FAMILY PHOTOGRAPHY

No stiff poses. No forced smiles. Just you, as you are!

Whether we capture a lazy Sunday morning at home, the softness of the newborn bubble, Friday make your own Pizza Night, a day at the botanical gardens, or a chaotic and love-filled bedtime routine, my approach is all about storytelling.

Two adults and two children in a kitchen preparing food and drinks at a wooden dining table. The woman in a red sweater and the man in a blue shirt are engaged in food preparation. The children are drinking from cups at the table. The kitchen has white and wooden cabinets, a window, and various kitchen items on the counters.

Types of  Sessions

  • Whether it’s a cozy morning routine, a park adventure, or just a snapshot of your everyday magic. These sessions last up to an hour capture the essence of your family in a snapshot of this moment in your lives.

    It’s what I like to refer to as the bite-sized version of the "Day in the Life" experience!

    • 60min

    • 50 images

    Pricing starts at 525$

  • The ultimate storytelling session, every little detail, from morning bedhead to evening snuggles. A Day in the Life session is the perfect occasion to fully capture the essence of your family!

    The love, the laughs, the tears and yes, even the chaos that it entails. These sessions come in the form of the full day or half days.

    Pricing typically ranges from 1200-2500$

    Curious about this but not ready to commit to the full or half day? Book a “Slice of Life” session and get a 10% discount on a full session booked within the year that follows.

“Je voulais juste prendre un petit

moment pour te remercier

infiniment de la part de nous

tous pour le merveilleux cadeau

que tu nous a fait! Tu as su

capter toute l'essence de notre

chez nous dans sa ruralité et

l'amour qui s'y promène. Tu as

su me faire voir mon chez moi

d'un angle tellement merveilleux

et c'est si touchant pour moi

parce que je suis une personne

qui doute souvent de moi..

C'est un des plus beaux cadeau

qu'on m'est jamais offert.”

What to Expect

I’m here for the real stuff: the chaos, the belly laughs, the happy tears, the weird little moments and everything in between. I’ll adapt to whatever energy you bring and photograph the big things and the tiny things as they unfold.

You get to be yourselves. I’ll worry about the rest.

You’ve picked a date, hit the proverbial “book session” button and now… what?! Do you just wait and hope for the best? Nope. 😉

Depending on the kind of session we’ve booked, we’ll have a quick phone call or an email exchange, whatever feels easiest for you. For Day in the Life and Half Day in the Life sessions, I love meeting in person beforehand. Having the whole family see my face and interact with me at least once before I show up with a camera makes a surprisingly big difference, especially for little ones (and camera-shy grown-ups!).

I’ll also send you a little questionnaire before our session so I can get to know your family, your plans, and what matters to you. Whether we’re documenting everyday life at home in Montréal, a family vacation in Métis-sur-Mer, a day at the Botanical Gardens, or simply spending a few hours following wherever your family naturally takes us, we’ll go into the session with a plan, but not a script.

The goal is for everyone to feel comfortable enough to forget I’m there. That’s when the good stuff happens.

You've booked a session. Now what?!

If what you’re looking for is a perfectly posed family portrait on a white background, everyone looking at the camera, beautifully coordinated outfits and not a single stray crumb in sight… I am probably not your girl.

And that’s totally okay! There is absolutely nothing wrong with wanting that kind of photography. It’s just not what makes me excited to pick up my camera.

I have some wonderfully talented photographer friends who specialize in that kind of work, and I’d be very happy to point you in their direction.

I’m much more interested in what happens between the poses. The ridiculous, tender, loud, awkward, ordinary, completely-you stuff.

Who are my clients?

My families are the ones who want to remember what it actually felt like to be there.

Maybe you’re raising tiny humans in Montréal and want photographs of the beautiful, ridiculous chaos of everyday life. Maybe you’re visiting Montréal for a family vacation and want something more meaningful than the obligatory group photo in front of a landmark. Maybe you’re recently separated and you want new pictures for your walls. Maybe you’re documenting a season of life before your kids get any bigger, or gathering everyone together while you’re all in the same place.

And maybe, if you’re anything like me, you’re tired of not being in the pictures. You want more than the occasional selfie, or the one you had to ask for which broke the magic of the moment!

You probably don’t particularly love posing. You might actively hate having your photograph taken. You want the belly laughs, messy hair, wandering feet, big feelings, quiet cuddles, and all the weird little things your family does that you never want to forget. My approach to documentary family photography is mostly hands-off, with a little gentle direction when it helps the story along.

I want to be welcomed into your world and photograph it as it really is. Your family, your place, your people, doing your thing.

Who am I not the photographer for?

Your toddler refuses to cooperate. Someone spills their breakfast. Your teenager would rather be literally anywhere else. The baby cries. Your partner didn’t pack diapers. The dog loses its mind. Your partner tells you they’re “just not good at photos.”

Excellent. You’re exactly where you need to be.

You don't need to get everyone dressed, fed, happy, clean and emotionally regulated before I arrive. In fact, please don't….

I’m not coming to manufacture a perfect family moment. I’m coming to photograph your actual family, which means we might have chaos, quiet, negotiations, snack breaks, big feelings and a whole lot of running around.

You don't have to perform for me. You just have to be yourselves. I’ll take care of the rest.

Also… I have a toddler a baby and a partner who hates their picture taken… I’ve been there ;)

What if my family is… a lot?
