Centennial Beach Family Photos | Kuelen Family | Community Photography South Delta

I’m so excited to finally be posting this dreamy family photo session. Summer time, hands down, is the best time for family photos. The wildflowers are out and Centennial Beach is at it’s finest.

I met the Kuelen family in Bounrday Bay to start the shoot. Their outfit choice was my favourite, ever! Light, neutral colors always photograph so beautifully with my photography style. We played in the flower fields and the kids loved spending time with mom and dad. As the sun set, we made our way to Boundary Bay beach. The water was warm and I loved how by the end of the shoot the family were all knees deep in the ocean.

Thank you to the Keulen family for letting me take these photos for you. You guys are the best to take photos with! Hopefully we can do it again sometime soon :)

Billinger Family Photos in Boundary Bay || Tsawwassen, BC

I can’t think of a year where documenting your happy family memories has ever been more important. Time moves fast and can change in an instant Or, it can feel like a blur of days, weeks and months that are all the same, especially in 2020, the year of Covid. Which makes it super important to capture the moments on camera.

Remember the summer of 2020? The summer days felt like everything was almost back to normal, or maybe we were just getting used to our new way of life. It was great.

Looking back on these images, everything felt so soft and lovely and romantic, and I just loved how the Billinger family made one of my much loved photo locations totally their own. Carlie, Shawn and their beautiful golden haired daughter giggled, snuggled, laughed and tickled their way through this gorgeous family session,.

Thanks Carlie for asking me to take your family photos. I love shooting with you and your family. It is such a pleasure and I can’t wait to do it again sometime soon :)

Tsawwassen Newborn Photos with the Findlay Family

Lifestyle newborn sessions are my favourite! My goal is to capture all the snuggles, love and soft moments shared between a family in the first couple of weeks after baby comes home from the hospital. I had a perfect Saturday morning with the Findlay family after their beautiful baby girl Emery (LOVE this baby name!) came into the world!

I loved this session for so many reasons. First, Mom Kayla - Ann was amazing at preparing all the small details for the session that make such a BIG difference in photos. She had her hair and makeup done before the session, she brought two outfits, one casual and one a little more dressed up with added an amazing variety to their photo gallery and had a few different pattered swaddles that brought in amazing accent colors. Second, the dynamics between Mom and Dad was amazing! Both so photogenic and the way they moved together I really didn’t need to give much direction. They were both so relaxed infront of the camera and with each other. Lastly, baby Emerey was a DREAM baby to photograph! She slept for most of the session and when she was awake was not fussy, just wanting to be cuddled by mom and dad.

Mom and Dad looked happy, at ease and in love. Grandma arrived at the end of the photo session for some beautiful moment with her grand daughter and daughter.. I loved capturing the three generations all together.

Thank you to the Findlay family for allowing me to capture these special moments for you. I love shooting with you guys and look forward to doing it again this summer!

Sawrey Family Photos | Tsawwassen Family Photographer

Can you feel it?

The shift in seasons is here - the evenings are darker, the sun is cooler, and while the sun is setting there is a chill in the air. I can feel myself bracing for the winter time, but then, we have evenings like this. Evenings when the Sawray family had their family photo session at Centennial Beach that reminded me why I LOVE the transition to fall.

The evening air is crisp and clear which makes for the most beautiful sunsets. Gone is the summer humid haze as we welcome pink skies and beautiful reflections off the water.


The Sawrey family showed up to their photo session ready to love, laugh and enjoy their time together. We knocked off their classic portraits in no time and spent the rest of the time playing on the beach and letting themselves be their true selves. It’s not just the photos, it’s the memories that go with them that make these sessions so special.

Now, if you scroll down to the very last photo, this may be in my top 10 of all time favorite pictures I have EVER taken. The color, the connection and her eyes just make me love everything about it!

To the Sawrey Family, thank you for spending the evening at Centennial beach with me! Although it was our first time meeting, I feel like I’ve known you all for a while :) Thank you for fun moments and sharing some fruit growing tips with me :)

Centennial Beach Family Photos | Kwong Family | Community Photography South Delta

I met the Kwong family at Centennial Beach their photo session on a day summer was slowly moving into fall. It was such a pleasure to capture the special moments between this little family, there is something so special about photographing first time parents.

The weather was ideal for family photos. A soft pastel light that matched beautifully with their Ah-Mazing outfit choices!

The sky turned the most beautiful pastel blue at sunset. The perfect backdrop for this family to cuddle, laugh and enjoy their time together.

To the Kwong family, I loved taking these photos for you! Jessy, it was so nice to reconnect after all these years and meet the newest addition to your family!

