Baby Ana and her family came from Ottawa to my studio so I could create a really beautiful organic newborn photography session for their brand new baby girl. Ana was 24 days old when I met her and she was a total doll! Although I recommend a newborn session taking place within the first 15 days of life, as you can see it is entirely possible to achieve beautiful newborn portraits with a baby who is a bit older and I’ve photographed many newborns when they are 20+ days old. Please don’t hesitate to contact me to see if I can fit your newborn into the calendar if they are already in this big, beautiful world!
Enjoy a look at my favourites from our session together.

As a Kingston Maternity Photographer, Jennifer knows that her job is to capture the joy and anticipation of parenthood that each parent has. Whether the session focuses just on mom, with a significant other or with previous children, Jennifer creates stunning portraits to remind each mom of their importance in what’s to come and share in the delight of the future.
As a boutique Kingston Newborn Photographer, Jennifer’s goal is to create sets that match each client’s colour theme while ensuring that baby is the focus. Trained by two of the top newborn photographers in North America, Caralee Case and Jennifer Nace, Jennifer prides herself on her ability to create a new and unique set for each newborn baby while making safety a top priority. While she loves using various colours to enhance each set, she is also drawn to organic natural sets and is equally sought after for both types of set design.
As a Kingston Baby Photographer, Jennifer uses her eye for detail and design to create both fun and whimsical portrait sets as well as simple, organic sets so that baby shines through each milestone. Jennifer recommends booking milestone portraits at 3-4 months old (lifting head well), 6-7 months old (sitting unassisted), 9-10 months old (full of expression but not walking yet), and 12-13 months old for first year birthday pictures that can include the optional cake smash.
As a Kingston Children Photographer, Jennifer loves getting to know each child by asking questions about their daily life so they open up and trust Jennifer, which in turn allows the session to be fun and relaxing. Taking portraits of each child as they grow and placing those portraits on the wall has been proven to enhance confidence in each child and as a child advocate, Jennifer wants to see each child she photographs succeed in a happy, healthy life. Jennifer has photographed over 400 children since opening her studio in 2011.
As a Kingston Family Photographer, Jennifer enjoys getting to know each family she meets, sharing parenting stories and getting to the heart of the family to create a relaxed and fun photoshoot. Jennifer recommends family sessions take place outside so that kids can run around and express themselves.
There are many beautiful products available including mounted heirloom quality prints, metal prints, traditional canvas, accordion mini brag books, collages, custom designed albums, digital packages, birth announcements and holiday cards. Jennifer’s high-quality products include handcrafted, unique frames so that you can completely style your Wall Art from start to finish with your own custom frame shape and colour to match your decor.
