Maternity… birth… the first days… the first steps… these are the moments to cherish forever but they go by in the blink of an eye.

Our little ones grow so fast and the very best way to capture and savor every milestone is with beautiful professional photography that brings back the joy of the moment and allows you to share the moment with others.

I’m Ottawa Newborn Photographer Katherine Hoos and I’d like to help you preserve your special moments.

Whether it’s a Maternity session to celebrate your last moments as a couple before your family grows, a Newborn session to welcome and announce the little one’s arrival, there’s always a reason to celebrate your family with photos.
Many families celebrate milestones like sitting or other special markers like 6 months with a Milestone Session. I also offer what I call the Baby Book Quickie which is an affordable way to get a couple of great photos for the baby book without investing in a full session. For their First Birthday a popular option is a cake smash, but there are plenty of less messy options.
Family Sessions are always available!

Here are the regular sessions I offer. If you don’t see what you’re looking for, I also create custom sessions—just get in touch for a quote.

Maternity

$200
Maternity sessions are so much fun! Feeling apprehensive about being photographed is normal. Our bodies change so fast during pregnancy that our body image has a hard time keeping up. While you may not feel like the beautiful earth goddess that society and the media portray as the typical pregnancy experience (it’s not), let me show you how stunningly gorgeous you are.

Here’s what you’ll get:

  • A session you’ll never forget: A relaxing, empowering, fun session (with chocolates for a sweet treat) in the setting of your choice. (I can make some recommendations if you’re not sure.)
  • My best work to bring out your best! After our session, I’ll retouch and carefully craft the images to make sure they bring out your very best features and will truly reflect how beautiful you are.
  • Exclusive access to your own online gallery: You’ll receive exclusive access to a password-protected online gallery with 12 beautiful photos, proudly watermarked with my gallery stamp.
  • Sharing-ready images: The photos in your online gallery will be set up with an “online sharing” resolution to make it easy to share your photos on social media or by email.
  • A beautiful print-ready image of this magical moment: You’ll also be able to choose one of those gallery images as a full-resolution digital file with or without my studio watermark (your choice) that is suitable for printing.

  • You are welcome to include your spouse or your child’s siblings in the photoshoot at no additional cost.
  • Additional print-ready digital files are available for purchase if you have more than one in your gallery that you’d like printed.
  • Prints can also be purchased directly from me if you’d prefer to avoid the hassle of getting the digital file and finding a store to print them. 

Newborn

$400
The first weeks of bringing a new member of your family home pass by in a blur of sleeplessness, feedings and diaper changes. Before you know it, they have doubled their birth weight and learned new skills. Every newborn is perfect and unique. Capturing these fleeting moments is my favourite part of doing what I do. Come relax at my in home studio. (The room will be warmer than we’d like, to keep baby comfortable) You can be as involved as you’d like, or you can relax on my couch, catch up on social media or even take a well deserved nap. I will photograph a variety of poses on the beanbag and in various props. I can include almost anything that has meaning for you and I love preparing themes in advance.

Here’s what you’ll get:

  • A session you’ll never forget: Sit back, relax, and have fun in my studio while I photograph your beautiful child! 
  • My best work to make these moments as beautiful as they can be! After our session, I’ll retouch and carefully craft the images to make sure they highlight just how precious your child is.
  • Exclusive access to your own online gallery: You’ll receive exclusive access to a password-protected online gallery with 20 beautiful photos, proudly watermarked with my gallery stamp.

First Birthday

$200
Baby’s first birthday is a celebration not just for baby, but for the parents as well. You’ve survived infancy and now it’s time to move on to the next challenge, toddlerhood! For the first birthday, many families do a “smash” session. The most common being a Cake Smash, but many creative options are available such as fruit smashes or even donut smashes. These sessions take place in my home studio, and with a bathtub nearby. We can even add on a bubble bath session after the smash for cute clean up photos as well.

Here’s what you’ll get:

  • A session you’ll never forget: Let’s share those moments together while I capture them for you to enjoy forever!
  • My best work to make these moments as memorable as they can be! After our session, I’ll retouch and carefully craft the images to make sure they highlight just how precious your child is.

Family

$300
It’s easy to get caught up in the busyness of life. The day-to-day demands of appointments and laundry can sometimes make you forget the love and care that is the foundation of your family. You deserve to put the other stuff aside for a moment and just revel in being together with each other, and to capture that moment to share with the world. (Guess what, the laundry will still be there later; take a moment for yourself and your family now!) There are many beautiful outdoor locations both in and outside the City of Ottawa. Depending on the size of your family, there are also options for indoor in my studio space or a more lifestyle approach with me coming to you.

Here’s what you’ll get:

  • A session you’ll never forget: Let’s share those moments together while I capture them for you to enjoy forever!
  • My best work to make this time with your family so special! After our session, I’ll retouch and carefully craft the images to make sure they highlight just how amazing and loving your family is together.

Watching little ones grow and change over time is wonderful. I have many amazing clients that I’ve worked with from maternity through to toddlerhood and beyond.

Designed for one child only, these sessions happen at my in home studio with one set up – during designated timeslots.
