How to plan your Family Photoshoot: Oshawa Low Tox Motherhood Studio
Does the thought of planning a Family session give you anxiety or a headache? LOL It shouldn’t. But I get it. Mom to mom, I know the feeling of wanting beautiful photographs that you dream of but worry about xyz. even before you arrive.
Planning a Family session is simple:
- Contact the studio
-Set a date
-Show up on said date
It’s that easy. Leave the planning, the details and worry to me.
Regardless if you are a repeat client or not, the jitters in front of the camera is normal. Heck, even I do ;)
One of my favourite ways to avoid this is by using easy prompts. Especially when working with babies and children, since they feed off your body language and anxiousness. Things like, tickling, or kisses on the cheek, funny sounds (you all know what I’m talking about) or as simple as playing peek-a-boo.
New environments can be also be intimidating for little ones so keeping things light and fun always help
Two take aways from this post:
Book your Family session
Leave the rest to me. I promise the memories we make will be ones you will be proud to display around the house
Our 2024 calendar is now open. Contact the studio early to avoid black out dates due to our Wedding Calendar.
I can’t wait to document your beautiful family with you!

Family Happiness: Oshawa Newcastle Family Photography
After reading the caption, what does that mean to you? Have you thought about what that looks like? Sure a gorgeous photograph of your family and a wonderful experience is the goal of our session. However, once our session is done and you’ve printed your images to display in your home… then what?
Then you soak it in. Just look at what you have made. A BEAUTIFUL family that means everything to you. Your very own Family Heirloom to pass down for generations to come. They say true happiness comes from within but we could all use a little help now and then right? Especially if you are a busy mama like my beautiful client Taryn. Hands full, hips carrying littles around and constantly on the go and hearts overflowing.
I am here for you mama. If it’s just to listen, offer a shoulder, a cup of tea or coffee with and sometimes you just need to hear you are doing a great job from someone other than your family. I love journeying with my families. The connections we make, document and cherish are equally fulfilling to me as well. I am truly Blessed and Grateful for each and everyone of you.
You may remember Taryn from her maternity session. Not only is it an honour to document life’s moments that matter to you it also gives you the little nudge needed to finally get that wall gallery up ;)
Plan a session with us. I promise you and your family will love the experience and a year from now you will thank yourself that you invested in your family. Heirloom memories to pass down through the generations…now that’s happiness any family would love to have as keepsakes.
We have limited dates left for the rest of the year. If this year isn’t in your cards, reach out to us for next year. Our 2024 calendar fills quickly so be sure to book early. We suggest 2-3 months out to make sure we have the date/s you need.

Leo is 2: Oshawa Baby & Family Photography
I have known this handsome little guy since he was 3 months old. How lucky am I to watch and document his growth with his beautiful parents? In all my 17.5 years of business, Leo is the most polite, well mannered little boy I have ever met. Which speaks volumes for his parents.
Leo came in with his mom and dad to celebrate turning 2! We danced, giggled, cuddled and even tested out some of the studio’s props for good measure.
Outgrowing Baby milestones and graduating to toddler milestones are just as important and so much fun.
As always, thank you for coming in to celebrate your sweet beautiful boy with me D & L. Can’t wait for the next one with you.
Till next time. Much love,
Petra

Ways I fight germs year round: Low Tox Motherhood Family Photographer
Fighting germs and sickness is inevitable these days. I hear from a lot of my clients that it’s a cycle they would like to end. I can’t blame you. It’s everywhere! One of the best ways I fight all of the germs and keep my home and quality of air healthy is with Thieves and Thieves Household Cleaner. It kills 99.96% of all germs and 100% of mold. Pretty impressive and 100% all natural and plant based. The powerful oils that make up this blend are Clove, Lemon, Cinnamon Bark, Eucalyptus Radiata and Rosemary. Here is some more info on the history of Thieves that dates back to the 15th Century!
Thieves is a NHP ( National Health Product) which means that it is registered by Health Canada as a safe, effective and high quality remedy. Our family uses it for the onset of sickness, to ward off germs, to clean our homes with and to keep the air in our homes clean.
Thieves is Young Living’s best seller and original to this beautiful company. Many people admit that they have heard about the powers of this oil/product before they learn about Young Living. It’s such an impressive and effective oil that Young Living has dedicated an entire line to cleaning products with Thieves.
Ways I like to fight germs in my home and in the studio is super easy. I use Thieves in my diffuser throughout the house and I use Thieves Household Cleaner for everything. It’s not just for floors and surfaces. It’s perfect for kitchen, laundry (thieves laundry soap), bathrooms, windows, mirrors, in the car and so much more! It’s such a powerful and affective product that Young Living has a whole line of cleaning products. If you are looking for more than just the cleaner, consider the The Thieves Home Starter Bundle is AMAZING. It’s so concentrated that everything can be split multiple times so that you get more for your dollar.
Life is precious and our loved ones mean everything to us right? I use Thieves to keep our immune systems healthy and for all that it does to keep the home healthy. Low Tox and all natural products are not all the same. It’s important to do your research. If you wanted to chat more, of course I am here to help you too.
If you are on the fence and thinking this is just another product, and what’s the hype all about? I highly encourage you to give it a try. Trust one who has tried just about everything. If you are local to me and interested, reach out. I will happily share this amazing product with you and your family.
Did you know that one bottle of Thieves Household Cleaner yields (29) 500ml spray bottles? It’s so cost effective and multifunctional. If you are thinking of making the switch to a more natural and healthy way of cleaning, Thieves is a natural powerhouse.
Plus it smells amazing! Seriously, check it out. One purchase that you will thank yourself for ;)

A Beautiful Fall Family Session: Whitby, GTA Family Photography
Every year I look forward to Fall Family photos with my clients. Scheduling your fall family session is best done as early as possible. My studio and wedding schedule fill up fast so the limited dates remaining are always a juggling act. BUT I will do everything I can (weather pending) to make memories for you with colours and tones like this.
When planning your session, take nap time and your schedule in mind. If you have little ones, we want them happy and fresh. If you have older kids, you have more flexibility to go on little adventures and create memories with them at the same time.
Golden hour before the sun sets is most popular with my clients. You can clearly see why. Warm tones, and sun flares never fail for the emotive and captivating portraits that draw you right in.
If you are thinking of booking a family session, consider booking sooner than later. Contact the studio and we can start planning yours today!
What does your family story look like?

Autumn Fall Fun: Whitby Greater Toronto Area Family Photographer
Over the last 6 plus years I have loved documenting this beautiful young family. I get excited when Lindsay reaches out with a disclaimer about what craziness or mood the kids are up too. It’s a challenge, and I mean that in the best way. Not that it puts me out by any means. It keeps me young and the mood light. These kids keep me on my toes and I freaking love it. Every time I photograph Lindsay & Scott it’s always so much fun. Side splitting laughs, the kids are balls of energy and mom and dad are the coolest to work with.
Pssst…hey kids!
