Last Spring, I had the absolute pleasure of spending an evening with the Shae family at their villa in Florence, Italy. Angela is an entrepreneur, and the genius behind&nbsp;<a href="https://socialtemplates.co/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Social Templates</a>&nbsp;- an Instagram Reels resource specifically for photographers. When I heard Angela&rsquo;s entire family was going to be coming to Florence I was so excited. Angela and I had become friends at a conference in Vegas earlier in the year, and I couldn&rsquo;t wait to meet the boys she had told me so much about. Documenting her family while on their vacation in Florence, in the villa they were calling home for the week was such a joy. Getting to see Angela in action as a mama, seeing her and her husband Vlad as the most loving couple, and capturing the sweet personalities of each of their sons was truly a highlight of my trip. I am fairly certain nights like these are what we refer to as&nbsp;la dolce vita. If you are going on vacation or will be travelling abroad with your family and would love to document your trip, never hesitate to reach out! I travel a lot for my work and on multiple occasions have been able to align a family session for clients with their own travels! And if you are a photographer who wants to be posting more regularly on Instagram reels but don&rsquo;t have the time - make sure you check out&nbsp;<a href="http://socialtemplates.co/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Social Templates</a>, you can use the code&nbsp;LINDSAY&nbsp;to get your first month free 🫶🏼 For a treat to your ears and eyes, giv<a href="https://open.spotify.com/track/3lSpczrXGWy6Bzc28KGHhE?si=66f041ebe9d6470a" target="_blank" rel="noopener">e this a listen while you scroll.</a>

Family Photos in Florence, Italy - The Shaes

There&rsquo;s something incredibly special about photographing a family year after year. Watching them grow, change, and create new memories together is one of the best parts of my job. The Potvin family is no exception. I&rsquo;ve been lucky enough to photograph Steph and Corey since their engagement session &amp; wedding over ten years ago, and every session since has been a joy. This year, we met near their new home at Sauble Beach for their family session, and it was the perfect setting for a laid-back, fun-filled evening. Sauble Beach is one of my favorite places for family photos&mdash;the open shoreline, the soft dunes, and the way the light hits the water at sunset make for absolute magic. From the moment we started, the Potvins were completely in their element. The kids ran barefoot through the sand, collecting little treasures along the shore and giggling as the waves chased their toes. Steph and Corey shared quiet moments, watching their little ones play, and soaking in the beauty of it all. There&rsquo;s something about beach sessions that makes everything feel so effortless&mdash;no stiff poses, just real, candid moments of connection. As the sun dipped lower, we captured some of my favourite images of the evening. The golden light reflected off the water, creating a dreamy glow around the family. The kids wrapped up in cozy blankets, the last bit of energy spent from running in and out of the waves. It was the perfect way to end our session&mdash;happy, sandy, and full of love. Steph and Corey, thank you for trusting me to document your family&rsquo;s story year after year. Watching your family grow has been such an honor, and I can&rsquo;t wait to see what&rsquo;s next for you all. Much love, Lindsay If you&rsquo;re thinking about a family session at Sauble Beach or another beautiful location, let&rsquo;s make it happen! Reach out, and let&rsquo;s capture some beautiful memories together.

Sauble Beach Family Session with The Potvins

I recently had the incredible pleasure of working with the Finn family, who are as sweet as they are stylish. Kelsey, Michael, and their adorable 2-year-old son, Nash, took to Downtown Kitchener for a family photoshoot that beautifully encapsulated their love, style, and the vibrant vibes of the urban setting. Downtown Kitchener offers a unique and lively backdrop for family photos, with its bustling streets, eye-catching murals, and architectural diversity. It was the perfect canvas for creating beautiful memories for the Finn family. One of the standout features of this session was the Finn family's impeccable style. Each family member was dressed to perfection, creating a coordinated and effortlessly chic look. Can we talk about those matching Nike sneakers? In family photography, it's not just about the outfits or the location; it's about capturing those genuine moments of love and connection. And making sure that your family&rsquo;s own unique energy is encapsulated in a way that feels truly like you. Nash, a little spark of energy at 2 years old, stole the show with his playful antics (at one point, putting on a show and rapping for us) and adorable expressions. His vibrant personality added a playful touch to every frame. Whether he was running around Goudie&rsquo;s Lane, exploring the colorful street art, or sharing precious moments with his parents, Nash's lively spirit shone through in every shot. The Finn family's downtown Kitchener photo session was a dream for me - not only were their outfits perfection, I love documenting a family who clearly has so much love for each other. Their coordinated outfits, matching Nikes, and the urban backdrop of Downtown Kitchener created a unique and perfectly &ldquo;them&rdquo; backdrop for their family portraits. But beyond the looks, it's the real moments of love and connection between Kelsey, Michael, and Nash that make these photos timeless treasures. Feeling inspired for your own family photoshoot? Follow the Finns' lead by choosing a location that reflects your family's style and personality. Whether you're into the urban aesthetic of the city or looking for something in nature, remember that it's the love and connection that truly make family photos priceless. So let&rsquo;s have fun and make some memories.

Downtown Kitchener Family Session with the Finn’s

This season has been SO busy - tons of beautiful family sessions out in the fall leaves&hellip; and a LOT of babies and expecting parents. I recently had the immense pleasure of capturing this sweet maternity session. Our backdrop for this special occasion was Shelene &amp; Brenner&rsquo;s absolutely stunning home, filled with character and warmth &ndash; the kind of setting that perfectly complements a personal session like this. The real stars of the show, of course, were this beautiful mom and dad, who exuded sheer joy and anticipation as they awaited their little one. As much as I love a beautiful outdoor location, I&rsquo;ve come to love and appreciate the unparalleled personal touch that an at-home session can bring to maternity photography. Home is where genuine emotions shine brightest, allowing me to not only create personal and intimate images but also to weave the unique love story of each couple into every frame. It's this authenticity that makes each maternity session truly special and unforgettable. I wanted to take a second here to also share more about my '<a href="https://www.lindsaycoulterfamilies.com/pricing-guide" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Bumps + Babes</a>' package, a unique offering that combines both maternity and newborn photography. These packages are thoughtfully designed to chronicle the incredible journey of welcoming a new life into the world, capturing the excitement of pregnancy and the pure joy of those early newborn days. Every session is a genuine celebration of life, love, and family, and I'm deeply honoured to be part of these unforgettable moments in the lives of the families I work with. With the winter season approaching, I'm thrilled to announce that I'm open for bookings for 'Bumps + Babes' sessions. However, please be aware that my availability is limited, as I'll be doing a bit of travel through November to April and taking a break to recharge. My commitment is to provide each client with the individual attention and dedication they deserve, which is why I'm keeping the number of sessions limited to ensure that personal and intimate experience. So if you are an expecting mama, please make sure to&nbsp;<a href="https://www.lindsaycoulterfamilies.com/contact" target="_blank" rel="noopener">reach out</a>&nbsp;as soon as possible to get booked in for your Bumps + Babes sessions now!

"My name is Lindsay. I’m a photographer based in Kitchener-Waterloo, Ontario. I have a bright, light-filled studio in Uptown Waterloo and I love photographing families.

 

Becoming a photographer for me was not like many other photographer’s stories. I was not born with a camera in my hand. In fact, the photos I took when I was younger are pretty awful. I was, however, born with an insatiable desire to learn about humans and to help them see themselves in the same light that the people who love them most see them in.

 

I think it’s this desire that makes my work different.

 

Of course, the technical skill and ability to create an image came with a lot of dedicated effort.. but my work has always been rooted in my love for observing humans and helping to capture their essence."
