Hi there! I’m Jana.
Choosing a photographer is one of the most important decisions when planning your wedding. You want to make sure you’re choosing a photographer whose work you connect with, but just as importantly, whose personality you connect with. I know it’s not easy to get a good feel for who somebody is through a website, but hopefully through reading about my experiences and my stories, you can get a peek into my life. I hope that with this blog I can give brides & grooms, their friends and family, and everyone out there a better idea of who I am and what I love to do.
Wedding photography is my passion. It’s my dream job, and I love what I do. I do, after all, get to spend most of my weekends celebrating with gorgeous, glowing people on one of the biggest days of their lives. I like to think that that passion shows through my work, and in the relationships we form. I believe in creating fun, fresh and honest images filled with emotion that tell the true story of your wedding day. Send me an email at jana@winkphotography.ca to tell me more about yourself and what you’re looking for. I can’t wait to hear more about your big day!
Interaction is welcome, so please don’t be shy! I hope to hear from you. Happy perusing!
2 years already.April 30th, 2012Tweet 2 years ago today we brought a new little person into the world, and in a way I became a new person myself.

2 years ago today we brought a new little person into the world, and in a way I became a new person myself. Quinn has changed my life in more incredible ways than I ever could have imagined, and I just love her more and more every day. She’s such a little adult already that I often wonder if she’s teaching us more than we’re teaching her.
Each of these photos is taken in the same spot almost exactly 1 year apart. Amazing how the time has flown by.
Happy Birthday little one!
Moore Family Photos – Queen Elizabeth ParkNovember 1st, 2011Tweet I love fall. It’s the time of year when I carry my camera (not just my iphone) with me everywhere. So I’m even more excited when my clients want photo shoots in the fall, keeps me from just wandering aimlessly taking pictures of leaves. Amy made one of these images her Facebook profile photo [...] |

Amy made one of these images her Facebook profile photo this week, mentioning that it had been exactly 1 year since we did this shoot….and I realized this blog post had slipped through the cracks! I photographed Amy & Tyler’s wedding almost 3 years ago, and we became instant friends. And I’m so excited to have our little ones born only 1 day apart, who can become great friends too.
Look at the sweet little hand pose. This kid knows he’s cute.
I can never resist a good outtake.
Looking forward to another family photo session in the future. This time including brand new little Annie! How time flies….
Like Mother Like Daughter.August 1st, 2011Tweet It’s not easy to think of Mother’s/Father’s Day gifts for your parents after 30-some years, but since we’ve had Quinn it’s gotten a lot easier! The photo on the left was hanging in our basement (24×36″ no less) during my entire childhood. I didn’t find it nearly as adorable as they did, especially when [...] |
It’s not easy to think of Mother’s/Father’s Day gifts for your parents after 30-some years, but since we’ve had Quinn it’s gotten a lot easier! The photo on the left was hanging in our basement (24×36″ no less) during my entire childhood. I didn’t find it nearly as adorable as they did, especially when I was trying to be a cool and sophisticated 8 year old in front of my friends.
But I get it now. We did this photo shoot with Quinn as a gift to my parents, and now I’ll always have this photo blown up on the wall for all her friends to see.
Sorry, little one. Your life is going to be full of embarrassing smooches in public, and proud displaying of naked baby photos. Might as well get used to it.
Oro – Brand NewMay 19th, 2011Tweet Rob & Anna (who you met in the previous post) are now the proud parents of baby Oro. We had this little visit when he was just 10 days old. Most babies sleep through these sessions, but not this little guy! Didn’t want to miss a thing. Okay, he may have paused to rest [...] |

Okay, he may have paused to rest his eyes just for a second. It’s a lot of work being 10 days old!
Oh! I’m back!
Aaaannnd…..done.
Baby Tessa – NewbornFebruary 24th, 2011Tweet I honestly never really noticed babies before, until I had one. It was like that part of my brain just didn’t exist, and since having Quinn I’ve become the crazy woman on the street stopping and cooing at strangers’ babies. This new found appreciation for tiny people has also developed into a love for [...] |
I honestly never really noticed babies before, until I had one. It was like that part of my brain just didn’t exist, and since having Quinn I’ve become the crazy woman on the street stopping and cooing at strangers’ babies.
This new found appreciation for tiny people has also developed into a love for photographing them. I especially love capturing the little moments between a brand new family in their first weeks together. Now that I’ve been through it, I realize how incredibly important it is. Especially because I didn’t do it myself. Typical photographer, never gets her photo taken. I was too tired, hadn’t showered, still felt huge….what was I thinking. When you look back on photos of yourself with your brand new baby, you’re not focusing on a hair out of place…you’re mesmerized looking back on a time that seems surreal because it all happened so fast. Then in an instant that little sleeping ball of snuggles is a walking talking member of your family.
Appreciate every moment…which there is plenty of time to do when you’re not sleeping. 
Anyway, this is sweet little Tessa.
