In a world of digital technology images have become disposable.

 I want to bring you back to the beautiful basics of film photography.

I am…

A queer trans creator pursuing connection and making art through film photography.

A maker. An appreciator. An old soul.

I first discovered photography 16 years ago in my high school darkroom shooting black & white film and I’ve never strayed from the joy of analog.

You Are…

Looking for something different and love film photography

You Are…

Deeply in love & focused on candid moments with your person

You Are…

Looking to be captured authentically and creatively by someone who makes you feel comfortable

SO Let me bring your memories into focus


My name is Kris (he/they)

I can’t wait to meet you.

With over 15 years of experience exclusively shooting film, my specialty lies in 35mm film photography. I adore the art of film and will never abandon the timeless emphasis on lighting, texture, and tangibility that it brings into focus. I started in abstract and fine arts photography, and believe that this style is still evident in my current work. Since my first wedding in 2015, I’ve been hooked on capturing love in and around Ottawa.

Whatever you’re looking to capture - I will create art from your precious moments.

Queer cowboy portraits on film in Ottawa

I offer a range of portraiture options from classic head shots to lifestyle and outdoor sessions. 

My favourite are creative portrait sessions with creative individuals!

You might choose an intimate session to explore your relationship with your body, celebrate yourself, or create a great gift for a partner. Whatever the reason, I look forward to guiding you through the experience in a safe space.
