Mack & Stephanie Erieau Engagement Session | Tanya Sinnett Chatham-Kent Photographer
I am still on cloud nine after shooting Mack & Stephanie's recent engagement session in Erieau. You see, it wasn't just any engagement session. Going in to the shoot Stephanie just thought she was having a couples session with her boyfriend Mack. Little did she know, Mack contacted me weeks before the session date to come up with a surprise proposal plan[...]
Colin & Victoria Winter Engagement Session | Tanya Sinnett Chatham-Kent Wedding Photographer
I was so excited that Victoria & Colin wanted to do a winter engagement session. I think the winter season is overlooked far too much. It can create some really beautiful images. I love the way any colour pops against the snow. Plus, if you are having a summer wedding, like these two, it's nice to do your engagement session in a different season.
Let me[...]
Andrew & Morgan Summer Wedding | Tanya Sinnett Chatham-Kent Wedding Photographer
It has been just over a month since Andrew and Morgan shared their love and made their vows in front of their family and friends. They made a beautiful rustic venue out of their family farm. I never imagined a barn could be turned into such a beautiful setting.

Kyle & Rebecca Wedding Day | Tanya Sinnett Chatham-Kent Wedding Photographer
Have you ever met two people completely comfortable with each other that they can show their true goofy self? That is Kyle and Rebecca. Not only are they each others hype person but they are the best of silly friends. I knew their wedding day would be full of laughs and it was.
Kyle and Rebecca had a very short engagement period. They organized an amazing w[...]

2021 Year in Review Post | Tanya Sinnett Chatham Kent Wedding & Family Photographer
Usually around the New Year I put together a blogpost for my Year in Review. I like to look back over the last year as it can go by in a blur, especially during the busy warmer months. I was a little late with putting together my blogpost this year, I honestly just liked having a break from my computer. Putting the post together has been fun and made me smi[...]
Glen & Leighara Links of Kent Chatham Wedding | Tanya Sinnett Chatham Kent Wedding Photographer
I'm thrilled to share some images from Glen & Leighara's wedding day. The two of them got married on a beautiful September afternoon in Chatham Kent. There was still COVID restrictions and limitations but the two of them took it like the champs they are and made the day their own. I believe their motto was, "it is what it is". Nothing was going to stop t[...]
Navy Yard Family Photography Session | Tanya Sinnett Chatham-Kent Photographer
I thought I would quickly throw together a blog post from this recent family session at Navy Yard, Amherstburg. This family was vacationing there and scheduled a family photo shoot while they were all together. I thought that was a brilliant idea. Aside from some rain before we started and it being the hottest day of the year we all had fun. The closeness of[...]
Mat & Samantha Beach Maternity Session | Tanya Sinnett Chatham-Kent Photographer
I love reconnecting with past Brides and Grooms. I'm excited to see where life is taking them. Having the opportunity to work with Mat & Samantha again did not leave me disappointed. These two tied the knot last fall in an intimate backyard wedding. You can visit their wedding post here. Covid and lockdowns were not about to slow these two down on their[...]
2020 Year in Review | Tanya Sinnett Chatham-Kent Photographer
I always love looking back and putting together my Year in Review blogpost. Thinking about the ups and downs 2020 provided has me feeling super impressed.

I have been so lucky and I have the most amazing cli[...]
Koop Family Photography Session | Tanya Sinnett Chatham-Kent Photographer
I had so much fun meeting the Koop family. They drove from London, Ontario to meet me here in Chatham Kent for their family photos. We had an absolutely gorgeous fall day for their session. It was mild and golden and just so lovely getting to know all of them.
Let me share a few of my favourite images from their family session before I send their gallery of[...]
Steve & Kourtney Engagement Session | Tanya Sinnett Chatham-Kent Wedding Photographer
I thought I would quickly put a little blogpost together from Steve and Kourtney's recent engagement session. When the fall weather is right it is oh so right. The last few days it has been grey, gloomy and damp. I'm thankful we were able to get out and enjoy a beautiful fall day last week for their engagement session.
This was actually the first time we me[...]
Mat & Samantha Wedding Day | Tanya Sinnett Chatham-Kent Wedding Photographer
I tell ya, the last month has gone by in a blur. If you know a photographer please give them a hug because fall is a little crazy for them. By hug, I mean virtual of course because...COVID.
Sam and Mat had to pivot to make their wedding day dreams come true. Like so many couples this year things haven't gone quite the way they imagined. I love how they re-i[...]
Mitchel & Jordan Couples Session | Tanya Sinnett Chatham-Kent Photographer
I was so excited to photograph Mitch and Jordan for their couples session. Yes, couples session. I don't want anyone to get the wrong idea and think this is an engagement session.

