Now Booking Roadside Sessions for 2021 | Ottawa Family Photographer

What is a Roadside Session? A roadside session is exactly what it sounds like: a short & sweet photo session just off the main road.

Meet the Jenkinson Family | Ottawa Photographer

Most families who choose me to capture their family photos have no idea where they want them taken, just that they want something beautiful, and maybe they have a few preferences like neutrals-only or fall colours or near water.

Mama to Be Cynthia | Nepean Photographer

Outdoor portraits are available all year round, even during the cold winter months, with so much beauty available in the Ottawa area. Especially because pregnancy dictates the timeline, sometimes that means we are forced to get a little creative and get the most out of a shorter session to avoid frozen fingers.
