Vancouver Family Photographer blog

Shop Local Vancouver has been a movement for many years now. Historically, people purchased locally made items out of necessity. Eventually, companies discovered it was cheaper to outsource manufacturing and by doing so, they could keep costs down. Unfortunately, those costs they were cutting were usually people’s wages. In the race to the lowest price, […]

Shop Local Vancouver for Kids

The weather is getting warmer, the days are getting longer and the flowers are starting to bloom. Spring is almost here! And it brings with it one of the best seasons for family photography sessions! There are so many reasons Spring is one of my favourite times for family sessions, and while I’ll share all […]

What to wear to your Spring Photoshoot

There is something special about in-home family photography sessions. Over the years of capturing different seasons for many families, I’ve developed a few favourites. While there’s nothing as stunning as a fall golden hour session in the mountains or by the water, there’s something about snuggly in-home family photography sessions that make them my favourite. […]

Why I Love In-Home Family Photography

I’m just going to come out and say it. No one is really ready to welcome their child. It doesn’t matter how much reading you’ve done or what you’ve bought or how much time you’ve spent around babies. Nothing prepares you for the life-altering moment of becoming a mother. But, that doesn’t mean you can’t […]

What you need for your Newborn Baby

I’m going to be straight up honest here. I love shopping. Particularly for my kids. I honestly get more excited shopping for them then for myself these days. Seriously, kids have way cooler things than adults do. In the 4.5 years since I became a mom, I’ve spent a lot of time shopping, and have […]

Vancouver Baby Stores: My Go-to Shops

At the beginning of 2021, I may have made a few too many resolutions. One of my favourites though, has been the 365 Challenge. I saw this in a photographer’s Facebook group – the idea of committing to take one photo every day for the whole year. On top of being a really creative way […]

365 Challenge: Photographing each day

The number one reason clients pick me for their family photography session is my natural style. Families desperately want images of their children’s authentic smiles – of real happy faces and candid interactions. But when we sit a kid in front of a camera and say “smile” they either don’t, or their smile is unnatural […]

Family Photography: Why kids should misbehave

It’s been a long last year. If your kids are like mine, they’ve probably watched every Paw Patrol episode two or three times by now. While the T.V. can be helpful when we’re all stuck at home together with nothing to do, sometimes it’s just too much. Too much screen time generally leads to my […]

Whether you’re pregnant, you’re brand new at this, or you’ve been a mom for decades, you deserve a good pampering. Being a mom is hard work. Every once in a while, we just need a day off to relax. That’s why I decided to put together a list of spas in North Vancouver. Pick your […]

Spas in North Vancouver, BC

Family photos are priceless. These days go by so quickly, and before we know it, our kids are grown up and don’t want to hug us in public. I personally hire a professional to take photos of my family each year (because I’d like SOME photos with me in them). I always have the best […]
