Classic 6 month old: Toronto Baby Portrait Photographer

An adorable classic 6 month old baby girl came into the studio for her milestone session recently.  I could have just eaten her up!  Not to mention how much she has changed since her newborn session.  Check out how much Miss. Ava has grown and don't you just love her little bangles? I have one almost identical to her tiny ones. A family heirloom from my Great-Grandmother. So seeing her wear the traditional East and West Indian jewellery made me smile big time. For Ava's session I aimed  to focus on creating some timeless and classic images. As with all photography, the focal point should be on your baby, your style and a chance for me to tell your story with others.  I was thrilled when mom brought the PERFECT little dress and diaper cover for her session.  It's SO important to envision your images. Remember that these images are going to be displayed in your home for years to come.  Trends and fad's in fashion come and go however, there are some styles that never go out of fashion. I just LOVE the neutral palette with her beautiful skin tone. Thanks Aditi and see you at 1 year!

It was with utmost joy that I was able to photograph this beautiful tiny newborn blessing recently.  I am very proud to introduce my newest niece to the world!  Evelyn Alexandra joined a new wonderful family that couldn't love her more if they tried.  She has perfect doting parents and big brother and sister are ever so excited she is here.  You may recall mom's maternity session.  I love all these exciting times we documented for mom and dad.  the Danielle, Andrei...what a wonderful gift.  Enjoy these fleeting moments as she is only little for a short while.  All the details we captured that day are lifelong memories that I know you already cherish!

Ajax Baby Bump: Maternity Session

Maternity sessions are beautiful!  Every mom deserves some wonderful memories of this time in her life. So how should YOU prepare for your session?   Well, maternity sessions in general I like to recommend scheduling them between 32 and 36 weeks.  Often times, we have no control when our little one's will arrive, so it's usually best not to wait till the end when mom is tired and uncomfortable.

Your Preparation:

Maternity sessions are all about capturing your beauty during your pregnancy, and the miracle of the baby growing inside you. I want you to be relaxed and comfortable at all times.  Make sure that this day is all about YOU!  For this session we took advantage of Fall's natural beauty!  Perfect temperature and gorgeous colors!

Your Clothing:

I like to suggest to my clients that when we do family maternity sessions or simply family sessions alone, try to think of dressing everyone as one outfit.  Meaning, you compliment eachother. To be all tied together rather than everyone sporting a different style.  Being relaxed in your own skin so to speak, makes for relaxed and natural images.

Your Session:

Don't forget to breathe and enjoy the moment. The little details that I will help capture for you is MY job.  Posed or lifestyle, you are the center of attention. Be yourself, don't be afraid to laugh or cry at the drop of a hat. This precious time in your life goes by quickly. So forget the swollen ankles, tiredness and hormones. You are awesome! Look at you glow!

 

This session is especially close to home for me. Allow me to introduce to you my sister and her family!  I am so excited to share these images with you all. We had a great time together. The kids were super excited and can't wait till baby arrives! Neither can I!
