Photography has been part of my life for as long as I can remember. Back in Grade 10, I was the kid carrying a film camera everywhere and spending hours in the darkroom developing prints. What began as a creative outlet eventually became something much more—a way of preserving the people, connections, and fleeting moments that matter most.
When my oldest son was born in 2012, photography took on an entirely different meaning. I suddenly understood just how quickly life changes. Pregnancy, birth, those first quiet moments with a new baby—everything feels so big while you're living it, and yet somehow it passes in an instant.
That experience shaped the way I photograph motherhood today. I want to document more than what these moments looked like. I want you to be able to look back and remember how they felt—the anticipation of waiting for your baby, the excitement of meeting them for the first time, the quiet in-between moments, and the overwhelming love that comes with becoming or growing a family.
My approach is relaxed, natural, and rooted in connection. For maternity sessions, I'll offer gentle guidance while giving you space to simply be together and enjoy this season of your life. For birth photography, my focus is on quietly documenting the story as it unfolds—the details, emotions, strength, anticipation, and the first moments of your baby's life without making the experience feel staged or interrupted.
I know being in front of a camera can feel awkward. I'm much more interested in capturing the real moments than creating a picture-perfect version of them. You don't need to know how to pose or what to do with your hands. I'll guide you when needed and let the genuine moments take over when they happen naturally.
Some of my favourite photographs are the ones that can't be planned: a hand resting on a growing belly, the nervous excitement before meeting your baby, a partner's expression during those first moments, the tiny details of a newborn, or the way you look at your baby when everything else seems to disappear.
When I'm not behind the camera, I'm usually with my three kids, coffee in hand, and probably listening to a podcast. I love towering trees, being by the river, genuine conversations, and noticing the quiet beauty in everyday life.
My goal is simple: to create photographs that let you return to this chapter of your life years from now. To remember the anticipation, the connection, the strength, the love, and all those little moments that were gone almost as soon as they happened.
It is a privilege to document these beginnings, and one I never take for granted.
