About Me
(a.k.a. Just a Horse Girl with a Camera and a Big Heart)
Hey! I’m Fran—photographer, iced coffee addict, mom, wife, horse girl, and someone who definitely talks to animals like they understand every word.
I didn’t grow up thinking I’d become a photographer. In fact, I spent years just trying to find my thing—the one that made me feel like me. Turns out, it wasn’t just photography. It was storytelling. Capturing something real.
I’ve always been the type to feel things deeply. Maybe it’s the introvert in me, or maybe it’s because I’ve been through things that shifted my view of what truly matters. Eight years of infertility and loss taught me how fragile time is. Having our son taught me how fast it moves. Horses taught me patience, softness, and strength. And somewhere in all of that, I realized: these moments deserve to be remembered.
Not just the perfect ones. But the quiet, in-between ones. The ones you’ll miss without even realizing.
So now? I photograph real people with real horses (and often, real dogs too). I work with Alberta’s riders, grads, and animal lovers to create sessions that feel calm, natural, and true to who they are. No pressure. No posing marathons. Just you, your animals, and a photographer who gets what they mean to you.
I live in a small town outside Edmonton with my husband, our miracle boy, and more four-legged chaos than I care to count. And when I’m not behind the camera or in the barn, I’m probably reading a book or sneaking snacks with my kid.
So that’s me.
If you’ve made it this far, thanks for being here. I’d love to hear your story too—whether you’re celebrating a big milestone or just want to capture the love that lives in your everyday.
XO, Fran
“I found Fran on Facebook, and after telling her my wedding photo story she wanted to help me create the wedding photo's I had dreamed of! Fran is not only a spectacular photographer capturing the posed moments as well as the candid & raw ones, she is friendly, kind, and accommodating. Now we have many different photos and memories to cherish.”
