Motherhood Photography is permanently closed due to my cancer diagnosis. Thank you for so the support over the past 14 years. I appreciate all of you.

I’ve noticed quite a few past clients logging into their online galleries since my diagnosis, and it reminded me of something important.

If you haven’t already, please download and back up your photos as soon as possible.

Your online gallery was never meant to be a permanent storage solution. As I wind down my business, all galleries will eventually expire and will no longer be accessible. I would hate for anyone to lose their memories simply because they weren’t downloaded in time.

Please take a few minutes to:
• Download your full gallery to your computer.
• Back up your images to an external hard drive or a cloud service.
• Keep more than one copy if these photos are important to you.

These are your memories, and I want to make sure you have them safely stored for years to come. ❤️

Well… that happened! 🤍

I’m happy to share that the Studio Sale has been cancelled because one photographer has purchased everything from my studio.

Thank you so much to everyone who shared my post, reached out, planned to stop by, or expressed interest. I was genuinely overwhelmed by all of your kindness and support.

This truly is the easiest and best-case outcome for me, and I’m incredibly grateful.

Thank you for supporting my little business over the past 13 years. It has meant more to me than you’ll ever know. ❤️

Everything in my photography studio is for sale! 🤍

After 13 incredible years of photographing hundreds of families, it’s time for my studio collection to find new homes.

As some of you know, I’ve recently been diagnosed with an inoperable brain cancer. While this isn’t the way I imagined closing this chapter, I’m hoping these beautiful pieces can continue creating memories in someone else’s hands.

I’ll be selling:
✨ Newborn wraps, layers & flokatis
✨ Maternity gowns
✨ Bonnets, outfits & headbands
✨ Baskets & vintage props
✨ Backdrops & fabrics
✨ Studio furniture
✨ Florals, greenery & styling pieces
✨ And so much more!

📍 Drop in Saturday, June 27
🕙 10:00 AM – 2:00 PM

If you can’t make it during those hours, just send me a message and we’ll arrange another time.

Whether you’re a photographer, crafter, decorator, or simply love beautiful vintage and textured pieces, there’s something for everyone.

Thank you so much for supporting my little business over the past 13 years. It has truly been an honour to help preserve so many memories for so many wonderful families. ❤️

As someone who lives with type 1 diabetes, it was especially meaningful for me to photograph yesterday's Breakthrough T1D Walk.

Seeing our community come together in support of everyone affected by T1D was incredibly encouraging. From the walkers and volunteers to the sponsors and organizers, thank you for making the day such a success.

The photo gallery is now available! Feel free to browse, download, and share any images of yourself, your family, or your team.

Thank you for supporting the search for better treatments and, ultimately, a cure. 💙

Trying to figure out what to get Grandma for Mother’s Day? 🤍

The most meaningful gifts aren’t things… they’re moments like this.

Photos with the people who matter most—moms, grandmas, and their babies—are the ones that only become more valuable with time.

If this is something you’d love, send me a message 🤍

How long does it take to get your photos?

I guarantee that you’ll receive your proofs within one week of your session, and your final edited images within two weeks of choosing your favourites.

In reality, it’s often much faster—most galleries are ready within 3–4 days, and final images are typically completed within about a week of receiving your selections.

Not every baby comes in sleepy… and that’s okay 🤍

With a little patience and a lot of care, we can still create something beautiful—always with baby’s comfort and safety as the priority.

When should you book your newborn session?

The answer surprises a lot of people…
👉 Before baby is even here.

I reserve newborn sessions based on your due date, then once baby arrives, we choose the perfect day and time within that sweet 2–3 week window when babies are sleepiest and those curled-up poses are still possible.

If you wait until after baby arrives, my schedule is often already full—especially during busy seasons.

If you’re expecting and thinking about newborn photos, this is your sign 🤍
Reach out with your due date and I’ll walk you through everything.