Deacon Family Photography Session | Tanya Sinnett Chatham-Kent Photographer
The next two months are pretty crazy busy. That's how it goes as a photographer. Some weeks nothing and other weeks you are scrambling to fit everyone it. I'll take the busy. In the meantime, let me share some of my favourite images from the Deacon family shoot. They honestly were so fun to work with and I like to think they thought I was pretty funny.
Shane & Amanda Engagement Session | Tanya Sinnett Chatham-Kent Wedding Photographer
It's no secret that I love engagement sessions. I pry and want to hear all the details about how the proposal went, if someone was surprised, how you met etc. I adore seeing the inside jokes and really getting to know my clients. Often the engagement session is the first time we work together. Not for Shane and Amanda, I did a family session with them in 201[...]
Andrew & Angela Summer Engagement Session | Tanya Sinnett Chatham-Kent Wedding Photographer
I had the pleasure of meeting up with Andrew and Angela at their home. They wanted to make sure we were able to capture some images of their fur babies before we started the engagement session.

After some quick pics at home we[...]
Matt & Yettie Intimate Wedding | Tanya Sinnett Chatham-Kent Wedding Photographer
Intimate weddings are where it's at now. I absolutely loved being able to capture Matt and Yettie's special day and look forward to next year where they can share their love with all their friends and family. COVID may have changed their plans for their wedding day but it didn't change their love and really that's what is most important.
Matt and Yettie we[...]
Daniel & Kassandra Maternity Pictures | Tanya Sinnett Chatham-Kent Family and Wedding Photographer
It has been a while since I have done a new blogpost. COVID had me shut down (like the rest of the world) for some time. I wasn't able to get behind my camera and capture the beautiful moments that make my heart happy. I did try some selfies for a bit but realized I was a terrible subject and difficult to work with. HAHA I started to paint with water colours[...]
Pat & Brenda Downtown Chatham Engagement Session | Tanya Sinnett Chatham-Kent Wedding Photographer
When my Mom and her boyfriend Pat came home from their cruise a few weeks ago, I had them over for dinner. I wanted to see pictures and hear all about their adventures. Little did I know they had a big adventure to share with me. Pat had purposed to my Mom on the balcony of their room. It had been something he was planning to do for some time, he was waitin[...]
Jason & Alyssa Maternity Photo Shoot | Tanya Sinnett Chatham-Kent Family Photographer
January can be a slow month for photography. At least for me. I do welcome the break and the time to re-energize but I start to get a little stir crazy too. Thankfully I have a lot of photographer friends who can relate to this feeling.
Amy Malott Photography volunteered her sister-in law for this fun shoot. As you can see she is expecting. Amy brought alo[...]
2019 Year in Review | Tanya Sinnett Chatham-Kent Photographer

Thank you!
I look f[...]
Mike & Crystal Links of Kent Wedding | Tanya Sinnett Chatham-Kent Wedding Photographer
There are so many things that come to mind when I think back to Mike and Crystals Wedding Day. From the little touches of decor that made the venue theirs, the pictures of them growing up, the doughnut wedding cake, the unique flowers they had designed by Syd Kemsley Florist, their personal hashtag they created #TheBradleysPerfectlyBlended, the laughter...[...]
Steven & Carlee Wilkesport Wedding | Tanya Sinnett Chatham-Kent Wedding Photographer
Carlee and Steven had a beautiful fall wedding this year. They chose to have their wedding ceremony at the lovely Greenhill Gardens in Wilkesports. This was a charming setting for their outdoor ceremony as well as a fabulous location for their wedding pictures.

Stephens Family Photo Shoot | Tanya Sinnett Chatham Kent Family & Wedding Photographer
The last time this family was in front of my camera little Mr X was one. It had been a few years and Mom realized that it was time to update that family photo hanging in their home.

