“If you need a photographer for any reason Shayna is your girl! I am so happy to have come across her page a few years ago and have now had her capture several of our family milestones. As someone that is no always comfortable in front of the camera, Shayna does an amazing job making you feel at ease, you honestly forget that you are doing a photoshoot! Book a session with Shayna and you will never be disappointed”

Series of romantic and family portraits on a film strip background, featuring couples and a mother with a child in outdoor settings.
Four romantic photos set in a filmstrip: a couple walking on a path, a couple kissing close-up, a bride and groom in a scenic outdoor setting, and a woman holding a child in a natural setting.

 “Just stop looking for another photographer because Shayna is the best. The photos she took for my engagement pictures bring so many emotions when I look at them. She is so passionate about her work and it shows. I didn’t think such an exciting time in my life could feel any better, but the moments she has captured truly show how deeply in love my partner and I are. Thank you for making this journey such an incredible one and I cannot wait for you to capture all the exciting and important events to come in our lives.”

Family Photography

Family photography has been the heart of my business and one of my absolute favorite sessions! As an Edmonton family photographer, there's something magical about capturing those precious moments between parents and children that will become treasured memories forever.

I specialize in creating relaxed, fun environments where your family can truly shine. When you book Edmonton family photos with me, I bring my natural ability to connect with kids and make them giggle. Having raised three children of my own, I know exactly how to be just silly enough to keep little ones entertained while sneaking in those perfect candid smiles you'll cherish.
