If you’ve ever wondered if it’s possible to get a mountain backdrop for your wedding photos here in Nova Scotia… it is! Having a unique winter landscape backdrop was important to Cristy and Andrew, so after some careful research, we planned a road trip to Chéticamp to capture some bridal portraits right in the heart of the Cape Breton Highlands.
Read MoreIt was such a pleasure creating these family portraits for Melissa, Daniel, and cutie pie Harper (who did SO well, even though it was freezing!) at their new home together in Sackville, Nova Scotia. All of these were taken in their own backyard! Winter may be on its way out here in Halifax, but I’ve been enjoying shooting in the snow over the past few months. There’s just something special about that white fluff that makes for some incredible moments!
Read MoreAllie and Justin’s big day had gone through some major changes before it could happen - including changing the date and venue! Instead of their original plan, this wonderful couple said their vows in their own backyard in Dartmouth, Nova Scotia this fall, which they had spent the summer revamping to create a beautiful space for their guests. They created such an inviting, intimate environment and I loved how cozy and personal it was (I was pretty excited about the relocation - they’re both plant aficionados like me so I was thrilled to get a peek at their collection)!

Read MoreBreanna and Ryan’s wedding at The Farm at South Cove in Lunenburg, Nova Scotia was an absolute dream to be a part of! I had been dying to shoot at this venue since it opened, so when they booked, I definitely did a little happy dance. With only a few weeks of planning (seriously - they pulled this together in roughly 3 weeks!), they organized the most amazing day to share with their closest friends and family. Click through to see some of my favourite photos from their wedding day.
Read MoreWinter may be well on its way, but this beautifully sunny October engagement session is making me feel warm and cozy! Morgaine and Justin met me at my favourite Halifax beach (Crystal Crescent) for their shoot, and just as I had hoped, the light was perfect. I love the small red, autumnal accents in the tall grass that happen in the fall, and the sunsets here CANNOT be beat. Read more to see more of their bright and glowy session.
Read MoreToday’s blog post features someone near and dear to my heart - my very own momma!
When my mom asked me to take some photos of her, I knew I had to give her the very best experience possible. I enlisted Jennifer Murphy Beauty for glam, rented the Many Hats Studio for a few hours, and picked up a new backdrop for the shoot, all ready for when she finished her hair appointment at Team Orlando Hair Studio. An extra huge thank you to Jennifer for making my mom feel like a superstar! Doesn’t she look absolutely stunning?!
We had so much fun during the session, and I feel incredibly lucky that I could capture some beautiful images of someone I love so much. Here are some of my favourites!
Read MoreLike most of my 2020 couples, Tabatha and Connor’s original wedding date was a no-go. They were supposed to tie the knot at the end of May at the gorgeous Lord Nelson Hotel but had to postpone their big celebration until next year. However, they didn’t let that keep them down - they actually said their “I do’s” with a JOP on their original date by themselves!
We got together at the stunning Grand Pré Wines in Wolfville, Nova Scotia for a bridal session to celebrate their secret nuptials and I couldn’t be happier with what we created. Not only did we have some beautiful light and lush vines to shoot in, but we were surprised with a gorgeous Valley sunset just before we left, which ended up giving us some of my favourite images! Scroll through to see some of the top images from our session - countdown is on for their Halifax wedding in May 2021!
Read MoreLike many couples who planned to tie the knot this year, Kaitlin and Brock had to make the difficult decision to postpone until 2021. This didn’t stop them from celebrating in their own way this year - I met up with them on their way to a camping trip in Cape Breton on their original wedding date in July, and finally got to shoot my first engagement session of the year!
We created some magic at the Herring Cove trails just outside of Halifax - read more to see some of my favourites from their session.
Read MoreA little bit of rain (okay, maybe some downpours) didn’t stop this beautiful wedding in Annapolis Valley from going ahead! Lily and Jackson said their vows in Lily’s parents backyard in Grand-Pré (right next to the grounds of Domaine de Grand Pré, who were kind enough to let us use their winery for some wedding photos).
In an intimate setting of 16 people, you could really feel the love surrounding this sweet couple - and the rain held off enough for us to get photos with all of their guests! Lily & Jackson also introduced me to the View Park, which was an absolutely stunning backdrop for some of their couple’s images.