Miller Newborn Photos | Lifestyle Newborn Photos

I’ve been a photographer almost 4 years now. My style has grown and I've adapted and love my job more and more every day. But the thing I love the most about being in business this long is photographing the same family more than once! I love to see a family growing in numbers and capturing milestone moments for them. Seriously, there is nothing better!

I first took photos for the Miller family after the arrival of their first daughter two years ago. So it was an absolute pleasure when they reached out to me to take at home newborn photos when their second daughter came into this world.

This was my first newborn photoshoot since the COVID-19 quarentine had ended. I was SO excited to be back doing newborn sessions again. I wore a face mask and had in my mind the whole time to keep a safe physical distance. When I walked into the Miller home, I was amazed to see how much older sister A had grown! She was a complete sweetheart and gentle with her new baby sister. Their baby was a little replica of big sister (genetics never sease to amaze me!). Baby A was the sleepiest little bundle of joy with the most amazing thick black hair. Both Mom and Dad were so welcoming and at ease with now being a family of four; it made my job a complete breeze. I loved their outfit choices, especially how it tied into their home decor. Just a side note - when choosing outfits for a newborn or family photo shoot, make them match your home decor. My wish is that you will have these photos printed and hung on your walls as art so it’s a good idea if they coordinate!

Thank you to the Miller family for welcoming me back into your home to take newborn photos for you. Your welcoming and kind manner makes my job fun, relaxed and reminds me of why I love this job - to connect with amazing people like you! You totally are nailing this family of four thing and hopefully I’ll see you around town one of these days.

Wells Family Photos | Centennial Beach, Tsawwassen

We had the Wells family photo shoot originally scheduled in Tsawwassen for March 21st. Due to a world pandemic, it was postponed. That feels like such a crazy sentence to write and I sometimes need to pinch myself that the past 3 months actually happened! It was a dark time for me and my business as Covid-19 hit the news, every one of my bookings was cancelled or postponed. At the time, I had no idea if the shoots would be postponed a couple weeks, a month or a year? Even when restrictions started to ease, would people want to book a family photoshoot with me? And thankfully the answer is yes! I think after being on lockdown for three months, people have seen the importance of their family unit and are ready to capture memories on camera. Also, Moms are now looking for an excuse to do their hair and put on mascara :)

I was so thankful when mom Lyndsay reached out to me and told me she was ready to have their family photos taken. We met up in Boundary Bay for their photos on a perfect May evening. The 'perfect May evening' was not in the forecast. I'm not sure if anyone else is noticing this but the Weather Network's predictions are just bananas these days! Changing constantly, always calling for rain and every single network is contradicting one other! I had been checking the weather constantly for the past 24 hours trying to see if we should cancel our shoot because of rain or move the time to make sure we have enough light (if you've shot with me before, you'll know I'm obsessed with light). Lyndsay (bless her!) was so flexible and trusted me to make the weather call for her. My mission was to find the best light to get them the best family photos possible!

We decided to go ahead with the shoot as scheduled, and I'm so happy we did. Despite the weather prediction, we had a perfect evening with little clouds to make for a beautiful sunset. Shooting with the Wells family was a pleasure, they are so lovely and natural in front of the camera. There were so many beautiful and candid moments created and we had the BEST colors at sunset. 

To the Wells family, thank you for holding your booking with me and taking the time to come out to Tsawwassen for your family photos. It was a pleasure to meet you guys and I really hope we can do it again in the future :)

MATHONY FAMILY PHOTOS | BEACH SESSION, TSAWWASSEN

Being a photographer who lives just outside of Vancouver, even if our town nickname is 'sunny Tsawwassen', I still have to deal with the fact that it rains. All. The. Time. Especially as a family photographer, I have to be uber flexible with rain checks because what little kid will last more than 10 minutes in a rainy photoshoot? None! The Mathony Family originally had their family photo session scheduled for October, which was rained out. We moved it to November and it was rained out again. At that point we decided to move it to the spring, and hoped the third time would be a charm.

We didn't completely escape the elements for their photo shoot, for it was the most WINDY day I've ever shot it. A day when all of the kite boarders were out in Boundary Bay. A day too windy for people to set up camp at the beach. Like seriously windy. 

I met the Mathony family in the parking lot and I noticed two things right away. Their amazing outfit choices. This year I'm seeing so much more color than past years and they had amazing bright color combinations that fit together beautifully. Second, they all have the most striking eyes! All bright and icy blue. 

When we started to shoot their family photos, I was amazed at how natural the whole family was in front of the camera. Both kids took direction beautifully and both mom and dad were hands on and super fun; the kids just totally followed suit. We shot in a field for the first while (because it was protected from the wind) before we went down to the beach. The second we were exposed on the sand, holy smokes, the wind just took over! To keep warm we had to keep moving. I felt more like a drill sergeant than a photographer as the wind was so powerful I literally had to yell directions to the family to be heard. Even with the crazy wind, both kids kept smiles on their face and laughed the whole time. By the end of the shoot, the sun peeked through the clouds to make for some beautiful lighting for our last set of photos. Right before both kids ran off the beach and back to the shelter of the car. 

