I don’t think I can trust anyone else.
Wow! Every single photo is absolutely amazing. I don’t have words to tell you how much these pictures mean to us and how happy we are with them. We knew they would be good, but you exceeded our expectations. Thank you so much! I am so grateful you have been the one to capture our special moments. We love the style of your photographs, it is timeless.

CALGARY FAMILY PHOTOGRAPHY WITH HEART
Life is what happens between big milestones and perfectly staged, everyone in their best dress moments. Our mission is to see beyond the surface and create meaningful images that portray the infinite beauty and wonder of family units. This is not your run of he mill family mini session. We are proud to offer a full service experience dedicated to truly getting to know your family and capturing all the expected beauty but also the in-between nuance and subtleties that often go unnoticed. Mischief, curiosity, excitement, laughter or tears may all be part of the journey and are equally beautiful. Our approach is fluid and organic - going beyond static stands and forced, generic smiles to convey the beautiful story, honest moments and dynamics of your family. Walk away with images that are full of heart and are perfectly imperfect just like us.
See your family in a new light – with beauty and reverence for the un-staged, where the seemingly ordinary becomes the extraordinary
KIND WORDS FROM CLIENTS

Brooks Family
Right from the beginning, I knew it was going to be a great experience. The care, communication, and attention to detail put into getting to understand your clients before even getting behind the camera speaks volumes. I was quite stressed about the session. We have two large, loud dogs and generally I do like like having my photo taken. You put our whole family at ease and made the session fun and easy.
Although I could go on about the process, the end product far exceeded our expectations. We weren’t sure about whether to get the album and are so glad we did. And again, the help and communication you provided post session was above and beyond. Thank you for capturing what is one of the most treasured moments in our lives.
We can’t wait to work with you again.

I cannot over state how happy we were with our experience. Having been disappointed from previous experiences with professional photographers, I was apprehensive trying to find the right person to capture my maternity and newborn photos. Cedna’s demeanor, professionalism, vision, communication, and ability to deliver a polished finished product that exceeded my expectations, is second to none. I will treasure the moments she so perfectly captured, forever.

MOTTA FAMILY
I have wanted to do a family session for quite some time and it always seemed to be forgotten or left to another month, year. 2020 was a challenging year with Covid and other health issues so it was time to quit letting time pass us by. The kids enjoyed the photo session and I cannot say enough THANK YOUs for the work put in to make sure they were comfortable in this new experience. We have been thrilled with our portraits and family pictures. Cedna is a special one. She always goes the extra step to not only make sure that you are comfortable with the process but that you are happy with the work she has done. My wall has never looked better and everyone that has seen our photos comments on how great they are.
Thank you. You are amazing.

We are not chasing locations, we are chasing emotion and truth.
