Family Portraits: Because Time Does Not Stand Still

Family portraits become more meaningful with time. Years later, they bring back forgotten details — the way your children laughed, how everyone fit together in that season of life, and the emotions tied to those moments. They turn fleeting memories into something lasting your family can revisit for generations.

At Darian Drake Photography, we do family photoshoots both in studio against backdrops as well as on location in scenic parks, walking trails, fields, or anywhere that suits your family best.

Did you know we also have ties to private print labs throughout the GTA? If you're looking to make memories and then mount them on the wall, we have you covered with ship to your door convenience.

Meet Your Photographer

With over five years of experience behind the lens, I’m a passionate photographer who truly loves connecting with people and capturing their best moments. As a proud family man, I spend my time supporting my wife and two kids, while also enjoying everything my community has to offer in Whitby. You’ll often find me stopping by Village Bake Shop for a great German soft pretzel.

I’m known for being outgoing, approachable, and easy to work with—someone who enjoys a good conversation as much as creating stunning headshots and portraits. Photography isn’t just my career, it’s something I genuinely love, and that energy shows in every session.

Our Service Area

Our services are done on site, saving you the hassle of coming to a studio. We are proud to serve Whitby and the rest of the Durham Region as well as Peterborough and all surrounding areas. If you need high end photography brought to you, but are outside our stated service area, please contact us. We are often willing to accommodate those outside our area.
