When to book your maternity session …
Maternity sessions are ideally booked between 32 and 35 weeks of pregnancy. We want your baby bump really showing and it is best not to wait until the end when most women are uncomfortable.

Where is your maternity session held …
Our maternity sessions are held at outdoor locations like a local park.

When to book your newborn session …
The best time to photograph your newborn is between 6-10 days to ensure the tiny, sleepy and curly newborn poses. It is never too early to book your newborn session, we make a tentative booking based on your due date and wait for you to contact us when your baby arrives. It is best to let me know with 24 – 48 hours once baby is born so we can schedule your newborn session.

Where is your newborn session held …
Sessions are held in our Kamloops photography studio located in Valleyview as I use studio lighting and I have access to all my props and equipment.

How long will the session take …
Our newborn sessions start @ 10 am and can last between 3 – 4 hours. This allows for plenty of time for soothing, nursing and calming baby, and gives you time to sit back and relax (or sleep) while your new bundle is being photographed.

What you receive with our newborn sessions …
Each session is customized to the colour/colours you select.
You will be given a link to an online password protected gallery of your images within 1-2 weeks of your session.
We offer a maternity/newborn package.
