Documentary Family Photography
Life As It Happens — So You Can Relive It
The bedtime stories, messy mornings, quiet snuggles…
Hold onto the little moments you’ll never get back.
You’re the keeper of the memories — the bedtime stories, the messy mornings, the way your child fits just so on your hip.
You don’t want a few posed photos. You want this season, exactly as it feels, captured before it slips away.
Why This Matters
“This isn’t just about getting photos—it’s about remembering how it felt.
The quiet moments, the chaos, the connection.
These are the stories your children will carry with them.”
This isn’t just about photos—it’s about how it felt to be there. The quiet moments, the messy chaos, the little connections that pass too quickly.
These are the stories your children will carry with them, and I can help you hold onto them.
Each session is a commissioned work of art—crafted to reflect your family’s real life, exactly as it is right now.
With many years of experience and recognition in documentary family photography, my work has been honoured by international competitions celebrating authentic, emotional storytelling, including the National Association of Professional Child Photographers (NAPCP), Fearless Family Photographers, and Inspiration Photographers, and has also been recognized here at home by the Professional Photographers of Canada PPOC).
The booking fee is $600, and it’s the first step in creating a meaningful, lasting record of your family’s life.
It includes:
✔ A personalized pre-session consultation to understand your family, your routines, and what makes this season special
✔ A documentary-style session in your home or a place your family loves, capturing real life exactly as it is
✔ A professional design consultation to turn your photographs into artwork that lives in your home and your family’s memory
I take on only a few families each month to ensure every session gets the time, heart, and creative energy it deserves. That means availability is limited, and the best time for your family may be sooner than you think.
The Investment in Your Family’s Story
These photographs aren’t just for today—they’re for years from now, when the details start to blur and you want to remember exactly how it felt.
Together, we’ll create heirloom-quality albums, custom-framed prints, and wall galleries that turn your family’s real life into artwork you’ll see and treasure every day.
Every piece is thoughtfully designed to endure for generations—so your children, and their children, can hold onto these moments long after they’ve passed.
All artwork and digital images are purchased separately. Selections are made after you’ve seen your photographs, so you can make choices that truly reflect your family and your home.
The Legacy You’ll Build
Most families choose to create custom wall art, handcrafted albums, or both—pieces that become part of their home and their everyday life.
I work with the world’s top professional labs to craft heirloom-quality artwork, built to last for generations. Every photograph, every print, every album is designed with care so that it not only captures your life now but becomes part of your family story for years to come.
What you create is entirely up to you—wall galleries, albums, or a combination—but it’s never about numbers. It’s about creating something meaningful, something your children will see every day, and something that will spark stories, laughter, and memories for years to come.
Your session won’t be rushed or one-size-fits-all. It will be slow, intentional, and rooted in what matters most to you right now.
This is personal.
This is your story.
This is your legacy—handcrafted, emotional, real.
Bringing Your Family’s Story to Life
After your session, we’ll have a personal design consultation to explore how your photographs can live in your home.
You’ll have the chance to choose from:
✔ Custom Wall Art — framed prints, canvas, or professional acrylic pieces that transform your favorite images into daily reminders of love and connection
✔ Heirloom Albums — handcrafted books designed to be opened again and again, telling the story of this season of life with all its joy, laughter, and messy beauty
✔ Treasure Boxes — a collection of fine art, matted prints, perfect for sharing with family or keeping as a tangible record of this moment in time
Every piece is carefully curated to suit your home, your style, and your family, so your memories live not just on screens, but in your everyday life.
“This is the album you’ll pass down. The one they’ll pull out one day and say, ‘This is what life felt like with Mom.’”
Selections are made after your session, so you see your photographs first and can choose the pieces that truly reflect your family’s story.
These photographs aren’t just for today. They’re for years from now, when the details start to blur and you want to remember exactly how it felt.
Your legacy, handcrafted.
