• Welcome!

    Hello and thank-you for stopping by Prairie Child Photography. I've recently combined my site & blog to make it easier for you to find what you are looking for! (at least I hope it's easier...feel free to leave comments!)

    I'm based out of Kamloops, BC, but often find myself on the ferry back to Victoria - to get the scoop on where I'll be, you can head over to Session Info (or if you want to be the first to know, sign up for the PrairiE-news below!)

    Expecting? I've recently introduced a Gift Registry so friends and family can help celebrate your journey through the gift of portraits.

    To view samples of my work, you can check out the portfolio section (or click one of the galleries below).

  • You'll find the latest news and some previews of recent sessions over in the blog (note: I managed to lose a bunch of photos in the move - I will get this restored soon!)

The Oscars

This little guy could put all the starlets walking the red carpet to shame! He was all about the camera.Ok…really, he was all about the ‘liver treats’…whatever works!

Seriously though…Oscar owned the joint!

(is he snubbing me here?)

Do you have a puppy in your life? Consider capturing this moment with portraits.

These little guys are family – and it’s nice to have a record of their “puppy-hood”

I tell yeah…if I was ever going to trade in one of my cats for a day, Oscar would make a great cat-dog!

cute. cute. cute.

New! Handmade Session Albums

I’m still waiting on my sample of the coffee-table album that comes with the Heirloom Collection.  In the meantime, I thought I would post some photos of the new session albums and CD holders that come with the Basic & Classic Collection.

The handmade bonded leather slip-in photo album and matching CD holder arrive in their own black fabric-lined presentation boxes.

(album shown below is the 5×7 option.  Collections come with the 4×5 album)

Both feature a front window to display your favourite image from the session


Study pages protect your images.


A hidden slit along the top allows you to still slip your favourite images out to put on display or lend to grandma!


Slighted textured mats frame and protect your images.