The Roy Family | Tanya Sinnett Photography Chatham-Kent Family Photographer
I had the best time photographing the Roy family last week. With a potential storm in the forecast we made the decision to move their session time up early. I'm so thankful we made that call as the storm hit on my way home from their photography session.
This bunch made their session so much fun. We shared laughs as I guided them into their poses. There wer[...]
Klessens Family Session | Tanya Sinnett Chatham-Kent Family Photographer
I had the pleasure of meeting with Laura and Bart on their farm this week to take their first ever family photos. I was so excited to meet little J and learn a little more about their Dairy Farm and where they had come from. I was fascinated to learn they were not Chatham-Kent originals but decided to make this their home. I'm a little bias since I've grown [...]
Lucas & Amber Wedding Day! {Tanya Sinnett Chatham Kent Wedding Photographer}
Amber and Lucas are an amazing young couple that I had the pleasure of photographing their wedding. It was incredible to watch them together. Amber has a million and one facts stored in her brain and Lucas just smiles and looks at her in awe as she retrieves any of them during a conversation. He holds the car (or in their case truck) door open for her to get[...]
Dan & Jess Port Stanley Engagement Photos | Tanya Sinnett Chatham-Kent Wedding Photographer
How could I say no when Dan and Jess asked me to do their engagement session in Port Stanley Ontario? This was a special location for them. They have had many date nights and walks with their beloved pup Buffy. Buffy was pretty thrilled to be back at their date spot. She was running around on her leash back and forth across the sand. I wish I had a quarter o[...]
Mike & Crystal Engagement and Family Photos | Tanya Sinnett Chatham-Kent Wedding Photographer
We ended up with a beautiful Sunday evening for Mike and Crystals engagement session. It was iffy with a rain storm in the afternoon but we waited it out and were lucky enough to have a dry session. This is the wettest Spring I can recall. The farmers are still trying to plant and we are already into June.
For Mike and Crystals engagement photos they brough[...]
Elliott Birthday Shoot | Tanya Sinnett Chatham-Kent Family Photographer
When Elliott's Mom contacted me to do a fun birthday shoot I was game. Elliott dreams of becoming a police officer (and I so hope that happens and these images can be used at his graduation). His Mom allowed him to come up with the theme of his birthday photography session. He wanted to plan a robbery of his beloved Winnie the Pooh bear and have himself be t[...]

On top of the joy of seeing their boys grow they are also incredibly fun to work with.
Their recent[...]
Isherwood Family | Tanya Sinnett Chatham-Kent Photographer
I had the pleasure of meeting up with one of my past Bride & Grooms last weekend for an extended family session. Jackie and Rob were married in at the Retro Suites Hotel in the Summer of 2017.

This family session was bo[...]

One of the many perks of my job is getting to meet the incredible families I get to photograph. The Gielen family is just one of those amazing families.

I just adore this family and don't get to seem them nearly enough. It was fantastic to meet up with them at Gibbons Park in London Ontario. This is the first time they have had professional family photos done.

Where do I even begin with Brett & Gena's blogpost? These two are an amazing couple surrounded by just as amazing friends and family. The best part is how thankful they are to have them around.

The two of them made me feel like one of their gro[...]

The gorgeous fall weather came quickly and went just as fast. That didn't stop Shane, Amanda and sweet Mr B from having a blast during their family photography session. It may have been a chilly November morning but our laughter kept us warm. Mr B was so active I'm sure he didn't feel the cold.
Let me share some of my favourite images from their family phot[...]

Little Miss N is as happy as can be. She e[...]

How fun that they all brou[...]
Hendricks Family Photography Session | Tanya Sinnett Chatham-Kent Photographer

Rob & Jackie Engagement Photography Session | Tanya Sinnett Chatham-Kent Photographer
When Jackie and Rob told me they were bringing a classic car to their engagement session I was excited. No way did I imagine the kind of classic car they meant. Sure, we are the classic car capitol of Canada but I have not personally been exposed to one such as this in person. I was in awe.
As soon as I started to photograph these two it was clear how comfo[...]
Mark & Jennifer Maternity Photography Session | Tanya Sinnett Chatham-Kent Photographer

Smyth Family Photography Session in Erieau | Tanya Sinnett Chatham Family Photographer
When Mary contacted me to do her family photos she had said it had been a number of years since they had any done. In fact, during their family photography session I learned that her son may have been glued into their last set since he wasn't there for the pictures. I'm sure it makes for a funny story now but there really is nothing like updating your family[...]
Fern & Her Girls
Fern is one of those ladies you just want to get to know and be around. She has an infectious laugh, big smile and caring heart.

