If you’re a busy professional, there’s a good chance you’re also a really interesting person.

A lot of the people I work with have moved cities, changed careers, started companies, or taken on demanding roles that leave very little free time. Engineers, startup founders, CEOs, consultants, creatives, people in leadership roles—you name it. These are people with full lives, strong passions, and incredible hobbies… but not always someone around to take great photos of them. As a military member, I think I have a lot of really cool adventurous hobbies…. but I moved so often I didn’t have anyone to explore, train with, and the photos I did get on the odd-chance were never that great.

That’s where things get tricky.

Most dating profile photos end up being quick phone snapshots, old photos taken by an ex (or with an ex), or images that don’t really reflect who you are today. Not because you don’t care, but because life is busy, and getting high-quality photos just isn’t easy when you’re focused on building something meaningful.

That’s exactly why I offer dating profile photography for busy professionals in Ottawa.

More Than Just Dating Photos

When I work with someone, the goal isn’t just to get “a good photo for an app.” It’s to highlight the full person.

We talk about who you are outside of work. Your hobbies. Your interests. The things that light you up when you’re not in the office. Whether that’s fitness, music, cooking, outdoor adventures, community involvement, or creative pursuits, we build the shoot around you. In one-day we create an itinerary that captures you and your hobbies in the best possible way.

I’ve worked with professionals in high-responsibility roles who want their photos to feel natural, confident, and authentic, not stiff, awkward, or overly posed. The process is relaxed, supportive, and respectful of your time and confidentiality. We work together to create images that feel like you on your best day, not a version of you that feels forced.

Why Professional Photos Actually Work

A lot of my clients are surprised by how useful these photos become.

Yes, they’re used on dating profiles—and yes, we’ve seen real success there. Better conversations. More matches. We’ve seen an engagement recently too!! Better alignment with the people they actually want to meet.

But the photos often go further than that.

Clients use them for:

• Dating profiles
• Professional headshots
• Startup or company websites
• Community outreach programs
• Personal branding
• Social media
• Personal keepsakes and memories

What starts as dating photography often becomes a complete visual refresh that people carry forward into multiple parts of their lives.

A Supportive, Respectful Experience

I feel incredibly lucky to work with the people I do.

My approach is built around respect, for who you are, for your time, and for the life you’ve built. I understand that not everyone loves being in front of a camera, and that’s okay. You don’t need to be a model. You don’t need to “know what to do.” That’s my job.

My role is to guide you, collaborate with you, and capture moments that genuinely reflect the person you are, so when someone sees your photo, it feels real, confident, and inviting.
