Are you at a loss for what activities to do with your family during your family photo or video Session?
Documentary Family Sessions are a huge favorite of mine. Days in the Life, and my shorter family sessions. Usually will take place in your home, or at least partially in your home, because your home plays very a big role in your family! During a short, 2 or 4 hour session, it’s so important that you choose some activities to do with your family, to keep everyone interacting and busy. I encourage you to pick some activities that are comfortable for you and something that would be fun for your family. Whether it’s something you always do, or something new, pick activities that will keep you…

Whether you are having a hospital or home birth, you will need to have a go-bag! Especially since you could go into labour at any time, around 30 weeks is a great time to put it together. I have heard so many stories of women going into labour when they’re out and about, or when they have gone in for a prenatal visit, and suddenly were told to go to the hospital NOW due to some complication. Have a bag ready so that…
I LOVE family films. They are magic. Video brings LIFE to these memories. I love looking back at my own family films. They make me cry every time. My kids grow like weeds. Hearing their little voices. The things that seem like they will stay forever, but you wake up one day and they don’t mispronounce words the same way or do that cute little…
I always love to get a photo of the placenta at a birth (and try to convince everyone in the family to take a look at it, ha!). It is an incredibly fascinating organ! It supplies nutrients, fluids and oxygen to a baby for an entire pregnancy. The placenta connects the developing fetus (baby) to the wall of the mother’s uterus via the umbilical…
June flew, as all the months seem to do! This month was the last month of school, so my daughter is done Grade 1, and my middle one also turned 5 this month. They're getting so big! My mom (who lives next door) was away for the whole month, and my Mother in Law came for a visit with my 9 year old nephew from Alberta. I was on-call for a few births and appreciated the extra…
Nicola was referred to me by another doula/photographer who was booked up. We met at her house over tea and decided to work together! She was already in her 3rd trimester so we had a lot of work to do to prepare for her upcoming home birth.
We found out a few days before my prenatal visit that her baby girl was breech. We continued with the plan for a home birth, hoping baby would flip or that a breech home birth would still be an option...
