Welcome & hello
I am Angelina Aristodemo. I was born and raised in Toronto into a beautiful Italian family. My parents are immigrants from Italy and were both professional tailors. Clothing and fashion were a part of my day to day. When invited to an event my first thoughts are what am I going to wear? I have been a professional lifestyle photographer for over two decades but who's counting. My love for photos and art was there from the start. My favorite pastime as a child was looking at old photos from my parents' childhood in Italy; those timeless nostalgic photos have never gone out of style for me.
I am a collector of books. Actually a big collector of art books. Whatever the occasion, adding to my collection is a must. In fact I have collected so many books that I fully embrace the practice of Tsundoku - a term that translates as “leaving a book unread after buying it, typically piled up with other unread books.”
In my professional world, I photograph people/portraiture, objects & places. I hope to infuse a style and approach to my work that is as nostalgic as the photos I viewed as a child.

FAMILIES AND GENERATION
My photography isn't just about capturing moments; it's about capturing the essence of family to create timeless images. Working closely with families, I become more than just a photographer—I become a part of their journey. I've worked closely with families over the generations and developed close relationships that allow me to document not just milestones but all special family moments with a more personal touch. These bonds I've created make my clients feel at ease in front of the camera so that I can capture not just faces, but the bonds, emotions, and stories that bind generations together.
