hey there

I’m Charity!

Hey there guys! It’s me Charity. I would love to share some little tid bits about myself and my style of Photography.

First and foremost, I am a mama to two amazing boys and a wife to the third awesome boy lol. Secondly I have been shooting since I was a teenager…professionally. I took after my fathers footsteps, went to college for photography and haven’t looked back since. I am a total coffee lover, my favourite I brew myself. You will find me sipping coffee at home, in the car and out and about at my favourite coffee shops lol Recently purchased a Don’t take my Coffee t-shirt. In love.

One word to describe Charity is natural. We didn’t realize that when you hire a photographer, you are hiring someone to hang out with you for the day to share your most intimate moments. Her amazing charisma, creativity and personality made our awkwardness work on camera. She was able to bring out a side of ourselves that we never knew existed, while still looking like us.  Our favourite picture was one that she had prompted and she captured our natural reactions flawlessly. We wanted vogue style pictures and she came up with ideas that were more than we expected and we would definitely use her again.

I highly recommend a family session with Charity!  Our one hour photo session was filled with laughter!   Charity has some fun ideas for poses and captures many candid images.  All of our family members enjoyed the photo shoot which was so great to hear.  We have also received several compliments from family and friends about the photographs we picked and displayed.
Thank you Charity for your time, professionalism and ideas!

So happy with our amazing photos captured by Charity. A great way to celebrate Thanksgiving with our family. Thank you Charity for the time, creativity and skill that you brought to our photo shoot! Charity was excellent with the 6 children in our family. She kept things moving and captured exactly what we had imagined!

Charity is an INCREDIBLE photographer, her passion and excitement for photography shows in her work.
When we met for our session, she quickly went over some tips and tricks that would help make our session more fun and relaxed instead of feeling like we were just posing for the camera.
She is a true artist, she choose the perfect location and scenery for our family shoot. Charity is amazing at capturing those perfect candid moments. She was very attentive and professional, but has a very laid back vibe which makes the whole experience FUN.
I will definitely use her again and highly recommend her to family and friends.
Thanks again

Charity is a true artist, she is professional while creating a fun and laid back atmosphere. My wife and I had her do family portraits of us, she captured us at our best and really worked well with my 5 yr old he said he had a blast at the shoot and so did me and my wife.

I first met Charity after moving to Bowmanville 2 years ago, and after seeing her work, instantly decided she was the one to take my family portraits. Her photos are flawless and natural. Using Charity was the best decision. The compliments are endless. The service is proffesional and Charity is both fun and easy to work with. Thanks to Charity I will always have beautiful reminders of my babies as they grow up. I would recommend her to anyone.

Until I met Charity, I would take my children to a portrait studio, and end up with stoic pictures which didn’t even resemble my kids. Inevitably during the shoot, I would be sweaty and frustrated! Then…..I was fortunate enough to find Charity through a mutual friend before Christmas last year. When she photographed my 3 children (ages 6, 3, and 1, not an easy task!) There was no blood sweat or tears. Her immediate rapport with the kids put all of us at ease, and they felt comfortable to move around and be themselves. The result was hundreds of photos which capture my kids very individual personalities better than any pictures I have ever seen of them. I cherish these photos, and others she has taken since. Charity’s personable and easy going nature make her such a pleasure to work with. Now I look forward to photo shoots, instead of dread them!

the

experience

 

I maintain a unique portfolio photographing every client in their own light.  Each Session concentrating on creating personal art that means something to you, pulls a feeling out of you and puts a smile on your face.  From our first emails together, I get to know you, learn your style and plan out our Session together to best represent you.

I am with you through all the stages starting with our own personal Client/Photographer portal, Get to Know you Questionnaires and my What to Wear Guides.  Options of a personal stylist and Make-up artists on call.  I work  with Moda Hair Design here in Bowmanville, they offer both Make-up and Hair.

Depending on the extent of your Session, we draw up Vision boards and include props to your Session.  For example Branding.

I strive to work as quick and efficiently as possible.  Family portraiture including, Maternity, Newborn and Children expect to see your Gallery prepared within 2 weeks.  For Corporate, Headshots and Branding turnaround time is from 2 days to 3 weeks depending on size of project.  Wedding turnaround is 6 weeks.
