One of my joy as a lifestyle family photographer is to travel to new cities in GTA. I had a newborn session at a peaceful town in Uxbridge, Ontario to photograph the arrival of baby boy at their home. 

As I experienced C-section myself, I thought I make a list

of must-have items for new moms booked for a c-section to bring to the hospital.

I photographed baby Matthew when he was almost 3 months old at their home in Whitby during winter time.

I photographed the youngest newborn ever in the studio. Baby Ella was only a week when in studio and why I am very excited about this session? Usually, when you hear newborn studio session, it means lots of props, wraps, baskets, headbands… and many poses for both newborn and the new parents. However, this session was none of those scenarios that you might think of: no poses, no props. I just wanted parents to be comfortable and cuddly with their new baby so I can capture their first bonding experience.

We planned for 2 nights trip to Niagara with our preschooler and I can tell you it was one of my memorable trips. All three of us enjoyed it a lot.

I thought it would be nice if It share our itinerary with parents of small children.

I have decided to share the nursery designing tips and ideas. These are all ideas I saw and photographed during newborn/ family sessions. I hope new parents find the photos and ideas helpful.
