Booking is now OPEN for this year's Exclusive Christmas Sessions. Christmas sessions are my most sought after offering of the whole year. There are only 2 dates available, with very limited time slots. These will book up quickly.
I'm excited to create timeless imagery for your family, and for you to walk away with gorgeous heirloom artwork. Starting this year, I will be offering an exclusive line of products only offered for my Christmas events. All of my other signature pieces (premium wall art, heirloom flushmount albums and timber collection boxes) are also available.

Tree Farm
& kids hot cocoa stand
What is more festive than a Christmas tree farm? At your session we will spend 30 minutes capturing beautiful family portraits for you to treasure and share. Unlike my tree farm "minis" in years past, we will have ample time to explore a number of locations, including the fields of trees, the big red barn, the quaint Christmas store, and a custom kid-sized hot cocoa stand nestled in the trees.
Christmas House
& baking cookies
If you would rather have a warm indoor Christmas session, then this option is for you. Located at a studio in the heart of Hamilton, this beautiful Christmas House offers multiple setups including a quaint Christmas living room, a full kitchen with a 'baking cookies' setup as well as a festive bedroom with large bed for cozy pajama pictures.
Your 30 minute session offers enough time for one quick outfit change into pjs if desired.

creative fee is 180+hst
Your non-refundable creative fee includes a 30 minute portrait session at either the beautiful tree farm (Lynden) or the cozy Christmas house (Hamilton). We will have enough time for your children to get comfortable with me, while capturing both posed and candid setups throughout the location. Each booking is for immediate family only (single household). I am unable to accommodate extended families for these bookings.
We will work together prior to the session to discuss all details, including, specific requests, children's needs, outfit selection, and your overall end goal for the imagery. Well behaved dogs are permitted at both locations.
Following the session we will have an in-person ordering appointment where you will select your final images and which products you would like to purchase. Each product purchased includes complimentary applicable digital images.
Products and digital files are not included in the creative fee.
