I was looking for a photographer who could take my family Christmas photo and I stumbled upon Claire. My family and I are from Beamsville but by looking at her work via Instagram and Facebook we knew it would be worth the drive.
She was on site on time and super friendly and inviting, guided both my partner and I with our poses as this was our first time. Amazing with our 9 month old son, she got some beautiful shots considering how energetic he is!

We had a lovely experience working with Claire for our holiday minis. She was awesome working with our little one and the photos turned out stunning. We will happily have Claire take more photos of our family over the years! We recommend Claire to capture your family memories!

Claire is a very talented photographer. We are repeat customers now for a number of years and she continues to amaze me with the moments she's able to capture. She makes my children feel very comfortable and is able to work quickly and efficiently. I can't recommend Claire enough for young families!
