Outdoor Spring Sessions in Ottawa are perfect for:
- Family photos
- Sibling photos
- Maternity photos
- Graduation photos
- Birthday photos
Where will sessions take place?
All sessions will take place in central Ottawa near the Canada Agriculture and Food Museum. The exact session location will be provided to you in the days leading up to your session.
How do I book a session?
Booking begins on April 12th. Sessions can be booked in the online boutique. Sign up to The List and the booking links will be sent straight to your inbox.
If our plans change, can we change our session time?
Before booking your session, please ensure that your partner and family members are all available for the date and time you have selected, as well as the back-up date. Unlike other service appointments (e.g., spa, hair salon, massage), several hours of planning is involved prior to your session taking place. Therefore, it is not possible to change your session date and time once your session has been booked.
Do I have to pay for my session fee in full?
A session deposit is required to secure your session. The balance for your session is paid the week your session is scheduled to take place.
Can our grandparents, cousins, aunts, and uncles come to the session?
Outdoor Spring Sessions are for immediate family members (parents and their children).
What happens if it’s raining on the day of our session?
Each date of sessions has a corresponding back up date. Clients must be available for both dates.
What is your session illness and cancelation policy?
You can see our updated policies here.
What are the session options?
There are two session options.
A Memories Session is 15 minutes in length ($349+HST). These sessions are for 3 people or less. These sessions include 5 edited and retouched digital images of your choice in colour and 3 complimentary gift prints.
A More Memories Session is 20 minutes in length ($399+HST). These sessions are for families of 4 or more people. These sessions include 8 edited and retouched digital images of your choice in colour and 3 complimentary gift prints.
