The Maternity
As a mother of two small children , I understand just how quickly they grow up. One day they are babbling and the next they are saying "seriously, mom!". I also know how hard it is to be in the photos when you are the one taking them. Having photographic memories that you can look back on is such a treasure.
When choosing a photographer for your portrait session, it's important to select someone who will make you feel comfortable and at ease during your session. As your photographer, my number 1 goal is to ensure you enjoy your experience from start to finish. I will guide you every step of the way. I know it can feel intimidating do have your photo taken, so I make sure my sessions are as fun and light-hearted as possible. I will guide you and prompt you so that we can capture the authentic images that tell your family's unique story.
These are the days I never want to forget

How it works
Have more questions?
Send me an email and ask away! I'm here to help.
If there is anything else you'd to know or need help understanding, please get in touch. No question is too silly.
You might be wondering...
A. I suggest booking the session for when you are 28-32 weeks pregnant. Of course, we can still have a session if you are later than that but from experience, mobility might be a challenge the bigger the bump gets!
A. Maternity sessions can be held in the comfort of your own home or at an agreed upon outdoor location if the session is taking place between May and October. We can also have the session at a beautiful studio for an additional studio rental fee.
A. The session retainer secures your date and time in my calendar. I will turn all other clients away for that date. Once your session is complete and you have viewed your images, the retainer amount will be deducted from the total cost of the collection that you select.
A. I will send you a style guide to help you plan your outfits! The suggestions may change depending on the location of your session. You can choose to wear a flowy dress or keep it casual. It's totally your call. I will recommend you stay away from certain colours and patterns though.
A. It's easy peasy! once you have selected your image collection, I will send you a code to use in your cart at checkout. The credit will be applied to the total amount in your cart. So for example, if you receive the $400 artwork credit and order $600 worth of products, your total will be $200.
A. Me too! But here is the thing, I won't leave you hanging. Even though my sessions capture natural interactions, they are totally curated and I help guide you every step of the way. I help to pose you naturally and then offer prompts to get those authentic images.
Let's book your session!
Make it official and get on my calendar!
If you like what you see here and are ready to book, send me an email. The sooner you book your session, the more availability I am likely to have. I advise to book your maternity session for when you are between 28-32 weeks.
I can't wait to capture your beautiful bump!

Claire did an absolutely amazing job with our newborn photos. It was such a calming experience having the photos done at our house. Claire put us all at ease, and the final output is perfect!

We had a great experience with Claire and were very happy with our newborn photos. Claire took her time during our session to ensure we got many different photos in the best locations in our house. She was also a pleasure to work with.

We booked Claire for a maternity shoot and newborn shoot, and she was incredible to work with. She was easy to communicate with, helped us at every step and was quick to turnaround our photos. Everything she took turned out amazing and we’re so pleased with the results
We are so happy we found Claire and can’t wait to do more family sessions with her in the future!

Our most precious photos of our little one were taken by Claire. What makes her a special photographer in my mind is her patient and calm approach, the connection she is able to make with kids (they love her!) and her knack for capturing those perfect moments or expressions (the photos of our baby's sleep smile or him sticking his tongue out at us immediately come to mind). Thanks again Claire!

Claire captured some really special moments for our family during a maternity family session in a beautiful park as well as a newborn session at our home. She is incredible to work with, really bringing out the personalities in our children. Plus, she has a great personality which made our photo sessions really fun! For all these reasons I highly recommend Claire!

Claire is the best! We love the photos of our daughter! I was a bit apprehensive about a newborn session since it's such a stressful time, but she made everything relaxed and easy. Highly recommended!
