Candid couple portrait during golden hour engagement session in the Fraser Valley

Consider me your new biggest fan and personal hype lady. I’ll fix your veil, gas you up before you walk down the aisle, and probably tear up behind the camera. For maternity sessions, I’m there to celebrate that glow and capture all the sweet, in-between moments before baby arrives. And on family days, I’m your honorary adventure buddy, running after toddlers, embracing the chaos, and preserving the magic between snack breaks and belly laughs.

Kind Words

"We absolutely loved our engagement shoot with Laura. From start to finish, the experience was relaxed, thoughtful and genuinely enjoyable. The photos completely exceeded our expectations and are images we will treasure for the rest of our lives.

Our wedding was overseas, so sadly we weren’t able to have Laura photograph the day, but we often say we wish we could have. Our engagement photos remain some of our absolute favourites and continue to stand out for their incredible quality. We are so grateful to Laura for giving us something so special, and we can’t recommend her highly enough!"

"Laura captured our maternity and newborn photos and we could not be happier with how everything turned out. My husband and I are not comfortable in front of the camera at all, but she made the whole experience so easy and fun, we barely felt like we were being photographed. Even our nervous rescue dog loved her! The photos came out absolutely stunning and better than we could have hoped. They were candid, beautifully lit, and full of genuine moments. The quality of her work is on another level so if you're looking for a photographer, we could not recommend her enough!"

Steph + Trev

"We had an amazing experience working with Laura for our photoshoot. We reached out on fairly short notice, and she was incredibly accommodating and flexible. From the moment we contacted Laura through the full session she made us feel completely at ease and provided clear, thoughtful direction throughout (something we definitely needed since we’re not the most natural or coordinated in front of the camera). Her guidance was easy to follow, never forced, and helped us relax and enjoy the session. The conditions changed throughout our session and she was quick to adapt to the moody skies and rain. The end result was a set of beautiful, natural photos that genuinely reflect us as a couple. We’re so grateful for the care, patience and professionalism Laura showed and would recommend her services to anyone seeking a photographer who knows how to bring out the best in real people in any weather or location scenario."

"Laura was such a pleasure to work with! She did both our maternity and newborn photos with our son, and made it such a peaceful and comfortable experience. The photos turned out wonderfully!"

Hillary + Harrison

"Laura is extremely talented. Her photos are beautiful and she is a joy to work with. She had the photos ready within a few days. Thanks Laura!"

Benita + Kevin

"Working with Laura was such a fantastic experience! From the moment we started the session, she was incredibly personable and chill, which made it so easy for our family to just relax and be ourselves.

We never felt like we were 'posing' for the camera; she has a way of making everything feel natural and comfortable, which really captured the true dynamic of our family. If you’re looking for a photographer who is professional but feels like a friend behind the lens, I can’t recommend Laura enough!"
