One Person. One Story

I’ve been “the girl with the camera” for as long as I can remember—always the one pausing the moment to quietly photograph it. 

Creating images has never just been a hobby for me; it’s the way I make sense of people and their stories. I’m drawn to faces, especially the small, honest expressions that live in the eyes.  My work leans in close, focusing on character, emotion, and the little details that make a person unmistakably themselves. I began photographing clients in 2008 and have spent years steadily growing, experimenting, and educating myself.  As a self‑taught portraitist, I’ve developed a signature alternative style that doesn’t follow every rule, but always serves the person in front of my lens. 

About five years ago, the studio space I was working from flooded and my business had to pause. Stepping away was heartbreaking, but it also gave me time to reset, refine my vision, and decide what kind of work truly lights me up. This year, I’m reopening Studio Couture with a fresh start and years of experience behind me—more focused than ever on creating intimate, expressive portraits for the people of Cold Lake, Alberta. Whether it’s a child’s portrait or a modern headshot, sessions are relaxed, guided, and by appointment only. I handle the posing and light, so you can simply show up as yourself and leave with images that feel genuine and beautifully polished.
