It's truly something special to be invited into a client's life to capture their most precious milestones again & again; from engagement, to baby, and soon to to be wedding, it has been such a privilege to be there alongside Kristina and Steve (and now, little Madeline)!
This was such a sweet family session at their home in Halifax and I am so happy we could squeeze it in while Madeline was still tiny. Of course, we had to include their other baby, Casey the dog, who did so well with her new sibling!
I only take on a limited number of family sessions each year; booking is open for 2023, whether you want your own cozy indoor session, a playful afternoon in the snow or want a springtime session, you can get in touch with me here.

I had the pleasure of meeting Lindsey and Parker when they first moved to Halifax from the US so that Parker could attend Dal Dentistry - Lindsey is a talented photographer in her own right and we ended up working together on some weddings over the past couple of years! Now that Parker is finishing school, they are planning to move back to the States, and wanted to take a piece of the East Coast with them.

I absolutely love working with Jennifer of Jennifer Murphy Beauty, and when she asked me to do a branding shoot for her, I was honored! We shot these images for her business at the Alexander Keith’s Brewery Building in Halifax, where she has her own studio for you to get glammed up with lashes or makeup (I’ve had both done by Jennie, and let me tell you - she is AMAZING!).

It was such a pleasure creating these family portraits for Melissa, Daniel, and cutie pie Harper (who did SO well, even though it was freezing!) at their new home together in Sackville, Nova Scotia. All of these were taken in their own backyard! Winter may be on its way out here in Halifax, but I’ve been enjoying shooting in the snow over the past few months. There’s just something special about that white fluff that makes for some incredible moments!

Today’s blog post features someone near and dear to my heart - my very own momma!
When my mom asked me to take some photos of her, I knew I had to give her the very best experience possible. I enlisted Jennifer Murphy Beauty for glam, rented the Many Hats Studio for a few hours, and picked up a new backdrop for the shoot, all ready for when she finished her hair appointment at Team Orlando Hair Studio. An extra huge thank you to Jennifer for making my mom feel like a superstar! Doesn’t she look absolutely stunning?!
We had so much fun during the session, and I feel incredibly lucky that I could capture some beautiful images of someone I love so much. Here are some of my favourites!

Earlier this summer I had the opportunity to hang out and shoot some branding images for the amazing Alyssa Valletta Bustin, owner of Flavour Photo and Alyssa Joy Photography. Alyssa moved to Halifax, Nova Scotia all the way from Nashville, Tennessee this year and I am so happy our paths crossed! Not only have I had the chance to work with her on weddings here (and pick her brain on how to create the perfect cheese board), but I am lucky enough to call her a friend!
Alyssa’s style has a lot of film influence (she shoots film too, guys!) so I kept that in mind when creating these branding images for her. We shot these in her cozy Halifax apartment, with copper, wood, and greenery accents (and a crocodile skull to boot). Scroll through to see more from this session!

After a whirlwind of a weekend (2 weddings and a glamorous boudoir session!), it was a nice surprise to find out I’ve been featured in this month’s PICTON Magazine!

At the end of March, I met up with model and blogger Sehmat Suri from City Models and Nadia Dajani, stylist, blogger (Every Wear I Go) and co-owner of The Shop Splurge to create this colorful downtown fashion shoot.
I’ve been sitting on these images until I was able to announce… we were published this month in SHUBA Magazine! Here are some of my favorite shots from our collaboration.

Chelsey Belliveau Photography and I became internet friends a while back, since we are both wedding photographers here in Nova Scotia. Although we’ve chatted endlessly, we only met for the first time back in April! This month, Chelsey made the trek from Yarmouth to Halifax for her birthday celebration and we squeezed in a mentorship session while she was here.

At the end of March, I had the pleasure of meeting up with the phenomenal Meghan Lawlor Makeup for a quick branding shoot at her home and studio in Dartmouth, Nova Scotia. Meghan is such a warm, wonderful person and we spent more time chatting than shooting - she’s so easy to talk to, along with being incredibly talented. She even does tutorials for those who need some extra tips in the makeup department (hello, me!) that you can watch here. We snapped a few with her sweet partner, Chris, too!
