Maternity Session :: Sandy and Rakesh

Maternity Photographer – Richmond Hill

So how cute are these two? I love doing maternity sessions and remember the excitement when I did my own. We don’t necessarily feel at our best, but the excitement of adding to the family shows. I never believed in a pregnancy glow per sey, but I do believe that the love a family has for their child shows through.  With maternity sessions being focused on the bump, it really brings that out.  The sweet smiles, the excitement, the laughter. It really does make parents glow.

This family was awesome to work with. It felt like old friends, yet we just met. Their sweet demeanour made me wish the night wouldn’t end. That and we had the best light lol.  You know me and my golden light!

Can’t wait to meet their little one. I just know I’m going to fall in love!

Update: He is the cutest ever! Check out his session Here.

Newborn :: Viann

Richmond Hill Newborn boy

Newborn boys know how to steal the ladies hearts. This little guy was no different. When I met his parents at their maternity session, I knew they would have a perfect little sweet heart.  The whole family is soft spoken and calm. Something I don’t have enough of in my life lol. Anyone with small kids can agree! You can see their maternity session HERE.

He totally rocked his session and we were able to get sleepy and awake images. Not always the easiest thing to do.  His little eyes are the cutest and really glad we were able to capture them! I think it’s one thing I regret not getting when I did my own.  That and the tiny feet!

I’m not having baby fever (or at least I keep telling myself that), but I am really looking forward to having some more newborns in the studio.  At least I can get my baby cuddles out of the way! Know anyone excepting? Send them my way!

Newborn :: Ava

York Region Newborn Photographer

It’s a small world. I had no clue when this family contacted me that we actually live behind each other. Close enough that they can hear my crazy kids splashing in the pool all summer. Probably heard me telling the kids no to scream so much too! Anyone with daughters know that high pitch screech they do randomly.  I’m sure the whole neighbour hood has heard me begging them to stop making that ear piercing sound.  Anyway, it was great to officially meet this family and their newest addition.

With Covid, I have limited the number of newborn and milestone sessions I offer. We have been taking it seriously and especially with little ones, I want to be able to air out the studio and clean the props as best as possible.  I feel like I haven’t had baby snuggles in so long and could have just cuddled this little lady forever!

Milestone Session :: Sebastian

Milestone sitter sessions are quickly becoming some of my favourite sessions. There is just the right element of cuteness and unpredictability.  These little ones let their true personality shine and I can tell within minutes if we are going to get a work out of if parents are going to have a hard time choosing their images.

Sebastian is the sweetest little man. He was so cooperative and calm it almost seemed too easy.  Usually, we are up and down, left and right, fixing blankets and props.  I literally could have done 15 set ups with this guy and not even broken a sweat.  His sweet demeanour just made my heart melt.  That and his thighs. I love chubby thighs!!! And those lashes…. OMG those lashes. Because what girl doesn’t desire long lashes!

Milestones are a great way to capture all the little details of babies after then learn to sit.  Between 4 and 6 months are the best time and give us the most options for props and posing.  We all think about milestones being the ‘big’ ones meaning newborn and first birthday, but the time in-between is also momentous. These little ones learn to sit, crawl and even walk.  When you look back, wouldn’t you love to have captured these moments too?!?!

Newborn :: Jace

I said bring me all your newborn babies…… and poof they appear.

There is that moment your client tells you they love pirates. The following moment your head starts spinning because you love them too!  It makes me happy when people have ideas but trust my creativity to make it awesome.  This session was no excuse.  I was born for this.  Actually, I was born on talk like a pirate day so it was only fitting.

Then there’s that moment you realize you have the perfect vendor (Flirty Bambini) to make a pirate costume for a newborn.  Seriously can’t believe it all came together and so easy.  Baby Pirates are all sorts of amazing and this little guy nailed it!!!

So excited to have met this sweet family and can’t wait to see baby Jace grow!
