There’s something about being with a family for more than a few hours that hits me right in the heart. They’ve let down their guards and shown me their true essence, which then allows me to show them how truly amazing and unique they are as a family. I always leave feeling invested and that […]

I love doing sessions all year long, but I’d be lying if I said I didn’t have soft spot for fall. Especially here in Alberta, where it can be unpredictable, so you have to savour the orange and yellow foliage every day, because the next day it could be gone. Like this year, when we […]

“The littlest of details of our most regular day.” That was the answer to the question I ask every single client. If you could only have one image from your photo session what would it be? In this one question I can figure out the whole tone of a session. It gives me something to […]

Photographing Saturday mornings at home never gets old. It’s like the whole family has a collective chance to breathe easy and relax after a busy week. It also happens to be one of my favourite times with my own family, so when I’m able to capture it in stills for another family, I already know […]

It’s a dream becoming a reality.” Those are the words that came into my email from Chelsey when she contacted me about a breastfeeding photo session.

File this one under ‘Things you don’t need to worry about for your photo session’. In all the houses I’ve been in, I’ve NEVER walked into one that I considered too small. Well, maybe if you live in one of those trendy new tiny homes (check out this documentary if you haven’t seen a truly tiny […]

Last week I wrote a post about why 6 month baby pictures matter. But maybe you sitting there thinking, “But, Kelly, my baby barely sits, what the heck are we going to do during a session?”. Well, so glad you asked! I’m going to capture the love, and the interactions, and the teeny tiny milestones. We […]

There will never be a more perfect time to honour your imperfect life than now. It’s true. The timing will never feel perfect for a family photo session. That reno won’t be done, your kiddo will be going through a phase of not napping, you want to lose 5 pounds, your house is too small. […]
