Sunset Sessions


Warm, storytelling photography at golden hour - for families, maternity, and couples.


There’s something really magical about photographing people at sunset. The light is soft, warm, and flattering; kids relax; parents slow down; and everything feels a little more cinematic.


My sunset sessions are unhurried, playful, and designed for people who want natural, heartfelt images filled with connection and movement. Whether you’re celebrating your family, expecting a baby, or documenting your story - this is the session where we take our time and create something truly meaningful.


You’ll get the full experience in this session: relaxed family photos, sweet parent–child combinations, individual portraits of the kids, and more candid, documentary-style moments as the session naturally becomes more playful. The sessions are fun. We play games, get silly, splash in the water, balance on logs, or you can bring along a favourite game to play. I provide prompts and guidance throughout the session and capture the natural expressions and interactions that unfold. Think of your session as more of time spent together on a family outing, as opposed to a traditional photoshoot. My goal is for you to enjoy the experience of having memories captured!
