite me to your family gatherings anytime!

 

Here's some images from that day:

 

Bruce and Carol with their grandchildren:

 

The whole family:

 

 

They had seen this on my website and wanted that as a memory of their time together at the lake:

 

 

I loved how Carol said that she wanted a shot of the girls running towards the tree... It was their favorite activity everyday out there. 

 

 

 

Here's the gorgeous couple that started it all.

 

 

Some more of the individual families:

 

 

 

 

And the kids shots:

 

 

 

 

 

 

Karen's family wanted some extra shots, so here they are:

 

 

 

And here's man's best friend:

 

 

 

 

Thank you all for inviting me to be a part of this celebration!  Keep in touch and let's do this again!

Chantel & Paul - Engagement Portraits

Posted by: offthepage in Winnipeg Wedding Photographer, Portraits, Portrait Photography Winnipeg, Patty Boge, Lifestyle Photography, Engagement Pictures on Jul 10, 2009

She tortures me on a regular basis, yet, I just love her...  She pushes me till I am bruised and can hardly walk... Ok, maybe I'm exaggerating, but she IS my massage therapist and I guess the old saying "no pain, no gain", holds true in this case.

 

All kidding aside, truth is, with the weight of my equipment and the beating that my body takes doing this job, I just can't live without her!!!

 

So, when she asked me to photograph her wedding to the love of her life, I could only say: YES!!!  

 

I'm so glad she came up to Lac Du Bonnet for her session... I love shooting out there!  The water is so gorgeous, and the surroundings so beautiful!  Thanks Chantel, for picking me.  Your wedding will be beautiful and I can hardly wait!

 

Now, onto some of the images.  (By the way, thank you Paul for putting up with me and for listening to my ideas! Trust me, we'll have loads of fun on your wedding!)

 Awww, so sweet...

 

 

 

 

 I love this one:

 

 

 

 

Now, this is the Chantel I know...

 

 

 

And I'm sure Mom will like this one:

 

 

And what's country shots without a little fun in the Canola fields?

 

 

 

 

We finished up in the weeds...

 

 

Thanks again Chantel and Paul for picking me!

 

Enjoy your summer and get ready for me in the fall!

Neufeld Family at St Vital Park - Winnipeg Photography

Posted by: offthepage in Portraits, Portrait Photography Winnipeg, Patty Boge, Lifestyle Photography on Jul 8, 2009


When Sher called me and told me that she was referred by one of my long time clients, Charisse, I was thrilled!  I love referrals because not only does it mean that the client who referred had a good time with me and was happy with the results, but it also means that the new client has seen my work and knows what to expect.  It's a win-win and it's sure to be fun!

So, on Canada Day, we planned to meet at St Vital Park and the weather was absolutely perfect! I also just about fell over when I saw Sher and Gordon's girls!  They are so incredibly gorgeous that they should be on the cover of a magazine.

Well, girls, I'm no magazine, but you're surely on my Blog Cover today!

Thank you for choosing me and I look forward to working with you guys in the future (petty please?!?)

We started with some sunny traditional shots:
 
 
 
And here's the recipe for good looking (gorgeous) kids:
 
 
 
 
 
Don't you just love these?
 
 
 
 
 
 
And sorry girls, Tynessa gets an extra shot, but she's the youngest, so, I'm sorry...
 
 
 
Here's when Tynessa relaxed and started showing me some attitude!
 
 
 
Ok, did I tell you girls that I have a very cute, single, 26-year old brother????  No pressure, just throwing it out there...
 
 
 
 
 
 Daddy's girls: (man, where do you keep that shotgun???)
 
 
 
 
 
Shoes!!!
 
 
 
 
Mom's girls:
 
 
 
 
 
 
Then the girls had to have a jumping shot! Yay!
 
 
 
Thanks so much guys, this was a blast!  These are just a few of MANY shots taken that day!  You guys are a lot of fun and a wonderful family!  All the best in all your endeavours!
