Outdoor Headshot & Portrait Day: Sep 09, 2026

Kelly Jo and I are so excited to be offering another Outdoor Headshot & Portrait Day, this time at the beautiful Harley Hotchkiss Gardens in downtown Calgary!

There’s something I love about photographing outdoors. The natural light, greenery, architecture and changing surroundings give us so many opportunities to create different looks within one session. Harley Hotchkiss Gardens gives us a beautiful mix of polished and professional while still feeling relaxed and approachable.

Whether you need a fresh professional headshot, updated images for your personal brand, portraits simply because you'd love some great photographs of yourself, or even a family session, we'll make the most of the variety around us.

Kelly Jo will be there providing makeup enhancement and styling support, and I'll guide you through posing throughout your session. You don't need to arrive knowing what to do in front of the camera - that's our job!

These sessions can be used for headshots, personal portraits, or family photos - lots of options for you. Just let us know what you'd like to use your session for, and we'll see what we can create together.
