White Winter Wonderland: Christmas Minis 2022: GTA Oshawa Christmas Mini Sessions
Christmas 2022 marked our 6th annual mini session event! And holy jingle balls was it gorgeous and fun!
It’s taken me a while to get caught up this year as typically start of the year is a little slow. I am totally okay with that as Fall/Winter is a whirlwind. It’s now Easter weekend lol and I am VERY grateful for how steady business has been but slightly guilty for blogging Christmas at Easter haaa. Oh well!
Soooo many gorgeous moments, memories and a fun was documented.
We always have the BEST time and so do our clients.
We have so much creating with Aspen Florist. It’s always amazing to watch her design and create and see things come to life. The best part, is seeing the kids and parents faces light up with excitement when they walk into the studio.
When you book your Christmas session with us you are in for a beautiful experience. You can plan on laughter, dancing, smiles and the magic and innocence of Christmas through your child’s eyes.
A HUGE thank you to all our beautiful families and little ones who joined us this past Christmas. We love that you spend your moments with us and create memories for your family to look back on year after year.
If you are new here, we hope you’ll join us for our Christmas 2023 Mini Sessions. Sign up to our newsletter for all the details and when we will be announcing our early bird release!
See you soon!

New Brand Partner: Nest Specialty Desserts!
We take great pride in our PKP and Aspen Family. Our littlest clients are often our most biggest critics. So when the time came for Danielle Petrik Sweetery to say goodbye to the small business world for Corporate, we knew that upholding our standards was important to us moving forward. Providing you with the same quality and care you are accustomed to in our Boutique Portrait Studio is a non negotiable.
Nest Specialty Desserts joined our team late last year and we are so excited and honoured to be working with Nadine. Not only are her cakes beautiful and delicious, but she uses all natural ingredients and has 2 sizes to choose from. Combine this with Lisa’s beautiful floral packages from Aspen Florist always WOW’s our clients.
Baby’s LOVE it. Mom’s adore it and Grandma’s can’t get enough.
First Birthday’s are Fun! Busy and oh so sweet. If you are looking to plan your little one’s cake smash session you can find our collections here.
We can’t wait to celebrate with you!
On behalf of Lisa and Nadine and myself…let’s party baby!

Ways I fight germs year round: Low Tox Motherhood Family Photographer
Fighting germs and sickness is inevitable these days. I hear from a lot of my clients that it’s a cycle they would like to end. I can’t blame you. It’s everywhere! One of the best ways I fight all of the germs and keep my home and quality of air healthy is with Thieves and Thieves Household Cleaner. It kills 99.96% of all germs and 100% of mold. Pretty impressive and 100% all natural and plant based. The powerful oils that make up this blend are Clove, Lemon, Cinnamon Bark, Eucalyptus Radiata and Rosemary. Here is some more info on the history of Thieves that dates back to the 15th Century!
Thieves is a NHP ( National Health Product) which means that it is registered by Health Canada as a safe, effective and high quality remedy. Our family uses it for the onset of sickness, to ward off germs, to clean our homes with and to keep the air in our homes clean.
Thieves is Young Living’s best seller and original to this beautiful company. Many people admit that they have heard about the powers of this oil/product before they learn about Young Living. It’s such an impressive and effective oil that Young Living has dedicated an entire line to cleaning products with Thieves.
Ways I like to fight germs in my home and in the studio is super easy. I use Thieves in my diffuser throughout the house and I use Thieves Household Cleaner for everything. It’s not just for floors and surfaces. It’s perfect for kitchen, laundry (thieves laundry soap), bathrooms, windows, mirrors, in the car and so much more! It’s such a powerful and affective product that Young Living has a whole line of cleaning products. If you are looking for more than just the cleaner, consider the The Thieves Home Starter Bundle is AMAZING. It’s so concentrated that everything can be split multiple times so that you get more for your dollar.
Life is precious and our loved ones mean everything to us right? I use Thieves to keep our immune systems healthy and for all that it does to keep the home healthy. Low Tox and all natural products are not all the same. It’s important to do your research. If you wanted to chat more, of course I am here to help you too.
If you are on the fence and thinking this is just another product, and what’s the hype all about? I highly encourage you to give it a try. Trust one who has tried just about everything. If you are local to me and interested, reach out. I will happily share this amazing product with you and your family.
Did you know that one bottle of Thieves Household Cleaner yields (29) 500ml spray bottles? It’s so cost effective and multifunctional. If you are thinking of making the switch to a more natural and healthy way of cleaning, Thieves is a natural powerhouse.
Plus it smells amazing! Seriously, check it out. One purchase that you will thank yourself for ;)

3 Tips for Outdoor Family Sessions: Whitby Durham Region Autumn Photoshoot
I completely get it when I hear my clients say that they want an updated Family session but are nervous about all the “what if’s”. I can say this you see because we had our own family session this past Fall and I ran through all the emotions in my head too.
That was until I stopped myself and said, P…just do what you tell your clients to do. Breathe. have fun and Trust in your photographer.
It’s that simple. Just be, have fun and the rest (with some fgentle guidance) will fall into place.
The results…well smiles like this speak for themselves.
Looking forward to another fabulous and stunning Fall with you.
Till next time,
P xo

A Beautiful Fall Family Session: Whitby, GTA Family Photography
Every year I look forward to Fall Family photos with my clients. Scheduling your fall family session is best done as early as possible. My studio and wedding schedule fill up fast so the limited dates remaining are always a juggling act. BUT I will do everything I can (weather pending) to make memories for you with colours and tones like this.
When planning your session, take nap time and your schedule in mind. If you have little ones, we want them happy and fresh. If you have older kids, you have more flexibility to go on little adventures and create memories with them at the same time.
Golden hour before the sun sets is most popular with my clients. You can clearly see why. Warm tones, and sun flares never fail for the emotive and captivating portraits that draw you right in.
If you are thinking of booking a family session, consider booking sooner than later. Contact the studio and we can start planning yours today!
What does your family story look like?
