Not to put ideas in your head, but a cute motel, your favourite person and absolutely no wedding-day fuss sounds pretty good to me. 😉

🎉HAPPY 8th STOMA-VERSARY OLIVIA🎉

If you’re wondering what the heck a Stomaversary is, let me explain! Once a year on the anniversary of getting my ileostomy I celebrate how I’m still earth-side and all my ostomy given me.

8 years ago, I was fighting for my life. My organs were failing and my surgeon wasn’t sure if I would make it off the table. I remember my surgeon letting Rossi in so I could say bye, then I hugged my mom and Hailey not knowing if I’d ever see them again.

But I did, I saw them. I hugged them, I saw Ed Sheeran with Hailey and have made so many more memories since.

Living with an ileostomy isn’t always easy. There are leaks, bowel obstructions, and adhesions that caused me to have additional surgeries.

No matter how challenging life with an ostomy can get; I’m alive.

Since getting Olivia (my stoma) I …
🩷Had 8 surgeries.
🩷Became single mama to twins! Who are 3 now.
🩷Finished another diploma & opened my private practice.
🩷Met my sweet sweet Robyn
🩷Said goodbye to Rossi, but hello to Gibson
🩷Still have my WMICT (IYKYK)
🩷Found happiness within myself and outside of a romantic relationship for the first time (it’s been 1.5 years 🙌🏻).
🩷MET HANSON (now the girls need to)
🩷Lived

Happy Stomaversary Olivia.
You saved me.

Please leave any birthday wishes for Olivia below 👇🏻

Embrace the excitement before your wedding day - consider adding a bridal session to your package. You can have a gorgeous, dedicated session in your wedding dress (or maybe even boudoir attire!).

It's perfect for syncing up with your hair and makeup trial if you haven't paired it with your engagement photos yet!

Enjoy the flexibility this option offers! ✨

Maternity portraits aren’t just photos they’re a way of honoring a season that passes far too quickly.

Your body is doing something incredible right now. It’s easy to get caught up in how you feel day to day; tired, uncomfortable, not quite like yourself and completely miss how beautiful this chapter truly is. Maternity sessions give you a chance to slow down and actually see it.

This is the beginning of your baby’s story.

Years from now, your child will look back at these images and see where it all started. They’ll see how loved they were before they were even born. And you’ll remember what it felt like to carry them — the anticipation, the connection, the quiet moments before everything changed.

So many moms tell themselves they’ll wait until they “feel better” or “look more like themselves.” But this is you: strong, growing, creating life. And that deserves to be documented.

Maternity portraits aren’t about being perfect. They’re about being present.

Whether you want something soft and natural, intimate and emotional, or bold and powerful. Your session should reflect you. This is your story, your motherhood, your moment.

And here’s the truth: most moms regret not doing maternity photos… but no one regrets having them.

If you’ve been on the fence, take this as your sign 🤍
Let’s create something meaningful together — something you and your family will treasure forever.

Now booking maternity sessions. Limited spots available.
