Professional Photography by Kate & Ryan Farr

Authentic. Technical. Timeless. Since 2007.

Based in Sarnia, Ontario, and documenting stories across the globe, we provide a sophisticated, true-to-color photography experience. With nearly two decades of professional experience, our philosophy is simple: provide a high-end, professional service that is supportive and friendly without being overwhelming.

We are masters of light—both natural and artificial. Whether we are in a sun-drenched field or a dimly lit reception hall, we ensure every image is clean, crisp, and true to the moment. No AI gimmicks. Just real, professional artistry.


Ryan | Weddings & Elopements

My approach to your wedding day is intentional and relaxed. I don’t believe in forced, stiff poses; instead, I use suggestive techniques that allow you to be yourselves. I am highly observant of the environment, if the light isn’t peaking at the right moment, we take a break and return when the situation is perfect. This ensures your gallery is filled only with our best possible work.

While I am the primary lead for weddings, we offer the option to hire us as a couple. This isn’t just “adding a second shooter”—it’s adding another veteran with 15+ years of experience to your day. As an elopement veteran who traveled to Morocco for our own wedding, I am always ready to pack my gear for destination weddings across the globe.


Kate | Newborn Studio

In the studio, my focus is on the art of the minute detail. Newborn photography requires a specific blend of patience and precision. I curate setups that are rich with textures and props, designed to be visually engaging without ever distracting from the true focus: your baby.

I am meticulous about the technicalities—from the exact placement of a newborn’s fingers to the angle of the studio lights. My goal is to provide you with an heirloom-quality gallery that stands the test of time.
