Siblings, 8 Days New

In-home newborn sessions are some of my favourite sessions. They are some of my most popular sessions too. I think it's because as soon as your newborn is here you realize that it's easier when people come to you because getting out of the house suddenly takes foooorever!! Not to mention how stressful driving anywhere with a baby in a carseat can be. Oh I remember that dreaded stop light!! I remember pumping the brake or rocking my whole body back and forth causing the car to shake a bit! Anything to keep that baby from crying which often resulted in making my milk leak everywhere. This is not how a newborn sessions should start. And that is exactly why I love coming to the home. No need to bundle up and get in the car. I bring everything to you! We take our time, follow baby's lead, and have plenty of changes of clothes if we need. If siblings are involved, they get to just be in their home with their toys being themselves without the pressure of sitting quietly and not touching everything around the studio. And no joke, sometimes mom and dad will go lay down and take a nap while my camera and I make magic with their sweet little squishy newborn. And I don't mind. Even if that means I hang around for a little extra time to cuddle baby while they rest. I get it, you take advantage of every possible moment to sleep! Of course, my number one question about in home newborn sessions is, but what about the mess? Well, first, mess is life. In fact, mess is a sign of a very lived life! And it's impossible to stay tidy with a newborn. But regardless, I avoid photographing the mess. I work in small spaces. Pockets of light. You will have no idea that your home can look so good so messy! Here is a fine example of the small spaces I work in. Image A is a pullback of the scene that created image B.

And if you scroll down, you can see the pictures from when I spent the morning with this beautiful family in their home when their new little baby was only 8 days old. You can see right away that the other added bonus of an in-home session is the personal touch! The backdrop is very you and is very unique to anyone else's images! 

Thanks for looking! Continue on to my older posts or see more in-home sessions. 

Six Day Old Addison

I first met this little lady 6 days before these pictures were taken, because I documented her birth. Her parents are dancers, so they had this super sweet tutu that Addison so willing let us photograph her in. It was like a cozy nest! Even the cat was interested. I love when family pets make their way in to the pictures! These are my favourites from her newborn session. Can you believe that she just turned 6 months old!? So cute right?!

Autumn is Here!

It's my favourite time of year! The leaves are starting to change colour! The sweaters are coming out! Everyone is busy with school and a new routine. And so many people are getting ready for the many upcoming holidays between now and the new year! No wonder it's the busiest time of year for photoshoots!!

These pictures below are a few mini sessions I did last year in mid October! I am so excited to see these families again this year! I love my clients! I love seeing how much the children have grown from year to year! But unfortunately if you wanted a mini session and didn't book one, they sold out in 24 hours! Seeing as mini sessions are a very popular event, you may want to sign up for my newsletter this way as a subscriber you'll be notified of mini sessions first, and you'll get first dibs at booking them! However, not all is lost, I do have room for 4 more regular sessions this year, so contact me sooner rather than later because these will get booked up! 

This year is gonna be bonkers in the best way possible! Can't wait to see some of you again, and I can't wait to meet all these new families that have booked!!
