  • I specialize in lifestyle and event photography, including family sessions, milestone celebrations, baby showers, birthdays, and intimate gatherings. Each session is thoughtfully captured to reflect genuine connection and emotion.

  • I do, but I shoot exclusively for Purple Tree Photography. You can check out their site here, if interested you can contact them here and ask for my availability for your special day!

  • I love connecting with my clients to create a truly personal experience. During our session, I’ll guide you with easy prompts and natural posing to encourage authentic moments and real emotion. My goal is to capture what feels true to you, while highlighting you in the most flattering and effortless way.

    While my approach is professional, it’s also relaxed and approachable. I take the time to get to know you and your family, creating an environment where you can feel comfortable, confident, and fully present. Every session is designed to feel positive, easy, and genuinely enjoyable.

  • You can reach out to me via my contact page or email. I aim to respond quickly - usually within one business day.

  • I did! I went to Humber College and completed my Creative Photography Diploma with Honours.

  • Neutrals and textures are always a great choice. Ultimately, whatever lets you feel most comfortable and confident wins.

  • Showing up 15 minutes early for your session is a huge bonus. This allows for traffic delays, finding parking and changing (if need be). If I am coming to your home, I am always 15 minutes early! Steaming or ironing clothing before the shoot is a great idea. A little lint rolling doesn’t hurt either!

  • Travel time throughout the day is including when booking. For example, if your booking is for three hours, any travel time between locations is included within those three hours.

  • The best time of day is in the evening when the sun is lower in the sky. Generally, 2 hours before sunset is best.

  • Has your child tried cake or a cupcake before? I would recommend they try cake or a cupcake before their cake smash session if they tend to be picky with food. Sometimes they don’t know what is in front of them, and they either don’t want to try it or aren’t interested. If they’ve tried it before and like it, there is a better chance they will know what is in front of them and want to dig in!

  • I like to think that my style is modern, organic and elegant. While there is always some posing, I always work to capture every moment as naturally as possible. Capturing authentic moments is my ultimate goal!

  • I graduated from my program in 2010 and jumped right in. I started out as a photographer's assistant and worked primarily within the commercial industry for about 2 years, after which I started taking on my own work photographing portraits, products, and corporate events. It wasn't until 2014 that I started working as a second wedding photographer, and that's when I truly discovered my love for special event photography.

  • It’s best to book at least 4-6 weeks in advance, especially for weekends and popular dates. For large events or peak seasons, earlier booking is highly recommended to secure your spot.

  • Teasers are provided within one week after your event date. Final galleries are typically delivered within 4–6 weeks. You’ll receive a beautifully curated online gallery where you can download and share your images from the platform Pixieset.

  • Yes, a non-refundable retainer of 25% along with a signed agreement is required to secure your booking. The remaining balance is due on your session or event date.

  • Absolutely. While I focus on candid, storytelling imagery, I welcome any must-have moments or details you’d like captured. Mood boards or inspiration shots are welcome.

  • Life happens! I offer flexible rescheduling for sessions with reasonable notice. Weather-related reschedules are always accommodated.

  • I always recommend you wear something that makes you feel comfortable and confident. A steamer and lint roller can also be your best friends. This step can make a huge difference in the final product.
