Chris & Sabrina Chatham-Kent Engagement Session | Tanya Sinnett Chatham Ontario Photographer

I was thrilled to finally meet Chris and Sabrina. All of our communications have been through e-mail, text and the dreaded facetime. I find it so awkward to meet people over a device. I feel like its a little more difficult to communicate and really get a feel for me and my personality. So needless to say I was happy to be able to meet them face to face for [...]

This is not the first time I have photographed these boys. Hopefully it won't be the last time. I was lucky enough to get to photograph Mom and Dad too and the little bump. My Summer has been extremely busy with Weddings and Family Photography Sessions and I couldn't be happier. So in a manner to save time I will keep this blogpost short and sweet. All you[...]

Eldon & Bernice Anniversary Shoot | Tanya Sinnett Family Photographer Chatham-Kent

I couldn't wait for Eldon and Bernice's special Anniversary shoot. I wanted to know their secret to a lasting relationship in this day and age. Sure Eldon gave me the advice of doing what your wife says. Happy wife happy life or to that affect. Their advice wasn't in their words though, I could see it in the looks they shared, the ease they fell into each ot[...]

Jacob & Jordan Engagement Photography Session | Tanya Sinnett Chatham-Kent Photographer

When we were discussing locations for Jacob and Jordan's engagement session we decided the best place would be their farm. This will be the same location for their summer wedding. What a great way to get a feel for the property as well as plan out where we would be doing their wedding photos. Jacob and Jordan are two of the most down to earth people I have [...]

Krag and Casey met up with me at Wilson's Conservation Area here in Chatham-Kent for their engagement photos. The weather was questionable all day. We had a thunderstorm that afternoon. We went ahead with their scheduled engagement session and I'm[...]

We managed to stay connected with the wonders of facebook. I was so happy when we scheduled their next session. Julie and I planned to do their family phot[...]

Van Damme Family Photography Session | Tanya Sinnett Photography (Chatham-Kent)

I have been photographing this family for a few years now. They usually have me come out to their farm before Christmas to photograph their family. Despite the cold we always manage to have a good time. Little Miss M is growing into a lovely little girl. No longer the toddler. It amazes me how quickly they grow up. She can tell me about school now and namin[...]

Brewer Family Photography Session | Tanya Sinnett Chatham-Kent Photographer

What an adorable family I had the pleasure of photographing. The little girls had such a timeless look to them. I mentioned to their mother that the youngest looked like she was out of a 1940's story book. Jenn found me after I did family photos for one of their closest friends. It is so flattering and an honour when I hear I am being recommended. I love al[...]

Colby Family | Tanya Sinnett Chatham Family Photographer

April is a fellow photographer and also my best friend. It's only natural that we trade photography sessions each year. When we are together it is like two siblings. We bicker, we laugh we have silent conversations in our heads that only the two of us get. I have known her for half my life! Only recently did I realize she is the only person I talk to on the[...]
