Documentary Lifestyle Newborn Sessions | North Bay & Barrie Newborn Photographer
Lifestyle newborn sessions like this one allow us to document those early days of your new baby’s life, freezing moments in time for you to cherish forever. These sessions are available in the North Bay area at a discounted price point, OR in the comfort of your own home in Barrie, Midland, Penetanguishene, Gravenhurst or Huntsville.
These sessions are best done while baby is between 5-21 days of age, and are best booked while you are still expecting (although if baby has arrived and you’d like to book, I can accommodate last minute requests, so don’t be afraid to reach out!)
Documentary Lifestyle sessions are also ideal for those families who have missed that first-few-weeks window of new baby’s life for whatever reason, and now have an older baby but would still like to capture this fleeting time.
Please share this with anyone expecting a new wee family member and I would be happy to send along more information and pricing.

Kruz | North Bay/Callander Newborn Baby Photographer
I am embarrassingly behind on blogging sessions (like, far enough behind that the fine folks I’m about to feature in this blog have had another baby since! lol!) I do have so much content that I want to share though, so I’m just going to start sharing! For anyone who doesn’t know, I photograph maternity, families (young and old!), babies in all stages, newborns, birthday portraits (including cake smashes) and even pets! I have so many sessions to share that I haven’t over the last year, I hope you’re ready for an influx of gorgeous photos! Subscribe to the blog if you’re interested in being notified when these come out (at the bottom of the page). 🙂
Anyhow, this little man’s session happened about a year ago in my studio (which will be moving to Callander, Ontario, as of May 30th this year!) I am available to take last minute newborn bookings in Barrie up until May 24, 2019, so if you’ve been meaning to book and haven’t yet or if, in May, you hear someone saying that they dropped the ball on booking their newborn portraits and can’t find a photographer with availability, send them my way! I have weekday availability at 10am for newborns until Friday May 24th. 🙂
I will begin accepting newborn bookings in my temporary Callander Studio (while my new studio is under construction) as of mid-June, 2019. For anyone interested in newborn pricing, please click here: http://raindancephoto.ca/newborn-collections-pricing/
Ever wonder what an “entire gallery” of newborn portraits looks like from a “Full Session”? Scroll down to see! (Set colours are determined based on client responses to their “Styling Questionnaire”, which they receive while booking their session.)

Welcome Lily | Barrie Newborn Baby Photographer
It’s been nearly a year since I did something that nobody ever wants to have to do for their best friend. One year ago this month, my best friend gave birth to a beautiful baby girl, who wasn’t meant to stay Earthside for very long. Baby Isabelle lived for a few short hours, touching all of our hearts, before gaining her wings.
I have photographed every major event for this family – from their wedding, first pregnancy, two newborn sessions, cake smashes, family sessions, you name it… so when I wasn’t able to find them a volunteer photographer through Now I Lay Me Down to Sleep in time, I jumped on the GO Train and made the trek from Union Station to Mount Sinai where I photographed their sweet girl before they had to say goodbye. It may have been the most heartbreaking and difficult thing I’ve ever done, and at the same time so fulfilling to be able to give them the gift of memories to cherish forever – so that when they couldn’t hold her, they could at least look back on her through these photographs.
When Mama told me that they were expecting again, we were all cautiously elated together. This is what happens with “Rainbow Babies” though…they are so very wanted, prayed for, hoped for, longed for… but because of the tragic loss parents have experienced before them, there is always that fear of the unknown…
Two weeks ago now, sweet little Lily Isabelle was born – perfect in every way. When her Mama asked me to create a “Rainbow Baby” set for her, I knew I wanted to keep it true to my style – simple, timeless, and classic. HUGE thank you to The Felted Pizza for coming up with the perfect little prop to pull off the job!
This morning, I had the enormous privilege of meeting and photographing Lily for the first time and she was amazing for me! I am so in love with her gallery, there was no way I was going to be able to choose just one sneak peek for her parents, so I decided to share the images that honour sweet Isabelle in this blog post.
Huge congratulations to Mom, Dad, Chloe and Hunter on the birth of your new baby girl!
In Loving Memory of Sweet Isabelle

