A little bit about my photography & me
Hello! My name is Daphne, and yes, like from 'Scooby-Doo'. I am a lifestyle photographer located in the GTA (Greater Toronto Area), Ontario, Canada! I LOVE the outdoors and admiring the beautiful nature created around me, but you can also find me curled up in a blanket watching my favourite movies, or playing chess with my husband!
Like most photographers, this started off as just a hobby but has developed into a much loved career. I went to school for photography where, to be honest, I fell in love with product photography. Visual arts was always my favourite subject in school, and I just absolutely love the creativity and art that goes along with making product photos! But, with lifestyle photography you get to apply that creativity and art to people and have the amazing reward of joy when they see their photos.
Most people's first thought about photography is "That's so easy!", but I am not just your photographer. I am your hype person, your time manager and schedule coordinator, organizer, and your friend!
My personal style features lots of vibrance and soft colours for a warm and happy feel from your images. I like to think it's about creating memories and capturing moments, not simply taking a photo. It's making still small moments from a fast paced life.

ARE YOU READY TO MAKE SOME MEMORIES?
For me, photography is not just about capturing a moment in time, but making a whole memory. I want you to be able to look at your photos and smile, hearing the laughter and feeling the joy from that time. Whether it's a family shoot, engagement, wedding, or just for fun!

"For our wedding, my husband and I were convinced by our parents to hire a photographer and found Daphne through a friend. I am so glad that we found her! In just a short period of time Daphne made us feel like professional models with the ease that she was posing us, our family and friends are amazed in particular with our couple photos. Daphne is friendly, professional, and flexible. Right after the ceremony it started raining and she was quick to take control to stage and take the important photos we wanted. She made us feel relaxed (on a very stressful day!) and found inspiration for a good shot in every location of our venue. Very pleased with how the photos turned out. We can't narrow down which ones to frame "
