Sarah & Erwin | Vancouver Maternity Photographer



March 14, 2016

I have been friends with Sarah’s younger sister, Kaitlin, since I was 16 and after just seeing Sarah again for the first time in years back in December, at Kaitlin’s wedding, I was ecstatic to learn that she was expecting. When I heard from Sarah just a few weeks later to ask me to capture her maternity photos, I was over the moon. We quickly found a date that worked for us before it got too close to her due date.

With the clouds looking ominous, yet the rain holding off, we headed to Stanley Park on a Sunday afternoon. We had some beautiful landscape and urban backdrops and lucky for us the rain never came, and the sun peeked through! It was mild and mid January, and we didn’t even need jackets. These two were such naturals in front of the camera and I am so grateful to have been able to capture their first baby maternity photos!

These two have since given birth to a handsome baby boy, and I wish them all the best in their parenthood journey!

Melissa & Emily | Vancouver Maternity Photographer



September 4, 2014

A bohemian inspired maternity shoot with Melissa and Emily was exactly what I had imaged when we started talking about it months ago!

A ‘ mommy and me’ session before the next little girl joins us! Those of you who have been following my work for a while, probably recognize Melissa and Emily from the countless sessions I have had with them over the last three years! She is most definitely my best and most loyal client and through that, we have formed an awesome friendship! Words can hardly express how I love this girl and her family. I have truly watched them grow since the beginning and that is such an incredible part of this job!

Melissa had her dress specially made by a family member, her hair and makeup done by me, and the rest is alll her! She couldn’t have looked more stunning. A glowing momma to be, round 2! Just a few weeks after our session, Melissa gave birth to another beautiful girl, Rosalie. She made her appearance early and I cannot wait to capture their family of four next time I am in BC!

Thanks again and again for being so good to me and allowing me to grow as a photographer, right along side of your growing family.

Tanya | Memramcook Maternity Photographer



June 27, 2014

Let me start off by saying I was gifted with incredibly beautiful friends who let me take photos of them, and I couldn’t be more grateful of that! Tanya is one of the sweetest, funniest, and most loveable lady I’ve ever met in my life. She also is stunningly beautiful and insanely photogenic, which in turn makes me love her even more when she agrees to step in front of my camera. She moves naturally and at ease, like she’s been modelling her entire life! I doubt anyone could go through these photos and not smile just from seeing her smile, because I had a smile from ear to ear throughout her entire session.

Tanya was one of the first people I ever photographed when I first started my career, and I couldn’t be happier to capture her glowing face and perfect bump three years later. You can’t tell from the photos, but this day was FREEZING cold. End of May and 6 degrees, plus lovely gusts of wind,  which is not the best time to be outside in a dress. She was such a trooper and powered through it all. Lots of smiles and giggles throughout our session. I’m surprised I was able to hold the camera sturdy enough to capture her laughs as I was laughing just as hard on the other end!  We met on a dear friend’s farm out in Memramcook where we admired our surroundings and found perfect spots to shoot!

I honestly feel so lucky to have friends like these in my life and I cannot wait for the birth of her second born child this summer, where I’ll hopefully be able to sneak a few birth story pictures!

Amanda & Tim | Fredericton Maternity Photographer



May 5, 2014

Dressed for spring, but still looks like winter. Oh April, why?!

I was delighted to meet with Amanda and Tim on this warm, yet snow covered, April’s day. We had the perfect evening lighting in Odell Park for our session. I mean… PERFECT. The park was nearly empty and the paths were finally cleared! Though we did venture into some snowy areas…Very carefully. Sinking up to our knees at times. But Amanda and Tim toughed it out and we had a blast!

This adorable couple is just so gosh darn cute it brought a smile to my face with every frame! I was so excited to shoot the first maternity session of the year with these two, and hello… they rocked it. It’s obvious how devoted and in love they are to one another. Tim did his job by bringing out the giggles and smiles in Amanda, while Amanda did her job by simply looking absolutely gorgeous. Her beautiful bump made for the best shots. As did Tim’s military combats. Who doesn’t love a guy in uniform? Am I right?

These two are going to make one beautiful baby and be two amazing parents! Their future child will surely be showered with all the love in the world and grow up with the two most loving parents. I can’t wait to meet that sweet little face sometime soon! Thanks again Amanda and Tim for allowing me to be your first professional photography experience!

2013 In A Nutshell | Fredericton Wedding & Portrait Photographer



March 11, 2014

I may be a little late on this, but I wanted to post some highlights of 2013. Now it would be impossible to post every single one of my favourite photos from last year, but I posted as many as I could.

Some of my most memorable and unforgettable sessions happened this year. I witnessed a beautiful baby come into this world (BREATHTAKING), I watched best friends get married to each other in a wedding they had to planned in just two weeks ( Definitely the most special wedding of the year ), I shot 8 weddings in total, all of which brought me such happiness and pride, I met some incredibly beautiful woman for a record number of boudoir shoots this year, I was able to witness families grow and come together, and bask in the love of so many couples through so many sessions. I  was able to re-connect with old friends and make amazing new friends along the way.

I feel so eternally grateful for all the people who have shown me support and continued devotion and loyalty toward me and my dreams.  I like to call them “lifers”. The clients that have been there time and time again, to trust in me any and all of their special photography needs. Some of my proudest moments and accomplishments happened in 2013, and I know that keeps my fire burning stronger for what to bring in 2014.

I have been following my bliss for almost three years now. It hasn’t always been easy, but at the end of the day, I couldn’t be happier. Thank you to everyone from the bottom of my heart. I look forward to bringing many new blogs, posts, and photos about the love of my life: photography. 2014, let’s do this!

The Telfer Family | Fredericton Family Photographer



December 10, 2013

Oh what a day! I had such an excellent time with these four at Odell park in Fredericton, back in October. The weather was warm, the leaves were beautiful, and darn are those kids cute!

Katrina had messaged me saying she wanted to do some family shots/maternity shots before the next little boy arrives mid December, and I was so thrilled I could get her in on such a beautiful day! The three blue balloons symbolized the three boys they have/are having! Plus…The balloons were an excellent prop to keep the little ones happy and entertained throughout the shoot. We wondered around the extremely busy park, ( must have counted 6 other photographers doing sessions! ), and got all the best candid moments of the two boys! Big help was from dad throwing leaves in the air to make for some of the best laughs and smiles I’ve ever captured on camera!

These four, soon to be five, have such an excellent bond, and the kids were so well behaved and patient! I absolutely loved shooting with them! This shoot couldn’t have gone better and I can’t wait to meet the new addition!
