While the "golden hour" (the hour before sunset) provides the most flattering, soft, and glowy light — and I will always encourage this session timing, whenever possible — I understand that might not always be possible due to young kiddo bedtimes or your own family's scheduling restrictions.

We can absolutely work around those needs if golden hour is a "no-go". If we must shoot earlier in the day, I will select a sheltered location (like a wooded area) to filter out harsh midday sunlight and ensure you get beautiful photos regardless of the time.

Absolutely! I've photographed dozens of extended families and family reunions over the years. I even wrote a blog post about how special important these sessions are!

Extended family sessions are awesome but they are a bit of a different beast. To help keep things running smoothly, I have a dedicated approach for ensuring everyone is prepared and knows what to expect going into the session.

Feel  free to reach out to me if you'd like to discuss how best to document your large family gathering. I've got you! :)

Your privacy is a top priority, and I completely respect that the decision to share your family’s images is deeply personal.

While I truly love sharing some of my favourite, beautiful images from past sessions to showcase my work as it evolves, I understand that many families prefer to keep their photos private. 

Rest assured, your images will not be shared online unless you are fully comfortable with it. I want you to feel completely at ease with your family's digital footprint, so please don't hesitate to let me know your preferences, and I will honour them.

Please don't worry! I hear this from almost everyone. Feeling a bit awkward in front of the camera is totally normal, and those "wild" moments with your kids often turn out to be my absolute favorite shots.

My approach focuses on connection, not perfection. Just enjoy each other’s company, and I promise we’ll capture something beautiful and authentic.

I’ll provide simple guidance to keep things fun and relaxed. My job is to document your family as you really are, not how you think you "should" look. 

If you like what you see in my portfolio, I promise you'll love your images!
