This blog was born out of a passion for three things: photography, architecture, and most importantly, Winnipeg. I hope that the photos presented here depict a Winnipeg that often goes unseen and unnoticed; a multi-layered, architecturally rich city that is more than just the snow and mosquitoes for which it is (sadly) most well-known.
Prints are now available through the print-on-demand website imagekind.com. Click the Purchase Prints link at the top to check it out. Many prints will be added over the next while, so check back often. Additionally, if you don't see the prints you're interested in, let me know and I will make them available as soon as possible.
Prints are available in many different paper stocks. I recommend Premium Photo Glossy (for glossy) or Somerset Velvet Fine Art (for matte).
Special thanks goes to the University of Manitoba's Winnipeg Building Index (wbi.lib.umanitoba.ca/WinnipegBuildings), my regular source for building names and completion dates (which appear in brackets).

I live in the Chicago area and I must say that a city of almost 700,000 people in the middle of nowhere, with even more godawful weather than what I have to endure, is quite fascinating. I will be visiting your wonderful city sometime in 2009. I really am looking forward to it, thanks in part to your great photography.
Bring a parka and a balaklava.
Amazing blog for an amazing city.. if only more people would see that!
The pictures are beautiful, looking forward to seeing more.. you bring beauty to people who live here, and it's nice to see Winnipeg again.
I love this site and proud to say that I'm from Winnipeg. Beautiful work Bryan.
I just found your website and having lived in Winnipeg my entire life I have to say that your shots have brought out a different side of Winnipeg that I've never noticed before. Really amazing photos! (I'm actually quite envious, I only wish I could be that good)
I love this site!
I once met a cab driver in Victoria who was originally from Somalia, and he told me about how he spent his very first night on Canadian soil, in Winnipeg, on a frigid January day.
He asked his friend "Is this a Muslim city?" His friend responded "why would you say that?", and he replied: "Well, everyone here is completely covered from head to toe except for their eyes!"
Man, you gotta love that...
I grew up in Wpg and now live in Edmonton...I love this site and your beautiful photography! It's amazing. At least Wpg isn't ashamed of it's old architecture the way Edmonton is...
Impressive site. I have deep love for my hometown of Winnipeg, even though growing up I looked forward to moving away as quickly as possible (and now live in Vancouver). These images truly capture the beauty, the mood and the feel of life in the Manitoba capital.
