The biggest question I get for newborn sessions - what if my baby won't sleep for the session!?

Easy - then they don't sleep.

I work with baby and ensure every one is comfortable, the room is warm enough, the atmosphere is calm, and everyone is relaxed. Sometimes it works out where baby falls asleep and let's us guide them there a variety of poses easy peasy. Sometimes they let their presence known and that they are wide eyed and don't want to miss a second of this party. And that's okay too. There are so many poses and angles we can use if they're awake or asleep.

What matters is that everyone feels comfortable. That you feel taken care of and relaxed. That you know I have got this and we are creating the perfect images for your family. I never want anyone to feel rushed, or that they left feeling like we didn't capture what they thought we would. Baby is in charge. They lead the way. They'll tell us what they're okay with and when the party ends. ;)

Also - I have six kids. Who are insanely busy. Who are full of non-stop energy and just LOVE being kids. I promise you that your baby's siblings do not intimidate me. I have the patience of ten moms and working with kids is my bread and butter. Toddler needs to have a teddy fall off my head in order to look at me, cool. Five year old grumpy pants needs to have a snack and do some cartwheels with me to get that energy out?! Done! The twelve year old feels like he's too cool for photos and this is all do dumb? I'll give him some jobs - he can help me on lighting and taking photos. Maybe he can take my social media content for me HAHA.

The thing is - I know kids. I know families. We do what it takes to have a great session. I've got you, mama.

Maternity sessions. Motherhood sessions. THESE are my favorite. Celebrating you and the amazing things your body can do. Through the changes and the seasons. Truly a miracle.

I specialize in creating sessions where you truly feel pampered. We will walk through everything together during pre-session planning - creating the perfect looks and outfits together. Client closet or your own wardrobe, both make great options. We offer hair and makeup I think all sessions should have - an investment in truly making sure you feel like your best. Then the fun part - choosing how you'd like to display your session. Wall art for your room? An album you can look through again and again? Tangible pieces that are heirloom quality and last to be passed through your generations is my specialty and I'm so glad I get to share those with you and your family.

Looking for a maternity photographer? I only take a few bookings per month so message me and we can get your questions answered.

It's a special day around here. 40 years around the sun and somehow it feels like it has flown by! Thank you for choosing me to photograph your family's memories and forever be a part of our family together. Cheers!

We have six kiddos earthside with us, and two littles watching over us. Sibling photos will forever remain my favorite connection photos. Watching your kids become big brothers and big sisters, seeing how your love grows larger for the next little one in your life... nothing better.

I'd love to see some siblings photos - from when they are babies or now that they're big! Let's see them below!

Let's chat newborn sessions - see if I can answer some of the most asked questions we get!

1. Do I need to bring anything to the session? Short answer - no! We have everything for baby - so many wraps, headbands, hats, outfits, etc. I will work with you to coordinate baby's sets with your outfits and have the perfect session looks. We also can work with your on your wardrobe selection - whether it's something from our client closet, or helping you shop (my favorite!) I can help you nail down exactly what you're going to wear.

2. What if I have a special item I want to incorporate? Can I do that? Absolutely!!! While the vintage 5ft teddy bear might not be the easiest to incorporate, I will totally work with you if it's special to you and you really want to incorporate it!

3. When should we book newborn photos? I suggest booking your due date into our calendar once you hit the second trimester. We book a 'due date window' and will firm up your date once baby is here. That gives us lots of time to create your session look together as well as secure your spot on our calendar.

Do you have any other questions you'd like answered? Let me know!

And another round of birthdays for our household - Isabella turns 12 today! Officially old enough to babysit (if anyone's looking, shes amazing!), and just got back from a wicked awesome time in Vancouver with her cheer leading team.

She's brilliant and empathetic, with an insatiable inquisitive mind that always needs to seek out the answers or how to do something. She's always learning something new, pushing herself to do hard things, and never gives up! She's also another firecracker in the house (I'm sensing a trend) and she is full of opinions and leadership. She cares deeply about this earth and the animals that live on it, and feels so deeply with every part of her.

She gives the absolute BEST hugs and is always up for a book and snuggle.

Happy birthday to our wonderful Isabella - 12 is going to be amazing!

Fun fact - I graduated Red River College Photography program the week after I had her - I missed one of my final exams because I was giving birth lol. I launched my business two months before that - and so we're celebrating 12 years as well!

Throwback to 2019 and this little bum. She is a firecracker, wild and fierce. She collects the worms in dirt, dresses to the nines with hair and makeup, tries to run her siblings lives, and demands your attention at the drop of a hat. She dives into books and gets lost in the fantasy worlds, and then builds a fort outside for her and her brother to play in. Dragons are her favorite animal - and don't you dare tell her they aren't real. Opinionated and sassy, she walks full force through life and will move mountains.

Happy 7th birthday Liliana - you're amazing and we love you!

Did you know that we take care of everything for your sessions? From step by step pre-planning with you, wardrobe guidance, client closets, hair & makeup, posing guidance, and artwork selection, you really don't have to worry about a thing.

As much as I love taking your photos, I love the entire process before and after the sessions just as much! Helping you bring the perfect vision together for your session, and watching you light up as you showoff the artwork on your walls, or flip through your curated albums with you... those are so special and exactly why I love what I do.

The baby snuggles are pretty amazing as well ;)

Do you have a wall in your house your kids want to see themselves up on? Let's chat!
