Treena at SeaSide Studios has been in the Parksville area for the past 13 years, providing photographic services for family portraiture, executive portraiture, architectural design, product advertising and weddings. It is my passion to capture a decisive moment with a creative style that creates an image uniquely your own. "Photography takes an instant out of time, altering life by holding it still". - Dorothea Lange
WelcomeCreating a Special PortraitFirst and most important is my desire to create a portrait for you which will help you to look your best, and capture the spirit of the occasion. I love making portraits and spare no effort to create the finest portraits. I believe in taking the time to create something special and worthwhile. This includes making sure that you know how the session will happen, what to expect, helping you plan clothing etc.A Precious PossessionI understand how important and precious portraits are. Clients have told us that their family portrait is the most precious thing possess. I feel priviledged that people choose me to make their portraits.
Lifestyle and Family Photographer on Vancouver Island.
The best family photos usually happen when nobody is trying too hard. Just real connection, a bit of movement, and moments that feel like you.
I’m a lifestyle and family photographer based in Parksville, working with families across Qualicum Beach, Nanaimo, and surrounding Vancouver Island communities. My sessions are relaxed, natural, and lightly guided so nothing feels stiff or overly posed.
Most sessions take place outdoors or in natural light spaces where everyone can just be themselves. I focus on honest moments, real interaction, and creating images that feel warm, familiar, and true to your family.
I photograph families, children, couples, maternity, and personal portraits throughout central Vancouver Island.
Our photography is rich in life, from florals to animals, capturing the beauty from all around us is something we are passionate about. Our animal companions are enduring and important members of our family. Let a true animal lover capture a portrait of your pet which you will treasure for years to come. The natural beauty of Vancouver Island and the Cowichan Valley are the inspiration for our photography. Bring the natural world into your home with one of our archival quality, profesionally produced prints. At Maplewood Studio we enjoy every part of the creative process. Whether it be selecting the coloured paper to mat each photograph, to constructing the different elements to complete the card. We take pride in every step. Each card is an expression of that.
