About

I loved how at ease the whole session was. It was smooth and stress free with professionalism. There was no feel like we were in a hurry. Lisa captures the true heart and soul of her subjects. The whole process was very easy and with amazing moments to hold on to forever!

Meet your Photographer...

Capturing life’s most precious moments, especially with newborns, is something I hold close to my heart. As a mother of four, including two boys we adopted at 2 weeks and 4.5 years old, I know how important those early days are. I often wish I had photos from that time when they were still so small and new.

When my twin daughters were born, I had the chance to capture those fleeting moments—the tiny eyelashes, the way they curled up, fitting perfectly in the palm of my hand. Time goes by so fast, and these moments slip away in the blink of an eye. That’s why I’m passionate about preserving them through photography, so you can always look back with a smile and feel the warmth of those early days.

Photography has also been a part of my own healing journey. After struggling with infertility and the heartache that came with it, I never imagined I’d be able to celebrate baby bumps the way I do now. Maternity photography has allowed me to share in the joy of expecting families, something I once thought was out of reach for me. Now, I get to celebrate this beautiful stage of life alongside others, and it’s been truly fulfilling.

I also cherish hearing the incredible stories of how each family found their way to the little ones in their lives, no matter how unique or unexpected that journey may have been. Every family’s path is different, and it’s a privilege to be a part of capturing the love and joy at the heart of it all.

I feel honoured to meet so many wonderful families through my work and would love the chance to connect with yours. If you'd like to learn more about my journey to motherhood and photography, feel free to watch the video I’ve shared here.
