Carley & Jacob's Engagement
Save the Date! Carley & Jacob are getting hitched ;) I absolutely loved meeting these lovebirds and I simply CANNOT wait to document their big day on October 9th, 2022!
So this is Piper. LOL Isn’t she adorable? Honest, she really does love Jacob too. But clearly was like no buddy…she’s mine. Man we laughed so hard, but what a picture and memory it made for.
Who’s a good girl? ;). Look at that smile…
Our fall golden hour evening was amazing. Below is a sneak peak of just a little fun we created and documented that day.
If you took a moment to check out the gallery you’ll have noticed Piper got a few burrs stuck. No harm done while removing, but last picture is classic!
Much love beauties…
Huge Congratulations guys…roll on October :)
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!
Narm & Spencer-Couple Maternity Session: Toronto Oshawa Maternity Studio
Happy Wednesday! We ll here we are well into January 2022 and in the dead of winter lol. Here in Southern Ontario we have just had our biggest snowfall that I can remember for at least 8 years. So today’s ray of sunshine blog entry couldn’t have been more needed.
These two ridiculously gorgeous people had a little baby boy on the way. Mom and Dad have since welcomed him to their family and he definitely inherited their good genes ;)
Mom borrowed gowns from our Client closet and each piece she chose paired perfectly with the session.
We have so many pretty photographs to share with you. The easiest way to do so is via a gallery. Let’s get to it shall we…
If you can’t tell by now, Spencer adores his wife Narm. He was so supportive and sweet throughout the session. I told him he raised the bar for all future dad’s to be lol. Long may that last! :)
and when I asked her to look at him…this was the resulting image.
Right?…. ALL THE FEELS.
Love it!
Till next time…have a great remainder of the day friends.

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!
To book your baby’s milestone session, contact the studio and let’s start planning!
Let’s chat

A Breastfeeding Journey
When Camara asked if I would document a little of her journey as a new mom and what breastfeeding is for her I jumped at the opportunity. You may remember her from her Maternity Session here. For many new moms (myself included) it didn’t come easy or natural. It was anything but. Which is crazy, one of the most basic functions as a new mom can be so stressful and depressing.
Over the years I learned to heal. To be proud of myself that I tried and although it wasn’t what I thought it was going to be like, that my children were healthy and happy. It was ME that I had to work on.
That said, it is such a beautiful and momentous time for a mother. The bonding, connection, love, time spent in the fleeting moments of an infants life is one that is hard (at times) to put into words.
Our session was a collection of all things motherhood. I adore these images and memories we made together. They speak to my mama heart and fill my cup. I hope they do for you too!
So proud of you mama. Thank you for sharing a snippet of what Breastfeeding sweet Cayden looks like with us.
Still so in love with these images.
Lots of love…look forward to the next session together.
All the best,
P

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.
