I have to admit, this session had me quite nervous. I was asked the night before this surprise engagement session to help coordinate and photograph it by a close family friend of the un-assuming fiancé, Madi. A surprise engagement is a huge moment in the lives of the two people involved and I felt a giant responsibility […]

I am super excited to be hosting another pop up event in Brooks! I’ve had it floating around social media for a few weeks and if you’ve made it to my blog for information, scroll down to view some fun sessions that I’ve photographed recently! The pop up event is a very quick, very fun, […]
Rachel Boekel Photography :: Baby Josh ::
The first I had even heard of this sweet boy was second hand from a friend. She had been nearby in the hospital after he had been born when little Josh’s very excited older brother found out he had a new brother, and was so excited, he ran up and down the hallway with love […]
The Fouche kids at the chicken coup :: Brooks Alberta Family Photography ::
Nothing makes me happier in my creative heart than to get to photograph people in their home element. Family sessions at home or while being active, or on a farm are always my favourite, especially with kids. I feel like kids are always more at home, more genuine and more relaxed in their own environment. […]
Brooks Alberta Family Photography ::The Anderson Family ::
Not much is better for my photo ego than when someone travels far and wide to come to Brooks for a photo session with me. And while that is not exactly what happened in this case, it is kind of sort of, a little bit – isn the case. After travelling all the way from Manitoba, […]
Canmore Alberta Photography :: The Canmore Sessions ::
The Canmore Pop Up Photo Event was a lot of fun. These are obviously (see snow on the ground) a little late being blogged! I happened to pick the iciest week of the whole winter in Canmore to do these sessions, so the entry and exit points for these photos were pretty sketchy to walk […]
Tillebrooks Provincial Park :: Rutherford Family Session ::
This session was amazing. For a lot of reasons. Firstly, it was 5pm and we had 6 kids under six to photograph… if you have kids, if you are a photographer, you are likely laughing at me saying “good luck”, BUT!… check it out. First three photos and all the kids are A) in the […]
Pop Up Event :: Brooks Alberta Family Photographer ::
What an amazing day today has been. It’s been full of surprises, sunshine and wonderful reflection. Tuesdays are my work day, so I usually have some extra time to myself to have a coffee, or start on a new idea, or try to catch up. Today I covered all of those. Today I wanted to […]
Brooks Alberta Winter Maternity Session :: Van Der Merve’s Maternity ::
When the hoar frost is this good, one needs to find the perfect pair for a portrait session! I had discussed a different session with these two, but who can pass up on a day like this. Elizna and Danie happened to both be available and we spontaneously pulled this session together. I am so […]
Dominique, Jamie & Chloe :: Okotoks Alberta Family Photographer ::
I’ve had the best time photographing this wonderful family over the years. Starting with their engagement photos, and wedding photos, and now their 3rd annual family photo. We met up on a beautiful Fall day along the Sheep River in Okotoks, AB. Throwing stones, chasing each other through the woods and playing in the sprinkle […]
