First, a quick intro.

Hi, I’m Laura.

With a press of a button (or tap of a finger), we can create a single image or video clip that can be filled with reminders of where we come from and the people, places and values that have shaped us into who we are.

It’s amazing really, isn’t it?

Think about one of your favourite images you love looking back on. Who is in it? Why does it mean so much to you?

These family photographs are excerpts of our lives, and when put together give us a visual history of those we have grown with, have loved and have lost.

Your family story is unlike any other, filled with your real moments of sadness, joy, and love. While images of these moments may seem insignificant to someone else, they hold value and meaning to you and that is what matters.

“Initially I was a little apprehensive having someone film our normal day but Laura made it all so easy and comfortable, after the first 10 minutes I barely knew she was there!”

Life can be stressful.
Finding the right family photographer or filmmaker for you doesn’t have to be.

I know it can be hard work finding the time to scroll through websites searching for a family photographer that fits your style, price range, and location. I’ll guide you through the what and whys of my work & approach.

My approach to both my family photos and films is a documentary style.

What exactly is a documentary style session?

Basically, there’s no posing. No direction. Just unembellished, honest moments of you and your family just as you are. 

I look to capture images that show connection, unique personalities and the ebbs and flows in your everyday family life. What, when, how you do things is completely up to you. You don’t have to organize a coordinated wardrobe, clean your house or even worry if your kids misbehave. I am there do document your real moments. Unless you signal to me you don’t want me to capture something, I hope to document your family and all the beauty and chaos that it includes.

All you have to do is just be you.

Why get photos or a film of your every day life?

While images of birthdays, communions, and big milestones are always lovely photograph, a lot of childhood is filled with routines. Morning and bedtime routines. Playtime in the backyard. School and extracurricular activities taxi runs. Weekend traditions. And, while it may be hard to see when you are in the middle of it all, these seemingly mundane activities are filled with little moments of connection. Fleeting glances that are exchanged or ways that they mimic you because you are their world. Moments they turn to you to be comforted because you have the hug or kiss that can cure their pain.

And these beautiful everyday moments that are happening in your life right now are worth capturing.

I want to create images that show your children how you loved them and how they loved you in big and small ways.

PHOTOS ARE MORE THAN JUST PHOTOS.

“I most enjoyed having a chunk of time dedicated strictly to family time. We prioritized family, had no other expectations, put away technology, and focused on each other. It was really nice!

A huge perk of this experience is having all family members in the picture. How great to see us all living life together, rather than having one of us behind the camera.”

-Kelly, mom of a 3 y.o, 1.5 y.o and 3 mo. old twins.
