Melissa Pereira Photography

Melissa Pereira Photography Melissa Pereira is accredited with the Professional Photographers of Canada, and specializes in custom and creative maternity, newborn, & child portraits.

When you’re expecting a child, the way time passes seems to change. At times, the nine months of pregnancy seem infinite but, upon looking back, the time passes in the blink of an eye. As a maternity, newborn, and child photographer, I know that capturing these fleeting moments is one of the most precious gifts we can give ourselves and our children. I myself am a wife and mother of three beautifu

l children. The experience of pregnancy, childbirth, and motherhood not only changed my personal life forever, but gave me inspiration for my professional career path. I photographed every moment after my first son arrived, and started a professional hobby with the arrival of my second child. After giving birth for a third time, my passion for photography fully ignited, and I haven't looked back since. Photography truly is my passion and I am thankful that I have the ability to pursue it daily. The heart to me of an image, is emotion. I create a timeless print of the innocence and peacefulness in a baby, the playful love of an infant, and the joy and enthusiasm that emanate from young children. It is my goal to freeze time for a second so my clients are able to look back and remember the happy times and the love they felt as their family grew. As a mother and photographer, I am able to see and capture the emotion and connection that exists in each moment between parents and children. Capturing these moments that pass all too quickly makes me truly feel with all of my heart, that I am doing what I was born to do. I would be honoured to capture those special moments for you and your family.

Happy International Women’s Day! 💜✨

Today, I celebrate the two incredible young women I have the privilege of raising—my beautiful daughters. Watching them grow into strong, kind, and fearless individuals fills me with so much pride. Every day, they inspire me with their resilience, determination, and the way they navigate the world with confidence and grace.

I also want to take a moment to express my gratitude to all the amazing women in my life—friends, family, and the inspiring women I’ve connected with here on this platform. .phototips has given me the opportunity to uplift and empower women through photography, helping them see their beauty, strength, and confidence in every shot. Thank you for being a part of this journey, for your support, and for the way you show up for yourselves and others.

To every woman out there—keep shining, keep pushing boundaries, and keep lifting each other up. The world is better because of you! 💖

It’s been such an incredible honour to capture these beautiful memories for this family, from their first-born daughter, then their second baby girl and to their most recent addition, a sweet baby boy. 🥰🐶 Each newborn session has been even more special with the family’s beloved dog by their side, lovingly included in every milestone.

This pup has been right there at each session, offering love and snuggles during every photoshoot. It’s been such a joy to witness their bond grow over the years, and to be able to freeze these cherished moments in time.

Here’s to celebrating not just the newborn milestones but the furry siblings who make them even more special! 🐾👶
