Vancouver Island Triple Threat
Here is a little taste of my style! An ongoing PORTFOLIO of work that constantly changes as my style and skills evolve and trends come and go.
​
This gallery has a small mix of Pearl Package photos as well as some of my Triple Threat Wedding packages sprinkled in!
I love emotive photography. I'll promt you into interacting with whoever is on the shoot or if it's just us two then get ready for some fun! I prefer capturing true emotion and movement rather than precisely posed, but sometimes I'll throw in a posed shot if I feel like you can handle the instruction!
I let the photos dictate the editing style, I tend to be a little moody and expressive but if the light and the scenery dictates a little more light and airy, I"M GAME!
​​
I also am not a photographer who only likes to shoot at golden hour, so bring on the mid day sun, the beautiful twilight, the rain and wind! We live on Vancouver Island after all so a little bit of natural elements doesn't mean I'm going to cancel our shoot. But if you're heart is set on a particular type of backdrop or scenery if you need to reschedule it's 72 hours notice and I keep the retainer if I can't fill that booking! If I can then we will move the retainer to your new time and date... simple as that!
I love playing with light and texture and Vancouver Island is a fantastic place to have as a backyard studio! Beautifully candid shots, mixed in with some casually posed portraits. If you want photos that you'd be proud to hang big and loud on your walls like personal works of art, I'm your girl. I love having an experience with my clients, not just a photo session. I want to laugh with you, feel big feelings, push ourselves, find the moments in between the moments.
Available for : Personal branding portrait sessions or product branding, empowerment/ boudoir sessions (either 1 on 1 or for couples), weddings, elopements, all things family (pregnancy announcements, gender reveals, maternity shoots, first family photo and extended family photos).
A curated collection of some of my favorite photography sessions!
Whether it was the location, the client(s) or just the overall vibe of the booking, I chose these to display for you to browse.

J & A : Pipers Lagoon Elopement
J & A of @2heartsonfire are now close friends of mine from a styled shoot I was a part of and they were modelling for! We did this sunset elopement styled shoot for funsies and I adore how they turned out! If you see them in my work often it's because they are genuinely a pleasure to work with and A is also a fab makeup artist and assists me often on larger makeup & hair bookings!
Miss L : Sunrise & Twilight Empowerment
Miss L and I connected while I was living in Austrailia over the winter season in 2023 and booked me for her first sunrise in home photosession. She was so easy to work with that I suggested we try a twilight shoot, heavily focused on flash photography and movement. Needless to say she was 100% game and these beautiful contrasting photos of not being boxed in to only shooting at a particular time of day or location just make me feel so versatile as a photographer.
N & C : Stevenson Point Micro Wedding
N & C were a dream to work with and as they were doing a small micro wedding at Stevenson Point we had a lot of beautiful west coast nature to be our backdrop! They had a few very specific shots they wanted to spend time capturing so they added extra time to the day so that we wouldn't be rushed! We of course did some of those very posed, specific shots and then spent the rest of the time doing more fun and casual prompts and candids!
K&J : Western Australia Wedding
This was a completely last minute booking while I was in Austrailia organized by the MOH! K & J HATED getting photos done and so for their 200+ person wedding they didn't hire one. But as I was chatting with her MOH who originally connected with me as I was promoting Mini's in the area on FB, and was only going to book me for 30-45 minutes while Bride K was getting ready with her girls (which had been her favorite part of all weddings she'd been in, in the past). I completely understood their position on not wanting to be the center of attention from a photographer and I said that I could simply act like paparazzi. Shooting candids from afar with my zoom lens and I wouldn't force any "couples portraits" on them. So long story short, I shot this STUNNING group of people at a beautiful setting for 6 hours rather than 30 minutes and they were so happy they changed their mind on getting photos of the day!
T&L : Neck Point Couples Reunion Shoot
For Pride Month I did a promo for any LGTBQI+ couples wanting to get a session in and T & L connected with me as they had been doing long distance for a while and were FINALLY moving in together! As a fellow ex-long distancer with my partner I was so excited for them and you can just feel the love between these two!
M & Family : Austrailia Maternity with Family
Mumma M wanted to do a maternity shoot with a mini family session added before she gave birth to the newest edition of their growing home. She really loved the idea of golden hour and being in the water playing with her daughter as that's a night time ritual of theirs. This was such a sweet shoot to capture!
Market of Stars x Orca Gems : Branding Shoot
I loved this shoot! We worked with 3 beautiful Vancouver Island Models and two local businesses: Orca Gems and Market of Stars. Orca Gems is a jewelry company with beautiful pieces. Market of Stars creates these gorgeous kimonos with designs form local artists printed on the fabric. The stunning home is also Danielle's property (Creator of Market of Stars) and she graciously let us do this shoot there. Every cornere was something unexpectedly unique and captivating. I of course did makeup & Hair and this was one of my first Triple Threat projects I ever organized and excecuted, which is why it deserves a special spot in my gallery even though it isn't one of my most recent. My skills as a photographer and photo editor have grown so much since this shoot but my eye in regards to playing with available light and composition is evident even here....
J & K Mountwashington Rainy June: Wedding
J & K booked our Lace TRIPLE THREAT Package for their VERY West Coast Wedding. As per Vancouver Island June-uary was in full swing with temperamental rainy weather, low hanging clouds between the trees and gorgeous scenery! J added on the whole bridal party with both mum's and sister-in-law done up with makeup and hair for the day. For such a large amount of gals getting ready I had my ride or die Ashley assisting me for the morning to keep things on track and so everyone could look their most beautiful selves for the day! The Mount Washington Resort went above and beyond to quickly move the original outdoor ceremony inside so that we could keep the guests dry with the massive wall of windows still showcasing the forested backdrop. After the indoor ceremony the rain cleared and we gathered the immediate family and wedding party for photos and did a confetti exit down the original ceremony spot which was magical! Even though J had her heart set on a sunset sunset photo and the weather and skies cooperated, they chose to just be in the moment and enjoy the rest of the evening with their guests and we just continued to snap candids through out the rest of our time there capturing the fun, love and memories.
