Montreal & Ottawa Photographer | Creative Portraits, Intimate Weddings & Documentary Family Photography

Enchanted Portraits - explore creative portrait sessions

Fine-art and storybook-inspired portraits, in Montréal and further afield.

For the imaginative, the curious and anyone who wants something a little different.

You don't need to know how to pose, have a creative idea or feel particularly comfortable in front of a camera. You just need to come as you are.

Expressive, atmospheric portraits that bring together personality, feeling and a little imagination. Some sessions are playful and whimsical, others are intimate, moody or quietly unconventional. Each one is an opportunity to create something that feels personal and entirely your own.

Whether you arrive with a whole idea in mind or simply love the thought of seeing yourself in a different light, there's room for both.


Little Story Tellers - Kids portrait photography

For parents who want to see their child's imagination come to life, and give them photographs that feel like something straight out of their favourite book.

Think little adventures, curious characters, woodland magic and portraits that capture both the wonder of being a child and the personality of the little person in front of my camera.

No asking for smiles, sitting still or saying cheese. Instead, we create an environment where children can be themselves, explore and get lost in the experience. The result is something imaginative, personal and made to be treasured for years to come.

Family Stories - documentary family photography

For the families who want to remember it all.

Documentary photography photography for parents who know that the little things often become the memories that mean the most. The morning cuddles, the familiar chaos, little hands reaching for yours, favourite games and the everyday rituals that make your family yours.

No matching outfits, forced smiles or carefully arranged poses. Just your family, being yourselves, in the places where your life unfolds. I take a gentle, unobtrusive approach, making space for real interactions, all the in-between moments and the connections that make your family unique.

Whether at home, out exploring Montréal or somewhere a little further afield, these sessions are about preserving what life feels like right now, before everything changes again.


Julia approaches her photography with incredible warmth and patience. A process that can feel vulnerable and uncertain was imbued with authenticity and sincere joy. She photographed our maternity photoshoot, and the joyful magic we felt during the session was captured through her lens. The photos are remarkably special - everyone who has seen them has commented on the sincere energy they evoke. Julia truly sees you through her lens and the photos demonstrate that. Looking forward to working with her again!