To the Mathony family, thank you for meeting with me on the windiest night ever down at Centennial Beach. You guys were the ultimate troopers for battling the elements and keeping smiles on your face the whole time. I'd love to do it again sometime. Maybe in the heat of July or August on a night when there isn't a cloud in the sky and zero wind lol. But seriously, you guys are the best. Thank you!

Stanley Park Maternity Photos | Community Photography South Delta

I’m a Tsawwassen girl, and to be honest, I don’t often venture out of our neighbourhood for photo shoots. Saying that, when a client suggests we shoot at a new location I’m always game! A new location is like a new playground for a photographer. When taking photos somewhere new, it sparks your creativity and allows you to play with new light and landscapes. When beautiful momma to be, Ana suggested we take her maternity photos at Stanley Park in Vancouver, I was super excited! I asked my wedding planner sister Briar of Epic Events for suggested shoot locations in the area as she often does weddings at the Tea House and other Stanley Park venues.

She suggested 2nd beach, when I went to scout out the location, fell in love with right away. The reason I loved it for the maternity session so much was within a 5 minute walk, you went from a beautiful forest setting to a Vancouver beach landscape.

When I met up with Ana and Alex for their maternity photos, the first thing I noticed was Ana’s stunning dress choice and her flawless makeup. The gorgeous couple, and Ana’s perfect little baby bump made for such a dreamy team for the forest photos. As the sun was setting, we took a five minute walk and quick outfit change that brought us down to 2nd Beach for the second half of our maternity photo shoot.

Once again, Ana totally nailed her outfit choice with a soft pink dress that would compliment the sunset perfectly. At this point in the photo shoot we are all relaxed and having fun, which you can totally see through their photos.

Ana + Alex, thank you for choosing me to capture such a milestone moment in your lives. It was so wonderful meeting you two and thank you for allowing me to venture out of Tsawwassen to take your maternity photos!

Centennial Beach Family Photos | Tsawwassen, BC | Community Photography South Delta

I met up with Indy, Matt and there adorable son Adrian at Centennial Beach in sunny Tsawwassen for their family photos. I’m not sure if it was the time of day, the setting, Indy’s dress or ALL of the above, but the color tone of these photos are so magical. Well, almost as magical as Adrian’s smile throughout the shoot :)

Adrian honestly made me feel like the funniest person on the planet. He would laugh and smile at all my ‘jokes’, which included playing peek-a-boo, tickling him with a soft plant, making funny faces. As long as he was cuddling with his mom and dad he was a happy camper.

Indy and Matt, thanks for allowing me to capture your family photos. You guys have such a happy, fun little boy and you all were such a pleasure to photograph!

Tsawwassen Family Photo Session | Community Photography South Delta | Family Photographer

Last year, the Berglund family moved to BC. You would have never known this as you could tell they had a deep love for the beach, nature and the mountains. The perfect mix of a west coast family.

When I met the Berglund family at Centennial Beach, they were all very easy to talk to, good energy and very lovely to spend time with. We took some beautiful photos on a lovely evening. Everywhere we went that evening, the sun seemed to be following, making for beautiful backlighting. You could tell nine year old Kiera loved spending this quality time with her parents at the beach.

My favourite part of a family photo session, is when I give kids time to be themselves and show me a little of who they are. Kiera, totally just shone during this moment. As the sunset in Boundary Bay, she was doing cartwheels under a pastel sky with the mountains and city scape in the background.

To the Berlund family, thanks for spending the evening with me at Centennial Beach. Evenings like this, really make me love my job! Your family is a pleasure to spend time with, I hope you guys are loving BC and everything it has to offer :)

Diefenbaker Park Family Photos | Tsawwassen Family Photographer | Community Photography South Delta

From the moment I met the Malinek family in 2017 for a family photo session, I knew they were a special family. They are all kind and sweet and you can tell they all enjoy each other immensely. Fast forward a year and I was lucky enough to take their photos again.

When I arrived at Diefenbaker for their photo shoot, the first thing I noticed was Mom Ashili’s stunning red dress. I knew, at some point in the photoshoot, she would need to be twirling.

On every family photoshoot, I bring a white blanket for the families to cuddle on. I came to own the blanket after I noticed it at my moms house. The blanket is a unique white quilt and a perfect rectangle for families to sit on. The patch work is well made, it has served me well for the past couple years. My mom, who is an avid thrift store shopper, came across it a few years back at the Delta Hospice in Tsawwassen.

