Sharing just a few of the thousands of images I took on our recent family adventure through Iceland. What a dream. I had dreamed of visiting Iceland for the past 15 years, and this summer it was finally our turn to experience one of the most beautiful place I've ever seen. Where every bend in the road feels like stepping into a different world. We went into the trip with zero expectations about how much we'd see or how far we could push it with our two boys. Instead, we let them lead the adventure. Every day looked a little different depending on their energy, interests, and curiosity. We spent a lot of time in the famous Iceland pools and enjoying the bouncy pillows they have everywhere.

The session of my dreams. I have been dreaming of photographing a potter for years now. I met this lovely soul through the instagram world and we immediately hit if off. We share a mutual love of highland cows (I got mine from her!!!), travelling to rad places, photographing what feeds our happiness and making every new hobby our entire personality .

Cass’s love for pottery has grown into something so beautiful and inspiring. I was so thankful when she invited me into her space to document the beautiful mess of creating pottery. And honestly, what a compliment coming from such a talented photographer herself.

This past April, I hosted Spring Mini Sessions in my studio and honestly… they’re easily some of my favourite sessions of the entire year. There’s just something about them. The soft light, the connection, the way everything feels so simple and beautiful. These sessions always end up feeling effortless in the best way. A huge thank you to Bonavista Flowers for absolutely bringing my vision to life. They completely nailed the florals and transformed the studio into the dreamiest space. And to all the incredible families who stepped into my studio this spring, thank you.

This was such a rad branding session. The second Chantel shared her vision with me, I knew this shoot was going to be good. Permanent jewelry… but make it a little extra. I am fully here for these vibes and Chantel absolutely nailed every detail. From the styling to the energy of this session, everything just came together so effortlessly. Dainty Affair is doing permanent jewelry in a way that feels fun, elevated and cool as hell and I already know I’m going to be fully decked out soon.

A real life angel on earth, I swear. We met a few years ago over a wedding meal tucked in a back room of a venue and I’ve been thankful ever since. There’s a calm confidence about her where nothing feels forced, nothing is loud. Just grounded, steady, and completely herself. She’s the kind of person who feels like light. When Nicole reached out to do a personal branding session, I knew we would create all sorts of wonderfulness and we did just that. I love how soft, warm and inviting these images are.

West Country Mills is one of those places. A locally owned, Alberta family-run farm that not only grows their grain but mills it themselves, right on their land. From field to flour, every step is done with love, care, and a whole lot of pride. When West Country Mills reached out to me, I was so dang grateful. This is the kind of product I’ve been wanting to work with for years, something that just feels like me. Baking, rural routes, good people. The kind of people you don’t think twice about supporting. Their products are incredible but it’s the people behind it all that make it truly meaningful.

I love photographing this little fam so much, and I’m so grateful this isn’t the first time I’ve had them in front of my camera. This time, mom just wanted photos with her babies and there’s something really special about that. We kept it simple in the studio. Natural light, neutral tones, and letting the connection lead the way. Honestly, those are always my favourite sessions, the ones that don’t feel forced, just lived in. There’s something really special about documenting motherhood like this. Not perfectly posed, but real. The way it actually feels.

Some sessions carry a little more weight. All equally as important though. This lovely family has been facing the challenges of ALS, yet what filled the room most was their love for one another. Their outlook and positivity is something I really admire. Regardless of life’s challenges, their love continues to outshine everything else. I recognize photography is a gift, and from day one my goal has been to give something meaningful back to the people in front of my camera. The business side has always come second to the people, the stories, and the moments that deserve to be remembered.

One of my favourite things about lifestyle newborn sessions is that they take place in the comfort of your own home. There is something incredibly special about documenting those early days right where your family is settling into this new chapter together. Best part? You don’t have to pack up the family and hit the road.

Some sessions feel extra special, and this one is definitely one of them. Rhean + Scott are dear friends of mine, and getting to document their family over the years has been such a meaningful part of my work. I first photographed Rhean and Scott during their engagement session, then their wedding day, and now I have the joy of capturing their family as it grows with these adorable little boys.

I recently had the opportunity to photograph Adrienne for an updated set of branding headshots for her psychology practice. Branding sessions like this are always so much fun because they allow professionals to show a bit more personality while still creating polished, professional images for their business. Adrienne wanted images that felt warm, approachable and authentic - something that would help potential clients feel comfortable before stepping into her office.

Meeting sweet Sully and his family was such a joy. Walking into their home felt like stepping into a dream—beautiful natural light and thoughtful details that made the space feel so warm and inviting. Sully’s mom, Miranda (yes, another Miranda—how cool is that?), and I hit it off instantly at her maternity session. I love when families bring their personality into their newborn session, and this one had so many little details that made it special—from the dreamy older brother bond to the sweetest moments between Sully and the family pup.

Photography for Kelly Kustom Homes is always such a rewarding experience. Their homes are thoughtfully designed, beautifully built, and filled with the kind of details that make a house truly feel like home. These showhome perfectly reflects their commitment to craftsmanship, timeless design, and creating spaces meant to be lived in and loved for years to come. It was an honour to document the spaces where function meets beauty.

One of the most common questions I receive before a session is: “What should we wear?” Choosing outfits for family photos can feel overwhelming, but it really doesn’t have to be. The goal is not to look perfectly styled — it’s simply to look like yourselves while keeping things visually cohesive. Here are a few simple tips that help families look great in photos without overthinking it.

This family adventure session was the perfect reminder that the best family photos happen when everyone simply leans into the moment together. With space to explore, laugh, and just be themselves, this session was filled with movement, connection, and genuine joy. I love photographing families this way. They picked the location that meant a lot to their family with the people closest to them.

There are parts of my life that feel like “before” and “after.” Before I lost my mom. And everything that has come since. I had been a photographer for years before she died. I understood light. Composition. Emotion. I knew how to capture connection. But grief did something to me that no workshop, no mentorship, no fourteen years behind a camera ever could. It changed what I look for. When you lose someone you love, you start to understand time differently.

This downtown lifestyle newborn session was filled with soft light, quiet cuddles, and that beautiful in-between season where everything feels brand new. Baby Mile’s was sleepy and enjoying all the cuddles during this newborn session. I love photographing families in their own space, their homes but this one felt unique. I love that they wanted to switch things up and do this super cool Calgary city scape location. We focused on connection, love, and the tiny details you never want to forget.

Ahhhh. I am so excited to finally share this winter engagement session. I absolutely love photographing outdoor winter sessions… I just don’t do nearly enough of them. Thank you, Canadian winters. Jill and I met at Rumbl Boxing Studio when she was teaching a class. I started boxing last year and instantly fell in love with her classes, her energy is so upbeat, positive, and contagious.
