Your baby’s safety and comfort are always my very first priority — as both a photographer and a mother (and now a proud Baba), I understand just how precious and fragile these early days truly are. When you place your little one in my care, you can rest assured that every detail has been thoughtfully prepared with gentleness, intention, and respect for your baby’s needs.
Every item in my newborn client closet — from the tiniest bonnet to the softest wrap — is thoroughly sanitized and laundered using gentle, baby-safe products before and after each session. Each piece is then carefully stored in a clean, climate-controlled space here in my Paris, Ontario studio, ready to embrace your baby in warmth and comfort.
As an accredited newborn photographer with the Professional Photographers of Canada (PPOC), I follow the highest standards in newborn handling, posing, and safety. Years of hands-on experience have taught me how to read a baby’s cues, adjust slowly and gently, and always work at their pace — because your little one’s well-being will always matter more than any pose or prop.
I’ve spent years curating my collection of wraps, outfits, and handmade accessories from trusted artisans who share my commitment to quality, safety, and craftsmanship. Each item is selected not only for its beauty, but for how it feels — soft against delicate skin, breathable, comforting, and never overwhelming.
You can truly relax during your session knowing your baby is safe, cozy, and cared for as if they were my very own. From the first outfit to the final pose, every wrap, every touch, and every moment is guided by love — the kind of love only a mother understands.
Every newborn session includes access to my lovingly curated client closet—filled with handcrafted, timeless pieces made for the tiniest clients. From soft sleepers and vintage-inspired rompers to delicate bonnets and heirloom knits, each piece is chosen to complement my warm, rustic style.
All garments are ethically sourced and handcrafted by trusted Canadian vendors, with a few treasures from the UK and The Netherlands. You don’t need to bring a thing—each item is clean, cozy, and ready to make your portraits timeless.
Sessions take place in my cozy Paris, Ontario studio, where I’ll help you choose outfits that reflect your family’s style and story.
Because your baby deserves more than a cute outfit—these are the little details that make each image a forever memory.
