No, and that's actually a good thing!

During a session, I capture a large number of shots to ensure we have plenty of great moments to work with. However, not every frame makes the cut. Duplicates, test shots, out-of-focus images, and unflattering blinks don't make it to your gallery.

What you receive instead is a carefully curated selection of the best images from your session — each one individually selected to ensure consistent quality, beautiful toning, and a polished final look. Every photo delivered to you is one I'm truly proud of, and one that reflects the standard my work is built on.

Quality over quantity, always.

Yes, absolutely — every image you select will be carefully edited before it reaches your hands.

Here's how the process works:

After your session, you'll receive a proofing gallery to browse and make your selections from. These previews will be lightly adjusted for exposure and colour, so you can get a good sense of each shot, but they are not fully edited. Think of them as a polished preview, not the final product.

Once you've made your selections, that's when the real magic happens.

Each chosen image goes through my full editing process — colour correction, exposure refinement, and any post-processing that enhances the photo's overall feel.

When it comes to retouching, I have a philosophy I stand by: I celebrate what makes you, you. Scars, freckles, beauty marks, and other permanent features are part of your story — I won't remove them unless you specifically ask me to. Temporary things like blemishes are a different story and are something I'm happy to take care of.

Every final image is edited with care and an artistic eye, ensuring that whether you're printing a small keepsake or a large statement piece for your wall, your photos look stunning at any size.

We'll select the perfect location tailored to your desires and requirements! I can arrange for our session in one of several top-tier studios in Markham and Toronto. Additionally, I'm more than happy to travel to your home or any outdoor location, such as parks or beaches, to add a natural touch to our session. Together, we'll choose the backdrop that best tells your family's story!

Some of my outdoor recommendations for your outdoor session are:
- Edwards Gardens,
- Evergreen Brickworks,
- Guild Inn and Gardens,
- Woodbine Beach,
- Scarborough Bluffs
- Kariya Park

Some of my favourite studio locations are:
- Mintroom Studios - 300 Campbell Ave Unit, Toronto, M6P 3V6
- Preto Loft - 213 Sterling Rd, Toronto, M6R 2B2
- Mild Studios - 9 Davies Ave, Toronto, M4M 1G3
- Linen and Love Studios - 155 McIntosh Dr, Markham, L3R 5H6

Travel within my regular service area is included for most sessions. My regular service area includes Downtown Toronto, Scarborough, East York, and North York.

Because I often travel by TTC, locations should be accessible by public transit or within approximately 10 minutes walking distance from a TTC subway station, streetcar stop, or bus stop.

Some additional Toronto/GTA locations may also be included depending on accessibility. Please ask before booking if you have a specific location in mind.

If your preferred location is outside my regular service area or is not easily accessible by TTC, an additional travel fee may apply. Travel fees start at $100 for other towns/cities within the GTA and $250+ for locations beyond the GTA, depending on distance, travel time, and transportation requirements.

I accept Interac e-Transfer, Credit/Debit Card, and PayPal. Cash is accepted toward the outstanding balance only.
Please note that checks are not accepted under any circumstances. Full payment must be received before the final product is delivered.

Your session day is all about you and your family — and I want it to feel just as special as the memories we'll create together. A little preparation goes a long way in helping you feel relaxed, confident, and ready to have fun. Here's what I recommend:

- Get a good night's sleep the day before your session.
- Eat beforehand! You'll need the energy — smiling and posing is more of a workout than you'd think!
- Bringing little ones? Pack some snacks, a water bottle, and their favourite toy. It makes a world of difference.
- Plan to arrive 5 minutes early so we can ease into the session without any rush.
- Have questions or concerns? Reach out ahead of time — that's what the consultation is for! It's the perfect opportunity to share your vision and make sure we're aligned before the big day.

Yes, I have some tips that will help your photos look perfect! Once we confirm the details of your session, you’ll receive a booking confirmation with an attachment of outfit guidance to help you prepare.

In general, I recommend soft, neutral, and earthy colours because they photograph beautifully and keep the focus on your connection. Think creams, beige, soft browns, muted greens, dusty pinks, warm whites, and gentle textures.

I usually suggest choosing textures over busy patterns — things like knits, linen, cotton, lace, flowy fabrics, or simple layers. These add interest to your photos without taking attention away from you and your family.

You don’t need to match perfectly. Coordinating your outfits is usually much better than everyone wearing the exact same thing.
