I’ve always gravitated toward keeping things simple.

More and more, I find myself really sticking to neutrals and simple sets. And it’s intentional. When everything is toned down, the focus stays where it should be - on your baby.

This was the sweetest family 🥰
****December 2025 availability- 2 spots for newborn left****
  

After weeks of working nonstop, I finally forced myself to take a day off…and honestly, I should probably listen to myself more often. 😅

This past Saturday, I was able to meet so many wonderful families for my Holiday/Santa Mini Sessions. It’s hard to believe that there is just one more weekend of minis left and December is here! Then we’re back to babies! :)
  

The Christmas season always brings those long days, late night edits, and endless cups of coffee. As much as I love the holiday hustle, my heart misses the quiet joy of newborn sessions.
  

It is a gallery like this one that makes me wish I had no photo limit with Instagram lol

There is nothing like a cozy, in-home, lifestyle maternity session!
These sessions are all about comfort and connection - snuggling in bed, laughing in the kitchen, and savouring those sweet moments before baby arrives. No pressure… just love and warmth.

And yes…we definitely paused for a snack break because this mama’s current craving? Lindt chocolate bars!

Their first weeks as four….welcoming this sweet baby earthside has filled their home with even more love.

  

Rishi is ONE!!

For the longest time I’ve been wanting to convert my space to an all white space.

Finally, in July, we got to work and brought the vision to life! NO more paper back drops for me 😂 (unless we reallllllly need one). The space itself really embodies the simplicity I love, while giving us so much more light and allows for a variety of shoots.

Over the years, I’ve been inching closer and closer to minimalist cake smash sessions and this space allows us to really keep the focus on the child and let their personality shine through.

  

Go big or go home, right? For my very first session with multiples, the universe didn’t ease me in gently with twins… nope, straight to triplets! 👶👶👶

I wasn’t sure what to expect but I quickly learned that photographing three babies at once isn’t about perfection- it’s about patience, timing, and celebrating the little moments in between. It was busy, unpredictable, and completely worth it. I left this session with a full memory card and even fuller respect for their amazing parents (of 4 kids actually!).

Would I do it again?…..in a heartbeat!
