I have been a Family + Child photographer since 2011. I shoot with a Canon, specifically 5D Mark III or my 5D Mark IV & mainly the 50 or 24-105. I very rarely use flash, and prefer to shoot outdoors.
I generally photograph family and children's portraits, events and weddings. I love a strong cup of coffee, online shopping, pizza and chocolate.
Located in Glenwood Newfoundland, back 'home' after 17 years of living on the mainland. I am a Mom to three awesome kids. Carter, Kailey and Claire. Mama also to our dog Vader, and cat Lexi. Married to my handsome fella Chris, and being a military family for about 12 years, we are no strangers to uprooting our lives from time to time.
I was born in Ontario, but raised mostly in Newfoundland. I spent about five years in Nova Scotia and loved it so much. I've worked with hundreds and hundreds of families over the past 12 years in all three provinces, and I am still humbled every time someone books me for a shoot. I get to do what I love because of my clients, and I am eternally grateful.

"Working with Courtney was a wonderful experience from start to finish. She was extremely nice and worked so well with my two boys. I am so pleased with the results from our recent shoot and can’t wait to do it again. Thank you, Courtney!"

"While the requirements of military life have pulled my family far away from Courtney, our photos are a lasting reminder of the amazing skill and quality of her work. I have 2 rather difficult children to photograph, one being somewhat shy, and the other autistic, and not only does Courtney have them co-operating, smiling and laughing, but she is capturing something far beyond their smiles. She captures the essence of the children."

"And she strikes again...amazing pictures...we have been using courtney since my son has been born. She has shot much of our life moments. Courtney has also worked with my in home daycare children and is up for the challenge of equine an rider photo shoot. She has dropped everything to shoot with us and we love her for it. She has truly captured the essance of our lives."
