Why is it that when our children are young we capture their every minute. We want to record everything they do. Every cute expression, all the new things they learn, all of their firsts, their friends, their toys. I have albums full of our boys when they were young but something happens as they grow […]

One of the best things about my job is the people I meet. People who allow me into their homes, their lives and let me tell their story. This family travelled from New York so we had been in touch for some time before the session and what a treat it was to finally meet […]

As an only child I get such a kick out of spending time with big families. So much happening, so many personalities and so much fun! This was my second time with this family (here’s the newborn session that started it) and I loved it as much as he first. Five girls and that little one… she […]

I’ve spent a bit of time this week going through old movies and photos of when my boys were young… photos and videos I haven’t looked at in years. One of my favourite families just had a second child. I photographed their first son as a newborn, at 6 months and again at one year and […]

This was my third shoot with this family (the final one of their Baby love package) and just like the first two, it was a blast. It was the winter version of this session – post baby (in fact that baby is now one). Backyard fire, marshmallows, snowball fights and hot chocolate… what could be better?

This little sweetheart is almost one and this session marked the last of her Baby Love sessions. Each year when I look back on the amazing families I’ve met and had the chance to photograph this family is top of mind. This was our seventh session together… it has been such an incredible treat watching their two […]

I consider myself extremely lucky to do what I do for a living. It’s something I love, something I’m passionate about and allows me to connect with people I otherwise likely wouldn’t have the chance to meet. Families I photograph often become friends, I watch their kids grow, get a peek inside their life at home… […]

Not sure what this little sweetie is going to do over the winter… she sure does love her peaches!

Kind of bittersweet when my Baby Love babies reach that one year point. Third and final shoot of his package. It has been a pleasure watching you grow Harrison!  xo

The weather in Calgary has been a bit wild this past month and this day was no exception. The rain held off for the morning but just as we arrived at the ceremony site the sky got dark and the thunder started. Plans changed quickly but so glad we were given a good part of the day […]

COME ON now!
Let's be
