Yay! I am so excited about this event and can't wait to capture you & your little(s). Please feel free to get in touch with any questions that you have prior to the day of the event. Contact me at jamie@redwagonphotography.ca or 780.451.9132.
Some notes:
- On the day of the session, I have a very busy schedule so please, please, please be on time or 5 minutes early.
- Due to Covid-19 safety precautions, please text me when you arrive at 780-554-9132 & wait in your vehicle. We have left extra time for sanitizing between sessions & we'll send you a text back when we are ready for you to enter the studio.
- Unfortunately due to Covid concerns, please refrain from bringing any props or other personal items along for your session.
- There are no cameras permitted of any kind. This includes video cameras and camera phones.
- Please come prepared (full tummy, dressed, & well rested) for your session. If you would like to borrow from the Studio Wardrobe for either mama or littles, let me know the sizes you may need & I'll pull some options for you.
- Due to the limited time of these sessions, no clothing changes are permitted during the session.
These sessions are designed to be FUN!! We are going to let you play & cuddle! While I will always take some images with everyone looking at the camera & smiling, I always want to create images that showcase the special connection that you have with your children, as well as the personalities in your family. I love to step back and give you space to connect with each other & be in the moment. I will absolutely tell you where I need you to be and give you direction throughout the session, but I really want to capture the REAL interactions.
Relax & trust me
This is the best way to achieve those intimate, connected images. Please do not tell your children to smile at the camera, & don’t become frustrated if you feel that things aren’t going the way that you planned. Interact with your children as you normally would. Whisper secrets in their ear while you cuddle them close. Shower them with kisses. Lift them up & tickle them. Let your kids be themselves & relax into the moment.
If you come prepared to laugh, cuddle, & have a great time with your loves, I’ll do the rest.

These sessions are designed to be FUN!! We are going to let you play & cuddle! While I will always take some images with everyone looking at the camera & smiling, my goal is to always capture the natural interactions - & yes, sometimes that includes crying ;) At some points during the session, I may request your help to get them looking or smiling. If I have not asked for your assistance, please do not request that they look at the camera or say "Cheese". Capturing real expressions & interactions is my specialty, & that is really what I want to deliver in your final gallery.
You will have a minimum of 10 images to choose from via a private, password protected online gallery that will be sent out within 3 days of your session. The galleries will be available online for 48 hours for you to select your included images, & any additional A La Carte Heirloom Product. The gallery will contain one fully edited image, with the rest being lightly edited. Any images chosen for products or digital files will be fully retouched before ordering or delivery. Any Digital Files ordered will be available to download from a private password protected gallery within one week of the order being placed. If additional items ordered from the A La Carte Menu, you will be contacted once they arrive & we'll make arrangements for you to pick them up. You may also choose to have items shipped directly to you for an additional charge.
Please feel free to check out THE STYLE GUIDE! It's a really good place to start looking for wardrobe inspiration for your session.
Soft fabrics, layering, some texture...
I have shopped the ZARA website for you & created a Pinterest Board with links that will take you right to the items. Purchase right from there or just use this board as a visual guide to inspire your choices.
- Be prepared & choose your outfits well in advance
- Don’t be afraid to ask for advice; feel free to email or text at 780.554.9132
- Lay all of the outfits out together... it will become apparent quickly if there is an item of clothing that doesn't belong.
- Choose a classic, neutral palette with soft accent colours
- Avoid T shirts with writing, logos or characters
- Consider adding a small, neutral print or pattern for interest
- Accessories are good, but remember sometimes less is more
- Since these are studio sessions, we will likely photograph your family barefoot
- Consider getting your hair & make-up done professionally
- Make sure your children feel comfortable with their outfits
- Check the fine details & make sure everything is polished
Neutral colours & soft, flowing fabrics will result in soft & organic images. Keeping your clothing palette neutral allows the focus of your images to be natural connection & authentic emotion.
Having your hair & makeup done prior to your session is a way to ensure that you look like your freshest & most gorgeous self & I highly recommend it!
