What’s a Limited Edition Session?

Limited Edition Sessions differ from regular sessions in both length and price because of the unique planning and resources they require. These sessions may involve extensive location scouting, multiple backup dates, or additional fees for private property access or custom setups. Due to the added preparation and the limited availability of these locations, only a small number of these sessions can be offered.

What types of photos can the sessions be used for?

  • Family Photos
  • Maternity Photos
  • Grad Photos
  • Headshot Photos

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 day your session is scheduled to take place. 

Can our grandparents, cousins, aunts, and uncles come to the session?

Spring Greenhouse Sessions are for immediate family members (parents and their children).

Can we bring our dog?

Yes the Greenhouses are a pet-friendly location!

What happens if it’s raining on the day of our session?

Because the sessions take place in a greenhouse, sessions will go ahead, rain or shine!

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. 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. 

What are the session options?

Spring Greenhouse Sessions are Limited Edition Sessions that are 15 minutes in length ($399+HST). These sessions include 5 edited and retouched digital images of your choice in colour and 3 complimentary gift prints.
