It's crazy how quickly the first year of your baby's life flies by! Doesn't it feel like it was just yesterday you were bringing your baby home from the hospital? All of a sudden you blink and your baby is turning one year old!!!
There is something so special about the first birthday. So many milestones during that first year; from your baby's first smile to their first steps. There is so much to celebrate which is why First Birthday Sessions are a great way to celebrate your baby turning one year old! We will start your session with some beautiful portraits of your baby, followed by a cake smash (optional), and end the session with a bubble bath in the baby-sized claw foot tub.

***The Session Fee DOES NOT include your images either digitally or printed; these are purchased separately at your Reveal and Ordering Appointment.
Because I offer an A-La-Carte pricing menu every client spends a different amount based on what best suits their style and portrait needs. Your purchase decision will be made during your Reveal and Ordering appointment which takes place approximately 2 weeks following your session. This way you are making your purchase decision AFTER you have seen your beautiful images. The amount you choose to invest is completely up to you and is different for each client; you only purchase what you love! Whether you are interested in an heirloom album, a keepsake portrait box, some wall portraits, or a large statement piece for your wall, I will help guide you with your selections and design.
Wall Portraits start at $150
Digital only collections start at $395
Collections (matted/mounted prints AND digital files) start at $990
*Matching digital files are included with product purchases.
**Payment plans are available.
While I always do my best to accommodate last-minute bookings, First Birthday sessions are typically booked months in advance to guarantee availability in my schedule as I only schedule 2-3 per month.
First Birthday sessions are photographed in my studio located in the beautiful town of Fergus, Ontario.
We will schedule an in-person or phone consultation where we will plan out all the details of your session based on YOUR goals and desires. We will pick out props, colours, themes, and accessories. You will be walked through the process each step of the way and you won't have to worry about purchasing or bringing anything for the session itself.
The creative fee is non-refundable and is due at the time of booking to secure your place in my calendar. It covers the planning consultation, preparing for your session, your studio session time, processing the images, and the Viewing and Ordering appointment. The creative fee does not include your images either digitally or printed.
I offer a variety of hand-crafted, high-quality products to safely display and preserve your heirloom images.
