2024 was a year full of the challenges and ups and downs that I know many small businesses have faced lately. I know the economy hasn’t been wonderful, and that makes me even more grateful to each and every one of you for choosing me, for trusting me to capture your special moments and memories. I very much look forward to continuing to grow through these challenges, and I have so much hope and vision for the future of Raindance Photography.
2025 will be a year of personal and professional growth for me. I have so much planned – from an entire years’ line up of Mini Events to investing in professional development and honing my skill. I am looking forward to spending time in all of my favourite places between Barrie, Midland, Penetanguishene, Callander, North Bay and beyond photographing all of your beautiful smiling faces; your sweet, brand new squishy newborns, and your favourite furry friends too!
I am wishing you all the warmest wishes for a safe and Happy New Year and health and abundance for the year to come.
Love,
Stephanie, Your Photographer 😉

I have a bunch of newborn backdrops that I’ve had in my collection for ages, but for whatever reason, I haven’t had the opportunity to use them and I would absolutely LOVE to! As adorable as this little stuffed lamb is, it’s not the same as a sweet and squishy newborn baby. 😛
So! If you or someone you know is due to have a baby in June, this deal is for you! Feel free to share it with anyone else who might be interested. I will only be offering one or two deals per backdrop, so make sure to sign up before your choice is taken. This promotion is for The Wrapped Mini Collection, which includes up to 1.5 hours in-studio, baby is photographed all wrapped up nice and snug on one set, and 8 digital files of your choice (which you choose from a private online ordering gallery). This collection is regularly $250 (including hst) and will be 50% off ($125) when booking one of the sets shown below!
To snag your appointment, please fill out this form and submit electronically as soon as you can: Newborn Session Wish List Booking Form
Sessions take place Monday-Friday at 10am at my Studio in Callander (Terrace Road). If you have any questions or have any difficulty with the booking form, please email info@raindancephoto.ca and I will get back to you as soon as I can.
I will be in contact with anyone who signs up via email, so please check your junk folders if you don’t receive anything back from me within 48 hours.
Over the years, my newborn sessions have all focused on baby. The new addition to the family, a session to celebrate their arrival and document this special time in a family’s life, photographing baby on multiple backdrops, on different colours and in different props… Some of my packages included the option for family portraits and siblings, but because posing baby on all of the different sets on their own takes so much time and patience, the family segment is always a quick add-in at the beginning of the session and then we move on to focus on baby alone.
I’ve been noticing a gap in my package offerings as of late, particularly for the crowd who has older siblings, and so I’ve finally remedied it! Introducing the brand new “Family + Newborn” Collection!
This package combines everything I know and love about my family sessions AND newborn sessions and rolls them all together into one perfect package so that, in the end, you’re left with a beautiful gallery with everything you need to update family albums and create art walls in your home. Bonus is that because it takes me a bit less time to complete, it comes with a lower price tag as well (not by a lot, but any savings is good, right!?) 😛
The Family + Newborn Collection begins with two different poses of family portraits (standing and sitting), and then a set with just parents and their new bundle. Images of just each parent on their own with new baby are captured, and if there are older siblings involved they get to have their picture taken with each of them as well. Then, we move on to sibling portraits and capture all of those beautiful kiddos together. The one major change to this collection that the other packages don’t have is the incorporation of individual portraits of each child. You’re photographing your brand new baby all by themselves, so I really felt that any and all older siblings deserved to have updated portraits of themselves as well. This is a super important and exciting time in all of their lives, and they deserve to be remembered just how they are, right now, as well.
After siblings have had their time to shine in front of the camera, then it’s baby’s turn. New baby is photographed wrapped, on one solid colour backdrop from multiple angles (including those gorgeous macro (close up) shots of their little features – lips, eyelashes, ears, fingers, toes…) If baby’s temperament will allow, then I peel back the layers of wrap and attempt a few different poses on that same backdrop. The end result is a perfect, cohesive gallery, and I love everything about it. I hope that you all will too!
