    Couple & Engagement

    Relaxed images of your relationship, guided in order to keep you looking rad but not stiff or posed. Natural, genuine, flattering. I will make you laugh and maybe tear up, and in-between I’ll get some incredible shots.

  • Maternity & Parenthood

    Wherever you are in your parenthood journey (awaiting, surviving, embracing, celebrating, or more) I am here to capture where your family is at, at this moment, in this season. Usually with a westcoast backdrop but I welcome in-home session too. Oh and I have two kids so if it’s wild and loud or shy and weepy, I’ve seen it all and embrace it all as part of your story.

    Birth & Newborn

    The start of your biggest adventure yet - and I get to capture it! Indoors or outdoors, immediately or after some time, cute outfits or not, however you like it I will be there to help document these fleeting and precious (and hard, and wonderful) moments.

Let’s make an everyday legacy.

Why choose Lo & Behold Photo Co?

More Reasons

I offer a rad hybrid method (crafted over 13 years of shooting portraits) that guides you through what many anticipate will be an awkward experience. Nope! I will put you all at ease, hone in on your connections and personalities, and offer lightly guided poses to help you along. End goal is images that are genuine and intentional but an experience that is unforced, easy, and relaxed.

Kids? Bring ‘em. I have a rambunctious toddler and a neurodiverse big kid - I roll with the chaos. Melt downs? Bring ‘em on. Snacks? Def bring ‘em! Truly though I offer a child-led approach to photographing kids, allowing room to explore, incorporating their ideas, getting more documentary shots alon the way - but always getting some of those more ‘classic’ group shots too.

Pets? Bring ‘em! Hobbies? Bring ‘em! Bring your whole life, let me sort out how to capture it.

Always Easy

I want it to be easy, fun, and natural. I work hard to make everyone feel at ease, even laughing and relaxing so that their true colours can show through. No stiff poses here, though I can guide you into flattering positions and moments. Think more about me encouraging you to interact with each other, ease into the process, and find joy in between frames. The end result is images you not only love the look of, but feel genuinely reflect how you feel about each other.

Always Variety

I bring my documentary background to seek out a variety of compositions for you to choose from - wide or tight, laughing or focused, scenic or intimate, classic or artsy, big scenes or small details. Then it’s your choice.

Gently Guided

While I do not do stiff poses, I also don’t leave you hanging. I know it’s awkward to be photographed! I feel it too when it’s my own turn in front of a lens. So I am here to guide you - but think prompts over poses, tall tales to get you laughing or interesting questions to get you talking, and little actions to keep you moving, natural, and connected.
