My goal

 

Bright imagery

Real connection

Moments that feel like you

 

As a photographer of all types of love and capturing all moments of life, I strive to create a comfortable space above all. I want you to come to your session, confident and excited.


I use a mix of posing and prompting to encourage natural interactions while also aiming to get those in between moments.


I am not a photographer of perfection, I am a photographer of moments.

FAQ

Will you give me guidance on posing and planning my session?

Absolutely! As a photographer and adventure seeker, I know lots of beautiful locations with the best lighting and fun obstacles! If you have location requests, I am all ears! Based on the session you choose, I can help with wardrobe choices and you will have access to my few client dresses in various sizes. Something to keep in mind, less patterns for less distracting focus.

I have never been in front of the camera, how will you make me comfortable?

That is perfectly okay! When you are in front of the camera, it can be a little intimidating at first. I like to create my best work with movement. Fun prompts, or activities help bring out those natural smiles and shake off the nerves. So don't focus too much on forcing those smiles, and instead enjoy the experience you are creating. To help make your first experience more natural, book a creative mini session with me first! You can find more information on this session under "investment".

FAQ

How will I receive my images?

You will receive an online gallery link with all your photos within 15 days (sometimes less depending on my gallery intake). You will then choose your favorites based on the package you purchased plus any additional images. I take those favorites and un-watermark them for your finished gallery. You can download the whole gallery for sharing, or individuals for best printing quality. With certain packages, you will also receive a personalized USB either delivered or shipped to treasure!

How many photos will I recieve?

It does depend on the package you choose. All sessions include up from 10 edited, high resolution images and more. I am very generous in my photo-taking, I go over the minimum amount guaranteed and you are given the option to purchase those extras in bundles or individually. You will receive a full gallery of proofing images that you will choose through and decide on your favorite images to include in your final package.

FAQ

Do you travel for sessions?

I spend many weekends exploring all spots on the island within distance. I know the Cowichan Valley very well and have spots that fit almost all vibes of an adventurous session. There is no travel fee when we plan for a location within the Cowichan Valley. I do have a travel fee when I leave the Cowichan Valley, such as beyond Mill bay and beyond Chemainus. My average travel charge is $0.58/km from a central point in Duncan. All travel fees are waived if you book a wedding package out of the Cowichan Valley and request an engagement session out of the Cowichan Valley as well.

Do you provide any props or outfits?

I love creating sessions that are a little more stylized! I provide a client closet for women and children in various sizes. I have a selection of long flowing gowns fit for families, maternity, or couples sessions. Along with clothing, I have a wide variety of props I own for packing a picnic, chairs and benches for portraits,  and fun themed items. Let's create a stylized session together, ask me what I have to provide!

FAQ

Do you travel, and are your travel fees included in your packages

There is no travel fee if your wedding is located in the Cowichan Valley. I do have a travel fee when I leave the Cowichan Valley, such as beyond Mill bay and beyond Chemainus on Vancouver Island. My average travel charge is $0.58/km from a central point in Duncan. All travel fees are waived if you book a wedding package out of the Cowichan Valley and request an engagement session out of the Cowichan Valley as well. I am broadening my traveling  so if you wish to have me, we can discuss a custom package that waives all travel fees.

Do you shoot with flash?

 

 

Yes, I know my flash gear well in unlit locations. However, I utilize the natural light more often and much prefer it. I avoid being the one in your face with the bright light while your enjoying the moment.

 

What is your wedding day approach?

 

 

My approach to documenting your wedding day is very natural and authentic. Often you will find me sneaking around almost unseen capturing moments in a more documentary style.  During formal portraits I help guide you into beautiful poses without telling you exactly where to place your arm or leg, less stiff and awkward. My work is more storytelling than right in your face "getting the shot"

Do you have a second photographer or assistant?

 

I do have the option to add on an additional photographer to any wedding package. I have worked with reputable photographers  that I would trust to document your day along side. Afterwards your gallery will be created in solely my editing style. Using a second photographer is helpful when you choose to get ready in separate locations further than 15 minutes apart.

When will I receive my wedding gallery?

 

48 hours after your glorious day you can expect a small collection of sneak peek images so you don't need to wait so long to relive the magic. Your gallery is delivered within 6-10 weeks, carefully edited and retouched so it is ready to treasure forever. Options to add onto your wedding package would be prints, canvases, table books, and memory boxes with USB. With a purchase of a Diamond package, your memory box is complimentary and created with your preferences a few weeks after the wedding busyness.

How far in advance would you recommend booking vendors?

 

Booking your most prioritized vendors as soon as possible is important - Most vendors are booked out 10-15 months in advance. Popular seasons and weekends fill up the quickest. Booking early ensures that we can secure your date, plan a dreamy engagement session if required, and get to know each other so your day feels effortless and personal from start to finish.
