2024 Year in Review | North Bay & Callander Photographer
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 😉

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.

Barrie Portrait Sessions 2023 | Family & Child Photographer
Once upon a time, I lived in Barrie. My business was born there, and it was there where it grew to be what it is today. When I moved away in 2019, I vowed to come back to see whoever wanted to see me for portraits at least once each year for as long as I could.
This year, I’m able to make it back just once, and there are still a few time slots available while I’m in town! 🙂
WHEN? Sunday August 20th (Available Appointment times at 5:15pm and 7:30pm remaining) & Monday August 21st at 7am.
WHERE? Due to backdrop variety and rain cover in the event of inclement weather, these sessions will be held at Sunnidale Park in Barrie.

I know, I know. “It’s only JULY, Stephanie!” I can hear all of you screaming curses at me from the rooftop for even thinking about Christmas Minis in July.

These sessions aren’t overly “propped” so you can hang them on your walls year round, make a fun album to remember your family and children at this time in your lives, or even make your annual Christmas cards with them!
WHEN? Saturday October 26, 2019 from 8:40am-5pm (Rain Date is Sunday October 27, 2019, same times)
WHERE? Drysdales Tree Farm, Egbert

Chip, Kelsey & Bailey | North Bay/Callander Pet Photographer
It’s been a while since I did this session, but I loved EVERY SECOND of it! I received a request to photograph not only the pet dogs of this family, but their beloved horse (Bailey) as well! I was given an address of a beautiful farm on the outskirts of Barrie, and when I arrived, I was overcome with the peace and serenity of the place. We brought Chip, Kelsey and Bailey out to the back field for their session, and as the sun began to dip behind the trees, the sky was glowing and everything felt magical. The animals were happy and loved running around and putting on a show for my camera.
I love photographing humans – but there’s something about photographing animals that’s just so pure and honest. Being a pet photographer is so rewarding, people hire me for many different reasons (some happy, some sad), and being able to help them through whatever those times might be makes my soul feel full. I’ve photographed everything from dogs and cats to horses, alpacas, ducks (baby ducks too!), guinea pigs, hamsters, fancy pigeons and even a pet Goldfish named Gus. 😛
Just when I think I couldn’t possibly love my job any more than I already do, I will get a request to photograph animals and then I’m reminded that I really DO have the most awesome job in the whole world! 😉
