✨Most headshots aren’t good enough…

Your headshot IS a first impression and you don’t get to explain it. Most people think a good headshot is about the nice smile.

The nice smile is NOT alone why clients book.

If your lighting is off, if your skin feels dull/flat/lifeless, if your image isn’t sharp and clear… it’s not working for you even if you think it’s ’fine.’

If business professionals are using images that don’t reflect the level there operating at, people will feel the gap.

When you have professional images, you’re building how your brand is perceived and THIS is what creates trust.

Let’s just say it. Trust = $$$

If your headshot isn’t doing that, it’s time for an upgrade. DM me to book a session 💌
Individual session in Strathroy, team sessions available on location.

The fastest way to ruin a photoshoot?

Trying to control it…

I see it every now and then, overthinking, second guessing every pose, questioning direction mid shoot and I get it. It’s vulnerable.

As I let you know when we’re shooting, the magic happens when you let yourself be, it’s not supposed to be super serious, stiff, or totally proper. Sometimes we do things mid shoot just to loosen tension and the images that follow are THE ones. There’s a method to the madness 🙈

You hired me for a reason, not just to take your photos but to guide the entire experience.

The clients who get the best results? They trust the process, fully. When you release the control, everything else falls into place and you get authentic images that look like you. I promise!

If you’re ready for that kind of shoot, you know where to find me 💌

If you bring some of your thoughts and ideas, I’ll guide them into a shoot that actually makes sense for your business 💕...

Your brand definitely does not say the same as I’ve experienced many times over in my own business over the course of 6 years…so your photos shouldn’t either.

What works when you start your business is exactly what you needed at the time, but as your business grows your audience becomes more specific, you refine your offers, and your confidence grows.

Then you get to this point (again happened to me recently 🙈) where your content feels super off.
When you know, trust me, you know!
…and it’s not that it’s bad content, it just doesn’t reflect where you’re at today.

This is where businesses can get stuck because they keep using the same photos for a version of their business they’ve outgrown.

For this shoot with Therapist .psychotherapy we aligned her re-brand with the level she’s stepping into which changes everything 💕

‘I choose you to do my photos because you help guide the right poses and I appreciate that’

…that is exactly why I share what I do, and do what I do! Yes I work behind the camera but I’ve also spent well over a decade in front of it, even as a professional I know how terrible it can feel to not have guidance from a photographer. Guidance and comfort is key in my process. The cup of tea, the chat before the camera comes out, the ease, it matters more in the outcome than just pulling out a camera. It’s intimidating and I know it.

If you are nervous about showing up online, being seen in photos, or haven’t liked your images in the past, I’m your girl!

Thanks to for trusting me with your headshot and portrait website refresh! She’s a wonderful Body Sugaring Educator from Alexandria Professional 💕 even enlightened me during our session! Love the pro’s I get to work with!

POV: you open my camera roll ✨

It’s sooooo much more than just photos… it’s direction, strategy, keeping an eye on ALL the finer details down to your hair placement and clothing.

You can have the trust that I got you and we are capturing moments that very much feel like you!

Ready to feel that shift and create better content?
Let’s chat 💌

If you don’t know who your target audience is, do NOT book a branding shoot yet! If you’re trying to speak to everyone then you’re speaking to no one.

I see a lot of people pump out content in every direction without a clear audience in mind and it just doesn’t work. Who are you speaking to? What problems of theirs are you trying to solve? What’s their age range? Income level? What do they worry about at night?

Before the camera is ever picked up, you must know your audience so the images feel intentional, aligned, and create connection with the audience in mind.

If you’re ready to get intentional about your images, let’s chat 💌

He came in for a portfolio build…and left booking real work.

Even landed himself on the cover of a romance novel that I totally spotted in Superstore one evening 👀

The proof that it’s not about taking more photos, it’s about creating the right ones.

Yesssss I do headshots, BUT we also pull it back and do a few more personality driven images too. You get to choose what images you want at the end of the day but I LOVE being able to give people variety to pick from. The goal is always to shoot images you’re excited to use!

We captured some traditional headshots on a white backdrop that absolutely serve their necessary purpose especially for local Realtor Liam McEachen for signage, marketing material, business cards.

Then more relaxed images like the grey backdrop that brings people in a little closer in wanting to know more about the person behind the business, perfect for about me intro posts, LinkedIn, profile images.

✨You don’t need more photos. You need the right ones like Susan from

Here’s why if you are in business you NEED these 3:

1. Headshot / Key Portrait – Your photo is the first thing people see on socials, websites, and profiles. Make it confident and approachable so they remember you.

2. Lifestyle / Behind the Scenes – Give people a glimpse of how you work and what the experience feels like. It makes your brand human and builds instant trust.

3. Custom Brand Imagery – Your details, your props, your vibe. These shots tell your unique story and set you apart from cookie cutter stock photography that makes everyone’s eyes glaze over.

Together these show who you are, how you work, and why someone should choose you!

I’m not just one thing…and never have been.

Photographer.
Shooter.
Gym girlie.
Caffeine obsessed.
Model.
BC mountain biker…even if I live in the flattest province now.
Self portrait artist.
Curly hair one day, straightened the next.

You’ve probably seen one version of me but there’s ALWAYS more behind it.
For a long time I used to hide some of those pieces wondering what people would think until eventually I thought f*ck it, this is me. ALL of this is me.
Take it or leave it.

The truth is that every version of me built this one. The drive, the discipline, the eye, the experience of being both in front of the camera and behind it. It all adds up! It’s all a reason why I do what I do in the way that I do. There’s no one with this exact mix and no one who sees things the way I do.

Literally no one is me, and that’s the whole point 💕

What parts of you have you been leaving out…trying to make everything “fit”?
