It’s not every day you get to photograph the faces behind one of your local news stations! My work with CTV News Kitchener began in 2020, when journalists Heather Senoran and Spencer Turcotte reached out to update their headshots. We had a great shoot at my studio — so much so that they returned again in 2024 for a second round of photos.

Shortly after, I received a message from their news director, Daniel Cress, who shared how impressed the entire team was with the updated portraits. He invited me to photograph the full CTV News team in the same natural, professional style. I was thrilled for the opportunity.

With a portable studio setup in tow, I headed to the CTV studio and had an absolutely wonderful time working with their warm and talented staff. We captured a full set of individual headshots, along with group portraits of anchors Tony Grace and Leighanne Evans, joined by their (now former) weather specialist Will Aiello.

If you’re part of a media team, corporate group, or organization looking to bring consistency, personality, and professionalism to your branding — let’s talk! Quality headshots are an essential piece of making a strong first impression.
