Kitchener Family Photographer
For Families Who Value Real connection over Perfection
Family portraits are a centuries-old tradition for good reason. Capturing a moment in time in the lives of your family is one of the most meaningful ways to express your unconditional love. I’ve been a family photographer for over a decade, focusing on capturing your family’s true connection and joy over stiff poses and fake smiles. Explore session options and book today!
One photo can tell the story of your family in this chapter of life, moments you’ll never get back.
A great family portrait session is more than taking a photo of your family all dressed up. It’s an opportunity to put your arms around your loved ones, to laugh and smile, to create memories. A good photographer will take more than your portrait, he will capture the moments that make you wish you always had your camera ready. Your family portraits session is an opportunity for you to put down your camera and be part of those moments. Your memories are precious. Your family is worth it.
Your Connection, Honoured Endlessly
I aim to help you remember what you love most about the humans you call family. A great family portrait session is more than taking a photo of your family looking beautiful. It’s an opportunity to connect; to wrap your arms around your loved ones, to laugh and smile, to create unforgettable memories. A great photographer will do more than take your portrait; he will capture the moments that make you wish you always had your camera ready.
Hi, I’m Ben!
I bring over a decade of experience as a family photographer in Kitchener-Waterloo to guide families through a fun, easy-going family photography experience. I’m a husband and father, so I know the value of capturing family memories. I’ll bring my calm yet playful energy to your session, putting everyone at ease.
Why Work With Me
Candid Approach
If you’re like me, you value authentic connection over perfect poses and cheesy smiles. I will put your family at ease, and feed you prompts to inspire genuine smiles and expressions of love.
Trust
As a parent, I understand how important your family memories are, and how keeping kids engaged and in good spirits can be difficult at times. Put your trust in me to strike the right tone with your kids to capture the moment without putting too much pressure on them to perform.
Personalized Experience
I will never try to shape your family into a cookie cutter, 15-minute photo session with pre-selected backgrounds and poses. Customizing your experience to best suit your preferences, schedule and locations is of utmost importance.
Testimonials

“We are immensely grateful to have these precious memories of our son at this stage of his life. We wholeheartedly recommend Ben for anyone looking to create beautiful and lasting family portraits. His work has provided us with cherished memories that we will treasure for a lifetime.”
