Lifestyle Family Photography
Emotive | Candid | Vibrant
Emotive lifestyle photography is about capturing genuine, unscripted memories that truly define you.
It’s the tiny toes and brushing the hair out of your children’s faces. It’s them holding your hand, feeling dirt, splashing water. It’s the joy in the in-between moments as they experience the world.
It’s capturing the candid expressions, embracing the imperfections and celebrating you — your natural beauty.
It’s showing your uniqueness, the raw and unfiltered emotions.
So let’s adventure and capture your story.
“Love Val’s work, her sense of style and her great eye for capturing genuine moments in a beautiful shot. The experience with her and the photos after are a testament to her great skills as a photographer. I would definitely recommend her for anyone looking for photos in and around the Calgary area.”

The Girl
Behind the
Camera
I started off my photography journey hiking to mountain tops and travelling with a point and shoot camera in tow. Years later, my passion became a career, and now I get to follow families through life, capturing their most important memories.
I will get to know you, learn to follow your cues and guide you with a strong attention to detail to make you feel comfortable, look your best and capture genuine photos that reflect the true beauty and uniqueness of your family. I am a very dynamic photographer and love creating images filled with lively interactions. Which is usually a hit with the kiddos since I am all about exploring and having fun for real, and none of that pretending to have fun for the camera!

This family session will make you dream of fall in Kananaskis Country. This wonderful mama also shares why spending time with her family in the mountains for their family photos was so much more than just photos.
Sunset in the Mountains
A gorgeous sunset family session on a warm summer night. This family was visiting Calgary and took advantage of their time here to have their family photos taken in Kananaskis Country.
Mountain Family Session
We did not let the torrential downpour stop us that evening and we were rewarded by the most beautiful foggy sunset during this lifestyle family photo session in the mountains.
