Capturing the moments that make you feel something.
Hey! I'm Darby, a photographer based in Toronto. I absolutely love those moments when you finally reach a breathtaking view after a challenging hike, or when you hear the calming sound of rain in the evening. And who could resist the irresistible smell of freshly baked bread or any pastry, really?
I don't just aim to take pretty pictures, what I truly strive for in my photography is to help you feel whole when you look back on your photos. I want them to transport you back to those special moments in your life. Moments filled with laughter, tears, and the comforting warmth of the sun beaming down on you.
My goal is to capture those sentimental moments that often go unnoticed in our everyday lives. Whether it's the simple beauty of a shared meal, the deep connections we have with loved ones, or the cherished places we hold dear in our hearts. I believe that even the smallest snippets of the past can hold immense significance.

Who is Darby?
Growing up on Vancouver Island, B.C in a small town of 9,000 people shaped who I am at my core. I was used to vast, deserted areas with towering trees and mountains. But when I turned 19, I made a big move all the way to Ontario. Suddenly, I found myself surrounded by countless people and towering buildings. It was quite a challenge to adjust to this new environment.
During my childhood, my siblings and I would spend our summers at the lake, creating unforgettable memories. In the winter, we would gather around a warm bonfire with our friends, sharing laughter and stories. I cherished those moments and still do.
When it comes to hobbies, I absolutely love baking, drawing, and sewing. These activities make me feel at home and bring me joy. I'm what some might call a homebody, finding comfort in the simple pleasures of life.
Although I come from a small town, my desire to explore and experience different cultures is immense. It's through these experiences that I can truly appreciate the beauty and diversity of our world.
I'm an INFJ, which means I value deep connections and understanding. Knowing your partner's love language is vital in building a strong and fulfilling relationship. It allows you to communicate and express love in ways that resonate with each other.
Ironically, I met my best friend at a wedding. We instantly clicked and eventually tied the knot ourselves in 2021. Life before him seems like a distant memory now. He has brought so much love and happiness into my life.
