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.

Jen knew the perfect way to start off our evening photo shoot.... by inviting me over for dinner! How thoughtful!  She knew that in order to start our shoot in Winnipeg at 5:30, I would need to leave my house by 4... and who eats dinner before 4 other than my Grandma?  So she offered to make me dinner (Ben helped!) and we could shoot all evening on full stomachs.  Even better, we had dessert at the end of the shoot, whilst planning out our future trip to Nicaragua or Vietnam... yeah, we can't decide!   Thanks so much you two for a great evening.  Here's a peek.... just one... at our session.

August 9, 2009 // Wedding
It seems so much of what I talk about lately is the weather!  Well, in this business, it's hard not to.  The forecast this weekend was not looking good, to say the least.  James and Ashley reacted to the weather way better than I would expect of most bride and grooms.  We embraced the day that we could not change, and made the most out of it.  The misty rain didn't wash away their excitement, it didn't stand a chance!

August 5, 2009 // Engagement
I was so lucky to be able to sneak away from camping a couple of weeks ago and meet up with Chris and Tania at Chris's family's Lake of the Woods cottage for their engagement session.  If you know me well, you know that a large piece of my heart stays at Lake of the Woods every time I leave it.  The summers I spent in Sioux Narrows will always keep me wishing I could be there again.  

For a couple of hours I was able to enjoy the Lake of the Woods scenery.  What a gorgeous back drop this area made for Chris and Tania's engagement session.  I had a fun morning wondering around their cottage capturing the two of them in this super relaxing atmosphere.

Yesterday it rained, and rained, and rained some more.  I went out to Carman for Jason and Carolyn's wedding rehearsal and then went to check out the reception site.  Mud everywhere!  What we needed was a miracle.  We all went to bed praying for sunshine and a breeze to dry up that yard, lickety split.  What we got was perfection.  Not too hot, not too cold, not a rain cloud in sight and just the right amount of wind.  Sure there were still a few puddles, but I didn't hear anyone complaining!  
I had a great day, and now I plan on having a great sleep!

Here's Carolyn with her M.O.H and sister Angela, both gorgeous I might add.

Wow what a night!  I'm so glad we didn't let a few dark clouds scare us away from our photo shoot tonight!  Here's a peek from my evening with Holly and Heidi, more to come in a week or two.
