These Are the Days You’ll Want to Remember
Honest Family Photography in Vancouver
I grew up in Italy, where I spent hours lost in old family photo albums — studying each image like it held a secret. Even then, I knew how powerful it was to hold onto a fleeting moment.
That’s what I bring to every session:
a deep love for storytelling, and a quiet reverence for this wild, beautiful life.
Hi, I’m Lorenza
You don’t need to prepare your children.
You don’t need to practice smiles.
And you definitely don’t need things to be perfect.
I create space for families to simply be — messy, loud, tender, quiet — exactly as they are.
I photograph families the way life actually happens.
Your session is calm, unhurried, and completely child-led. I’ll guide you gently with prompts and movement so you never feel awkward or unsure, but nothing is forced or overly posed.
If your kids need a snack, a cuddle, a moment to run — we pause.
If they’re loud, shy, wild, or emotional — all of it is welcome.
What matters most isn’t perfect behavior.
It’s your energy. When you show up present and open, your children feel it — and that’s where the most meaningful photographs live.
You don’t need to perform.
You just need to be there with your people.
I’ll take care of the rest.

You are the actual BEST.. A magician. I am so very grateful for the experience of having been photographed by you and, for course, for the incredible photos themselves. Definitely a highlight of 2025 for me.

WHY THIS MATTERS
The ordinary moments — the ones that feel small now — are the ones we miss the most later.
Childhood changes quietly, without asking us to slow down.
One day, your children will want to remember what it felt like to be loved in this season of life.
Without photographs, so much of family life lives only in memory — and memory softens with time.
Years from now, it won’t be perfect photos you long for, but the feeling of how it all once was.
These moments deserve to be held with care.

THE PHOTOS THAT LORENZA HAS DONE FOR US WILL BE CHERISHED FOR A LIFETIME.
Afterwards, you’ll receive images that feel honest and familiar. Not overly polished. Not staged. Just full of feeling — the kind you’ll return to again and again.
These photographs aren’t about perfection. They’re about truth.
Before your session, it’s normal to wonder how it will go.
During our time together, things slow down. We move gently, follow your children’s lead, and let moments unfold naturally. I shoot from different angles, guide when needed, and stay present for the in-between — often where the magic lives.

Lorenza is an incredibly talented photographer with a real eye for beauty and a gift for truly seeing people.
I create a space where you can open up, slow down, and genuinely be with your loved ones. Your children are free to be themselves, and you’re free to just connect — supported by an experienced Vancouver family photographer who knows how to hold the moment without pressure or perfection.
A calm, relaxed, kid-led experience
The tiny details, the in-between gestures, the season you’re in right now. The things you’ll miss without realizing it — preserved in a way that lets you return to the feeling, not just the memory.
A way to document what won’t last forever
As a family photographer in Vancouver, I create natural, heartfelt photographs that feel like you — the connection, the quirks, the tenderness, the chaos — captured honestly without stiff poses or forced smiles.
