Flower Farm Mini Sessions 2022 – Now Booking!

Mini Session – York Region Flower Farm

This year’s Flower Farm Mini’s are half sold out! Don’t wait to book your spot as they are limited.  Due to popular demand for golden hour I have limited each night to just three spots. If you are hoping for a little earlier please contact me HERE for more info. The barn has the cutest corner with vines, flowers and obviously old stone and wood. It’s super pretty and you don’t need to worry as much about the sun.

Country Cut Flowers is an adorable family run flower farm in York Region. It has more types of flowers than I can count (and certainly more than I can name). With rolling hills, sun setting in the background, and fields of mixed flowers, it’s like you’re in your own hallmark movie. Kind of unreal and totally stunning. Selfishly, this is my favourite place to photograph families!

Fun little fact – You can book tickets to cut your own flowers! Check out how HERE

York Region Photographer – specializing in family, maternity and newborn

There is a season between summer and fall that I love. Technically it’s fall, but it’s early fall when leaves haven’t changed yet. I agree the fall colours are gorgeous, but I love my greens. Like really love them.  So during this brief change of seasons, I try to book as many sessions as possible. The golden glow, the soft breeze, the perfect combo of everything that makes families happy.

There is a spot I found one day when I was wandering. No I’m not one to hike or even go for walks, but when I’m out, my head is on a swivel.  Just ask my husband about my rubber necking when we drive. There are so many potential spots for sessions, just requires some imagination and a little trust.  This location is just that.  Off the beaten path, but totally worth the extra effort. These logs, the sun poking through behind, the dirt path and the tree lined road that takes you there. I’m dying to go back.

Twins Photographer – family session at Country Cut Flowers

I get a lot of clients wanting studio sessions for their little ones. They think confined space will make it easier and less for them to get into.  That’s where I disagree. Kids are more like themselves when they can explore and run. When they are allowed freedom and don’t have giant lights in their faces.

This 2 year old duo definitely gave me a good work out. It’s hard enough to chase one small child, try two!  If you have twins I’m sure you’re laughing right now.  When one was happy, the other wasn’t. When one wanted up, so did the other. When one didn’t want to sit, time for the other to jump up and run away.  All that being said,  how stunning is this session. Their little faces are beaming and you would never know how much a workout this was.

I love when parents let me go with the flow. Trying to control kids is next to impossible. Any parent knows that. Yet for some reason, myself included, we think during the session things will be different lol. I’ve done a dozen sessions with my own family and it wasn’t until last year that I just let it go and went with it. Not the easiest thing to do, but I love how natural the images are. How they reflect my kids at this time in their life. My hope is for everyone to just go with it. Trust me to capture your family exactly as you are.
