ABOUT ME

My story

My name is Stephanie Lachance, I’m a multi international award-winning stylized portrait photographer from Montreal, Canada, specializing in children and women portraits. I started photography while living in Japan many years ago and I’ve have been doing photography full-time since 2008. My images have been compared to paintings and are mesmerizing and captivating to the viewers. During my photo sessions, my goal is to capture my client’s souls and that is through their eyes, which is my main focus. Styling is very important to me in order to create amazing portraits and I know how to photograph children in a unique way. As an expert in posing and expressions, I will guide you to bring out the best of you and your family.

The reasons why I love taking portraits is that I love seeing people’s reaction when they see their images for the first time. Whether it’s a mother crying when she sees her families’ images, or a woman coming to my studio with low self esteem and leaving feeling amazing about herself. I just love to change in a positive way the way women sees themselves. Or just going to my client’s home and seeing my images decorating their walls is very special to me. Exist in photographs because one day, they will become priceless.