Mitchell | Barrie Newborn Baby, Child, and Family Photographer
I love when I get to photograph an expectant Mama, and then get to meet her newborn baby just a few short weeks later! I still find it so amazing… new life. During the maternity session, there’s this anticipation and excitement, waiting for the unknown; and it’s so amazing to get to meet that new tiny human for the first time and help their parents to document every little thing about them. All of those fleeting little features that will soon begin to grow and change, in what seems like the blink of an eye. Those tiny little fingers and toes, the little milk bubbles on their lips, and the layer of hair that’s usually still on the tops of their ears. After those first few weeks, that teeny little face starts to fill out, and those little legs and arms start to get stronger, and too soon, we forget just how little they were when they were freshly Earth-side.
That’s why I’m here. That’s why I take my job so seriously – I know, first hand, how the new-parent-fog and fatigue makes it so difficult to really appreciate and remember these tiny details, and so it is my mission to freeze all of them in time for you. So that when you look back on these images that were captured in those first 14 days of life, you will be able to see and remember just how sweet this time really was.
Earlier this year, I had the pleasure of meeting Mitchell and his beautiful family. This gallery has since been one of my favourites, and I love that his parents received every single image you see, so that they can treasure them for a lifetime.
I am now booking newborns with due dates January-April, 2019. If you are interested in finding out more about a session, please CONTACT ME! I’d be happy to answer any questions that you may have. 🙂

Pierce | Barrie Newborn Baby Photographer
It’s about time I start sharing some of the many newborn galleries from sessions I did back in the Winter! I met with Pierce and his adorable family back in February in my studio when he was just days old. They were all amazing – I was especially thrilled with how excited his big brother was to give him snuggles while smiling for my camera!
Just a little booking update that I have VERY limited availability for this Fall season – with no availability in October. I am currently accepting the following due dates:
September – 2 (with possible arrivals no later than the week of September 17th) all sessions must happen before September 28th.
October – None.
November – 3
December – 1 due date, early to mid month only
It is best to book your session while you are still expecting so I can guarantee you space in my calendar. If you’d like to check out pricing, please click HERE. To book your session or inquire for more information, please click HERE.
And now, how cute are these guys!?

Harrison & Jason | Barrie Twin Newborn Baby Photographer
It has been 7 months since I met these two adorable little nuggets in my Barrie photography studio for their newborn session! They were born two whole months early, so when I got my hands on them, they were already 8 weeks old (I saw them on their original due date! How cool is that?) I typically see newborns for their sessions in the first 14 days of life (21 days is generally the oldest I like to take), but since these two still hadn’t reached their due date yet, my assistant and I were able to work them through an entire sessions worth of posing in an hour and a half! They were rockstars! Thanks to mom and dad for trusting me to capture such a special time in your lives. 🙂
We’re heading into what I like to call “busy season” in September-November, which coincidentally is when a HUGE amount of babies are also due… if you are currently expecting, the best time for you to book your session is while you’re still pregnant. Once baby arrives, during peak seasons, I can’t always guarantee that I will be able to fit you in (as much as I would love to!) I can only take 4 newborn sessions per month to guarantee timeslots to babies who arrive early or late. So, if you’ve been thinking about booking, but haven’t yet, click HERE and cross that one off your To-Do List today!!

Jack | Barrie Newborn Baby & Family Photographer
I thought I should maybe blog this sweet newborn session from last Fall before I see this family again next month for Jack’s half-year Sitter Milestone session!
I saw little Jack and his family in my Barrie photography studio last November for his newborn session when he was just days old. I had such a streak of luck that week with amazing older siblings giving me absolute GOLD when it came to sibling newborn portraits, and these two brothers were no exception.
Newborn portraits are some of my absolute favourite moments to photograph – they’re only this little once, the time is so fleeting, and by the time you see your images for the first time, they’ve already changed so much! I currently have just TWO newborn spaces left for the Summer. If you’re expecting in July or August and would like to secure a date for yourself, please do so before baby has been born so that I can guarantee you space in my calendar. 🙂
And now, enjoy Jack’s newborn gallery!
