Limited Edition Fall Mini Sessions | North Bay & Callander Photographer
North Bay – You’ve asked, I’ve listened! I’ve gotten a large number of requests for fall mini sessions this year, and I’ll be honest, I was on the fence about offering them because the season is so short and we’re not at peak colours yet… between trying to coordinate availability amongst myself, clients, Fall colours, and the rain that didn’t seem like it was ever going to let up for a while there, the task seemed daunting. I’m happy now to say that the forecast is looking more promising, the leaves are quickly changing, and I’ve juggled my schedule around a little bit so that I can accommodate THREE evenings worth of mini sessions!
If you’re looking for a handful of gorgeous, fine-art quality portraits at a fraction of my regular prices – now’s your chance! CLICK HERE TO FILL OUT YOUR BOOKING FORM

WHAT CAN WE EXPECT DURING OUR SESSION?
During a session with me, you can expect full direction as far as posing goes! I help to get you and your children into position, I correct your hair if it’s in your face after your hands are positioned, I tell you when to look at me and smile, when to look at your children, I give prompts every single step of the way to take the guess-work out of this for you! When it comes to the kiddos, sometimes they just need to run wild and free, and if this is your child, please don’t fret! I will chase them around and play with them while shooting until I’m satisfied that I have a beautiful gallery to give you to choose from. You can expect laughter, fun, and a beautiful quality final product! If the images below look like something you’d love of your own people, I would love to work with you!

The Shevalier Family | North Bay & Callander Family Photographer
Crisp, Fall air and the sweet smells of baked apples and pumpkin spice make my heart beat faster. Yes, I’m one of THOSE people. I LIVE for photographing families on the beautiful, fiery backdrop of fallen leaves. Last year, I didn’t get the opportunity to photograph many families during peak colours, as I had just undergone surgery. I was pretty excited when I was finally able to pick up my camera again, and when I did, this lovely little family were the first (and only) ones I got to photograph before the leaves had all fallen and the opportunity had passed for other families.
This year, now that we are living in Callander, where the leaves change sooner than they do down South, I’m super excited to have a handful of dates available to photograph families, children, pets and couples during the peak of this season’s beauty.
If you are interested in booking a session in North Bay or Callander during the last week of September/first week of October, please fill out this form and I will get you on the calendar: http://raindancephoto.ca/2019-fall-portrait-sessions-now-booking/
For now, enjoy a few of my favourites of this adorable family from last year! 🙂

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! 😉

The Nolet Family | Callander/North Bay Beach Sessions
Looking back on sessions from last summer, I can almost feel the water up to my hips as I hike my gear up a little higher and capture all of these fun family memories for my clients on the beach! Beach sessions were my most requested location last year, and THIS year, all of my beach sessions will happen in the North Bay/Callander area! I can’t wait to meet new faces and work with new families, and I’m SUPER excited that some of my clients from the Barrie area are already planning their trip North for the summer to catch me for beach sessions up in our new digs! I still have to do some scouting once I’m there to find my favourite spot, but from what I’ve seen so far, the beaches up North are more plentiful and less crowded than the one tiny beach we have to work with down here, so… I’m super pumped!
All of my outdoor sessions happen 2 hours after sunrise, or 2 hours before sunset (sunset is the most popular though, so if you want one of those timeslots, inquire soon!) My schedule this year in Callander/North Bay will be Tuesday, Wednesday, and Thursday evenings at 6 and 7pm. I have four new digital packages available (and just for this year, I’m including my promotional mini pricing as well!) Typically, the promotional pricing is only available for themed events (like the Tree Farm) once or twice a year, but I’m making an exception this year as I rebuild my business in a new area – tell your friends! 😉
Click here for a sneak peek at the new digital packages available for booking for all creative portrait sessions beginning in June, 2019: http://raindancephoto.ca/creative-portrait-pricing-family-maternity-children-babies-3-months/ (Newborn sessions are run differently than regular portrait sessions, so if you’re interested in one of those, please contact me and I’d be happy to send you pricing for those) 🙂
You’ll notice that my packages all include a certain number of digital files with them. Over the years, I’ve found that my clients want digital files, and so that is what I provide (although I do carry a carefully curated line of high-quality boutique products such as albums, prints, and wall art like canvas and standouts for anyone who wants them). Some people want to be able to print their own pictures wherever they want and send them to friends and family online, and so my packages are tailored for that. Some people know that they want to hang just a few pictures in their homes, and so a package with fewer digital files will suffice for them. Some people know that they want to be able to create an album with ALL of the images in their gallery, and so there are All Inclusive package options for those folks too. And, if you’re booking for the first time and don’t really know how things will turn out or what you really want out of your session, there are upgrade options available once you see your images for the first time (and I’m happy to send along A La Carte pricing to anyone who inquires.) 🙂
If you’re wondering at this point, “well, what DOES an entire gallery look like, anyway?” Then scroll down through this incredibly fun session that I had on the beach with this lovely family last summer! I have been working with this family since before their little man was even born, and every time we get together to update their portraits, magic happens! 😉
Any questions at all, just contact me! I’m happy to chat about your photographic wants and needs!
