Real-Life Family Photography


PHOTOGRAPHING ALL THE MOMENTS – THE WILD MOMENTS, THE QUIET MOMENTS AND EVERYTHING IN BETWEEN

Time is fleeting, but the memories don’t have to be.

I’m here for the running feet and the quiet curiosities; the explorers, the adventurers, and the families who aren’t afraid of a little happy noise. Let’s capture the wonder, the awe, and the sun-kissed magic of your family’s current chapter.

If this feels like home to you, keep scrolling.

How it works

Relaxed & Real

Consider me a tag-along friend. No posing, no pressure—just your family being yourselves.

Time to Unfold

Longer documentary sessions are best. This gives everyone time to get comfortable, ensuring the “wonder and awe” come out naturally.

Your Story, Your Pace

We can document a favorite family activity or a simple morning routine. I offer one hour, three hour and full-day collections to fit the scope of your story.

Family Sessions

Whether we are documenting the playful chaos of running feet or the soft, intimate moments of a quiet afternoon, these sessions provide an intentional space for your family’s unique personality and curiosity to take centre stage

The Essential Hour

An intentional hour designed to capture your family’s connection in a beautiful, relaxed setting. This session is the perfect balance of guided portraiture and honest, candid moments.

The Details:

  • Time: 1 Hour Session
  • Location: On-location at your home, the family cottage, or a favorite local spot that holds meaning for you.
  • Delivery: A curated online gallery for easy viewing and sharing, featuring high-resolution digital downloads and a personal print license.

Perfect for:

  • Updated Portraits: Capturing how much the kids have grown since last year.

The “Slice of Life” Session

A deeper dive into your family’s world. This three-hour window allows the “camera jitters” to fade away, leaving room for the honest, unscripted magic of your daily life to unfold.

The Details:

  • Time: 3 Hour Session
  • Location: Primarily in-home or at a meaningful location (like the cottage) where your family can truly relax and engage in a favorite activity.
  • Delivery: An expansive online gallery featuring high-resolution digital downloads and a personal print license.

Perfect for:

  • Authentic Routines: Capturing the “loud and happy house”—from messy pancake breakfasts to backyard play and the quiet curiosities in between.
  • Activity-Based Stories: Documenting a family tradition, a day at the lake, first mornings with newborns or a hobby you all share.
  • Reluctant Subjects: Excellent for children (or partners!) who need a little extra time to feel comfortable and act like themselves around a lens.

Investment: $700

The Day in the Life

The ultimate documentary experience. I spend the full day with you to create a complete visual legacy of your family’s current chapter. This is more than a photo shoot; it is a preserved record of a day you’ll never want to forget.

The Details:

  • Time: Full Day Coverage (Up to 10 Hours)
  • Location: Wherever your day takes you—from the moment the sun hits the breakfast table to the final “squeals of joy” before bedtime.
  • Delivery: Your complete story in a high-resolution digital gallery, plus a complimentary 20-page Linen Mini-Book to begin your family’s physical archive.

Perfect for:

  • Legacy Building: Creating a “time capsule” of this specific age and stage of your children’s lives.
  • Honest Connection: Capturing the full spectrum of family life—the chaos, the adventure, the exhaustion, and the overwhelming love.
  • Sun-Kissed Memories: Ideal for a full day of “play and adventure” at the cottage or a meaningful family travel destination.

Investment: $1,400
