Rascal's Family || Vancouver Family Photographer

These two have been together for 16 years and this is their fur baby Rascal.
Rascal didn’t live up to his name. He was the perfect gentleman, posing politely in his stylish Fall sweater.
We had originally planned on meeting at a park in Vancouver’s West End. The courtyard at their apartment building was lovely and had a beautiful pond so we decided to stay close to home.
Rascal’s family chose a Storbybook album and we went with the natural linen cover to match their sweaters.
It’s a sweet keepsake album and I enjoyed creating it for them.

Rascal’s family chose a 8x8” Storybook album of their favorite portraits from their session.

East Vancouver Family Portraits | Charles Park

Papa sewed his favorite heavy metal band patches on the vest East Van style vest and he wanted a portrait of her wearing it. I saw the bench at the end of the session and thought it would be a hilarious location. It has become my favorite portrait of 2019. East Van Kids Rule!
This sweet family chose wall art for their home and a Heirloom album with 20 portraits.
They loved the bench portrait so much we are printing it big on metal for Papa’s den.

West End Vancouver Family Portraits

I’ve been photographing this sweet West End family since their eldest was a wee baby.
We recently spent a lovely afternoon together creating portraits for their 1 year-old daughter.
Dads wanted portraits in the neighbourhood so we went on a walk together and enjoyed a lovely warm September day.

Kids on Wheels || BC Cycling Coalition

I got to spend a few days with this awesome team of Instructors from the BC Cycling Coalition 'Kids on Wheels' bicycle camp. The camp teaches children bicycle safety using push bikes. It was a super cute experience capturing their joy and excitement at learning how to bicycle.

Vancouver TD Bank Staff Portraits

I was recently invited to photograph some of the staff at TD Canada’s Vancouver office.
Who knew bankers could be so fun?

Troublemakers 4.0 || Vancouver Queer Film Festival

Troublemakers 4.0 is an inter-generational film project sponsored by the Vancouver Queer Film Festival, Reel Youth, and Love Intersections.
Aspiring young filmmakers are paired with LGBTQ2+ ‘Troublemakers’ who are change-makers in the Vancouver LGBTQ2+ community.
Inter-generational relationships are important and this project offers the participants the opportunity to learn from each other as they create impactful documentaries together.
This is my 3rd year capturing the behind the scenes action and portraits of the participants.
It is wonderful to witness their relationships and the films they create together are beautiful.
The films will be shown at the 31st Vancouver Queer Film Festival on August 18th, 2019.

I love capturing the friendships that develop during this wonderful project.

The 2019 Troublemakers 4.0

Watch me Grow || Vancouver Family Photographer

Raise your hand if you’re a second or third child and have less photos of your childhood than your siblings.
What I love about this family is that they are doing family portraits of their daughter at the same age that they had their son’s session. So she will have memories of her childhood too.
We met for their session at Jericho Beach Park and they were late due to an unexpected need for an outfit change.
These things happen. :)

This FAMILY chose a sweet 8x8” STORYBOOK ALBUM of THEIR FAVORITE portraits FROM THEIR JERICHO BEACH PARK SESSIon.
