Floral Summer Newborn | Lace & Locket Photo | Airdrie, Alberta | Airdrie Newborn Photographer

Alice and I have been friends for quite some time, years if we think about it. We both started working at a Vet clinic in Calgary where we bonded over our love of animals. I had a black border Collie, she got a little black pit bull puppy who was SO CUTE. Eventually I left the clinic and we stayed in contact. We eventually met our husbands but Alice came to my first babe’s baby shower and had given us the outfit we brought our first daughter home in! The moral of this story, is that I was honoured that when Alice got pregnant with her own babe, she asked ME to do her newborn photos. She’s also a newborn photographer (you can check out her work here !)

We did Alice’s maternity session back in May at Fish Creek Park in Calgary. That’s probably my favourite park. Her maternity session is definitely one of my absolute favourites I’ve done from there.

When I asked Alice what she had envisioned for her daughter’s session she wanted golds, whites, soft pinks and golds. No problem. Babe made me W O R K but we got it done and when I got her birth announcement in the mail I felt so proud of the shots I had gotten because her birth announcements were S T U N N I N G .

Sweet Raspberries | Lace & Locket Photo | Airdrie Newborn Photographer | Airdrie, AB

This sweet girl’s mama reached out to me right after Christmas hoping to snag a last minute spot for her soon-to-arrive baby girl’s newborn session. They had just moved across country and things can be pushed to the back burner, totally understandable. I was able to get her in and just in time as she gave birth not too long after. I had just gotten some new backdrop fabrics in and mama gave me the all clear to go to town with my own creativity during her session. LIKE WINNING THE PHOTOGRAPHER LOTTERY with this one hahaha. It was so so so much fun photographing this sweet doll.

Funny enough the little bed in the cream coloured photo had arrived THAT DAY and I was so excited to use it I simply couldn’t wait. It arrived while i was shooting so while babe was taking a snack break I ran outside to unpack it and use it! She made me work for it but it turned out so so sweet.

Because Dad had to work the day we chose to the session, I was super ok with having them come back for the family portion. I know that living in Alberta a lot of parents work up North so I try to accommodate their schedules as best I can. The parent shots don’t generally take too long so they were in and out in 20 minutes!

If you’re interested in booking your own newborn session or have any questions, please don’t hesitate to reach out here.

Beautiful Baby R | Airdrie Newborn Photographer | Airdrie, AB | Lace & Locket Photography

This is such a sweet family! This mama has got to have the most amazing, supportive, incredible parents who gifted her a maternity session + newborn session from me for her very first little baby who was coming in December. I was so honoured they chose me when I know there's so much amazing talent & options around for maternity and newborn photographers and yet they chose me so I wanted to provide an exceptional experience for them. 

Mama had her maternity session back in October and you can see that session here. She wore a red maternity gown from my collection and I wanted to tie the sessions together somehow - coordinate them - so I got one my favourite prop suppliers (check her Etsy page out here) to custom create a little romper + tieback set specifically for this baby before she was born. 

Sweet Baby R was the only baby in December that was born after her due date. She was also the ONLY baby that did not need to have her session reshot due to fuss or lack of cooperation. She was an absolute dream which I was so relieved about after a month of babies who didn't want to be wrapped, didn't want to sleep or settle or have me in their face with my big black camera. Her session was shot in her own home where I travelled to, in her bay window with stunningly natural, beautiful light. LOVED IT.

April Mountain Maternity Session | Lake Minnewanka | Mountain Maternity | Calgary Maternity & Newborn Photographer | Lace & Locket Photography

This was such a fun session! I have never met such a fun family! Ty messaged me only a couple weeks before her session was to take place and originally she wanted to just have a maternity session done in her home but soon changed her mind once she saw the mountain maternity sessions on my website. When we met in the mountains on this exceptional April day, it was love at first sight and magic was made! She was stunning in every dress I put her in and we laughed so much as she changed and the love between her and Jason was pure magic. I didnt have to tell them what to do or how to pose, they just set the stage with their emotions and it was amazing! 

At the end of the session Ty had such a great time she asked me to shoot her baby's newborn session when she arrived and we did it just last weekend. Like baby B was absolutely perfect. Watch for her session on the blog in a couple weeks !
