Lolli & Pop’s Family! North Battleford, Sk. Extended Family Session When the summer heat was at its peak, I was capturing these energetic kids at their extended family session! This can be a challenge, especially when they’re all in a younger age range! It’s important to be not only efficient, but also adaptable to keep…
Stocking her bookshelves full of novels, catering fully to the romance genre. While chatting during out time together, she was full of suggestions, and I left with not only fantastic images for her to promote herself and her business, but with a list of book suggestions to check out. (Which, when I got a chance…
They had such an ease at being with each other, and their session was full of smiles and kisses. This evergreen park in Saskatoon worked perfectly for their session, and the sun peeked through the trees to give us the most delightful evening light!`;
I recently had the pleasure of capturing an absolutely delightful engagement session in a cozy backyard dog run during the fleetingly fast fall season. Let me tell you, it was an experience that embodied everything I love about photography – two people crazy in love, beautiful light, and above all, fun! Picture this: a lovely…
It was a little bittersweet this year, I photographed the last high school graduation for this family! I’ve been lucky enough to have photographed all 3 of their children’s grads! (Hopefully more in the future, if secondary school happens to be their paths, and updating family photos as the years pass as well!!) This family…
As a lover of soft, neutral colors, I was so happy to be taken out of my neutral comfort zone, and see such a happy burst of color brought into the studio for this session! The bright pink flamingos on her robe were absolutely my favorite wardrobe item she brought in with her, but each…

This stunner of a lady came into the studio for a session, and when we were planning and talking about a dance theme, she offered up, “I have a Black Swan costume I made for Halloween, would you like me to bring it in?” How could I NOT jump at the chance to have her…
Hitting the road for a little road trip last summer to meet this group was so much fun. The moment I pulled into the farmyard, some of the kids ran up to meet me and introduce themselves and start talking with me. They were so excited for the spending the evening with all of their…
My sister and her now husband decided summer 2020 was their time to get married, pandemic or not. They wanted something small, intimate and simple. They just wanted to be married. Flash forward after a few texts, and we went into planning mode. I sent her a name of a marriage commissioner. I pulled up…
Taylor and Scott were married in the fall of 2019. This gorgeous, rustic barn nestled on the groom’s family land was a perfect location for Taylor & Scott’s rustic fall wedding! Restored by the groom along with some helping hands along the way, the work they put into all the details throughout their day were…
Last summer, I drove out to do a grad session for my friend’s son. It was great to get to see them, as with covid, we hadn’t been able to see each other. We hit up the same general location as with his older sister’s grad session we did a couple years ago, but found…
We all know how 2020 changed so many aspects of our lives this past year. Graduates, teachers and families all had to find different ways to celebrate this milestone.

Obviously, the school year ended way different than of us expected to, but the amount of compassion and dedication from the teachers and communities to try and celebrate this huge milestone for these graduates was so inspiring to watch. In my town, a caravan(parade??) was planned, where the graduates lined up down the main road,…
This bombshell booked her session with me from a fundraiser I donated to to help raise funds through last year’s Trash the Dress for Charity Event. She came, with a big smile, and was so excited for her session. While getting her hair and makeup done, we chatted all about her nephews and family, and…
Kaylee and Eric got engaged on a park bench, during a walk one evening. Earlier that day, he’d surprised Kaylee with flowers at work. I was so crazy excited for them when she told me!! Kaylee was the first friend I’d made on my first day at a new school in grade 10, and to…
Taylor & Scott decided to have their engagement session at Black Fox Farm and Distillery just outside of Saskatoon this past summer.

Getting to know these two throughout their session, I loved how these two looked at eachother….
Flashback to summer when it was HOT as all heck that day!! Sharnelle and Braden brought their two sweet little girls for a few family photos before we continued on with just the two of them.

I watched the weather report like crazy that morning. Rain was all over the forecast, so I packed the umbrellas, and crossed my fingers for the best. We lucked out, and the worst we got during the whole session was a bit a of misty rain; and as I got into my car at the…
I know, everyone is tired of hearing about this past winter in Saskatoon. And for the most part, I agree. I don’t love freezing my fingers and toes nose and every other body part just walking from my car to wherever I need to quickly dash into. But, I do love the winter scenery for…
We couldn’t have asked for a more magical winter afternoon for their session, and Larissa and Devin were such troopers with how cold this day was! With the mid weather we have been having lately, it’s almost hard to remember the chill and snow we had just a short while ago! (I am NOT complaining…
I find it a little bit of a tease to be blogging about late summer/fall sessions in the winter. I love sweater weather, not too hot, not too cold. I have a love/hate relationship with winter, but that’s a topic for another day. I love this couple. They are two of the sweetest and friendliest…
Torri won a portrait session at the Pure Dance convention earlier this fall, and I was so incredibly excited as her session date came up!

