capturing real life moments

with a lifestyle photo session

 

Some of my favorite images are the everyday moments with my own children—playing in water on a hot day, making a mess with art, or happily devouring chocolate and ice cream. Looking back at these photos instantly takes me to those sweet, precious childhood memories, and I’m so grateful I captured them.

A lifestyle session is all about documenting your family naturally and relaxed, right in the comfort of your home—the perfect backdrop for genuine moments. These documentary-style sessions are ideal for newborns or capturing the beautiful chaos of everyday life with your growing family. Whether it’s playing, cuddling, or sharing quiet moments, the focus is on real, heartfelt connections.

Each session lasts around 2–2.5 hours, giving plenty of time for cuddles, precious details, and feeding or settling breaks—perfect opportunities for meaningful photos. Worried about a messy house or little tornadoes running around? Don’t stress! A quick tidy of main areas is all that’s needed, and I’ll adjust as needed to make your space work beautifully.

My priority is capturing the love, laughter, and genuine moments that make your family unique—so you can treasure them for a lifetime. Life moves fast, kids grow up, and moments pass by in a blink. Don’t wait for the “perfect time”—that time is now. Because one day, these photographs will be among the most valuable things you own.

 

Getting in the frame with your loved ones is one of the greatest gifts you can give them.

how it all works...

 

The first step- let's chat

The easiest way to see if I’m the right photographer for your family is with a quick phone call. I’ve streamlined this process to make it simple and stress-free, and I can answer all your questions in about 15 minutes. SCHEDULE A 15 MIN PHONE CALL HERE.

Plan your session

We’ll plan your session together—discussing photo style, family activities, clothing, the type of light, and the mood we want to capture—so your session feels personal, relaxed, and fun!

Time for the fun part!

Have your photo session

This is a special, fun experience your kids will remember fondly. While you enjoy time together, I’ll capture authentic moments and genuine connections, keeping it natural and stress-free, and only prompting when needed to create a variety of beautiful images.

Choose your collection.

About three weeks after your session, I’ll send you a private link to preview all your fully edited images—hooray! Once you’ve seen everything, you’ll be ready to choose your collection. Each option comes with a virtual stack of digital images and a print credit, so your favourite photos can be displayed where they belong—in your home, to enjoy every day.

 

Pricing & collections

Shopping for art can be tricky—prices are all over the place, and photography is no different. It’s not really an apples-to-apples comparison.

My session fee is $250, with collections starting from $610. While I may not be the cheapest in the area, I focus on providing true value. My process is designed to give you exactly what you’re looking for—whether that’s lots of guidance or a light touch—so you’ll have beautiful images and prints to enjoy for years to come.

Heirloom & Keepsake Options

 

Every photography collection includes store credit because I believe your memories deserve more than just a digital life. There’s something truly special about holding your images in your hands—flipping through an album with loved ones, reliving the laughter, and sharing the stories.

 

In my store, you’ll find a thoughtfully curated range of beautiful, tangible pieces—from loose and matted prints to luxe calendars, greeting cards, photo boxes, and stunning wall art. There’s something to suit every space and style.

You’ll be able to preview your images in frames, albums, and wall layouts, with the option to fine-tune details. I’m always here to help, and I personally review every order before it’s sent to the professional labs.

To make it even easier, I’ll create a custom album design for you—so if you’d like to use your credit toward an album, you’ll see how beautifully your story comes to life in print. Let’s bring your memories off the screen and into your home, where they truly belong.

FIRST YEAR collection

newborn, 6 months, & one year photography package

 

The first year of your baby’s life is filled with incredible milestones, and it all goes by so quickly. With The First Year Collection, you can beautifully document these three stages—from holding your swaddled newborn to their giggles and playfulness at six months, and those precious first steps and growing connections as they turn one.

Planning ahead ensures these special moments are captured forever. After each session, you’ll receive a credit to use toward prints and products—or you can save it to create a stunning album that tells the full story of your baby’s first year. Let’s create something truly special that you’ll cherish for years to come.

MATERNITY PHOTO SESSION

CELEBRATING LIFE...

 

A maternity portrait is a beautiful way to celebrate and remember this special time in your life. Whether it’s capturing the joy of your first baby bump or a heartfelt moment with your partner and children, these images become cherished keepsakes for years to come.

The ideal time for a maternity session is between 32–36 weeks, when your bump has a lovely shape and you’re still feeling comfortable. Sessions can take place in the comfort of your home, outdoors in nature, or at a location that holds special meaning to you.
