About
Hi, my name is Kara Wieler.  I am a Southern Manitoba Photographer specializing in wedding/portrait/fine art photography and based in Winkler, Manitoba.   This blog was created so that I could have a place to showcase my work, my passion.  Every image holds a place in my heart.  Take a look around and get a feel for who I am, and how I see.   Please feel free to leave comments or contact me if you are interested in booking me for your next photo session in Southern Manitoba.
Ashton
June 23, 2010 // Graduation
One of my favorite types of sessions to shoot is grad sessions.  And my favorite part of that is being able to go out with just one person, and shoot to my hearts content.  It's simple, but so much fun!  I find this is when people are most comfortable, and I get so many great shots.  

I could have photographed Ashton all evening.  This gorgeous grad grew up in front of her mom's camera, and you can tell!  The camera loves her!  She made my job so easy, which always makes it that much more fun.  

I can't show you Ashton's grad dress shots, since her grad is coming up this Friday and we don't want to ruin the surprise, but here are the casual shots from our evening.

On Deck
June 21, 2010 // Wedding
A few weddings on deck, in this order!  And stay tuned for some other fun stuff in between.  I am a bit thankful for the rain today, it gives me a chance to catch up on some editing, plus we're growing some grass right now and it definitely beats watering!!!

Fall, Winter, Spring, and Mosquitoes...
June 15, 2010 // Graduation
Last week these girls and I decided to reschedule.  It was +14 degrees, wet, and ridiculously windy.  Today we had what seemed to be a perfect day.  A little bit of clouds, +20 something, a nice light breeze... we had it made.  Well... then the mosquitoes showed up!!!  

Thanks Brittany, Carly, and Emily for putting up with those little buggers!!!!  I had a fun time, and hopefully you did too despite being eaten alive!  Here's a little taste of what's to come!!

Randy & Michelle
June 14, 2010 // Wedding
Randy and Michelle were married back in April.  They totally made me jealous by going to New Zealand for their honeymoon...  I wish!!!  I've been to New Zealand and it definitely stole my heart, and I'm guessing they loved it just as much as I did.  What a great place to go for a honeymoon, I totally agree with going BIG for your honeymoon.  When's the next time you'll have such a perfect excuse to go anywhere in the world that you want?!?!?! 

Here's a bit of Randy and Michelle's day.  Michelle was an absolutely gorgeous bride, but that was no big surprise to any of us!!!  

All the best to you both, I wish you many, many years of marriage bliss!!!!
