I’ve been photographing families since 2005. I’ve learned a LOT during that time. One big lesson I’ve learned was how to help people to be themselves. How to get real smiles and laughter in front of the camera. You’ve got to create an environment that makes them comfortable. A huge part of that when outdoors is light and temperature! Here are…

I have a quick question that I need your opinion on. I hope you don’t mind! I am asking you this because I want to serve you better and your feedback helps SO much! I recently asked a client and her answer blew my mind. She told me that having wardrobe, hair & makeup was great, but what she loved most was how comfortable I helped…

Here are 3 things that I’m grateful for this week. God, for always watching over me and giving me grace, my adorable family and their need for hugs, and jumpsuits (I basically live in them)! But the biggest thing I’m thankful for today is... YOU! Not a day passes that I don’t give thanks for my community, and for all of you. Today, a client & subscriber sent…

There is something about holding the hands of an infant. Wondering what those hands will create and whose they will hold. Thinking about that brings to life that their lives are unfolding before us. Even now, that potential bursts through every corner of their existence. And if we lean into it, we can see their dreams being awakened in each…

This is Hayley & Daniel. They wanted to capture their first pregnancy in photographs that showed their connection to each other and their baby. Images that were candid and told a story, with beautiful light and energy in them. It was raining that day, but it let off a couple of hours before we began our photoshoot. We started off at the beach and…

The Reflections of Life photo studio is located at 42 Debora Drive in Grimsby, Ontario, Canada. It’s bright, open and newly renovated. This space is used for newborn, maternity, baby and family photoshoots. I also have wardrobe consultations and image reveals by appointment. There are a few words I would use to describe each wonderful…

This was one of those photoshoots that photographers dream about. Everyone was so happy to be there, the kids behaved well, and there was nothing but love shown by everyone the whole time. While mama and baby were getting ready for newborn photos, I started photographing the older siblings while they waited patiently. Then dad jumped…

There is so much beauty in your life. In your delicate pregnant belly and in the love you show to everyone around you. Maybe it rushed through your bedroom door this morning or you held it in your hands or you watched it appear in the sky. Maybe beauty is not in the makeup and flawless appearance, but maybe the beauty is in the gifts that we’ve…

You impact people wherever you go. You leave a legacy in the relationships you have and the love that you pour out. Everything that you do counts. Every smile. Every hug. Every encouraging word. Every cuddle. Invest your love in the lives around you because you’re creating a legacy that goes way beyond you. You impact people. You are a…

Keep dreaming. Close your eyes and get a vision for your life of what you want it to be, what story you want it to tell, what song you want it to sing. Remind your soul of why you’re here. Get to know the answer to the question of why you were made. And every single day, tell that back to yourself. Your life has value. You are on purpose. Dream bigger…

I’m sure you know that feeling, when you look at photographs from when your Mom was little, when your Grandma was first going to school, when your Great-Grandma was being married, and your heart glows? That somehow there is this connection that you feel just in having those pictures with worn-out edges and corners sitting in your palm…
