Capturing beautifully honest images that show you the joy within your story

 
Branding Photography Lawrencetown Nova Scotia

My sessions aren’t just about taking pretty pictures.

Working together, we go inward so we can begin to know your story or the story of your family on a deeper level, allowing me to tell it as real and honestly as possible, capturing all the emotion and connection it holds. Life is beautifully messy and perfectly imperfect. My sessions are an invitation for you to courageously let me walk alongside you as your story unfolds.

“Deedee sees beauty in life’s most basic, most fundamental interactions between people who love each other and she saves those moments in time. Her photographs show you the beauty that is your life. Especially at your most vulnerable, she will find the beauty and share that with you. She is a rare talent.” – Anne Swan

 

Sacred Soul Portrait & Branding Sessions

Not your everyday portrait session, the Sacred Soul portrait and branding session begins with an unearthing of your story to create images that stand out from the crowd.

Together we dig into who you are and what your brand represents. The images created beautifully represent you and the message you want your clients to hear and feel. With intuitive guidance and gentle pushes, we will uncover and capture the art of your true self.

“The ROI that my photos have had on my business is priceless. People message me all the time just to ask about my images- because they portray the REAL me, not some manicured version. And in a busy online world, it pays dividends to get noticed!” If I need to hire Deedee every time I need photos, it’s #worthit and then some.” – Becky Keen

Personal Work & Explorations

Creating art for myself pulls me out of my everyday. When I am able to create solely for myself, I can truly let go and experiment. It’s in the experiments that I push myself to go deeper and come out with imagery that doesn’t have to please anyone but me. It’s liberating and nourishing and allows me to come back to my clients with renewed energy and inspiration.

We Are the Wild Oracle Cards arose from such an experiment. I pushed myself to learn a new skill and fell in love with layering multiple images to create a whole new, unified image that told an entirely new story. Most of my personal work is an exploration of the bigger story of being human. What we wrestle with, how we connect to each other, to the earth, to ourselves. Shifting Polarities tells the story of the indomitable connection we have to mother earth and the more we are able to harmonize masculine and feminine energy, the more abundant life will be. The oracle cards tell a similar story. A humanity that wrestles with and explores their shadow side will inevitably understand that they are the only light necessary.

“Deedee is an artist. She completes the circle. She sees what your soul knows and shows it to you in the form of a photograph. She does this is in the most unobtrusive, simple, yet, profoundly powerful of ways. It can change the way you see yourself. It is a gift.” – Juel Maerz

I see you, beneath the surface. 
I see your unnamable wild. 
I see your billowing heart.
I see your images, tears, and your not yet dreams
and your devotion to spirit. 
I see you howl at the moon and call the ocean home
and ground your earth and grow taller than the trees.
I see you. 
You are not alone. 
You are not invisible.
You are seen. 
You are seen.
You are seen.
And my god,
You are beautiful.
