I like to think I was giving "adorably determined garbage bag" energy, but the bottom line is that I will do what it takes to capture moments. (And yes, I tied plastic bags around my cameras, too.)

Documentary photography means I'm there for what actually happens, not just the parts that look good on a mood board.

Sometimes that means chasing the action in the rain, protecting my gear with whatever ridiculous solution works, and carrying on.

The photos don't stop being worth making just because the weather gets a little crazy. ❤️

Also, thank you to Tiffany Arcari for taking this photo AND lending me her adorable rain hat, which was much cuter than the plastic poncho hoodie.

Family photos should capture how life feels, not just how it looks. If that sounds interesting, we should talk. Now booking family photos full of real moments at your home, the cottage, or wherever your family loves to be together! ❤️ Based in Peterborough, Ontario, serving Southern Ontario.

Happy Mother’s Day to everyone who mothers in some way. I know so many people who quietly and consistently show up with care, patience, encouragement, thought for the little and the big things, and the kind of love that keeps people going. I feel incredibly lucky for the support I’ve received on my own journey as a mother, and I’m also holding space for anyone who finds a day like this heavy, complicated, or painful.

Mothering is a verb, built in a thousand everyday moments, and the care we celebrate today deserves to be seen and valued all year long. ❤

To be fair, for this to be totally accurate I would need to find a clip of someone singing along to musical theatre or 90's/2000's alt/rock/pop. Please don't come at me, swifties. ❤️🤣

But I definitely have a tendency to lock in and lose track of time when I am going through all the moments I catch when photographing. This is what's going on behind the scenes while you wait for your preview!

When you trust me to take your photos, here’s who shows up with a camera. A person who has always been unafraid to jump in but still notices the little things, is endlessly curious about people's stories, and is comfortable with your chaos, quiet, and everything in between.

You don’t have to perform, pose, or suddenly become a different version of yourself. All you have to do is live your life and I'll capture it. Your real life is so full of moments that deserve to be remembered exactly as they are.
