Portrait Sessions | Ella Photography

PORTRAITS

A GOOD PORTRAIT SPEAKS
BETTER THAN A THOUSAND WORDS

Can we please stop being so hard on ourselves and actively want to take photos of ourselves at different stages of our lives? Let it be for social, dating, Linkedin, or just for fun, we need to be ok with highlighting ourselves.

Time passes way too fast and before you know it, you will be sad that you were never in front of the camera. Even worse, your kids and grand kids will not have memories of you.

p.s Bring a friend and you both will get 50$ off your sessions.

Up to 3 outfit changes
Personal rights to print and share photos with family and friends
10 high-resolution photos

Dating profiles

Good photography is based on, not only, the photographer but the equipment you use. Make sure you put your best foot forward by hiring a professional to make you look like your true self.

Like lifestyle, dating sessions are 3 outfits based around your favourite hobbies and outings. We can go to a coffee shop, play guitar at the park, walk around your favourite market, or even just stay in your own home. These sessions are natural. Thing of it like your best friend is a photographer and they bring their camera everywhere when you both hang out. They take photos of all their friends while they are chit chatting or just being their silly selves.

We had our engagement photos taken by Isabella and they’ve come out so beautifully! She has an incredible eye, and while we were initially nervous about being photographed, her kind and bubbly personality instantly made us feel comfortable. In addition to her talent, she’s a true professional: organized and communicative. We would recommend her to anyone looking for a photographer to capture special moments!

Isabella is not only an amazing photographer but an amazing person. When my fiancé asked me for some boudoir photos before our wedding, I was super hesitant. The more I looked into boudoir, and Isabella's philosophy, the more I realized this would also be a gift to myself. A way to get out of my comfort zone, try something new and to accept myself the way I am. Isabella was the BEST person to do a boudoir shoot with. Her studio is stunning and most importantly, she really knew how to put me at ease. She made me feel so comfortable as soon as I walked in, and her jokes made me laugh throughout the session. I would definitely recommend Ella Photography for your Boudoir (or other) photography needs. I truly hope I get to work with her again!!!!

I had such a great experience working with Isabella at Ella Photography. I travelled to Montreal for a boudoir shoot that was gifted to me as a birthday present from a friend. I wasn't sure quite what to expect but the whole process from start to finish was so empowering and professional. She did such a wonderful job of making it an experience that was slightly out of my comfort zone, feel very comfortable! She also really encouraged me to show up as myself. I loved the photos and she was fast at communication and getting them back to me. Highly recommend everyone do one of these, with her, at some point in their life! Thanks.

Isabella was absolutely fantastic! I had never done a photoshoot before and she helped direct me with everything. Didn't even feel awkward doing it in public either! The photos turned out great, couldn't be happier!

Isabella was incredible for our entire wedding weekend. She was super accommodating to our wedding schedule. The photos of course came out fantastic. Having been to quite a few weddings in recent times, to say there are levels to this would be an understatement and having an experienced photographer like Isabella really made all the difference in both the experience and the end product. She was excellent at giving clear instructions during the posed portions which we and our guests found very helpful; during posed photoshoots she was able to capture natural emotions despite our initial unnaturalness. She was very professional at dealing with all the chaos that was our wedding weekend and any unintended surprises that occurred.

My husband and I had a maternity photoshoot with Ella. I was a bit nervous as I am very stiff in front of camera. Ella made the whole photoshoot fun and comfortable! We laughed a lot! She had many great ideas on where and how to shoot. The results are amazing! I loved how she captured us in our “natural habitat”. The photos look so soft and aesthetic, I love it!!! I definitely recommend her 👍🏻👍🏻

Valerie Assels

Isabella did an excellent job. She has a great personality and we were very comfortable working with her. She took a lot of great pictures of my family. She may not know it yet, but we’ll definitely be booking her again for more photos next year!

Katherine

If you’re on the fence at all, I highly suggest you book her, especially if you’re someone who doesn’t usually enjoy being in front of the camera. She will completely change your perspective. I’m typically someone who hates having my picture taken and usually ends up disliking the photos even more. But she completely changed that for me. From the start, she made the entire process feel easy, natural, and genuinely fun. Being awkward in front of the camera is my norm, but she made me feel so much less self conscious. In fact, I was laughing the entire time. Her talent speaks for itself. The images are beautiful and natural, capturing moments in a way that feels effortless yet incredibly polished. I appreciated this experience so much that I am already planning to bring her out for another shoot in the future.

Juliano Bosa

J'ai beaucoup aimé prendre des photos avec Isabella, un bon travail de direction et du talent pour nous mettre à l'aise. Son studio est bien équipé, permettant avoir des espaces très variés. Le processus a été simple et rapide.

Juliana Bukovac

Working with Ella was a pleasure. She was punctual, organized and made us feel comfortable. During our engagement shoot, she was sensitive to our elderly dog’s needs, which we greatly appreciated. At the church at our wedding, she managed to round up the previous wedding’s guests that were lingering too long and asked them to make space for our wedding party (she’s a great bouncer too!). The photos beautifully captured our day, would recommend.
