Spring 2025 Sessions | Ottawa family Photographer. I’m counting down the days until 2025 Spring Sessions!

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, as our meeting place varies depending on construction and other events.

How do I book a session?

Booking begins on April 8th. 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 on both dates. Unlike other service appointments (e.g., spa, hair salon, massage), I spend several hours planning your session before it takes place. Because of this, you cannot change your session date and time after booking.

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 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 are the session options?

There are two session options.

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. 

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.
