Welcoming first baby boy

These at home newborn photos took place in a West Toronto home. Every newborn session I photograph is unique because no two homes are the same. This makes your experience that much more personal. These precious moments are captured in your space, showing off your family's unique personality. How amazing is that?! Even Baby B's dog sibling joined the fun!

Baby L & big sister C

This session was with a beautiful family of 4. Big sister was 5 and baby brother was 3 months old at the time of the session. Sometimes life gets in the way of capturing the very early days and that's okay! Every stage of your baby's life is precious and I love that I can capture these precious moments for families.

Experience

A unique Newborn Photography session in the comfort of your home

Your in-home newborn session will beautifully encapsulate the genuine moments and emotions shared within your family. No need for elaborate props or forced poses, the focus will remain on the authentic connections and tender interactions between you and your newborn. Newborn sessions typically last 1.5-2 hours.

Natural Photo editing to stand the test of time

I keep my edits natural and bright. I want you to be the star of the show!

A beautifully curated proofing gallery

Your proofing gallery will include a beautiful story of your family. I try not to show too many of the same "pose". I want you to have a great variety of images to choose from without being overwhelmed with choice. You choose what you love.

What to expect For your in-home Newborn session

“We never know the love of a parent until we become parents ourselves.”

Clients are drawn to my in-home newborn photography for its laid-back vibe and the natural, bright, clean edits. Think of our session as a cozy catch-up with an old friend, sprinkled with the magic of capturing gorgeous photos! At home newborn sessions are perfect for those wanting a relaxed experience with natural looking images.

Send me a message through my contact form and let's start the conversation about your perfect session. I want to hear it all. When you are due, who will be photographed. Ask me anything. I am happy to answer any questions you may have. Based on your due date we can schedule a tentative session date. Your paid session retainer will ensure a date on my calendar. Once your baby is born, we will touch base to determine if our date still works.

**It's best to book your newborn session a few months before your baby is due to ensure I have the availability for you.

You might be wondering...

When should I schedule a
newborn session?

What should we wear for
our session?

How long will my newborn
session take?

I recommend booking your session with me a few months before your baby is due. I only take a limited number of newborn sessions a month to ensure that my clients get their preferred dates. Generally newborn sessions are scheduled within the first 2 weeks after your baby has arrived. At the time of your booking, we will pencil in a date and once your baby has arrived we will finalize the date.

My newborn sessions take between 90 minutes and 2 hours. This gives us lots of time for cuddles, diaper changes, feeding and whatever else the baby might need. When siblings are involved, they tend to go a little longer than 90 minutes.

Once you have booked a date with me, I will send you my session prep guide which includes lots of information on what to wear. Neutrals and softer colours are always a great option. However if your home has a richer colour scheme then coordinating with that will also be great! I have a selection of beautiful outfits that your newborn can borrow for our session.

Are siblings and pets welcome?

YES!! My sessions involve the whole family. If your pets want to cooperate then the more the merrier! If grandparents are visiting, they are welcome to join in some photos at the end of our session too!

Claire is the best! She did our maternity and newborn photos and we are thrilled with how they turned out. She made the whole experience so comfortable for our family, including our dog! She was patient and took her time to make sure she got all the shots we hoped for. Her experience working with newborn babies was clear. We could not be happier to have these beautiful seasons documented and will not hesitate to recommend Claire to anyone looking for family photography!
