Sometimes I Wonder

Sometimes I wonder, when you look at me what you see? And when you close your eyes, what it is that you dream about? I wonder what it is that you’re seeing and what is making you smile as you sleep.

My Favourite Thing to Capture in a Session

When I get to work with parents, a family or siblings to capture images of them, the first and my favourite thing to look for is their connection.

Mama, You Are My Lullaby

Sometimes I hear your voice and I find my heartbeat slow down and I think they call that peace. And sometimes I  listen to the sound of your heartbeat thumping in your very chest and it gives me rest.

Your Bright Smile is Contagious

Your smile lights up a room. That joy that bubbles out of you when you find something simply hilarious is contagious. The way your lips turn upwards when you meet someone new is beautiful.

What Makes Your Portrait Experience Here So Different?

When I went to visit Jessica and Peter before their family session they told me a few things that opened my eyes. They loved the time we spent photographing, and the fact that we didn’t rush. Before you arrive at the studio, I’m spending time making it as comfortable as it can be. I’ll often ask you what music your kids love to hear so that I…

Sing And Dance Without A Care In The World

It doesn't matter if you're good, bad, or really bad. Don't do it for anyone except for you. Sing off key and dance like nobody's watching. Sing in the car. Sing in the shower.
