I first met this sweet mama at a playground in our neighbourhood while our kids were running around and making instant friends. We started chatting, and within minutes it felt like we had known each other longer than just a quick playground introduction. She is warm, genuine, and such an inspiring young business owner. I love meeting other women building something of their own while also juggling motherhood.

Some photo sessions feel like a little adventure, and this one definitely did.

What was originally planned as a cozy fall shoot in Banff turned into a last-minute pivot because of the unpredictable mountain weather. A storm was rolling in fast, so we made the call to move the session to Calgary for safer and hopefully calmer conditions. Spoiler: the weather still had big plans for us.

Some families just leave me smiling long after the session is over, and this crew was exactly that. They are a full-on hockey family, and somehow, despite their insanely busy schedule, they still managed to squeeze in a fall photo session with me. I felt lucky to catch them between practices and games.

The boys were listening to a sports game during the shoot, and it made me laugh in the best way. It was the most “sports family” thing I have ever seen!

I had the loveliest family session at Fish Creek Park during the dreamiest golden hour. The light settled over the tall grass, turning everything soft and warm, and this crew brought so much energy that it felt like the park lit up even more.

This fall I had the sweetest session with a wonderful family at Fish Creek Park. They arrived with two energetic little ones, their lovable dog, and that familiar look parents get when the day has been a whirlwind. They had run late and were feeling stressed, but the moment we stepped onto the paths surrounded by tall grass and soft evening light, everything began to unwind. As a parent of two myself I always feel for families in this stage of life, but they absolutely smashed it!

I had the absolute pleasure of photographing long-time family friends at Confederation Park in Calgary during the early days of autumn. The leaves were just starting to turn, painting the park in shades of gold and amber, and the crisp air added a fresh energy to the session.

A little while ago, I photographed this lovely family’s maternity session at Reader Rock Garden. It was a peaceful evening filled with anticipation as they prepared to welcome their second baby. Seeing them again at Carburn Park, now as a family of four, felt like the most beautiful continuation of their story.

Golden hour was truly showing off for us. The warm light settled softly over the pathways, the river glowed in the background, and the tall grasses caught every bit of that evening shimmer. It was one of those sessions where everything aligned. The location, the light, and the gentle sweetness that comes with a family welcoming a new little one all came together so naturally.

Late summer mornings in Calgary are pure magic. Warm, golden light, soft breezes, and quiet trails that invite you to linger outdoors. There’s no better place to enjoy it than Fish Creek Park, where winding paths, hidden nooks, and open spaces make every visit feel like a little adventure. And it’s extra fun when you’re adventuring with your sibling!

This past summer I had the joy of photographing the sweetest family who recently moved to Calgary from Ukraine. We met downtown and instantly connected. They carried such a gentle warmth and kindness, and it was easy to see how much love they share as a family.
