Hi, i'm Stef!
It’s funny how life unfolds. About 15 years ago, I spent most of my time behind the lens capturing wildlife and landscapes. I sold prints, cards, and calendars both online and at local markets. I’d occasionally photograph family and friends too—usually as heartfelt gifts.
But life has a way of reshaping us. After having a couple of babies, living with and caring for my grandma through her journey with dementia, and simply growing through the seasons of life, I’ve developed a deep love and appreciation for portrait photography. I can't express how important photos are.
There’s something incredibly special about the joy people feel when they receive their images—it truly never gets old.
If a fire ever came through and I could only grab one thing from my home, without hesitation, it would be my photos. They hold everything.
I'm a country girl at heart, living in a charming old character home tucked away in the forest of Coombs on Vancouver Island. Raising our two young kiddos surrounded by nature.
We’ve had quite the hobby farm over the years—chickens, ducks, turkeys, goats… you name it. These days, though, we’re focused on creating memories and giving our kids (and ourselves) the chance to explore all the beauty the world has to offer.
Some of my favorite things? Gardening, cooking, and taking the kids on bike rides and adventures. Oh, and wine and chocolate—my happy place, whether the skies are grey or full of sunshine!
Cant wait to meet you!
Would love to hear from you!
