Christmas Minis: The most wonderful time of the year!

My clients LOVE mini sessions and so do I. They are perfect for excited kiddies and parents on the go. Christmas is one of the most popular mini sessions and, I have to admit, they are my favorite minis of the year! Honestly, I think they might be my favorite because of all the adorable outfits the kids show up in. Oh how I wish that they made things that great in my size! OR that is was acceptable to wear those adorable sparkly dresses at my age!
But on a serious note, Christmas season just makes me happy in general. I love the twinkle lights, and the picking out gifts for my family and loved ones. And these sessions just help to get that Christmas feeling going, regardless if there is snow or not.

Like previous years, I will have two sets and will also be offering discounts for those who bring in non-perishable food items for Project share.
These 20 minutes sessions run by the half hour and are starting on the 15th of November and running till December 19th. I run these the longest since they are the most popular and the season is very busy. They include 3 digital images, for $35 or with non-perishable food items they are $30. You can also add additional images for $5.

ALSO! Just like during my Halloween sessions, Swiss Chalet fourth Ave in St. Catharines is kindly giving me free kids meals for all the families who come into the studio for these mini sessions! How nice of them! Just in time for their festive special. Christmas photos, followed by dinner complete with stuffing, cranberries and of course, those yummy Lindor Chocolates! Can you think of a better way to get yourself into the Christmas spirit? I can't!

The set ups will have snow and ever greens. One I will be making myself, and the other is a studio backdrop a photo of which has been included below. As well as some of the cuties that visited me last year!

Frequently Asked Questions about Boudoir.

Boudoir.  It's exciting It's inciting And it's confusing and intimating all at the same time!  If you are thinking about a boudoir I'm sure you have some pretty big questions on the top of your head. That's fine. I mean it's not everyday you are standing half naked in front of a perfect stranger.  So you have questions... I've got answers. Q: Boudoir. Pornography. What’s the difference? A: Well for starters Boudoir is suggestive, while porn is... well you know. And you don’t have to be complete nude or revel anything at all when it comes to boudoir photographs. One of the most important things about being sexy is being confident. If you feel that way wearing jeans, by all means, wear jeans! Or a button down men’s dress shirt. Sure why not? Classy, suggestive, and flirty. Q: Can you Photoshop my images? A: If you would like to have say, stretch marks, a scar, that unwanted, embarrassing tattoo from when you were 16...

Bohemian Beach Goddess

A while back, when the weather was just starting to get nice again I did a shoot with the beautiful Malissa Otting. Malissa came to me with this great idea of bohemian beach style photo session. Of course I was on board. No normally I do shoots with MUA Griffin Shields, however the date and time of this shoot Griffin was unavailable so I worked with up and coming mua Sarah Stechyshyn. When I was first starting out Sarah was one of my very first models. And that is one thing I love about my job, the wonderful people you and the long term friendships you create along the way. We meet Malissa at her apartment for hair, make up and wardrobe. The beach we shot at was just a ways down the street from there. The beach itself was pretty cool. It was quiet with a small run off that trailed into the water. The remains of what were once board walks and boating docks protruded from the sand and water, parts of the wood had small plants growing from them. The sand was lined with trees and shrubs....

Choosing Your Location, Fall Addition

It's that time of year again where the weather changes and vibrant hues surround us. So looking for a place to take photos may be different than a place in the summer or winter that you enjoyed. Choosing a location that best suits you and your comfort level is important. It is good to pick somewhere that will make your session memorable and pleasing for you. Find a place that fits well with your personality and gets you to enjoy your experience. Some of my favorite places in the Fall time are Morningstar Mill, Malcolmson Eco Park both in St Catharines. As well as Firemans Park in Niagara Falls, McFarland House in Niagara on the Lake, and Balls Falls in Vineland.  Morningstar Mills is a heritage site located at Decew Falls. This site features a beautiful working mill rebuilt in 1872 and is surrounded with trees and water. It is a good naturalistic place to go, especially in the fall time when there are numerous colors all around you and a beautifully built mill overlooking some wate...
