Hi, I’m Shaeline

I am so happy you stopped by! Thank you for taking some time to get to know me.

In 2016, my family and I moved to Halifax and I decided to make my dream of being a full-time photographer a reality. I love that my work allows me to meet so many new people and capture moments that will be treasured for years to come.

My husband and my two amazing kids are my incredible tribe that inspire, motivate and keep me going each and every day. Being a wife, momma and entrepreneur has created a life where I get to combine all the things I love the most. Family, photography and storytelling.

Most days you will find me at home working, enjoying a kombucha or chai, playing with our new pup and waiting for my kids to be done school. I love getting outside whenever I can, creating organized and beautiful spaces and finding any chance to get to the ocean. My favourite season is summer because I get to enjoy all the things I love: camping, beach days, the sunshine on my little deck oasis, road trips and spending as much time with friends and family as I can. I enjoy interior design, being active, cooking up new recipes and music.

My photography style incorporates movement, light and emotion. I believe in creating a relaxing, comfortable and simple atmosphere to capture beautiful moments as they happen. It is an incredible job to be given, to document lifelong memories and I am so honoured and thankful that you have entrusted this to me. You will leave with images that will bring back emotions that you and your family felt in those moments.

My Story & Philosophy

I remember the day that my Grandpa was sharing his stories about his experiences in England during the second world war. Going through the black and white images of the places he had seen and hearing the stories that went with them. I remember when my mom would share memories from photos about family members or reunions from before I was born and how special those moments were to her. In our last home I curated a wall that had wedding photos from our parents and grandparents’ generation. Looking at those I knew I wanted to capture these stories through beautiful imagery. Not only would you get a beautiful photo but you would capture a lasting memory.

I was a teacher before I pursued full time photography and I adored my job. I loved seeing the kids make sense of everything they were learning and I also realized how quickly they changed. This is where my passion for capturing newborns and families came from. Freezing that time in life to look back on and remember their silly personalities, funny faces they made, their active bodies and so much more! I want to capture who they are in that moment.

People are such a huge part of our lives. Relationships grow, change and continue to evolve but capturing them will always allow us to have a glimpse into those moments. Let’s capture these moments together.

“Capturing organic and authentic moments to tell your love story.” I think that all parts of your life are love stories. From meeting the love of your life, getting engaged, getting married, bringing a child into your family and growing as a family. Each moment shows you a bit more love that you never knew you had. I truly believe that you will never regret having moments and memories captured throughout your life.

I believe that when my clients hire me they are hiring me to capture their story through my lens. To capture moments that they don’t normally see or aren’t able to appreciate fully in the moment. I can’t wait to connect with you.

“When you find someone who captures moments exactly how you see them, you hold on for dear life and hope they don't ever leave! That, for us, is Shaeline.”