From getting ready at her parent’s house, we went to having a first look in the same area that we took their engagement photos the previous fall. They kept their bridal party small, just her sister and his best friend to stand up with them. At so many different parts of their day, it all…
A & A had a cozy and intimate wedding, where they were surrounded by only their closest family and friends. Around 25 people walked into the park, some with chairs tucked under their arms. Tucked in a clearing in the trees, it didn’t shield us from the hot summer wind blowing that day, but it…
Spending an evening catching up with this wonderful couple to document and celebrate another milestone in their relationship was an abosolute joy! We had last each other when they had their maternity session this past winter before their little guy was born. I knew they had chemistry then, but at their engagement session, they totally…
Oh my goodess, grad sessions are so much fun! This girl, who is a photography lover as well, had such a fun energetic disposition during her session! We had a bit of a tighter timeline to make sure she arrived in time for her grad banquet, and we worked quickly to get some great images…
How lucky am I that my sister is always willing to be a model for me?! It was a such a fun morning to have her in the studio, and be able to talk and catch up on all the details of each other’s lives. We even snuck out to the rooftop and took a…
This gorgeous lady came in for some beauty portraits, and she totally nailed it!! We met years ago when we worked at a restaurant, and I love that we have been able to keep in touch throughout the years. We did a trash the dress session with her and her husband a few years ago,…
Oh wow!! This was first time I have shot a couple’s boudoir session, and I love that we planned to do it in their home. The weekend we had picked for this session was jam packed with different events, but once the time came and we got started, it felt like nothing else was going…
This little birthday girl is the whole reason I went down to Moose Jaw a while back! We cleared out an area in her bedroom, and set up a little studio area to photograph a cake smash and some birthday portraits. This little one was not really into her smashing the cake, despite her usual…
I took a road trip to visit one of my friends and her family for her youngest daughter’s first birthday back in April, and spend the weekend with them photographing a few different events, so watch the blog for a couple more posts featuring them! First up, was their family portrait session. We found a…
It was so nice and cozy warm for this newborn little man in the house, and mom & dad didn’t need to take him out in the cold! The weather had been cold, and super snowy and melty, and I even got my car stuck…. right in front of their house…. So the dad and…
I met this family when I had a booth a local family expo this past spring. Through planning their session, and during their session, they were so incredibily sweet, and easy going, such an absolute pleasure!! The weather was still pretty cool out, and so we decided to head indoors – and they got to…
If there is one thing that makes me dislike this seemingly endless winter season a little bit less, it’s being able to get images like these!! I love how this recent beauty portrait session came together! We lucked out, and the day before her session it snowed a whole bunch, so we had some nice…
Brrr!! This winter seems to have been never ending!! But really, even when you live in Saskatchewan, and you’re used to the long cold winters that come with living in the prairies, by March, we are all just over the winter season! This gorgeous couple’s session day came during a weekend where the snow just…
Photographing women has always been a love of mine. I love being able to work one on one and really focus in one just her. Her beauty, her strength. No matter who she is outside of her session, for a little while, it’s all about her, and making her feel like her best self. Often…
This whole family absolutely glowed and radiated happiness from the moment we met up at the location right until we finished, even despite the brisk winter weather we were having. Luckily, the weather warmed up a bit from the seriously cold snap we had, so we weren’t completely frozen. Taking a few warm up breaks…
Coming up this winter is this couple’s 10th wedding anniversary. Yes, 10th!! 10 years married, 2 kids, and so many countless memories and moments that have led up to this celebration for them. We had been talking about and planning this session for so long, I can’t even remember how long… honestly, since I became…
If I could, I’d be shooting in this area ALL THE TIME!! I cannot get enough of the mountains in the horizon! (Must be the Prairie girl in me that just completely enamored) It was gorgeous September day, no wind, rain, or any other weather hiccups that we usually end up having when we have…
The afternoon of their engagement session, we debated if we should move it indoors, or possibly reschedule, as it was pretty drizzly and rainy. We ended up deciding to take our chances with the weather, of course, they didn’t have full on rain until I got there! I brought the rain and cold with me,…
I met this family on a cool Sunday afternoon. As I drove to meet them at our location, the first snowflakes of the year were making a sneaky appearance. Hard to believe, as just a week after this session, we are back to highs of almost 20 degrees. I know it won’t last too much…
We have been having such beautiful fall weather so far this year, that has been so perfect for getting out and taking photos! This year clients have been quick to suggest locations that mean something to them and their families. This family asked if we could go to the dog park where they like to…
