Ottawa Maternity, Newborn and Family photographer

Hello, I'm Lisa!

I am a baby-obsessed, sweet latte drinking mama to 2 littles, Autumn & Arrow! My journey in photography was somewhat spontaneous as I was determined to be skilled in newborn photography before having kids of my own. After my first maternity leave in 2016 it was time for me to pursue photography full time and share it with you all!

It is my passion to create connection and emotion in my photography. To capture those special moments so you can look back and feel it all again.

I take pride in my clean and earthy style that focuses specifically on capturing the beauty of your new little one and your love for them.

It would be my honour to work with you and document your life’s greatest accomplishment.

These moments pass by too quickly. Capture them.

"Lisa is a wonderful photographer. Her style is timeless and leaves you truly mesmerized by the photos you're looking at. Lisa has photographed for us numerous times through pregnancy, newborn, milestones, family session and soon to be cake smash. I recommend Lisa to all of my mom friends. She captures the love and beauty I see in my daughter, and my family and I couldn't ask for more. Worth it!"

Newborn Photography

Your baby will only be little for a short time. A newborn session is the perfect way to relive those moments of when they were at their smallest.

My style is a beautifully balanced blend of posed and lifestyle photography.

Lifestyle newborn photos are prop free and family centered. The focus is on natural poses on my styled bed and connection with family. My studio space is decorated in earthy muted neutral tones with boho florals. To match this vibe I provide neutral baby outfits, blankets and headbands. Not to mention the most incredible selection of dresses for mama to wear.

Posed newborn photos are perfect for capturing the beauty of your baby and all their little details. My style is earthy & warm with simple props, making your baby the focus. I love to use warm, neutral tones and soft colours to produce a natural, beautiful look. My studio includes a large variety of hand selected headbands, knits, wraps & wooden props.

Newborn photography is best taken 5 to 14 days after birth. This is when newborns are extra sleepy and they love to be curled up in sweet newborn poses.

Your second trimester is a great time to book to ensure availability. Your due date will be put in my calendar as a place-holder until your baby arrives. After your baby’s arrival, we will ensure your session takes place within 14 days of birth. I do sometimes have last minute openings, so feel free to inquire at any time, even if your baby has already arrived. All sessions are scheduled on week days only.
