Photography by May Arason-Li bio picture
  • Hello!

    Thanks for stopping by. In case you didn’t know, I love photography and I am fortunate to be able to share my passion with you. I simply cannot imagine going through life without photographs - there are just so many reasons for taking photos. To remember, to relive, to share, to learn, to tell a story, to create, to feel... I could go on forever. The wonderful thing about photographs is that they are instantaneous. And as we change through life, so do the images we want to capture. I believe in capturing beautiful, modern images for modern families. More importantly, I want to capture the connection between family members. I care very much about getting to know my clients and having fun during our sessions. I am not trying to create the perfect image of you - rather, real images of genuine happy, silly, fun and tender family moments. This site features my most recent session along with some personal images peppered in. I am so thrilled to have met so many wonderful people and they have all inspired me in one way or another.

    Please enjoy the photos on this site and by all means, please feel free to get in touch with me if you think my style and vision matches yours.

Your changes to the website are fabulous!

Last but not least

My last session post for 2011 would not be complete without some photos of the kiddos. In the midst of the hectic fall shooting schedule, family life and training for a half marathon, it was my mission to capture my own family before the snow came. It’s amazing what a year makes! As a child, […]

Little bookworm

Little Dylan just turned one so we headed to downtown to the library where she got to hang out in the children’s books section and explore the area. Check out the fun we had and little Dylan with her big brown eyes! Happy birthday, Dylan! I hope year two is an amazing one!
