Hello There!

I Am Aldona.

Thanks For Stopping By!!

I’m glad you found me! It is truly an honor to document another person’s life and tell their story. We all have a different story to tell. Every story is overflowing with beautiful moments. These moments, the quiet ones, the loud ones, and the happy ones join together to tell your unique story for generation to come...

A lifestyle session is all about who you are as a family. I want to capture the real essence of you and what is important to you. I want you to look back in 30 years and remember this specific stage in life and allow you to really feel it. I want you to be reminded of your child's laughter, the smell of your newborn baby, or your kids’ hands touching your face…

I am always looking for raw emotions, real moments and connection. The time we spend together won’t be filled with stiff poses and forced smiles, it will be a time to slow down and enjoy your family. I’ll give prompts and direct when needed, but keeping it relaxed. This allows me to capture your family authentically, document the connection and lots of emotions- that's what my photography is all about. So if you are ready to try something different than traditional portrait and appreciate a more artistic approach then we are a perfect fit.

Your Questions

  •  My family outdoor sessions start around late March and end late November. All sessions are booked according to the sunset times, we generally start around 1.5 hours before sunset, worth keeping in mind to suit the ages of your children. Indoors sessions all year round.

  • I have many locations that I love to shoot at regularly, but I am always open to new locations as well. You should choose a location that fits your style and personality.

  • Of course, this is one of the most important elements of your session. As soon as you’re booked we’ll start chatting about what works for your session taking into consideration the location, season etc.

  • Absolutely. Without the pressure to look at the camera and with lots of encouragement to have fun and be yourself, you’ll love having your photo taken. Promise.

  • Most types of weather won’t stop me shooting but if the forecast is consistently not great, if we can reschedule, we will. Btw, if you love emotive photographs, windy weather can make incredible, emotive photographs.

  • Shortly after your session, you’ll get an email with a link to view the proofs in your online gallery, from which you will select your favorite images for me to edit. Once you’ve made your selections, I’ll get to work on the final edits which can take anywhere from 1-2 weeks.

  • That really depends on where we’re shooting. Sessions are usually around 30-90 minutes. If everyone is having a great time and the evening is beautiful, we’ll keep shooting until it get’s too dark! :)


Do you have a question I haven’t answered above? Would you like to have a chat before you go any further to see if I am the right photographer for you?
