“Photography is a way of feeling, of touching, of loving. What you have caught on film is captured forever… It remembers little things, long after you have forgotten everything.” — Aaron Siskind
You’ve already done the hard work: building a life, weathering storms, finding your strength, and showing up – even when it wasn’t easy. You’ve earned this moment.
With stories worth celebrating, bodies worth honouring, and a fire that deserves to be seen, your experience at Studio Belle – Calgary’s most sought Photography Studio, is rooted in empathy and elegance. This isn’t just about photos. It’s about helping you see yourself the way those who love you most already do: strong, stunning, and completely unforgettable.
Our team brings a deep respect for the journey every client is on – combining luxury styling, expert guidance, and emotional storytelling to create portraits that feel like truth and look like art.
You bring the courage. We’ll bring the lens.
Come as you are. Leave as you’ve never seen yourself before.
You might be thinking that you don’t like your photos taken, or that you’re not photogenic. That’s ok. Our promise to you is an easy, relaxed and fun-filled portrait session with an experience you will not forget. We will help you feel and look your best.
We want to capture these magical moments today so you can have stories to tell tomorrow…imagine 30 years from today.

What clients are saying…
Caroline made me feel comfortable and relaxed. She was very accomodating and made us laugh and enjoy our session. The new portraits made me feel beautiful even being 38 weeks pregnant and not feeling like I am in my own skin.”
Caroline was great on helping with the preparation. On the photo session day, she was very patient with us and especially with my 2 year old boy. I felt confident and relaxed during the photo session, and the final photo album is a beauty!
The session was very uplifting and fun. I was nervous at first but Caroline made me feel confident and taught me to have fun with the shoot.. I really enjoyed being photographed it was a very uplifting moment in my life and I hope that women see my photos and feel that it is never too late to feel beautiful.
“I’ve never done before in fact I’ve never done a professional session before. I’m in my 50s not my 20s. I was petrified! But Caroline just has a way about her that makes you feel like it’s just an afternoon with the girls. The whole experience was exciting: The hair, the makeup and then seeing the pictures at the end and realizing that you really knew your stuff and how to pose someone to get their best.
I honestly didn’t know I could look like that.”
The type of portraits that I was looking from Caroline was to make me try to like myself. I disliked many parts of body, specifically unsecure about my scars. She made me comfortable in session and really knew which way to pose me to provide the most confidence. As soon as make up done she was ready the time just flew by laughing and having fun. Absolutely adored the results from the photo shoot I will hold them as a treasure for my lifetime. Gave me inspiration to work even harder and not to be so hard on myself everyday over the small things.
I’m usually not comfortable doing photo shoots but I loved my experience with Franctal Studio and my photos turned out better than I could have imagined! Very professional and a great experience overall with photos I am very proud to share. I have had so many comments on the photos. I highly recommend Franctal Studio.
I was very pleased with the process from start to finish. I received great preparation ahead of the shoot and was greeted and processed professionally. I’m not great in front of a camera and quite self-conscious. That is where Caroline really shined. She made me feel at ease and we got some great shots. Technically and socially Caroline did a fantastic job…
