Newborn studio sessions are beyond easy for you from the start to the end when you have beautiful memories of this very special time! We do all of the hard work and all you need to do is bring in that sweet little baby. The studio is custom designed with everything we need at our fingertips to create beautiful art work for you to treasure. I know right now with Covid playing a huge part in our daily lives it may seem a little daunting to bring your little one to the studio. To put your mind at ease we have a very thorough Covid Operational Plan in place and a number of sanitizing procedures in between each client who visits the studio. The Operation Plan can be viewed HERE. The studio is also completely separate from our family home with a private entrance and parking right in front of the door. There is a nice cozy area for you to sit and be comfortable with easy access to viewing the session while you relax. The studio also includes a dedicated washroom. We have a lovely collection of wraps, blankets, fur rugs, knit blankets, buckets, beds, baskets and so much more to custom design the session to fit your home decor. Not to mention a beautiful selection of carefully curated outfits from newborn to toddler all available at no extra charge. Don't worry if it all looks a bit overwhelming, between discussions with you and using your answers from our questionnaire we have most of this all set up prior to your arrival with a few options to choose from while we progress through the session. As you can see we take care of it all and never leave you wondering what the next steps are. Following your session you will be scheduled back in for your Reveal appointment where we will once again guide you through the process of selecting the products that best fit your family home.

Double fun with brothers in the studio!!! Love these boys and their lovely parents. It all started with an engagement session, onto a wedding, a very special snowflake session and then it was all about the boys! They are on the Baby Plan and I can't wait until the next one!
I'm certain their cake smash will be a blast :) I love having returning clients in the studio! They know how I work and I know the family dynamic so it's a win, win for both of us. This sweet little boy has incredible parents and a sweet big brother to grow up with and I can't wait until his milestone session in a few months.
All babies are adorable but this little nugget took it to a whole new level :)
He was a dream to work with and is beyond adored by his parents! The best part...... he's on the Baby Plan so I get to watch him grow this year and next. The baby plan is the perfect way to document that first year from the newborn session right up until we finish with a fun outdoor family session. 1st Birthday are such an amazing milestone with so many changes in just one short year!
From those first few days of counting fingers and toes with your sweet little newborn to that first baby smile! You know the one, when you know it's truly pure joy at seeing your face first thing in the morning or from blowing kisses on a tummy. Then before you know it someone is sitting on their own, then onto crawling and possibly walking. Blink and you have transitioned from a newborn to a toddler in an instant. Their 1st birthday is a celebration for the entire family :) Getting caught up blogging and had to share this handsome little man's newborn session! He was adorable and I loved this colourful session! We even captured a couple of sweet smiles for mom and dad :) These adorable felted little bears are always a hit and there will soon be a few more options available in the studio. They are the perfect size for those tiny little newborns :)
This spring was one no one could have predicted and sadly some families had to wait a few months to get photos of their new little ones. Newborns arrive by their own schedules regardless of what is happening in the world but with a few slight changes and some adjustments
we created some sweet memories for those families. Baby photos will always be treasured and will bring you back to the days of counting fingers and toes and that sweet baby scent. We are back!
I will admit in the beginning being closed gave me some much needed time to get caught up on some behind the scenes things that I never had the time to truly dive into. The biggest was a huge office reno that I'm totally in love with but...... I missed working, I missed the newborns, I missed the siblings and chatting with Mom and Dad. I missed working more than I could have ever imagined and to be back in the studio working has been amazing. The first few weeks were crazy busy as we caught up on sessions that had to be postponed on top of little ones who arrived while we were closed. This adorable little nugget was one of the first back in the studio and she was adorable! She set the standard high for being the perfect sleepy baby! Welcome to the studio! I have a few changes that will be implemented here in the studio and some will be permanent while others will be lifted when we are back to normal. Well, our new normal I guess :) One of the biggest changes will be my assistant and I wearing masks during your session along with frequent hand washing (hand washing was already always in practice but will now be done throughout the session). The studio has always been cleaned prior to each session but we will now be increasing that to include sanitizing of all door handles and hard surfaces. Another big change has been the addition of a UV Towel warmer which has the ability to sanitize all wraps, receiving blankets, outfits and hats prior to each use. If you, or your children, have a runny nose or cough we ask that you reach out to reschedule in a week or two. No one will be allowed in the studio with any symptoms including myself and my assistant, we will make allowances for those with seasonal allergies, though you will be required to wear a mask. Now on to the not so fun stuff, and please keep in mind most of this will be lifted once we are given the all clear. The goal is to gain steps instead of set backs and therefore we must be extra cautious at this time. All payments will be done via e-transfer or credit and if this isn't possible reach out and we can discuss options :) Only immediate family will be allowed to join you for the session. If siblings need to be picked up (so they don't have to stay for the entire session) we will require a call or text from the car picking them up to let you know they have arrived and the children will be taken to them. Shoes, coats, jackets and sweaters will remain in the entrance but all items necessary for your children may be brought into the studio. The last change is no outside props/blankets/items can be photographed with your children or allowed in the studio. Comfort items for your children will be allowed as long as they are cleaned prior to arrival. These steps are in place to ensure we continue to move forward in this battle with Covid-19 and not have to be placed back on our current restrictions again. We can't wait to see you in the studio!
I thought I would put together a few links for those who follow my page and have children at home with all of the recent closures. These are just a few links I found for children of various ages to help them stay entertained and not have a shortage of wine. I haven't checked all of them out and I'm hoping none of the crafts require toilet paper! Let's be honest that stuff is worth gold these days :)
