All Natural Motherhood & Baby Studio: Oshawa Maternity & Baby Low Tox Living Photography Studio
Being a new mom is pretty scary and overwhelming at times right? I mean, there is so much information thrown at you from day one and everyone and they're Auntie has some words of wisdom (or old wives tales) for you. Hee hee. And let’s not get started at the fake news online.
Being a new mom is pretty scary and overwhelming at times right? I mean, there is so much information thrown at you from day one and everyone and they're Auntie has some words of wisdom (or old wives tales) for you. Hee hee. And let’s not get started at the fake news online.
I’ll tell you one thing about Motherhood that isn’t scary though. Knowing you aren’t alone. Having a community of friends and family that you can trust and that genuinely care about you. Finding you tribe, person or people (whatever that looks like) is something we all need. We are social creatures and let’s face it. Life is so much better when you have a support system in place. Sharing what works, swapping recipes, going out for coffee/tea dates it’s the health, mental and wellness you and your family need. Because let me tell you, that first year goes by so fast!
When it comes to our children (and our own wellbeing) we only want the best. Making little improvements everyday to live a better, healthier quality of life is something I am very passionate about. Just like when I say you are welcomed into the studio, you are my family. I take care of you while you are here as if you were my own. If you’ve had a session with me you’ll know that rings true ;)
Before your arrive at the studio I run through a routine that I’ve been doing for years. Starting with a deep clean, removing all items from the studio. Floors are first, I use Young Living’s Thieves Household Cleaner. It’s all natural, plant based, ultra concentrated and non abrasive. I use it on all floors and surfaces, change table, high chair, door handles, toys etc. All throughout my home. No residue, no synthetic fragrances, no harsh chemicals and safe for children and pets too. Plus it smells heavenly, which aids in knowing that your experience is healthy, beautiful and welcoming for you and your little ones.
It gives me peace of mind as a mother and business owner that I am giving you the best service and experience you deserve. Low Toxic Living doesn’t have to mean a complete overhaul overnight. It’s making small changes to work towards a healthier, cleaner lifestyle. I’ve been using Young Living daily for the last 10 years and absolutely it. I share what works not only for me and my family, but because I know you and your family will love it too!
Are you curious or ready to try Theives Household Cleaner on your own? It’s pretty simple and not complicated at all (who has time for that) follow this link and you can try for yourself and take advantage of the wholesale prices (24% discount). It’s that easy…plus your free membership means you’ll be attached me to. Think of it like a Costco Membership (but FREE!)
There is zero fuss, nothing is locked in when you become a member. You can come and go if you’d like. But I have a feeling you will love this new cleaner way of cleaning your home and or work environment too!
As always, I am just a text or DM away. You can always, email me too. Reach out and let’s chat if you have questions, about anything.
Serving you Motherhood and Milestones with a whole lotta love :)

Why have a Baby Milestone Session: Oshawa Toronto Baby Studio Photographer
Why bother having a Baby Milestone session? Well mama, those chubby fingers and toes won’t stay like that. The cute baby feet and way their fingers curl into a fist will be crawling all over the floor before you know it. If they aren’t already doing so. Seriously, they grow FAST! Documenting this first year and stages you love is something I know you won’t ever regret. Plus think of it this way, these photographs will grow in value year after year. I promise.
When do I book a Baby Milestone session?
Baby Milestone sessions are typically done between 6-8 months and 9-12 months of age. If you’ve had a Maternity session with us and are planning to document your little bundle of love these are amazing ages to photograph. I would put money on it that baby has learned a new skill or two. I’d love to see what that is and document it for you to remember. Babies are so sweet and silly that even playing peek a boo is made into a game while they are here. My studio is relaxes, bright and welcoming. A welcoming environment for babies to feel safe and can let their personalities shine through.

