A photo session should be more than snapping a few perfectly posed images for your Christmas card! My goal for every session is to only capture your family as they are. No fake, perfectly curated "say cheese" moments- only real, authentic emotions, smiles, laughs, and hugs.
The goal is to create a gallery of real frozen moments that you can look back on, will trigger a tear of joy and make you say "oh my gosh, I remember when she use to do that!", "look at how tiny he was!" and "I miss those days..."
Enjoy a laid back unstressful experience
I understand how unpredictable little ones can be, so I let them take the lead during our time together, ensuring a natural and enjoyable experience for everyone.
No forced poses here—I focus on the real, heartfelt interactions that make your family uniquely yours.
I don't watch the clock during our sessions. We take the time we need to capture your family's story without feeling rushed.
Every photo that meets my high standards is yours to keep, beautifully edited and ready to be cherished—no extra costs or hidden fees.
Whether you prefer a fully styled session, a touch of guidance, or a come-as-you-are approach, I'm here to accommodate your wishes and make your vision come to life.
As a mother myself, I know the joys and challenges of wrangling little ones. I create a comfortable environment where your family's true spirit can shine.
From our initial chat to the final gallery delivery, I pour my heart into every step to ensure your experience is seamless and memorable.
"Each time it amazes me that Elaina captures the pictures she does! At our family picture session my daughter was not being the smiley baby you want in your family pictures but Elaina still caught them between cries! She is super sweet and easy to work with, she knows what she's doing and gives guidance for posing! I highly recommend her and can't wait to continue to have her catch all these wonderful memories for my little family!" -McKensy
"Elaina was phenomenal to work with and my kids had a blast following her instructions on pictures!! Very quick to respond to my questions about outfit colors and the pictures turned out amazing! We will be booking again for any picture needs!" -Tereza
I had such an incredible time with Elaina this morning at the Tulip Festival. She made shooting at 5:45 in the morning so FUN! She’s incredibly easy to work with, has a speedy turn around process, and is truly just a ray of sunshine. I cannot wait to work with her again -Michelle
