Northern

Manitobah Mukluk's

What did I get Gary for his birthday this year?….WORK!

BUT…we flew to the top of a mountain with a group of the best crew and talent you could ask for, and there was cake so…I still call that a win.

This past spring, we got a call from TSU North, asking if we wanted to work on the new Manitobah Mukluk’s campaign they were doing, and the obvious answer was immediately yes.

So while TSU created a stunning film piece featuring the talented Notorious Cree and Kendra Jessie in some of Yukon’s most epic locations, we created the partnering photography campaign. This project took us from industrial wearhouses to insaaane Yukon mountain tops, and we also got to feature a set of local powerhouse Indigenous models as well!

This project was so special to us, as anyone who knows our company, knows that working with brands that are doing good in this world, with strong values is so vital to us. Being able to work with such an incredible set of talent from both the crew and the modelling side was the perfect way to kick off our summer season.

We’re so stoked this campaign is now out in the world and that we’re able to share it!

Hiy Hiy to our unbelievable cast and crew and to TSU North and Manitobah Mukluks for bringing us onto such a powerful project.

A place for people who love dogs...

As you pull up to the large wooden building you see a colourful rainbow sign that states “A place for people who love dogs” and let me tell you, Muktuk Adventures is not lying when they say that.

The sound of excited husky’s and rescue pups alike ring out as you’re greeted immediately by the pack of friendly faces that run up as you get out of your car.

We had the pleasure of working with Muktuk Adventures this past month, creating some media for them to use to market their summer packages.

Known mostly for their years as a dog-sledding experience company, it may sound odd to be marketing in the summer, however, anyone with a dog knows that summer is just as busy as the winter-and Muktuk let’s you experience the sled dog’s summers right along with them! 

From walks down to the river, to multi-day canoe and hiking trips, to taking time to relax in a cabin in the woods for a few days…you can do it all with a cozy pup or two, or 8 right along side you!

It was really inspiring getting to talk to the owners Manuela and Jeff, who have of course had to adapt quite a bit since COVID made such a huge impact on their business. But with determination and being able to pivot to offer more of their services year round to both travellers and locals alike-they are a bustling business that you don’t want to miss out on!

What am I an Expert?

When getting a project done entails everything from wading through a creek holding your lights over your heads, to finding just the right angle to shoot a tray of bird specimens, you know it’s going to be a fascinating ride…

And that’s exactly what our latest project with Yukon University was! We were lucky enough to get to create this series of portraits and action shots of some of the University’s experts.


From Ornithology to Mine Remediation, and Climate Change, Yukon University has a vast group of faculty and researches who share their expertise both locally and globally.

We got to learn a lot over the course of this project, in particular, just how much research is happening right here in the North that we didn’t even realize!

For more info on just how many different fields are being worked on here, check out Yukon U’s website.

And here are a few of our favourite images from the series. Thanks for letting us tag along as your students everyone!

Spark Coaching and Consulting

We hear a lot of family photographers talk about how special it is for them to be able to capture families growing together over the years, and with us…we feel the exact same way, we just happen to document people’s business ‘babies’ instead…

We’ve been lucky enough to work with a number of clients over the years who we’ve watched first hand as they grow and develop from that initial leap of faith, just starting out , getting their first head shots as they take the leap into a new career…all the way to them hustling with a full time business, landing dream clients and developing marketing campaigns to grow even further!


We recently got to work with the wonderful Jennifer England of Spark Coaching again who is one of those clients we’ve witnessed excel at what she does and grow her business into something so meaningful and rewarding. As she was planning a website re-fresh, she wanted to get a new set of imagery that would really capture her personality and depth, as her work as a leadership strategist and coach involves really being able to connect with her clients and she wanted imagery that would let people get a glimpse into who she is.

She was even willing to brave a doozy of a wind storm during one of our last weeks of fall here to capture that golden light and connection to nature…and we’re sure happy she did because we are stoked with how the shoot all turned out.

We love being able to be part of celebrating the work people do-the causes they are committed to, and the passion that goes into being an entrepreneur.

'Love Actually' gets me every time....

Full disclosure: We watched Love Actually last night (for like the 20th time) and I cried a total of 3 times. (this is Bri talking...thought I should clarify that) 

Why am I confessing this you ask? Well friends, it's because i'm a sucker for feel-good stories, and i'm not afraid to admit it. And because anyone who knows me, knows that I am physically incapable of holding back my tears. (I've also cried while watching Sons of Anarchy this week, which for anyone who hasn't had the pleasure of watching the biker gang drama series, it's a very different storyline than our beloved Love Actually)....But what can I say? I'm an emotional creature.

And what the hell does this have to do with our photography you ask? Well, because i'm a sucker for feel-good stories, it's no surprise that one of my favourite types of shoots we get to do are engagements.

Hence we wanted to share one of our most recent sessions we did with Liz and Mike! Although they aren't in a biker gang, they do love motorcycles...

Congrats guys!
