I’m a family & branding photographer and speaker with an easygoing style & huge sense of humour. 


Most days you can find me in Toronto’s east end where I live, either working away documenting other amazing families, entrepreneurs, sharing my message or spending time with my husband, son and dog enjoying the beauty our city has to offer.

 
 
ME! 7 months pregnant Dec 2017.

My approach to everything in life is about being real. I believe that following your intuition and your passions will help you live authentically and ultimately have a really fulfilling life.

Whether it’s capturing special moments between family members, helping an entrepreneur showcase their incredible talent, giving back to others in need or sharing my message, I lead with my heart and that informs everything I do.

This moment gets me every time I look at this image. - I think it's because I know this moment so well now that I'm a mom. - The moments I photograph between family members are that much more precious now that I "get it". - I'm so grateful for that. And I'm so grateful to be able to give that to families. - In her own worda, this beautiful Mother shared with me why having photos of this time in her life is important. - "This time has flown by so quickly and I'd like to capture it. I am so filled with love that my heart bursts each time he smiles, laughs and shows he loves me." - Gahhhh! How amazing is that?! - Why are having family photos important to you?

This is a sweet moment between Jack and I from December. He had just learned how to touch my finger with his.⁣ -⁣ You may be wondering what's on his body. It's not an 80's inspired mesh top, although that's a fun idea for a Halloween costume. ⁣ -⁣ What it IS is a fabric cover for the heart holter monitor he's wearing. ⁣ -⁣ I wear many hats; Mom, Wife, Photographer, Sister, Aunt, Friend, Peer, Generally Awesome Person, and Heart Mom.⁣ -⁣ Jack has consumed a lot of my life for the last 13 months, as he should. As he grows and learns more each day, he's becoming more independent (already!) which is also allowing me to be able to do more. More for me, more for our family, more for my business. ⁣ -⁣ I'm learning that parenthood, specifically motherhood is an ever-evolving "role". Once you get used to how your "role" is, WHAM, something changes and you have to adapt. ⁣ -⁣ Have you noticed this too? How have you adapted to the constant changing that is parenting?⁣ -⁣ Photo credit: @scarlettoneil⁣ ⁣
⁣ Why is it important to document Fatherhood?⁣ -⁣ "Because he's growing up so quickly and it's an opportunity to have a beautiful reminder of what he was like at this age."⁣ -⁣ Why else is it important? - "My wife takes a million photos of the kids, so we have documented their childhood quite well. However, there's something special about professional photos that make them stand out above the rest."⁣ -⁣ I'm now offering Fatherhood Sessions. ⁣ - Tentative dates are April 13 and June 23 (right after Father's Day so you can gift him a session and have everything set up in advance). ⁣ -⁣ What's included?⁣ 30-minute mini photo session / 15 edited high-resolution images per session (option to purchase additional images) / Online private gallery / In-studio or outdoor locations/ Cost: $245 + hst.⁣ -⁣ If you're interested, please DM me here or email hello@jenallison.ca -⁣ #jenallisonfamilies #fatherhood ⁣ ⁣
