Lifestyle Family Photography in Peterborough and the Kawarthas

 

Lifestyle Family Mini Sessions

In Peterborough and the kawarthas
Parent and child share tender moment while relaxing together on grass during outdoor family time.

When I photograph families my focus is on capturing the real, unique moments that make your family special.  I love to photograph children just the way they are, so I never expect kids to smile when they're not feeling up to it. I encourage a lot of movement, cuddles and play during our time together. I want you to focus on each other, not the camera!

Frequently asked questions

How long will it take to receive my photos?

Images will be delivered  to you within 2 weeks of your Mini Session date. Upon receipt of your gallery, you will have 30 days to review, download and purchase any any additional images.

What if I need to cancel?

Cancellation is permitted up to 48 hrs. in advance of your session.  While your retainer fee is not refundable (even when sufficient notice has been given) you are welcome to apply your retainer fee to any other session within the next 12 months.   Sessions cancelled less than 48 hrs. in advance of the session date will result in the forfeiture of the retainer fee, and any other fees paid.

What if the weather is bad?

While I do my best to shoot during most types of weather, including light rain and snow, sessions do need to be rescheduled due to the weather from time to time.  If bad weather is in the forecast (this could be heavy rain,  heavy wind or heavy snow) I will reach out at least 24 hours in advance to discuss our options.

Do you provide styling services?

No! These photos are all about being your authentic selves. Please wear whatever you love, and whatever you are comfortable in!   Quick tip:  If you are hoping for photos that feel light, wear lighter colors. If you prefer dark, moody photos, definitely opt for darker shades.
