You just had a baby. You’re tired. You’re healing. You’re feeding around the clock.

The last thing you need is one more thing to plan.

But these first weeks go by so fast. One day you’ll look back and wish you had more than blurry phone pics from 3am.

That’s why we made the Newborn Simplicity Session. It’s short, calm & simple - so you can actually enjoy it.

How your hour goes

You’re at the studio for about an hour. We only photograph for 15 minutes.

The rest is easy, slow time:

Choosing your outfits from our studio wardrobe
Soothing & settling baby
Feeding breaks whenever baby needs one

Babies set the pace here. If baby needs a break, we take one.

Meet Karen

Hi, I’m Karen. I’ve been photographing families in Niagara for over 20 years. More than 750 families so far.

I’m a mom of four, and I barely remember those early newborn days. I don’t want that for you.

Our studio in Grimsby is calm, warm & made for new babies. You just show up. We’ll handle the rest.

What clients are saying about maternity photography at Reflections:

"I never get a chance to dress up, but Karen and Christine made everything so effortless and comfortable for me. Karen had a whole wardrobe to choose from. The studio is beautiful and the ambiance was very calming. I love that our journey will be captured beautifully through Karen's lens from the beginning and as our family grows."
