My Style

I have a casual, more documentary style of photography. I enjoy capturing the special moments between families, which are most likely the expressions that you see most in one another every day. You will find me talking to you and your family a lot, with special attention in engaging your children in the moment.

I gravitate towards the natural posing that families do, but may offer posing suggestions as needed, in order to benefit the final look of your portraits. Also, attitude is everything. A grumpy disposition, whether a child’s or a parent’s, can show up in your final images, so I ask that you come to your session with an open mind, keeping in mind that you are creating precious memories that you will cherish for decades to come.

Some Tips

Please feed your baby before we get started so that he or she has a full tummy. Also, if you'd like shots of your baby undressed, please undress him/her and loosen diaper, then wrap your baby in a blanket, and feed him/her. Weather permitting, of course. Otherwise, your baby may get upset at being undressed when they were so cozy. I do like to photograph a newborn mostly in little to no clothes, but feel free to bring an outfit that you may want him or her in. Please note that many clothing changes may make your little one upset, so it is best to do birthday suit shots and possibly one outfit.

Please know that there is no rush with a newborn session. I like to give special attention to each client, especially newborn sessions. Please know that I do not mind waiting for you to nurse or change baby, or taking a break to soothe your baby.

When doing the poses where the baby is undressed, it is normal (and okay!) for him or her to "relieve" him or herself on any blankets or wraps that I provide... or anywhere else. I can assure you this happens all the time and I am not upset or offended. Please just have baby wipes, extra diapers and a towel handy. After each newborn session I am sure to launder any items the baby comes in contact with. This is included in the session fee for a newborn session.

Playing soft music or white noise can help bring a peaceful environment; so feel free to do so if you wish.

Lastly, please prepare a list of “must haves” images (close-ups with feet and hands, with someone, etc.)

portrait agreement & model release

All images are captured in a raw colour format, this means even when the shoot is over, the image-making process is not finished. My job at that point is to discard the test shots and any images that are not up to my standards and select the real pieces of art that all the other shots helped create. I take those images and spend a great deal of time carefully processing them individually to tone the colour, smooth any imperfections, and produce heirloom pieces of art which are presented in your image gallery. For these reasons, the test shots and any other images not included in the image gallery are not available for viewing.

2. No other cameras (including cell phones) other than the official photographer’s are to be used during the session.
