Capturing the moments that
make you feel something.

Darby Mitchell photography - about me

Hi! I'm Darby, a Toronto-based photographer who finds joy in life's simple pleasures, like reaching a breathtaking view after a tough hike or the calming sound of evening rain.

My photography is about more than creating beautiful images; it’s about capturing moments that make you feel whole. I want your photos to transport you back to the laughter, tears, and warmth of life’s most meaningful experiences.

From quiet, unnoticed details to the connections and places closest to your heart, my goal is to preserve the sentimental moments that tell your unique story.

I VALUE

COMFORT,
CREATIVITY
& CONNECTION

Darby Mitchell photography - about me

Growing up in a small town of 9,000 on Vancouver Island, B.C, I was surrounded by vast forests, towering mountains, and quiet lakes. Summers were spent creating memories by the water, while winters meant gathering around bonfires with friends. These moments shaped who I am at my core.

At 19, I made the leap to Ontario, trading small-town serenity for bustling city life—a challenging but transformative shift. Despite being a homebody who loves baking, drawing, and sewing, my passion for exploring new cultures runs deep, helping me appreciate the beauty of diversity.

As an INFJ, I value meaningful connections and believe understanding each other’s love language is key to a fulfilling relationship. Fittingly, I met my best friend at a wedding, and in 2021, we tied the knot. Life before him feels like a distant memory—he’s brought so much love and happiness into my world.

xoxo, Darby
