& You can call me Ellie
I am the photographer behind the lens at Ellie Marie Photography
I am a dress twirling, wrong lyric singing, snort laughing, coffee in one hand and a camera in the other kind of girl.
I am Mama to two girls, they are 6 and 11 years old. We recently moved to Alberta to be close to family, as much as I miss the mountains and ocean views in BC I have really come to love the community and friendships we have found here in Airdrie.
Ever since I was a little girl , photographs have held a special place in my heart. I would shuffle through the shoe boxes of photos and film that my mom had tucked away for hours and hours! I find it incredible that we have the ability to capture details and moments in time to look back at, to relive in a special moment.
In high school I started film photography classes, instantly I was in love. I continued to take photography classes through graduation and again in post secondary.
When my first daughter was born in 2012 my husband surprised me with my very first DSLR Camera. At first I took photos for my own family, then some friends asked, and their friends would ask.. and now here I am!
Over the years I have continued to work with and be mentored by leaders in the field of Newborn photography. I am constantly investing in my own art and learning new styles, techniques, and safety practices to provide the best service to my families.
Along with capturing timeless newborn portraits, I take pride in building relationships with my families. Having a genuine relationship between family and photographer is what takes the stress away from your family sessions. It is my goal to create an environment where everyone is comfortable and excited to get your photos done. I love watching your babies grow up with you!
Thank you for reading, ♡ing, following along & supporting me & my family.
Love & light

“We love Elissa, every time we are so happy with our photos. The sessions are fun and she is absolutely amazing with our kids. Always has fun poses and ideas. She’s lovely and just so great ti work with”
“Elissa is truly one of a kind, I’m so glad we have had the opportunity to have her capture our special memories over the last 3 years. She has seen us through our wedding, baby announcements, maternity & newborn photos and now family photos. She turns our chaos into images that I will cherish for the rest of my life. My oldest held her hand on our walk back to the car after my most recent session and it was such a testament of her character and love for children. So thankful for you 💕”