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.

Grace and Bill also contacted me way back in the summer to schedule their fall family photos. I tell you, October session dates book up quickly and I am not kidding!

Marcolin Family Photos | Brander Park | Tanya Sinnett Family Photography
Way back in the summer when Trina had contacted me about doing their updated family pictures I was excited. Trina was one of my very first clients when I began this photography journey. I had the pleasure of doing their maternity pictures at this very same location. Brander Park! I absolutely love this park for photos. It makes a gorgeous back drop with its [...]
Josh & Lindsay Chatham-Kent Wedding | Tanya Sinnett Photography
Josh and Lindsay were married on an usually blustery September day. Luckily there was no rain for their beautiful out door ceremony at the Links of Kent in Chatham.
I started the morning off by meeting Lindsay and her girls at Fringe Hair Salon in Chatham. Everyone was quiet and relaxed as they got their hair and make-up done. All the girls looked lovely [...]

Fleuren Family Photography Session | Tanya Sinnett Chatham Ontario Photographer
I had the pleasure of meeting this sweet family last week to take their Fall family photos.
With young children you never know how a session will go. I personally don't like to cause stress during the sessions and try to make them as fun as possible for young children. This may mean you will hear me singing during your family session or making silly faces[...]
Jessome Family Pictures | Chatham-Kent Family Photography
It has been years since I saw Matt last. We used to work in the same building back before I had my son (5 years ago) and before he had any children. With the magic of facebook we could still see what was happening in each others lives and Matt saw that I now was a photographer.
I was ecstatic when he messaged me last month to set up a family photography se[...]
Mark & Patricia Wedding Photos | Tanya Sinnett Chatham Kent Wedding Photographer
I met with Mark & Patricia last year not long after they became engaged. I instantly felt connected to them with their warm and easy laid back personalities. A gorgeous vibrant young couple full of energy and excitement.
Their summer wedding was just as fun as I imagined it to be. The morning was relaxed as the girls got their hair and make-up done. Mar[...]
Walker Family Session | Chatham-Kent Family Photography
Friday night I got to photograph one of my favourite families in one of my favourite locations. Erieau Ontario is such a great location to do your family photos at. I love the tall grass and the pier and how just changing my angle can make for a completely different scene.
Let me share some of my favourite pictures from their recent family session.

Josh & Lindsay Engagement Session | Erieau, Ontario
I met Lindsay and Josh at the beach for their Spring Engagement Session. It was my first time in Erieau this year and it looked a little different from the fall. Things were starting to grow again and turn green.
We had a beautiful evening for our engagement session. It felt very relaxing walking around Erieau with these two getting to know them better. T[...]
Mary & Jess | Friendship Photography Session - Chatham, Ontario
I was excited when Mary and Jess contacted me to do a photography session with them. They are two best friends wanting to get lasting photos of their friendship before life changes. Jess was about to leave for a job. Life is forever changing but now Mary and Jess have frozen their relationship to be able to look back on fondly as time moves forward.
Their[...]
Matt & Vicky Engagement Session | Bothwell Ontario
I am very excited to be shooting Matt and Vicky's upcoming Wedding this summer. We went to Sloan's Christmas Tree Village located just outside of Bothwell for their engagement session. It was a very fitting location since it was close to Christmas. We lucked out with the weather that day. It was mild enough that we didn't need to wear our jackets.
I had [...]
Extended Family Photography Session | Chatham Ontario
I love taking your family pictures on your property. I have said it many times and I will continue to say it. This session was special, not only were the photos taken on the family farm located just on the outskirts of Chatham, but the session included the whole family.
Looking back on this family session I have a smile on my face as I recall the gorgeou[...]
Summertime and the Living's Easy | Erieau Family Beach Photography Session
I have been slacking on the blog post lately.
As I was shoveling my driveway I started thinking of warmer days. I can’t wait for some gorgeous evenings with some nice golden light. Where it doesn’t get dark before dinner. I know Spring is around the corner and busy times are just ahead.
Well during my reminiscing this session came to mind. Jason is ano[...]
Tanya Sinnett Photography | Lifestyle Photography Session
I love looking back at my past sessions. It always puts a smile on my face.
I had the pleasure of photographing my cousins third child (first daughter) for her newborn photos. We also took the time to capture a few family images as well.
What I really enjoyed about this session was being able to be in their home and observe them. It is a wonderful expe[...]
