You deserve to be in the frame—beautiful, present, and deeply seen.
There’s a reason we so often hear “the days are long, but the years are short.” When children enter our lives, time begins to move differently. The everyday moments - baby’s first laugh, a loose tooth, a quiet movie night on the couch - become charged with meaning, but they pass quickly.
In the swirl of motherhood, it’s easy to disappear. You document every milestone, every messy breakfast and golden-hour giggle, but rarely step into the scene yourself.
While we can’t press pause, we can preserve what matters. Through thoughtful, emotive photography, I help you bottle up the beauty in the chaos. Not just the milestones, but the in-between—the glances, the gestures, the ordinary magic that tells your family’s story.
I’m Tanya, a lifestyle family photographer creating emotive, light-filled images that feel like home. With a gentle, story-driven approach, I help you slow down and breathe in the season you’re in—creating timeless images that feel as real as the love behind them.
This isn’t about posing perfectly.
It’s about presence.
It’s about you.

"[Tanya] captured our family in the most joyful, happy, loving and gorgeous photos. She was patient and worked her magic on our very shy 3 year old who quickly felt at ease with her and ended up thoroughly enjoying the photo session! Tanya has an eye for beauty and suggested the perfect location for us to capture the photos."

"Tanya was so amazing to work with. She took the most beautiful pictures of my son and I. I truly can't wait till I frame them and put them on my wall. She captured amazing moments even when we didn't realize we were taking a photo. "

"Wow, we just got our images back from Tanya and they all turned out amazing. I would recommend her to anyone looking for an outstanding photographer... Her ideas were creative, the editing/lighting was beautiful and she was a joy to work with…she even got our two energetic boys to take some great photos. "

"[Tanya's] approach to the session was laid back, making us and our little toddler feel at ease. She was really good with our kiddo. When I saw the photo gallery, I couldn't believe she was able to capture such lovely pictures, amidst all the running and playing in the meadow."
