Family Portrait Sessions
Fun, authentic, and action-packed creative photography sessions for Amazing Families
"A photograph is more than just a moment frozen in time, it's a portal that takes us back to a specific place, feeling, and memory that we can relive again and again."
Life is fleeting. In an instant, the moments of today, become the memories of tomorrow. Whether you’re looking to preserve the indescribable magic of childhood, the compassionate love of grandparents, the story of your family right now, or if you just want some amazing family portraits, I would love to opportunity to chat with you.
Based in the breathtaking region of Southern Georgian Bay, I work with many families right near where I live, on the beautiful and quiet beaches of Tiny, Ontario. I also travel all through Ontario to Muskoka, Orillia, Newmarket, Collingwood, Wasaga, Barrie and the surrounding areas.
I am passionate about capturing both candid and posed moments, and believe that the best family portraits are those that tell a story. Whether you’re looking for a classic family portrait, a creative and unique photoshoot, or a mixture of both, I would love to help you create something truly special. Dedicated to providing an exceptional photography experience, I aim to create heirloom-quality family portraits that you and your family will treasure for years to come.
Family Portrait Session
Offering up to 1 hour of coverage, this session provides a gorgeous set of images showcasing the incredible and unique qualities that make your family one-of-a-kind. I live very close to the sandy beaches of Georgian Bay, so the session can be here or within 45 minutes driving of Tiny, ON, L0L2T0, without travel fees. I know lots of great locations in the southern Georgian Bay, Barrie, Wasaga, Collingwood, Midland, Penetanguishene, and Orillia areas, so if you need a recommendation, just let me know. I'm not afraid of doing what it takes to get the images you want. I've been in boats, waist deep in water, in an airplane, on ATV's and more.

Raw Files
Your raw files are the equivalent of a film negative. These are the files you want to use if you are doing any significant editing to your images. They are the files I use when doing any Professional edits. They are now available at an extremely attractive add-on price of $150 for a Standard Family Portrait Session.

All images are perfected by Mark before being printed at Phoenix Professional Labs in Toronto on professional photographic paper. I searched long and hard for the best print lab in Canada, and the quality is second to none. 3×5 $3.50, 4×6 $4.50, 5×7 or 6×8 $12.99, 8×10 or 8×12 or 10×10 $22.99, 10×15 $27.99, 11×14 or 12×12 $30.99, 12×14 or 12×18 $40.99, 16×20 $52.99.
