Photoshoot Locations Around Kitchener-Waterloo Ontario

William Scott Park, New Hamburg One of the first questions you may ask your photographer is: "What locations do you suggest?" I personally LOVE when clients show me new spots but I like to offer a plethora of suggestions when asked. Even if I'm not personally working with you this list can still help you get an idea of some locations! This is by no means a list of all the locations in the KW area, I see potential photo shoots every time I'm out and about it seems! (Hello, side of back country road sessions?) Fellow photographers  please feel free to comment links to your locations/work in the comment section! Anyone can use this as a resource for shoot locations. How to find the locations? Clicking on location will open new window! ALSO: Here's a quick link to my KW PHOTOSHOOT LOCATION Pinterest Board with even more locations!!

Mini Session Vs. Full Session

What is the Difference? Which should I book? This post briefly outlines the differences between mini sessions and full sessions when you book with myself. I have yet to successfully arrange a day jam packed with 20 minute time slots, Real talk- I'm just not that organized.... but there always seems to be lots of interest in mini sessions. I'm not going to lie but I used to dread the words "mini session", immediately I thought *you mean  cheap session*. Let's face it, photography sessions can be expensive (but being a photographer is expensive too!). If you are wondering if I will be "doing Valentine's day minis" or Easter minis or Halloween, the answer is yes,yes and yes. We can pretty much create any theme you want, you just need to book a time. You can book a mini session at any time, the same as a full session. A "mini" can either be booked for children only or for immediate family. Sessions with grandparents/aunts...

Family Sessions- What to Expect

Welcome! This is going to be my first blog so please, excuse how awful it is. I thought I would start by giving you an idea of what you can expect during a typical family session with me! On location family sessions are meant to be casual while still capturing those posed shots. I like to take candid shots of family enjoying their time together and I have a bad habit of taking too many pictures! I've been known to say "just one more" a time or two... A full family session will typically last at least an hour depending on weather and willingness of the subjects. I also have over 5 years experience in the early childhood education field and that definitely helps when it comes to the littles! Full Sessions will include more than one "setting", we'll walk around a park or area as opposed to staying in one spot during a mini session.  Speaking of weather, don't let overcast/drizzly days scare you! They can produce beautiful images. When sched...
