Right here on the North Shore

A short drive from home, when that matters most.

My studio is in Lynn Valley, so for most North Vancouver families it’s just a few minutes from home. That makes a real difference with a brand-new baby, and with a bump in the last weeks of pregnancy. As a North Shore mom of two, I know how much easier everything feels when you don’t have to cross a bridge with a newborn.

Families come from all over the North Shore, from Lonsdale and Lower Lonsdale to Edgemont, Seymour and Deep Cove. Every session is fully guided and planned around you, so all you need to do is relax and enjoy the experience.

Expecting? Book your maternity and newborn sessions together during your pregnancy, and your maternity session fee is complimentary. I only take a limited number of newborns each month, so reaching out early is the best way to get the dates you’d like.

Over 70 maternity gowns, plus all newborn wraps, outfits and accessories, so you don’t need to bring anything for your baby.
