De ja vu_Oshawa_Whitby_Newborn_Baby_Photorgapher_Petra_King_Photography

A little over 2 years apart but oh my goodness I can’t get over how much alike some siblings are. I have had the absolute pleasure and honour of working with this beautiful mama and her sweet family for the last few years and was so excited when she told me she was expecting baby #2.

Fast forward to last month and as soon as I saw her second daughter I literally said…WOW! Now I know I have touched base on this subject recently but it’s SOOO cool watching my families grow and come back to visit.

Introducing Evelyn…

This sweet little one held on till the last 15 minutes of her session. Cluster feeding, cuddles and curious. All completely normal during a newborn session and as always we go with the flow. However when her eyes were too heavy to stay open we were sure to capture her for mom and dad and big sister too.

ONE_Oshawa_Durham Region_Floral_Baby_Milestone_Photographer_Petra_King_Photography

Over this past year I have had the pleasure of working with so many amazing moms, friends, new customers and brides from Aspen Florist. It never ceases to amaze me how much I love working with my clients and being able to journey with them as they grow their little families.

Meet Isla, she just turned ONE. This sweet little pudding I have had the utmost pleasure of watching and documenting her as she has grown in her short life already. Thank you Amy for allowing and trusting us tp do so for you. I am sure you recognize her from our posts on Instagram and know that she is not a stranger to our feeds. I mean how could we not post and share. Just look at that face!

For Isla’s First Birthday we celebrated her session with some gorgeous peonies, greenery and soft pastel tones which were STUNNING. I don’t know how Lisa from Aspen Florist does it but she nails the colours and floral combo’s with our sweet littles every single time. I swear she has ESP lol. Here is a sampling of what we captured that day!

Simply Motherhood Sessions: Oshawa_Bowmanville_Toronto_Petra_King_Photography

Our 2nd Annual Mother’s Day Sessions were a success!! A HUGE thank you to all the mamas, gorgeous littles and siblings that behaved that day lol. I know all too well how stressful pictures can be. Let alone MOM stepping out in front of the camera to join in. But…our calm and bright enviornment in the studio usually helps with the moods of babies and children. Pair that with taking the time to allow them to warm up and the possibility of a “treat” at the end they are usually golden lol!

That all said…these sessions are always so much fun and full of emotion. It is also a time where we allow mom and babe/children to just be! To be completely relaxed, quiet and interact as they normally would at home. Cuddles, counting ribs to get them to giggle, kisses, etc etc. These are the moments that us mom’s adore! Even more so when that is reciprocated from their little one/s.

Here are a few sneak peaks from just some of our sessions that day. Enjoy…And OMG…would you look at those arrangements? GASP…seriously guys..the studio smelled amazing and looked stunning! All our mama’s took some BTS and we loved that they were sharing their experience too.

Once again, the ever talented Aspen Florist blows our clients experience out of the water. Thank you Lisa for all you do and for making our moms (and children) feel so special and loved!

We hope you and yours enjoyed a wonderful weekend and you were spoiled rotten! Here’s to another amazing year ahead!

If you’d like to celebrate. your loved ones just because…really do we need ONE day a year to do so? I think not lol. Contact the studio today and let’s plan your experience today! We promise you will LOVE yourself that you did.

You deserve this!

Till next time…

When I was contacted to do a shoot for a sweet little one year old girl from this beautiful mama I was thrilled and excited. I knew right away what I wanted for her in studio. In comes Aspen Florist with the most gorgeous David Austin roses. Seriously tho, if you have yet to experience them in real life go see her. She manages to find the most brilliant, heavenly and stunning roses I know.
