Sneaky peekys for our first summer marathon are looking soooooooooo good!! Thank you to everyone who came out (except for all the mosquitoes - we hate you.)
One of my fave things about being a photographer is seeing my families grow up together, and I love when we get the opportunity to book back to back family sessions! Marathons are the perfect place to get together and make magic memories with the ones you love most! I loved seeing all these little cousins playing together and having the best time! Not only did we get incredible pictures, we had lots of fun too!
Crazy to think that our OG Landrie was a maternity + newborn special booking, and now there are 4 of them that I’ve had the honour of photographing maternity + newborn sessions for! I love these babies so much and it’s been an absolute joy to see them year after year! Sessions with the Schotts Crew are never boring, and having the balance of the Boyd’s there this year really brought out the best in our little gremlins - I think this is the best session we’ve had yet! 😜🤍
Love these photos and want some of your own? I still have two marathon spots open for this year, or inquire about a full session! I’d love to photograph your fam! ✨

When I Tell My Daughter
"I Love You Too"

When my daughter tells me she loves me
I want to reply I am not me without her,
that only with her, I am.
We are made of each other
for each other,
and the word "love" will never be big enough to describe
the heart of my heart,
or love's own longing.
How she has coloured me in,
at the sight of her; poetry.
How I will find her in every universe
just as she finds me in my dreams.
How this love will never boast or take, but simply
offer itself endlessly.
Because my heart doesn't just beat for her.
It beats because of her.
She is love.

- Jessica Urlichs

How about a little Ryah of sunshine for your facebook feed on this rainy day?! ;) ☀️
Congratulations to Ryah | Grad 2026!
I can't believe that this beauty has officially graduated! Time waits for no one to catch up while these little babies become wonderful young ladies... It has been a joy knowing this one over the years as she navigated her way to this moment - the beginning of a new chapter.
I'm so grateful I was able to spend some time with her and her incredible family celebrating this huge milestone and capturing her in a light that matches her radiance! I hope you love this sneak peek and I can't wait to send out the full gallery! 🤍✨
Ryah - I hope you always follow your heart and continue to get to know the parts of yourself that seek more... more light, more love, more truth, more excitement, more joy, more expansion, more you... Because who you are is inimitable.
The world deserves to know YOU, and you deserve the world! 💐☀️

Just a few favourites from last week's newborn session with sweet baby Zoe! She was an absolute dolly for her session and happily slept through most of it, waking up only in between to be changed and get her snackie rewards. Big sister was also such an incredible helper and always loves getting her photos done with me!
