newborn photographer who helps you savour babe's first days so they don't get lost in a haze of sleep-deprivation
I so clearly remember the moment each of my sweet children were laid on my chest and I looked into their tiny face for the first time and thought I would explode with love, despite what they had just put me through. It’s that hope-filled, “I would do anything for you and all you do is poop and cry” love that I absolutely adore capturing.
I also remember well waking up from a stupor of sleep-deprivation, night feeds and dirty diapers when my baby was about 5 months old and thinking... how did she get SO BIG?!
As a mom of two trained in photojournalism, I help new parents preserve these early memories because I know how quickly they pass. And I come to your home to do it, so you don't have to rush to get everyone dressed up and out of the house while you're one week post-partum only to arrive and find baby has pooped through the onesie you picked.
Sound amazing?! let's chat! >>

"Photography is a way of feeling, of touching, of loving. Whatever you have caught on film is captured forever... it remembers little things long after you have forgotten everything."

From that moment of sheer excitement when the pregnancy test comes back positive, the first time you hold your baby in your arms and your heart almost explodes. Motherhood is an amazing adventure. I would be thrilled to document this amazing next season for you! Just send me an email an we can start the process!
It's (almost) never too early to book! The best time to reserve your date on my calendar is as soon as you know your due date. I'll write it in my calendar and make sure I have some space around the date for your session! Once your contract is signed and your retainer sent, I'm yours.
They're never required, but always a great option to add on to your newborn package, and a super fun way to celebrate the anticipation that comes with waiting for baby!
Due dates are really just estimates. Babe will show up when he or she decides! Just shoot me an email and text when you're announcing baby's birth to your friends and family and we can figure out a time that works for our session!
It's here! The day we've been waiting for! Shower for probably the first time since you've given birth, throw on some makeup and a cute outfit and I'll show up at your home ready to capture the beauty in your amazing new reality.
I can hardly wait to show you all the amazing photos from your session, so I'll throw a few sneak peeks your way within a day or two. Within 3 weeks you'll receive a full gallery, and we can start designing your album!

I do! Your photos are like personalized art. They aren't meant to be stored on a computer where no one looks at them, but to be displayed in your living room, made into an album for your coffee table, or put on a Christmas card to send to friends and family. Because I know how busy life gets, you can either order these through me as add-ons to your package, or you can do it online, straight from your gallery with the click of a button.
Do you offer any prints, canvases, albums or cards?
I absolutely do! In fact, I have a full blog post about what YOU can do to make sure your photos turn out perfectly (you can find it here). I also will provide styling tips and outfit suggestions prior to our session should you like them!
Do you offer help with styling for my session?
Yes I do! Traditional payments are 50% due at the time of booking (within a week) and 50% due 2 weeks before your wedding date. But, if it's easier for you, I can split payments in three or four equal parts. Just let me know what you prefer, and we can make it work!
Do you offer a payment plan?
have questions? Get answers.
What if I want a Maternity session as well?
Maternity sessions are so much fun and are such a great chance for us to get to know each other better and celebrate this beautiful season of waiting. I highly recommend them, and for that reason, maternity sessions are discounted when you book a newborn session as well!
what if I don't live in vancouver?
Travelling is my first love, and I'm thrilled to do it for your session! Whether it's the Island, the Okanagan, or even further afield, I want to be there to capture your day. However, for locations more than 2 hours outside Vancouver there will be a travel and lodging fee if applicable.
Send it over! YAY! >
this is it my friend, let's get to chatting about capturing your real memories
I'm excited, are you excited?
