Meet the Photographer
Hey, i'm sidney karchie
My journey into photography began with a deep-seated passion for capturing the raw beauty of wildlife and nature. Over the years, this love for the natural world has expanded into the art of creative portraits. Now, I'm thrilled to extend that same passion and artistry to lifestyle and branding, helping you document life's most precious, authentic, and important moments.
At Sidney K Photography, everyone is welcome. I am committed to creating a comfortable and joyful experience for all, and proudly offer LGBTQ+ friendly services. My goal is simple: to create beautiful, lasting images that genuinely reflect your story.

"We truly cannot say enough amazing things about Sidney and our experience with her during [our] newborn photoshoot. From the moment she walked in, she made us feel so welcomed, comfortable, and cared for. As first-time parents, we were honestly unsure about getting newborn photos done, but Sidney completely changed that for us and turned the entire experience into something so special and memorable. She took such incredible care not only with Lainey, but with us as parents too. Her patience, kindness, and calming presence made us feel at ease the entire time. You can genuinely tell how passionate she is about what she does and how much love she pours into every session. She paid attention to every little detail and made sure we were always comfortable, included, and enjoying the experience. Sidney has such a special gift — not only for photography, but for creating moments that families will cherish forever. She captured our sweet girl so perfectly and gave us memories that we will treasure for a lifetime. Looking back at these photos already brings so much emotion and happiness. We are beyond grateful for Sidney and everything she did for our family. She made something we were nervous about become one of the most exciting and meaningful experiences for us as new parents. If you are considering booking with her, do it — you will not regret it. She is truly amazing at what she does, and we couldn’t thank her enough for being part of such a precious chapter in our lives 💕"

You can honestly tell from the moment you meet her that she is such a pure genuine soul. She is beyond talented and loves what she does. She will not make you feel rushed, and she is willing to work inside and outside the box. She has a very creative outlook at photography.

"Where do I even begin!? Sidney has such a creative picture perfect mind. She will get right down on the rocky shore to get the perfect shot without a hesitation. A true perfectionist in her craft to make sure the vision comes out as intended. Worked with me through my shoot, and made me see how freaking strong I am!! Did I mention she has the most empathetic and caring heart?
Ps her editing skills are absolutely insane cause it turned out to be such a crowded day at bridal veil falls and not a single person was left after she worked her magic on these photos!"

"Sidney K Photography is a lovely photographer. She was even willing to come to us, travelling 2 hours from Sudbury to Elliot Lake. Sidney had great patience and was so gentle when posing our 5 day old baby. She let us take a few breaks to feed and change her. My cat even joined the photoshoot. I’m OBSESSED. I’ve never gotten professional family pictures before and they turned out so good, I’ll have to print every single one as they turned out amazing. My step mom also wanted some shots edited in black and white and Sidney happily edited them. I’d highly suggest Sidney for a photoshoot as she’s so easy to trust in capturing those precious moments."

"Sidney is amazing! My daughter has a disability where she uses a wheelchair and a cane, and she wasn't sure if she would be able to have a photo of her alone standing. Sidney made it work and ‘made her dream come true’.
Sidney is professional, understanding, compassionate, and really listened to what my daughter wanted to see in her photos. 10/10 would recommend for any future photos!"
