Sometimes Mother Nature gives us a little extra. 🤍⛵

This sweet couple showed up for their maternity session with the biggest smiles, their adorable pup, and so much love for each other. Then we spotted something completely unexpected…

A sailboat had washed up on the beach after the storm the night before.

It’s not every day you get a photo prop like that! We took full advantage of the moment, and it made this session feel even more unique. I love when a little bit of spontaneity turns into something you’ll never be able to recreate.

Add in the Vancouver skyline, the mountains, a happy dog, and two people counting down the days until they meet their baby, and it made for such a fun evening.

If you’ve been thinking about maternity photos, let’s create something that’s beautifully you… and if we happen to get a surprise washed up on the beach, we’ll roll with that too. 😉 Link in bio.

6 years can change a lot. 🤍

When I met up with this family again at one of my favourite beach locations, the first thing we all said was, “How has it been six years already?!”

The girls had grown up so much. One is graduating this year, and it was actually the other daughter who suggested it was time for updated family photos. I have to say… I think she was onto something. 🥹

They were so fun to hang out with, I had them skipping, twirling, snuggling, laughing, and simply enjoying being together. It felt less like a photo shoot and more like catching up with old friends while hanging out at the beach.

I think one of the biggest misconceptions is that your family has to change in a huge way before it’s worth booking another session. But the little changes quietly add up. Suddenly your kids are taller, their personalities have evolved, and somehow 6 years have slipped by in the blink of an eye.

I’m so grateful we got to capture this chapter together before the next one begins.

Can we all agree that confidence looks good on everyone? ❤️🤍

This session was such a blast. Vintage pin-up vibes, beach balls, red and white checkers, Vancouver showing off in the background… and one absolutely gorgeous human who decided to celebrate herself.

I’m so proud of my friend Pamm Olivia West for choosing to step in front of the camera, embrace this version of herself, and have so much fun doing it. Sometimes a photo session isn’t just about the photos. It’s about reminding yourself that you’re allowed to take up space, feel beautiful, and do things simply because they make you happy.

And yes… we laughed a lot. 😊

If you’ve ever wanted to do a session just for you, consider this your little nudge. You don’t need a special occasion. You already are one.

I couldn’t wait for this gallery to be finished before sharing this one. 💜

This beautiful family is still choosing their favourite images, and honestly… I don’t blame them one bit.

Choosing photos of the people you love is hard. Every smile, every cuddle, every little expression means something, and suddenly narrowing it down feels almost impossible.

I know whichever images they choose are going to be treasured for years to come, but this one deserved an early appearance on my feed. The lavender, the connection, the love… I just couldn’t keep it to myself.

I can’t wait to share more from this gorgeous session.

If you’ve been thinking about updating your family photos, I’d love to create something you’ll have a hard time choosing between too. 💛 Link in bio.

Families don’t all look the same… and I think that’s a beautiful thing. 🤍

This wonderful crew reminded me that family isn’t about how your story begins. It’s about the people who choose to love, support, and show up for each other every single day.

From the moment we met at the beach, it was obvious how naturally they fit together. The kids were laughing, teasing each other, happily jumping into photos (even the older ones!), and the whole session felt easy and full of genuine connection.

One thing I hear sometimes is, “We’re waiting until things settle down.”

But family doesn’t have to look a certain way or reach some imaginary milestone before it’s worth documenting. This is your family’s story, exactly as it is today, and that’s more than enough.

I’m so glad they chose to celebrate this chapter together, because years from now these photos won’t just remind them what everyone looked like. They’ll remind them how it felt to be building this life together.

There is just something magical about maternity sessions in the lavender fields. 💜

Between the soft purple blooms, the laughter, and these two completely smitten with each other, this session felt so easy. They spent the session laughing, sneaking little hugs. I hope they are soaking in these last quiet weeks before life gets beautifully turned upside down.

I’m so excited for them as they get ready to meet their little one. What a lucky baby to be joining this sweet family.

Congratulations again, you two. I can’t wait to see what this next chapter has in store for you. 🤍

If you’re expecting and would love maternity photos that feel natural, relaxed, and full of connection, I’d love to help. Link in bio ⬆️

When the birthday girl says, “I want a photo shoot with my besties,” my answer is always… YES. 🥹🤍

I absolutely loved this idea.

She wanted to spend time at the beach with her favourite people, laughing, being silly, and creating photos they can look back on for years to come. Honestly, I think that’s such a fun way to celebrate.

These girls were the sweetest group of tweens. They hyped each other up, embraced every idea, and made my job so easy. Their friendships were just as beautiful as the photos we created.

I know some parents wonder if kids this age are “too cool” for family or friend photos. In my experience, it’s usually the opposite. Give them permission to have fun, and they’ll absolutely run with it.

I have a feeling these images are going to become even more meaningful as they grow up. One day they’ll look back and remember exactly who they were, who they laughed with, and how much fun they had together.

Some photos just make me stop for a second. 🥹

I couldn’t wait until this gallery was finished to share this one.

I’ve photographed this sweet family a few times now, and every session reminds me how much fun they genuinely have together. The giggles, the snuggles, the way Mom and Dad are completely present with their girls… none of it feels forced. They simply enjoy being together, and that makes my job pretty easy.

Throw in a Vancouver beach, the mountains, the skyline, and a little golden light, and you’ve got one of those photos that feels every bit as good as it looks.

If you’re hoping for family photos that feel relaxed, playful, and true to your family, I’d love to help you create them. Head to the link in my bio ⬆️

Sometimes I have ideas that sound a little ridiculous…

“Okay, I need you two to stand perfectly still while the kids sprint through the frame a hundred times. Trust me.” 😂

Thankfully, this sweet family was all in, and I absolutely love how this artsy little experiment turned out. The motion, the chaos, the calm in the middle… it’s such a fun way to capture what family life actually feels like.

So if I ask you to do something that sounds a bit weird during your session… just roll with it. I promise there’s usually a method to the madness. 😉

Some little personalities walk into the studio and completely steal the show. 🥹🚂

This sweet guy brought the biggest smiles, and his momma made the photos extra special with a little train spelling out his name. I have a feeling these photos are going to be looked at over and over again as he grows.

Kids this age have a way of making every session completely unique, and I wouldn’t have it any other way. 💛

If you’ve been thinking it’s about time to update your family photos, I’d love to help you create something that feels just as fun and full of personality. Link in bio ⬆️
