When Paris’ mom approached me to take her Back to School portraits I was beyond thrilled. I met Paris and her mom years back at a destination wedding and we have stayed in touch over the years. As a result I have watched Paris grow from a sweet shy child to a young teenager trying to find her place in the world. This past year Paris ran in Miss Teen BC and I was so proud watching her and her voice and self confidence grow. On the evening of our mini portrait session Paris was sweet, kind and engaging and spoke of her passion to become an actress one day. I have no doubt in my mind that this girl will move mountains to obtain her goals.

The first week of school is done and gone and with that it’s time for those epic Back to School Pictures! I really don’t understand them- at all, they are always, for us at least, the worst pictures ever and don’t get me started on the odd backgrounds that they always seem to choose for my kids previews- has anyone ever actually ordered the galaxy one with the shooting stars?! So with that I have started to offer Back to School Mini Sessions- simple.

Message me to book your child’s session!

Capturing the moments that matter in Chilliwack, BC.

Chris' mom and I grew up together in Chilliwack, BC, in fact we attended kindergarten together! We were silly little kids and rowdy teenagers together. We've grown apart and close together numerous times over the last 35 years but no matter what she is the one friend that I know I can always count on. I have watched her and her husband raise Chris to be the upstanding young man that he is; an outstanding athlete, a hard worker, and a good role model. He is just an all around awesome young man to be around. To say I was totally honoured when she asked me to do his formal portraits with his girlfriend Alexa on his prom day is an understatement!. Chris and Alexa were total and complete rock stars during their session and didn't complain once despite the heat, the sun and the mosquitoes! I had so much fun with you both and am so proud of all your accomplishments Chris. So excited to see where you go from here.
