Collingwood Multi-Family Photographer
Photographing families in Georgian Bay and the surrounding area is fairly new to us but we have had the pleasure of capturing families at wonderful venues such as Overlook Park, Collingwood downtown, Bear Estate waterfront, Delphi Park, Peasemarsh Park, Lora Bay Golf, Thornbury and Meaford downtowns.
We specialize in capturing moments you didn't even know happened with your family. I am a journalistic photographer that capture the emotions, the reactions, the laughter and the tears throughout the entire session. We also capture stunning portraits incorporating your venue or landscape.
If you are looking for a nice, efficient family photographer who can lightly direct you for the best photos then you've come to the right place.
Editing Style
Our post-processing enhances photographs in a classic, non-distracting way. We believe classic processing will look amazing long after fads have passed. Our black and whites are dynamic and crisp, and our colours are rich and vibrant with a film like quality.....classic and timeless. And while we think that prints are the best way to enjoy your photographs, we believe that your photos should be stunning whether you order prints or not — which is why we individually process each and every photo you get from us.
Top Tips for a Successful Portrait Session
BEFORE YOUR SESSION
Now that you've decided to book your session with FMP, you can expect a personal experience, from the beginning to the end! Before we even get together, we have processes in place to ensure that you are receiving the experience you want and the products you expect out of your portrait session.
Upon inquiry, you will be sent an email with a booking proposal that will outline all our collections all in one place so it's easy to compare. The appropriate booking contract is included. You will then receive our online questionnaire to get the ball rolling! The contract outlines all terms and conditions and is designed to help you understand exactly what your package includes before committing to the transaction. The questionnaire will gather information to help me get a better idea about your vision, purpose, wants, and needs for your session. The location will then be determined by the type of session you are interested in.
Once booking forms and fees have been received, you will be sent a tips email to help your session go as smoothly as possible. You will be given a session date for your portrait session as well as a second date for weather cancellations.
A day or two prior to your session, you will receive a courtesy reminder email from me. At this time, I will be confirming the time and location with appropriate addresses.
The day of your session will be laid back and fun! You can expect your session to last anywhere from 30 minutes to 1 hour depending on your family at the time.
AFTER YOUR SESSION
The day after your session, you will receive an email with all the details on when to expect your images.
Within 1 week you will receive a SNEAK PEEK

PROOFING GALLERIES
Depending on your wish list and your chosen collection, this is when you'll receive a LINK to download your images, order prints and wall art.
You get to do this all from the comfort of your home via your smartphone or computer.
OUR STYLE
I photograph family sessions in a relaxed way at a location of your choice.
Families hire me to come by when the entire family is there for events such as reunions or birthday parties. Most families want their images captured at home and leave the location and backdrops up to me. Local family sessions last approximately 1 hour and then you can continue on with your family gathering.
