READY TO BOOK?
Here's what you need to know!
Once you're ready to book your session, reach out and let’s start planning!
We’ll chat about the details, your vision for the shoot or event, and all the little things that will make your photos feel uniquely you. This is also a great chance for me to get to know you and make sure we’re creating something you’ll absolutely love. I always recommend booking early so you have plenty of time to prepare and get excited for your session!
To secure your date, a 50% non-refundable deposit is required (plus any studio rental fees if applicable). Standard sessions are one hour at our chosen location. When you arrive, we’ll quickly go over the plan, answer any last minute questions, and then jump right into capturing the fun!
If you have a vision board or inspiration photos, I’d love to see them! Feel free to send them over before your session so we can bring your ideas to life!
FAQ:
How do we book our session?
To get started, please complete the contact form or send us an email. We’ll be in touch promptly to discuss your session details. Once your session is confirmed, you’ll receive an invoice and contract via email to secure your date. A 50% non-refundable deposit is required at booking, while gift certificates and pre-paid sessions require full payment.
Where would our session take place?
I photograph throughout Toronto and the GTA. Sessions can be in your home, outdoors, or in a studio rental. During booking, we’ll discuss the best location for your vision, and I’m happy to recommend some great studio options.
What should we wear?
Picking the perfect outfits for you and your family can feel like a big task, but I’m here to help! After booking, you’ll receive my prep guide with tips and ideas for coordinating your wardrobe.
I love soft, neutral tones like cream, white, beige, brown, and denim for a timeless look, and I usually suggest keeping black to a minimum to keep things light and natural. I’m happy to offer guidance along the way to make it easy and fun! For extra styling help, you can also reach out to @styledbysydney_ for wardrobe curation.
What do we do if my children aren't cooperating?
It happens, and that’s completely okay! I always follow your child’s lead and take breaks whenever needed. Keep a few mess-free snacks handy, and don’t worry, we can pause for feeding or diaper changes anytime.
I’ve got plenty of tricks to keep little ones entertained, so they can relax and have fun. The secret? Just go with the flow! We’ll sing, dance, play, and make silly noises to capture those joyful, candid moments.
