Winnipeg Wedding Photographer | Gabrielle Touchette bio picture

Gabrielle Touchette

Welcome and thanks for visiting my blog! I'm a freelance photographer based in Winnipeg, Canada and I absolutely love what I do. I started my photography business a couple years ago after graduating from PrairieView School of Photography with a diploma in professional photography. What I learned at school was invaluable but I don't believe a diploma is more important than a strong portfolio.

My love of photography started a long time ago with a point & shoot camera, and my passion for this art form continues to grow with every shoot I do. I love photographing people and events and I am captivated by honest emotion and fleeting moments. My first love is the creation of photographic art and I'm in the constant pursuit of capturing the unconventional beauty of life. I believe every photograph should have intention because everything has a story and a purpose to communicate.

When I'm not busy shooting weddings, portraits or events, I teach photography classes at PrairieView and work on art projects for exhibitions with my photographic art collective, f/action.

"To take photographs means to recognize - simultaneously and within a fraction of a second - both the fact itself and the rigorous organization of visually perceived forms that give it meaning. It is putting one's head, one's eye and one's heart on the same axis."

-Henri Cartier-Bresson

Fashion by Andrea Pelletier

It was both a challenge and a fun experience to do this shoot. We had a beautiful character apartment in a heritage building as our location, but the biggest challenge was having to be in crammed quarters. Good thing I’m short and I only had one umbrella, I managed to squeeze my way around and take these shots.

We ventured into the staircase as well, which was a great idea, except for the tenants walking by wondering what the bright flashes were all about. We even did a few shots in the bathroom – though it had to be the tiniest room I ever shot in (if I even consider myself “in” the bathroom for that shot. I’m clearly outside the doorway and shooting at a very wide angle!)

Thanks to aspiring model Kate, and the lovely Marcie for allowing us to use her apartment (and modeling too!). Andrea Pelletier’s designs can be seen at a fashion show this coming Sunday evening at the Graffiti Gallery. Should be fun!
