Pure Natural Portraits

Working with Stephanie was a wonderful experience from day one. Once we had selected a location (several to choose from), she helped with finalizing my family's outfits (with backup outfits just in case).During the actually shoot, she was amazing! We did several posed and natural pictures. She even got a few wonderful shots of my children playing and being themselves. She works wonderfully with children and was able to get my daughters to smile and laugh. We felt completely comfortable with her (picked up a few new jokes too).At our ordering appointment, she had selected such wonderful shots, it was hard to choose just one (we picked about 15). There were many options for displaying our pictures from frames to photo albums, and even cards.We will certainly be using her services again for future photos.

Stephanie is kind, professional, and so talented! I did my maternity photoshoot with her. What a wonderful experience both myself and my husband had. The studio is cozy, and just perfect! Stephanie has a collection of dresses that you can wear during your photoshoot. I chose two beautiful dresses that worked perfectly with the chosen backdrop. She made us feel comfortable throughout the whole process. We our in LOVE with our pictures! We highly recommend her.

I have worked with Stephanie for both headshots and back to school family photos of my two older children. Each time she was a consummate professional. Her client contracts and guidelines are clear and concise. She operates with a wonderful blend of attention to detail and artistry. We were very pleased with her work. She adhered to every promised timeline and delivered above expectation each time. Thank you, Stephanie!

Stephanie was so great to work with. She was so kind and gentle with our baby girl, and so sweet to our toddler who joined for a few photos. Stephanie has a great attention to detail and her photos really capture true beauty. It was very hard selecting what photos to purchase because they were all so beautiful. Stephanie is talented and knowledgeable, I would highly recommend her. We will cherish our artwork forever.

Stephanie is so caring, professional, and talented. Her studio and supplies are gorgeous! I hired Stephanie to take professional headshots and she ended up photographing my toddler for me too <3 she was kind and patient, and I was super happy with the results! Highly recommend her!

Stephanie was lovely to work with. She was very knowledgeable and professional. She handled my 5 week old son with such care. The photos came out beautifully and I will treasure them forever. Thank Stephanie for creating lasting memories for my family.

Stephanie has taken photos of all 4 of my kids, and I found her to be efficient, brilliant with staging/designing, gorgeous props, and a truly likeable person who puts you at ease with her calm, professional demeanour. If you’d like photos of the highest quality, Stephanie will capture them beautifully. Highly recommend.

Stephanie is an outstanding portrait photographer! Her work captures her subjects uniqueness and then adds in her artistic touch! Her wall art and heirloom product options are of the highest quality. I can't imagine a better person to work with for newborn, family and child portraits in the Ottawa area! Highly recommend!

Stephanie was a delight to work with. As new parents, it was great to hire someone so knowledgeable about babies! We felt completely comfortable with her and she was so gentle with our tiny boy. Diaper changes, feeding time, crying spells—they weren’t stressful at all because of Stephanie’s relaxed and understanding nature. The photos were all beautiful in the end and it was tough to narrow down which we wanted to buy! We also bought some canvas prints of our favourite photos and they’re incredible quality. Highly recommend!

Stephanie is a true professional artist. You really only get one shot at newborn photos, so I was very careful to research the person who would have the responsibility to do this for our second and last baby. HOLY! I couldn't be happier with our photos and prints, we got the family and newborn session done, she was so easy to work with that my 4 year old actually asked to have more photos taken! She knows the perfect angle for your face to look skinny, not show wrinkles or dark circles under your eyes, and somehow my husband looks 10 years younger (pre-edit!!).She is a great communicator, laying out the process from the start, explaining that she is a full service photographer (yes they are more expensive than ones who just send you digital copies, you get what you pay for!).What did full service mean to me? She has the studio set up with all different props and outfits for both you and the baby, she spends as long as it takes to get the photos you want and accounts for feeding times, fussy baby etc. This was so important to this tired mama, I had very little to do ahead of time, other than get my nails done! During the session there was no rush or disruptions. We were there for 4 hours, she had the baby asleep 95% of the time, and planned it so my husband and 4 year old could leave and go play at a park nearby after their photos, knowing when they needed to return. It gets better when the photos were ready. First, she set the proper expectations for delivery time, and beat it. When we went for our viewing appointment Stephanie had all the pictures printed that we'd chosen so we would have a true idea of their quality. She also had several examples for cubes (I bought 2!!), and different framing and photo book options that you could see in person. No guessing, no surprises.Stephanie provides an exceptional service for her clients, I would absolutely use her again, these photos will be on display in our home for decades to come. Thank you!!!!
