Smash cake and birthday photo sessions at home are a delightful way to celebrate your little one’s special day! As an experienced photographer, I love capturing the joy and excitement as they dive into their cake, creating messy and memorable moments. Each session is tailored to reflect your child’s personality and the vibrant energy of the celebration, resulting in timeless images that you'll cherish for years to come. Let’s make this milestone unforgettable!
Your Safety is my Top Priority! Here what I do to protecte you:
I am fully vaccinated.
Only one Photo Session per day. All props/decorations are washed/sanitized/desinfected daily.
I wear a face mask, apron, and sanitize my hands regularly while photographing.
Safety is a collective effort, so please let me know ASAP if anyone in your household develops COVID-19 symptoms. I am open to reschedule if necessary. It's better be safe than sorry!

If you'd like Smash Cake photos on your baby's actual birthday, book a photo session one month in advance because I'll need up to three weeks to hand-retouch each photos.
Please, please, please introduce your baby to cake prior to photo session as some babies don't like the feel of the cake and refuse to touch it. Don't worry though, I still can do cake-less photo session.
If you'd like a specific costume for your baby as well as specific decorations, please order them well in advance as shipping might take time.
I'll provide backdrops, regular (non-Helium) balloons, decorations, banners, fans, fringes. Feel free to bring Helium balloons or whatever you think will fit into the photo session.
6-inch, no chocolate, no hard icing, please.
There are Three Easy Steps:
1. Within a week after your photo session you'll receive a link. You open the link on either your smartphone or computer to select the photos you'd like me to hand-retouch. The number of photos depends on your package.
2. Once you've submitted your selection, I'll start hand-retouching each of your photos to achieve best possible quality. This takes up to two weeks.
3. You'll receive a link to your Web Gallery to share with relatives and friends. I'll also mail a USB Flash Drive to you at that time which will arrive to your mailbox within 1-2 business days.
(Optional) If your package incudes Photo Album and/or Acrylic Print, I'll get them printed in Toronto's top Photo Lab taking care of all creative and technical aspects. I'll then deliver your prints right to your place.
You normally pay in full when your Photo Session is finished.
I am an On-Location Photographer, so I'll bring my Portable Professional Studio right to your place so that you can relax while I photograph your Little One.
I accept major Credit/Debit cards through TD machine, email transfers, cheques and cash.
Normally I start at 10 am when newborns/babies are the cutest and the most collaborative.
Hand-retouching takes up to two weeks to complete once you have selected your photos.
You will receive your photos on a USB Flash Drive. You can also download them.
Please watch the video to see how easy it is:
Please watch my short video for an explanation.
Take your USB Flash Drive to a store that provides photo printing services, such as Costco, Walmart, Super Store, Staples, etc. and print there as much as you like for cheap.
You definitely can! Your images are Hi-Res, so take your USB Flash Drive to a printing shop and print as large as you'd like. Still you might consider ordering the prints/albums from me as I work closely with printing vendors to make sure that the quality of your print is the best possible. I handle all technical details, make sure the colors are true, etc. Then I deliver the prints right to your place. Please contact me for prices and details on Canvas/Acrylic/Metal Prints or Photo Albums.
I'll be happy to provide you with a Gift Certificate valid for 6 months.
As far as I know Strobes/Flashes haven't been proven unsafe for Newborns' eyes. Still I'll happily replace the strobes with professional continuous light at your request. I also use natural light where available.
