About The Sessions

Why Documentary Photography?

I love documentary photography because it captures the true magic of family life—unposed, unstaged, and beautifully real. It’s all about celebrating your family just as you are, with moments that tell your unique story and become timeless memories.

There are three main photography styles:

Documentary photography is for those who want to capture the love, laughter, and chaos that make your family unique. Let me help turn these real-life moments into art for your walls!

  • Portrait Photography: Traditional, posed shots, often in a studio—great for classic family

    portraits.

  • Lifestyle Photography: A blend of natural interaction with a bit of gentle guidance for polished, yet candid moments.

  • Documentary Photography: Completely unposed and honest, taken in your home as you bake, play, or simply connect as a family.

CONNECTING & STORYTELLING

I believe that the most meaningful moments are the ones that happen naturally – unposed, unscripted, and full of life. My passion for photography stems from my love of storytelling and human connection.

Whether I’m working with families in their homes or capturing fleeting moments between loved ones, my goal is always the same: to create images that reflect the heart and soul of your unique story.

These indoor documentary sessions are more than just photos – they’re a celebration of your family’s love, laughter, and connection, captured authentically and beautifully.

When you look back on these photos years from now, I want you to feel like you’re right there in the moment again.

Stay Warm, Stay Real – Perfect Photos Without Leaving Home

Why Winter is Perfect for

Indoor Documentary Family Photography

Winter in Edmonton doesn’t have to mean pausing your family photos. When it’s too cold for outdoor sessions, it’s the perfect time to embrace the warmth and coziness of home. In-home sessions capture your family as you are—laughing, playing, and connecting in the spaces where your most cherished memories are made.

Your home provides a meaningful and personal backdrop for your photos. Whether it’s baking cookies, cuddling on the couch, or kids playing with their favourite toys, your family’s story unfolds naturally in the spaces you love most. No posing, no braving the cold—just comfortable, authentic moments that reflect your family’s personality.

Winter is a season to slow down and focus on what matters most: your connection. Let’s create beautiful, heartfelt images of your everyday life that you’ll treasure forever.

Testimonials

Real Stories, Real Families

I love the idea of photographing special moments in my life, but when it comes down to actually taking the photo, I get extremely awkward and uncomfortable. During our shoot with Mag, she had a profound way of making me feel natural, confident, and dare I say beautiful! The way she captured my family while managing my crying baby and barking dog is beyond me. Mag not only did an exceptional job during the photoshoot itself, she created breathtaking photos that me and my family will cherish forever.

Joanna Ellingson

Ah where do I start, I have endless good things to say about Mag & her photography skills. From the moment I walked in she created a fun, outgoing environment. Seamless coaching transitions into poses.

If you are looking to have a fun, professional photoshoot & to truly be captured in the moment. Magdalena is your go-to photographer. She truly is a people person.

Love my photos, Thanks Mag!

Taylor Temple

I have been working with Mag for a few years and can say with certainty that she is a master of her craft. Her versatile portfolio is a testament to the dedication and highly-creative vision she possesses.

Mag has captured some of the most meaningful moments of my professional and personal life - a priceless gift.

As a person, Mag is curious, warm and connects easily with people. I highly recommend Mag Barry Photography!
