River Heights Photographer

Relaxed, natural family, newborn and maternity photography in the tree-lined streets of River Heights, Winnipeg.

Photography in River Heights

River Heights is all mature elms, quiet boulevards and river paths — a gentle, lived-in backdrop that works beautifully for lifestyle sessions. It is also ideal when you would rather photograph close to home with young children or a new baby.

Favourite River Heights photo spots

  • The elm-canopied residential streets. Arches of green in summer, golden light in autumn — a signature Winnipeg look.
  • Munson Park. A compact, pretty green space that is easy with strollers and toddlers.
  • Omand’s Creek pathway. Water, footbridges and tall grass for candid couple and family photos.
  • The Assiniboine River dike paths near Wellington Crescent. Open river views and grand old trees a short walk from home.
  • Your own front porch or back garden. For newborn and milestone sessions, familiar surroundings keep everyone comfortable.

Sessions that suit River Heights

River Heights is a natural fit for family photography, at-home newborn sessions, maternity portraits and senior grad photos.

Planning your session

Early morning or the hour before sunset gives the softest light through the tree canopy. Autumn, when the elms turn, is the busiest and most beautiful time to book.
