MaTERNITY Sessions
PREGNANCY IS A BEAUTIFUL TIME. IT IS SO EASY TO CAPTURE LOVE YOU HAVE FOR YOUR CHILD BECAUSE IT SIMPLY RADIATES FROM YOU.
This is a once in a lifetime chance to capture this moment in time and document the love and joy you have for your baby before they even arrive.
In this relaxed, special session we create the style that makes you most comfortable, whether that’s casual, ballgown whimsy, boudoir, or anything else you can imagine. You can bring your own outfits or choose from what’s in my Client Closet. The ideal time frame for maternity portraiture is between 28-34 weeks, so be sure to book ahead to have your choice of availability.
Take advantage of the exciting, special time right before your child comes into the world with images you can cherish for generations to come.

answers to commonly asked questions
WHEN DO MATERNITY SESSIONS HAPPEN?
Maternity sessions are best done between week 28 and 34 to ensure a nice, round bump. To ensure that you have the availability you want, I recommend booking early.
WHAT TIME OF DAY WILL MY SESSION TAKE PLACE?
Photography is all about lighting. I prefer to do our sessions when the light is best. For outdoor sessions, that means early in the mornings before sunrise or in the evening an hour before sunset.
WHERE WILL MY SESSION TAKE PLACE?
You have the choice of an in-studio session or outdoors. Our studio is located at 263 Adelaide Street West. The studio has a rustic, bohemian feel and is equipped with everything you need for your session with me. For outdoor sessions, I can recommend various locations in the GTA depending on your vision.
WHAT SHOULD I WEAR FOR THE SESSION?
I want you to look and feel your best, so I do personal consultations to determine what you and your family should wear for your session. I also have a large Client Closet of women’s dresses sized XS-XL and clothes for your little ones sizes newborn to 5 years. These are available to you at no extra cost with your booking.
HOW DO I BOOK A SESSION?
The best way to book is to use our online booking form. This will collect the non-refundable $100 deposit and take any information we need to get started. Then we will begin the consultation process and book your date.
SHOULD I HAVE MY HAIR AND MAKEUP DONE BY A PROFESSIONAL?
I highly recommend professional hair and makeup. It adds so much to your session and the results are always excellent. You won’t regret adding this to your day. Our favourite place in Toronto is Blush Parlour and their team of amazing stylists that come to you.
HOW DO I CHOOSE MY PICTURES?
My online proofing system will allow you to select your images and send them to me for editing. The number of pictures you can choose depends on the number of images included in your package.
HOW LONG WILL IT TAKE TO RECEIVE MY FINAL PICTURES?
Your final, edited images will be sent to you via a Pixieset gallery within two to three weeks.
WHEN CAN I SEE MY PICTURES?
You will receive an online gallery within two days of your session with approximately 70-100 of your best images. Then you can choose your favourites for me to edit.
CAN I PRINT MY IMAGES MYSELF?
Yes! All our sessions include retouched images and a print release, so you can print these images with ease (or send them to relatives far away and they can print them locally). We offer professional prints through your online gallery and photo books upon request.
