Family and Newborn Photographer in Vancouver BC
for families who value
authenticity
welcome
You crave authenticity.
You appreciate beauty.
You adore emotion.
And you’re looking for a family or newborn photographer in Vancouver.
Relax. You’ve found me.
We’ll talk about our kids. You will say they’re growing too fast. I will talk about the smell of a newborn’s head. We will laugh about arm rolls, and toothless grins, and giggles that come straight from the tummy.
We will both sigh and smile. I will probably tear up a little.
Then I’ll come and bottle up all those things in pictures for you. Every crazy, loving, ordinary, sweet, upside-down moment that tells the beautiful story of your family.
Real people. Real connection. Real emotion.
Let’s do this.

kind words from kind folks
“…we were blown away…”
We were blown away by our experience with Rochelle. Everything from the sessions themselves to the finished album turned out far better than our expectations. She made us feel comfortable. She’s so good at what she does.
“…she truly captured the essence of our children..”
Rochelle connected with my kids (one of whom is difficult to win over) instantly. She also put my husband and myself at ease with her relaxed and calm personality by explaining how lifestyle sessions worked (hubby even said ‘it was fun!?!? afterwards) The moments she captured will be cherished for decades to come as she truly captured the essence of our children at this exact moment in time. Their little toes, smirks and giggles. They grow up so quickly and I’m thrilled to have these images to look back on.
“…we were able to relax…”
Rochelle was wonderful to work with. Being only 2 weeks into being a new mom, she helped settle my anxieties about what to expect from the photo session. My husband and I felt very comfortable in her presence and we were able to relax and feel totally normal while being photographed. We wanted photographs that would capture a moment in time of our family and she did this beautifully.
