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.

Isabella is such a kind and talented photographer and we are SO happy that we went with her for our wedding couples shoot. We are both a bit shy but she was so good at helping us feel relaxed even while shooting downtown in front of many people. She over delivered on photos and they were all great shots, we’ve been spoiled for choice when trying to select from the set delivered. She captured the spirit and vision that we were aiming for with our wedding photos, I felt she really listened to our preferences. We also found the web platform very well organized for payment, processing and photo delivery, the status on photo editing was a nice feature! Highly recommend, if you are considering a shoot, do it!

As a photographer who doesn't photos of herself (guilty!) and has super high standards, asking Ella to do my headshots was a no-brainer. She is so freaking fun to work with, and have you seen her work? STU.NNING! I'm rarely in front of the lens, so I was really nervous, and I kept making little comments about myself throughout the session. Ella was reassuring every single time. She really made me feel comfortable and confident, and helped me stay in the moment so I could enjoy it to the fullest. Also, her studio is super comfy, beautiful and has a dedicated space to change if you need to and do your glam, 11/10! Thank you so much, my friend, for this incredible experience ♥️

5 stars is not enough. Isabella is amazing! She puts you at ease, makes you laugh, and captures amazing photos.

Hiring Isa for our engagement and wedding photos was probably the best decision we've ever made. She is professional, punctual so so knowledgeable and sweet! She brought a calmness to a day that should have been stressful, and our parents and friends absolutely loved her as well 🙂 A true gem! Thank you SO much xoxo

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 👍🏻👍🏻