I pulled the white blanket out for the Malinek family to sit on during their family photoshoot. Ashli took one look at the blanket and noticed SHE was the one who made it! Ten years ago, she hand made that exact blanket, her initials were even hand sewn in the corner. Such a small world! She had given it to thrift years back. And here she was, with her family sitting on it.

To the Malinek family, thank you for spending the evening with me at Diefenbaker. You guys are always a pleasure to take photos for. I love seeing from year to year the way your boys grow into lovely little men. Ashli, thank you for making and passing along your beautiful blanket!

A Very Special Centennial Beach Family Session | Community Photography South Delta | Family Photos

“Tomorrow, they’ll be a little older than they were today. Today is a gift.”

I was first introduced to Sharon through my sister Briar. Briar and Sharon work together in the wedding industry. Sharon, however, for the past year has been on a leave from her job so she could be by her oldest sons side as he battled an aggressive form of brain cancer. 


Cameron, Sharon's seven year old son, in the past year has undergone numerous surgeries, along with chemo and radiation. When Sharon was with Cameron in the hospital, they made a list of things they wanted to do once they were out. For Sharon, family photos were at the top of her list.


I arrived to Centennial Beach in Tsawwassen 20 minutes before the session began and it was raining. It had actually been raining the past 2 weeks. The session was date sensitive as a key family member was only in town for a couple days. There was no rescheduling for weather. I pulled my umbrellas from my car, however, minutes before we began shooting the rain stopped.


The dynamic between the family was loving, kind and fun. Mom Sharon has an infectious smile and they all laughed super easily. Both boys, took to the water. Mid winter in Vancouver and they were jumping over the waves in their boots. The light broke through the clouds as we were finishing our session. It was a perfect afternoon.

To the Bulger family, your courage and love can be seen from miles away. Allowing me to capture your family photos has been a privilege. Thank you for allowing me to capture this special moment for you :)

WELCOME BABY MARLOWE | AT HOME NEWBORN PHOTOS | TSAWWASSEN | COMMUNITYPHOTOGRAPHY SOUTH DELTA

The cutest baby with the cutest name! MARLOWE! Love love love! I feel like I got lucky to be able to capture newborn photos for another DREAM baby in Tsawwassen. As a South Delta photographer I love connecting with families as they welcome a new family member home.

WILSON CENTENNIAL BEACH FAMILY PHOTOS | TSAWWASSEN PHOTOGRAPHER | COMMUNITY PHOTOGRAPHY SOUTH DELTA

Summer has seems like a distant memory here in Tsawwassen now that the rain has moved in. It was only a couple weeks ago I was watching the sunset at Centennial Beach with the Wilson family taking their photos. As a South Delta photographer I love the summer for family portraits but I am excited to be moving into the fall for some fall foliage.

It was a blast taking photos with the Wilson family in Boundary Bay. It was a perfect summer evening and the sunset was cotton candy skies. It was an easy breezy photo session. So much family love. The poses came as natural as all the laughs we had.

LADNER HARBOUR PARK FAMILY PHOTOS | COMMUNITY PHOTOGRAPHY | SOUTH DELTA

Ladner Harbour Park in South Delta has always been my go to fall photos. When the inquiring family asked for suggestions for a 'woods' look in South Delta, Ladner Harbour Park immediately popped to mind. The light coming through the trees was oh so dreamy it is now one of my favourite summer locations to take photos in Delta!

The family gifted their Grandma a photo session of her 5 granddaughters for Christmas. 5 girls ages 7-16, a photographers dream! The cousin connection these girls had made for a breezy, easy and loving session. Melt. My. Heart.

CENTENNIAL BEACH FAMILY PHOTOS | TSAWWASSEN PHOTOGRAPHER

Another beautiful night in sunny Tsawwassen for a family portrait session! I feel like I say it all the time, but I LOVE living here! Centennial Beach never disappoints for dreamy sunsets and crystal water - perfect for family photos. It is also a photographer bonus when the family shows up and the family is super adorable! 

KOCH FAMILY PHOTO SESSION | BOUNDARY BAY | SOUTH DELTA PHOTOGRAPHER

I met this family in the dyke parking lot between Beach Grove and Boundary Bay in sunny Tsawwassen. This parking lot is full of bikers, joggers and birdwatchers. I immediately identified the family as they all looked way to good to be going for a casual dyke stroll :)

We took a walk down the Boundary Bay dyke to fields close by for their family pictures. We enjoyed the next hour playing, laughing and having the kids cuddle up on Mom and Dad. The family dynamic was sweet and relaxed. We had local bunnies hopping around to keep the kids entertained!

To the Koch family, thank you for allowing me to take your family photos! I had such a great time and I hope we can do it again soon!
