The Chivers Family | Barrie Family & Child Photographer
I loooooooved this session! This session is the PERFECT example of how wardrobe choice can turn your session into something MAGICAL! When these guys showed up to our location and stepped out of their vehicle, I just about died with excitement when I saw what they were wearing! I’ve been dying to share their gallery with you, as it is one of my absolute favourites.
I currently only have 1 evening timeslot left before daylight savings time kicks in, but I have FIVE premium sunrise sessions left, which are absolutely AMAZING to take advantage of! The light in the early morning hours can turn your portraits from “Oh that’s nice” to “WOW!” If you can manage to get up nice and early for just ONE morning, I promise you it will be worth it!

2017 Fall Family Sessions | Barrie Family Photographer
I know, I know… we’re in the final stretch of Summer Holidays and the last thing you want to hear about is the fact that the leaves are about to start changing colours and the temperature is going to go South before long… However, in the land of Professional Photography, now is the time when our calendars are filling up so it is my humble duty to put this out there for all of you who have been considering family portraits this Fall. 😛
For some of you, updating your family portraits is a regular thing. I personally update mine every two years… but for the rest of you out there, you may have never experienced custom professional photography before, and you might be wondering why in the world you should start now? Let me answer that for you…
Why Should I Have Family Portraits Done?
Well… once upon a time, you probably had a sweet little baby that you held in your arms and rocked to sleep each night while feeling like you’d never get a good night sleep again…But there’s no way that you’d trade the feel of that warm, snuggly little sleeping body for anything… Then, maybe you had the cute albeit mischievous little toddler, who wreaked havoc around the house, but then redeemed themselves in the cutest possible way right before you lost your mind and you’ll never forget that look that they had that melted your heart each time… Then there was the sass that came with the school years, and the look of concentration on their little faces while they learned so many fascinating new things…
And now here you are today, and your children have morphed into new little people. Gone is the little baby and the mischievous toddler, and you’d give anything to have them back for just a day. They’re there in your memory, but you’ll notice with each passing year that the memories get just a tad bit more fuzzy. When I first starting photographing my children and having my own family portraits done professionally, I was SO excited to see the end results, to print them in albums and hang them on my walls. They meant so much to me to have at first, but what I didn’t anticipate was how much MORE they’d mean to me years down the road. My children are now almost 7 and 9, and when I see portraits of them and our family from 3 or 4 years ago it literally boggles my mind how much we’ve all changed. We are all new people now, changing constantly, and my heart will forever be grateful to have these moments in our lives frozen forever in portraits, from the perspective of a professional photographer, who is trained to see special little moments differently than the average person.
So, back to the question then – Why should YOU have family portraits done? Simple. To take your lives, which are flying by at mach speed, and freeze them in time for just one evening, so that you can look back on them forever. So that one day, when your children are older, you can open up that album and have that “remember when?” chat with them. Family portraits are one of my favourite types of sessions, because I get to capture the bonds that exist within your family – so that Mom can finally see how her children adore her, and so dad can see how his children look at him when he doesn’t notice. Believe me folks, it’s an eye opener and an amazing experience that I look forward to for my own family each and every time.
How Can You Book?
Simply email info@raindancephoto.ca OR use the Contact Form on my website to contact me directly. There are only a few dates left for the Fall, so don’t wait too long! I’m HIGHLY recommending clients take advantage of the Limited Edition Sunrise sessions this season – I know it seems early, but the light is better than any other time of day, making for some truly amazing portraits!
The Matthews Family | Barrie Family and Child Photographer
The week before school started in September, I met up with this fabulous family to update their family portraits. I feel like when I say “update their portraits” it sounds so impersonal… technically, that’s what I’m doing… but what I’m REALLY setting out to do is more magical than that… Every portrait session I go in to, I’m going in with the goal of capturing the essence of a person’s soul – the deep connections that each person has with other members of their family… the LOVE that runs throughout a family unit. I LOVE being able to connect with each child to draw out their true spirit, to capture it forever in a photograph (and anyone who’s ever worked with me knows that my inner goofball comes out to make this happen!) 😛
There is nothing more special for me than sitting down with clients a few weeks after their session and watching their reactions as they see their images for the first time. I’ve seen tears of joy, laughter, and life-changing revelations when parents see just how their children SEE them for the first time. Sometimes, we are so caught up in the race of every day life that we forget to slow down and see how those little eyes see us, as parents. Photographs freeze those fleeting moments for you to cherish for a lifetime. Those moments are why I am so very passionate about what I do. If you would like me to help you preserve some of these moments, please Contact Me today – my calendar is nearly full from now until the New Year, and I am holding a $200 off promotion until I’m fully booked! I look forward to hearing from you! 🙂

