I have a lot of sessions from the past year I have yet to blog (safe to say blogging is not my forté) but this one, shot just over a year ago seemed like the perfect one to start with. Merry Christmas everyone! Interested in an at home family session? Read more about how I […]

In the midst of Instagram and Pinterest perfection we somehow have this idea that everything should be beautiful. Families perched on a hill top with mountains in the background, perfectly styled wardrobes that coordinate with the long grasses surrounding them… you know, we’ve all seen and admired those images but while getting wrapped up in […]

I do love fall… the colours, the leaves, the crisp air, all of it but I have to admit, I was a bit excited when this mom asked for a more urban session in Calgary this fall.

Years ago (and when I say years I mean like 10 or so) I was asked to photograph a wedding. At the time I hadn’t even considered shooting weddings but the request that came through seemed so genuine and sweet I decided to do it. I did their engagement shoot and then the wedding. Fast […]

We were back in Ontario for a couple of weeks this summer and I was able to book a few sessions. This was one of them. Picture this… I drive out to a little community just outside of where I grew up. I’ve photographed this family in the past but it has been years and […]

I’ve been photographing this family since their first was born. Now a family of five, I got to meet little Alice Bird just weeks ago ♥️.  

As part of my BabyLove package, I see babies anywhere from two to four times during that first year. They change so much month to month, it’s a great way to capture them. And I know I’ve mentioned it before but that 6-8 month stage has got to be my absolute favourite and just a simple, […]

After a bit of a social media hiatus, I’m back! Hope everyone had a great holiday and I’m looking forward to getting 2018 started. I tried choosing just a few favourite images from the past year to post but had a hard time so here’s a few more than originally intended, along with a huge […]

COME ON now!
Let's be
PEN-PALS.