Baby Milestone- Leo
Meet Leo,
His stunning mama and dad came in to celebrate his arrival after we reopened from yet another province wide lockdown. A couple Maternity session was our initial booking. Since we couldn’t get that done we waited till Leo was a little bigger. Mom and dad are from Brazil and had planned to head south for 3 months to be with family. So we made sure to get a baby session in for them all prior to.
This little guy was so alert and cuddly. Loved hanging out with his mama but I could already tell that he was a daddy’s boy ;)
I mean…just look at that adorable gummy smile with Daddy. Soooo cute.
Thank you David, Livia and Leo for hanging out in the studio with me that day. I had an amazing time chatting with you and giggling at Leo’s amazing personality and expressions.
Have an amazing trip and we will see you when you return in the New Year!
xo
She's one year's old!
I seriously love my job! No…like seriously love it! Especially when it connects me to such amazing people who have little people that are equally as amazing. ;)
This little pudding’ is Audrey. She came in for her 1st Birthday celebration with her big sister. If you ever wonder what our Baby sessions are like, think of fun, snack breaks, speed and silliness. From time to time there are they shy ones too. But rest assured we take the time to let baby adjust to new surroundings.
Dance, Play, Pout, be sassy, throw tantrums and scream…ya know..the usual. And then in comes big sissy asking for hugs and kisses.
Of course we couldn’t miss the opportunity to capture this gorgeous girl. Meet sweet big sister Emery. The most adorable smile and so kind hearted. This girl is going places I tell ya.
She showed off some dance moves and her free spirited nature. I mean…soooo cute!
These two little ones had a blast. But what killed me was the poses and dancing we got from Audrey at the end of her session. Cause ya know…snacks are life right?
Look at that cheesy grin. Haaa…I think she was smelling it.
mmmmmm lol
See you soon sweeties… Thank you for hanging in the studio!
How to add florals to your cake smash session: Petra King Photography | Maternity + Baby + Wedding Photographer
Ready for another adorable cake smash session?
Meet Paulina. When her gorgeous mama brought her into the studio for her session, my heart instantly melted. She was a little timid at first but quickly came around and put on a whole new level of her personality that had us both giggling.
Every single time…portraits such as these that are classic, clean and timeless speak to my soul. The innocence, simplicity and ok let’s face it…cute babies and chubby cheeks and piercing eyes. It’s as if they are wiser beyond their age right?
As with all of my cake smash sessions we concentrate on just baby before we dive into the cake. Below is a collection of Paulina. Enjoy…
Paulina’s cake was created from the ever talented Danielle at Sweetery.ca. The equally stunning blooms that adorned her cake are from our girl Lisa over at Aspen Florist. Did you know that you can add sweets or florals to ANY collection? Check out our vendors for more information and to see what packages you can add on!
Adding florals to cake smash sessions can elevate your session, but there are a few things you should be mindful of.
Work with a Professional Florist who listens to the clients needs and can create the right look and fit for the size of the cake.
A florist (like Aspen Florist) who is obsessed over details just as much you are
Can arrange and style blooms on the cake for you so that it’s done properly and not randomly placed.
To help ease with the stress of planning your baby’s First Birthday Milestone session we also include a baby wardrobe. By all means, please feel free to bring along an outfit that is sentimental to you if you’d like baby to be photographed in it beforehand.
Miss Paulina was oh so delicate and dainty and hardly made a dent in her cake lol but as the saying goes, it is better to be over prepared than not right?
Happy First Birthday Paulina! Love you sweet girl and can’t wait to see you back in the studio soon.
Thank you mom for celebrating with us, we know you will enjoy these gorgeous memories!

Baby Paxton
This sweet little boy came into the studio with mom and dad after we were unable to have our maternity session done on multiple dates. But as the saying goes, things happen for a reason. For this beautiful mama and her boys, it was such an emotional session.
Absolutely love this image of Paxton and Daddy…
Earlier that year Paxton lost his grandfather suddenly and like any loss in the family, it hits you hard. So in honour of him, we dedicated this session in his memory and I know he would have been so touched and proud.
As your family grows, we remember. We celebrate life. As it is right now, and for those that have gone before us. Document these memories with gorgeous portraits that your own family can cherish and pass down from generations to come.
I mean…just look at this little face. How cool will it be for his OWN children to see him at this stage?
Thank you D & C for celebrating and remembering Grandpa. I know he is looking down from heaven with adoration and pride.
