About Me

Finding Inspiration in Every Person

I’m Christine — a Waterloo Region photographer, mom of three, coffee enthusiast (caramel macchiato? Always yes), and someone who truly believes the ordinary moments of family life are anything but ordinary.

Photography has been part of my life since I was 13, when I picked up my very first SLR camera. What started as a creative outlet quickly became a lifelong passion — one rooted not just in beautiful images, but in connection, storytelling, and preserving the seasons of life that pass far too quickly.

Today, I specialize in newborn, baby, and family photography, walking alongside families as they grow. Many of my clients began with engagement sessions and weddings over a decade ago — and now I’m photographing their third and fourth babies. That continuity? It’s one of the greatest honours of my life.

My Approach

My sessions are calm, child-led, and connection-focused.

With a background in social work (B.A., B.S.W.), I bring patience, emotional awareness, and a deep respect for each child’s personality into every session. I don’t rush children. I don’t force smiles. I create space for them to feel safe, seen, and celebrated exactly as they are.

Whether we’re capturing a sleepy newborn, a cake smash full of personality, or a busy family session outdoors, my goal is always the same:

To create a relaxed experience that allows real connection to shine through.
Because the magic isn’t in perfect poses.
It’s in the way your toddler reaches for you.
The way your newborn curls into your chest.
The way your family laughs together when something unscripted happens.

Why Connection Matters

Photos are not just for today.

They are for the version of you who will one day look back and whisper,
“I miss that stage.”

They are for your children, who will grow up and see how deeply they were loved.

Connection is what turns a photograph into a legacy piece. And that’s what I aim to create every time you step in front of my camera — images that feel like your family, not a staged version of it.

What You Can Expect Working With Me

Whether you’re a growing family or a local childcare centre or organization, here’s what you can expect:

✨ Clear communication and thoughtful preparation
✨ A calm, organized, and professional experience
✨ A child-led approach that prioritizes comfort and confidence
✨ Beautifully styled sessions with attention to detail
✨ Timeless, light-filled imagery
✨ Galleries delivered with care and intention
✨ Someone who genuinely celebrates your milestones with you

For organizations, you can expect streamlined processes, efficient session flow, and a positive experience that keeps children smiling and staff supported.

For families, you can expect someone who remembers your story — and feels like part of your journey.

A Little More About Me

I’m a mom of three. I love our trailer weekends. I thrive on planning and organizing. I believe in systems, coffee breaks, and being present for the moments that matter most.

In 2014, I left my career in social work to pursue photography full-time so I could be present with my own growing family — and help other families preserve theirs.

I don’t take lightly the trust you place in me.
It’s sacred work to capture someone’s story.

And I would be honoured to capture yours.
