Meet your photographer

Hi, I’m Sahar.

Photographer, mother, and keeper of the moments that pass too quickly.

With a bachelor’s degree in photography and years of studio experience, I bring an artistic eye and a calm, thoughtful approach to every session. From wardrobe guidance to gentle posing, you will never be left wondering what to do.

My goal is simple: to create photographs that feel like art today—and like home years from now.

When should I book a newborn session?

You can enquire during pregnancy using your estimated due date. We’ll confirm the session date together once your baby arrives.

Session Terms & Policies

Booking & deposit

A flat $80 non-refundable deposit by Interac e-transfer reserves your date. Your date is confirmed once the deposit is received. We’ll confirm availability and send the payment details before you pay. The deposit goes toward your total.

Payment

All prices include HST. The remaining balance is due on your session day — cash or Interac e-transfer, your choice.

Rescheduling & cancellation

You can reschedule once free of charge with at least 7 days’ notice, subject to availability. Cancellations or rescheduling with less than 72 hours’ notice, and no-shows, forfeit the deposit — a new $80 deposit is needed to rebook.

For a change requested between 72 hours and 7 days before your session, please message us to discuss availability and the options before making a new booking.

On the day

Sessions run back-to-back, so please arrive on time. Arriving more than 20 minutes late may shorten your session. Children must be supervised at all times.

Baby sessions follow your little one’s comfort, with time for feeding and soothing. If anyone is unwell, please message us before coming.

Your photos

You’ll receive your edited gallery by download link within 3 weeks of your session. Your photos are for personal use: printing, sharing with family and posting on your own social media.

We only share your photos on our Instagram or website with your explicit permission. You choose “Yes, you may share my photos” or “No, please keep them private” in your session agreement. Neither choice is preselected, and keeping your photos private does not affect your price or session.
