Lots of questions. Lots of answers!

Can you do photos of my son or daughter?


School photos that are taken once a year are great, but they only show what the student looks like. Let's go beyond that with a session that includes their interests and highlights their personality!


Do I expect little kids to behave perfectly? Ah, no! There's not much I haven't seen, and I've been told my patience is amazing. We can do this, and you can leave smiling LOL

Do we have to be outdoors?


No, we don't! We live in one of the most beautiful parts of the world, but often studio photography will be a better choice.


I have a ground floor in home studio with washroom access just outside Truro, N.S. It's great for both people and their pets, and terrific in all kinds of weather!

What should we wear?


Hey, I bet you really do have something great to wear, and may just need a bit of help deciding. I LOVE going through the choices and advising as to what might look best given the location and time of day if we are outdoors and what will look best with our chosen backdrop if we are in the studio.


If you need some suggestions or just someone to help with your choices, I am here.

Do we get the files?


Yes, you get files that are sized to share perfectly online with each print that is purchased.


If, for some reason, you need larger sized digital files, those may also be purchased.


If you click on the image above, you'll find an article that explains the different sizes of files and how they can be used.

Can I have a professional head shot?


Yes! Personal photos aremore important than ever, and I have a quiet space that is just perfect for portrait making, or I can come to you if you'd rather have your environment as the background. Pets in some of your images are encouraged!


Whether you need one photo for a profile image or several to build your brand, I'll walk you through the process to make it as easy as possible.

Do you photograph active dogs? Mine might not stay still!


Say that like it's a good thing as it just means your dog is loving life! Your active dog is not a problem, and I can coach you in how to stand by your pup, with the leash on, to help them reset their focus for a few seconds. Seriously, seconds is all it takes!


Years of being owned by dogs, horses and cats make me aware of how they react and respond. Loving my own pets makes me realize how important print images will be for you.

(Fill in blank) hates having their picture taken. What can we do?


Having a camera pointed at you can be really weird and awkward, right? f you are like me, you have at least one family members/friend who would rather do almost anything else than sit through a photography session. Tell them I've got them!


Assure them that I can help them figure out where to put their hands, how to stand and all the other little annoyances that they may have faced in the past when faced with any kind of "picture day".
