A little Christmas magic... or shall I say Photoshop magic!

Happy Christmas to all, and to all a good night! #christmas2020 #babysfirstchristmas #ottawanewbornphotographer #robinleaphoto

Photo cubes are a unique way to display your favourite newborn or family portraits

Bittersweet post... Last newborn of 2020, and with the shutdown could be last newborn for a little while. This little lady was so good to me, I can't wait to share more from her gallery! It was a great session to end 2020!

I'm so excited to be getting into the Christmas spirit! Lots of new Christmas-themed props and outfits for December babies, stay tuned for more cuteness! #ottawanewbornphotographer #ottawababies #countdowntillchristmas #babysfirstchristmas #robinleaphoto

Did your kids miss out on seeing Santa this year? Surprise them with a photo of Santa holding a framed picture of them, and watch their faces light up when you tell them he chose THEM out of millions of kids ;) 14 different Santa templates available! Comment below if you'd like all the details!

This little cutie turns one today! Help me wish him a Happy Birthday!

I *may* have purchased a few new things on Black Friday... I'm in love with this moon prop, what do you think?! This little guy was the perfect model for me, slept like a dream!

Working on this sweet little one's gallery! I loved all the rich fall tones this session incorporated!

Definitely a favourite from the minis! Look at those expressions! I'm working hard on getting all the Christmas galleries out tonight, keep an eye on your inbox!

It feels like yesterday this little guy was in the studio for his newborn session and I was so excited to see him again!

How fun is this family!

One of my littlest participants and his family! The weather Gods looked down on us that day with 17 degree weather in November!

Christmas mini galleries are in full swing over here! This amazing family got my day started with a giant smile on my face!

Fall is such a special time to capture family photos! Leaves are certainly a highlight!

Did you know there are 3 newborn package options available? This one is called the Wrapped mini, where baby is swaddled in beautiful wraps and placed in gorgeous props with coordinating accents. I spend an hour tailoring sets the night before to suit parents' tastes!

A beautiful gallery of a new favourite location I scouted this year! Can't wait to go back again next year when the wildflowers return!

Wrapping up the last of the fall sessions, then onto Christmas mini galleries soon! This little guy had his virtual newborn session with me in May and I was so thrilled to finally meet him in person

I absolutely love with the colour combination this mama chose for her little angel! I customize every session to suit my client's tastes and colour preferences to ensure they love every single image of their gallery!

Today's snow was definitely a shock, but did you see the forecast for Saturday?! 17C and sunny!! It's the PERFECT weather for outdoor Christmas minis. So excited! #ottawafamilyphotographer #christmasminis #treefarmminis #ottawachristmasminis #ottawamoms #robinleaphoto #ottawaminisessions

Another beautiful family on a gorgeous fall day!

Even at 3 months old we got to incorporate some newborn-style poses! Babies are never "too old" in my studio!

This entire gallery makes me smile! How cute is she!?

Some sneak peeks from my recent Garden sessions

The bear bonnet, a client favourite!

Oh hello there!

When mama told me she had a forest theme for this little one's nursery, I knew I had to incorporate my little fox newborn prop!

When mama said she loved florals, I must admit I got a little giddy! I was just moving angles when this little angel cracked a smile, and I just barely caught it!

When COVID lockdown messes with your newborn session, you rock your baby milestone session 4 months later!

I've had a vision in my head of a gorgeous sunset maternity session in water, and I'm so excited that this beautiful mama brought my vision to life! Her entire gallery is heavenly and I can't wait to share more from her session!

With a little help from dad, we were able to achieve this pose safely with hands on baby! Did you know many newborn poses are achieved by merging 2 photos into one to remove hands that are used for support? When you invest in a trained professional, you are investing in your baby's safety.

Another beautiful family session

I usually only upload one or two from a session, but there are just too many cute ones to share!

I purchased so many new props just before shutdown and I am so excited to feature them in my newborn sessions! Check out this heart bowl and rose backdrop, perfect for this little sweetheart!

I love learning and growing with each passing year, and outdoor baby sessions is another bucket list item I've had the pleasure of crossing off the list! This sweet little angel was born right after COVID started, and I'm so glad we finally got to meet in person!

Sunsets and smiles, a photographer's dream! This family was so fun to work with, all while maintaining a safe distance!

Golden hour is what I love the most about outdoor sessions! If you'd like to book an outdoor session this summer, reach out and we can book you in!

First indoor session since my re-opening and I'm thrilled to welcome back babies into the studio! Please inquire if you have a newborn (or not so newborn!) and you'd like to book a styled session. So many new props and backdrops hoarded for months are ready to be showcased! (For the time being, maternity and family will remain outdoors).

Would you look at that smile! A little pre-cake smash portrait!

Another beautiful outdoor cake smash!

I love this tender moment between mama and baby and I'm thrilled with how well virtual sessions have been going! Dads are rocking the cellphones and mamas have been great at following posing direction over Zoom chat :) It's not easy but it's all worth it to capture these early days from a safe distance!

This heart bowl composite is a client favourite, and I can see why!
