Couple shots, in studio maternity, can be fun too! I love this shot... it reminds me of some sort of ad... and I just love her smile

Prelockdown maternity glam... GAHH... YOU GUYS. She is glowing perfection. Every time I get to sit down and edit ...I swear I fall in love with in studio maternity more and more and more... who knew that was even possible!

My most favourite sibling shot! Hey everyone! I hope y'all are hanging in there . I have taken the last couple of weeks off of editing, to try to get into a groove with both of my girls home and their online schedules (although, we try not to stress about it too much, as long as they're completing their online work). My youngest is SK, so I'm even less worried about the online portion for her--she REALLY misses her friends and is struggling with that part of it Anyways, I have a small backlog of unfinished galleries to finish over the next couple of weeks.. so stay tuned for a few gorgeous maternity sessions and a couple more newborns

I get asked almost every newborn session, if I love newborns the most. And while the answer is always YES! they are definitely my most favourite sessions ever, this age is a very close second. I would say it's tied with studio maternity. I never get bored of looking at my milestone sessions. They always look like dolls. I love their little details so much and it is just about this age that their personalities really start to shine. By the time they come back to me for their cake smashes a few months later, most of them are already walking and running from me .. so it's this age, that is my close second to newborns. Not to mention, I love shopping for these adorable little outfits for my client closet

I've had a pretty even amount of boys and girls so far this year.... but, have noticed about 6 of my newborns who are booked in later this year are boys! lol. I am always on more of a boy streak I think. I also have a handful of parents who haven't found out, which means it's a surprise for me too! This little lady and her smirk

Milestone set, before the cake smash today. Cake smashing with a babe who doesn't like to be dirty, results in the best faces ever

Simple all white or all black studio maternity sessions are the best, or in this case, we did both! SO timeless and beautiful and I get to meet their little bub in a few short weeks, for some pictures!

Did you know, that if you book a Heirloom newborn session with me, an image like this is included!? It can be whimsical, magical, or more artistic like this one--the possibilities are endless! They are ALWAYS the best addition to a nursery, and I always coordinate my composite images to the theme of your nursery. 85% of my clients book my top tier, heirloom newborn package, when they are choosing their newborn shoot! It is what I'm known for, it includes parent and sibling ...shots, a client gift (new this year!) and freshly baked pastries and customized cookies from my good friend at Wallflour Bake Shop. I know a lot of people say this, but, it is very true-- I just love what I get to do every single day, so, so, so much! Thank you to all of my wonderful, amazing clients, for allowing me to capture your babies from belly and beyond.

I love when parents come in and are so "go with the flow"... and let me try new things and this is the end result. I always love a good black and white, but this is my new favourite parent shot ever!! Dad even volunteered for some shirtless tattoo pics with his little man!

Look at these gorgeous mamas-to-be The COVID shut down almost made me miss getting to capture this belly! Krystal is due in 2 weeks, so we lucked out!! Amanda and I went to school together... and this is photography, once again, coming full circle! Reconnecting me to some amazing people! ... Nothing beats in studio maternity... I can never get enough!