The Farrell Family | Barrie Family and Child Photographer
I recently photographed this gorgeous family at The Beach here in Barrie. They were the second last session of the summer before school started again, and I couldn’t believe how much the girls had grown over the last year! I have been fortunate enough to be photographing this family for a while now, and have absolutely loved watching them grow!
The weather is starting to change, and I think my remaining days at the beach this year are numbered, so I’m enjoying them while I can! I now only have THREE dates left for the outdoor Fall Family promo, so if you’re interested please don’t wait to book or you might miss out! Contact me today to book!
The Boate Family | Barrie Family and Child Photographer
Since I’m really excited about the imminent changing of the leaves and the onset of Fall colours, I thought I’d share with you a session from last year that I never did have a chance to share earlier! I met up with the Boate Family one chilly Fall evening to update their family portraits. The leaves last year took their time changing colours, but luckily there was SOMETHING for us to work with on that particular evening! 🙂 There’s just something about throwing around dead leaves that brings kids and adults alike so much JOY! 😛
Have you booked your Fall portraits yet? I know back to school time is always crazy for families and booking your portraits is the last thing on your mind, but I have only FOUR timeslots now remaining for outdoor family sessions for the Fall. I am providing a $200 discount on any of my packages to the next four clients to contact me to book those timeslots! This time of year is so popular because Christmas is right around the corner, and grandparents LOVE receiving pictures as gifts!

The Van Schneydel Family | Barrie Child and Family Photographer
It’s been nearly a year since I met up with this fabulous family for a Fall Photo Session here in Barrie! The colours last year were late, but these guys were lucky to have some fall leaves to play in during their session! I love this time of year so much… warm, earthy colours; sweaters and jeans (if it ever cools down, lol), pumpkin spice lattes, turning on the fireplace for the first time! I do love summer, but I LOVE Autumn more!
I currently have 6 remaining timeslots available for Fall colours – and because I love these sessions SO MUCH I have decided to offer a limited time promotional $200 OFF ANY PACKAGE for those 6 sessions only! Interested? Mention this blog post when you email me to receive the promotional price! Please email me to book your session (info@raindancephoto.ca)

The Falco Family | Barrie Baby, Child, and Family Photographer
I know it’s only March… I know we didn’t really have THAT long of a winter… but I’m about to throw a child-sized tantrum because I want to be outdoors shooting in the gorgeous, comforting warmth of summer! I want to smell flowers and swat away mosquitos, and chase sweaty little children and their families around a field in the setting, golden sunlight because that’s what I LOVE!
Ok… end pity party. 😛 Instead, I will share a favourite session from last Fall with one of my favourite families ever! I’ve been working with them for a very long time, and love every opportunity that I have to capture their awesome personalities!
Want on my calendar? Now booking for May, June, July, and August! August is nearly full. Contact me today to inquire! 🙂

The Nolet Family | Barrie Family and Child Photographer
I always love working with this family! I have been working with them since little Mason was still in his mom’s belly. I had so much fun, last Fall, watching the kids run around together, having fun during our photo session at The Arboretum! Just look at Mason’s face in the images below, he was clearly having a blast! 😉
I am so looking forward to getting outdoors for all of the family sessions that are lined up starting in May! Tuesday, Wednesday, and Thursday evenings at 5:45 and 6:45 pm – if you’re interested in snagging one of the 8 spots available each month, please let me know! 🙂
Happy Friday everyone!
