Newborn & Baby Photography in Vancouver

Timeless, heartfelt portraits for the first days of life.

From baby’s first sleepy days to their joyful first birthday, every stage of your baby’s first year deserves to be beautifully documented. I offer calm, fully styled studio sessions in Vancouver for newborns, sitters, and milestone moments like cake smashes designed to capture your baby’s personality, growth, and precious features.

Baby-Led Sessions: We follow your baby’s rhythm, taking breaks for feeding, soothing and cuddles whenever needed.

Comfortable Studio in Vancouver: Warm, quiet and fully equipped for studio newborn photography.

Elegant & Editorial Style: As a portrait photographer, I blend natural newborn moments with refined compositions.

Attention to Detail: Every image is carefully refined during editing. Newborn skin can be red, blotchy or a little dry and flaky. I gently retouch every image so your baby’s skin looks soft and natural while keeping their features true.

When to Book Your Newborn Session

The best time for newborn portraits is between 7–14 days after birth, when babies are sleepiest and naturally curl into cozy poses. I recommend booking during pregnancy to secure your spot and we’ll adjust the session date once your baby arrives.

Each session includes three thoughtfully styled setups using wraps, props, and newborn outfits provided in the studio.

SITTER SESSION PHOTOGRAPHY

Sitter sessions are ideal when your baby is around 6–9 months old and can confidently sit on their own. This stage is filled with big smiles, bright eyes, and so much personality. These shorter sessions focus on baby portraits, with playful themes and access to studio props. No outfits provided at this time.

Milestone Birthday / Cake Smash Session

Milestone sessions (also known as cake smash sessions) are a fun and playful way to celebrate your baby turning one! These studio sessions include adorable baby themed setups, and of course the joyful mess of a cake smash. While cake is not provided, I’ll guide you on what type to bring and how to prepare for the most photogenic results.

NEWBORN & BABY SESSIONS

From the first tiny days to big milestones, each stage of your baby’s first year is worth capturing and celebrating. Newborn sessions capture the sweet, sleepy moments in baby’s first two weeks. Sitter sessions showcase growing curiosity and personality once baby is sitting on their own. And cake smash sessions mark that exciting first birthday. Each session is thoughtfully styled with props provided, so you can simply enjoy the moment and create memories to last.
