Creative Soul & Studio Maven
Emily, Owner / Operator
Meet Emily, the heart and soul behind Diamondview Photography! Since launching her photography career in 2010, Emily has loved watching families grow and capturing the moments that make them shine. As a wife, mom, and devoted dog-mom, she knows how to bring out the best in every session.
When Emily isn’t running her busy studio, she’s also the Area Coordinator for Now I Lay Me Down to Sleep, giving back in a truly meaningful way. And in her downtime? You’ll find her cherishing time with her family, soaking up every beautiful moment.
Call Wizard & Client Connection Specialist
Samantha, Administrative Assistant
Meet Sam, our awesome administrative assistant, handling all discovery calls and getting to know our clients in the first step of the process. From time-to-time Sam will also assist our newborn sessions. Sam is also a passionate photographer with a special knack for capturing the magic of couples and their weddings. With the sweetest rescue dog named Riley by her side, Sam believes in the beauty of life’s moments—whether it’s a candid image, playful adventure or glamourous events.
When not behind the camera or guiding clients through their journey, you can find Sam indulging in the simple pleasures of carbs (blame her mom) and catching up on much-needed sleep. An avid gamer, Sam loves to stream video games during the rare downtime, balancing her creative pursuits with a love for sports like soccer and ringette, which have been a part of her life for over 20 years.
Above all, Sam has a big heart and a love for bringing smiles and laughter to those around her, turning every day into a celebration of joy and connection.
Smile Maker & Snuggle Coordinator
Michelle, Newborn Assistant
Michelle has been having a blast as part of the Diamondview Photography team since 2016. When she’s not busy helping Emily capture special moments for families, you can find her hanging out with her own crew, taking walks with Winston, her spirited standard poodle, or embarking on travel adventures. And let’s be real—she can’t resist curling up with a big bowl of popcorn while binge-watching reality TV!
“I absolutely love connecting with families, especially when I get to cuddle their little ones. Now that my kids are adults, I often find myself reminiscing over their childhood photos, which bring back all those joyful memories. I can’t wait to meet you and your family at the studio!”
