Choosing the perfect photographer for your Ottawa newborn session can be rather difficult. There are many talented photographers to chose from & many things to consider when trusting someone to preserve this tender season of motherhood.
Whether you are embarking on your motherhood journey as a first time mother or a seasoned, mother of three, you never seem to fathom how quickly your sweet, beautiful baby grows & changes. It truly happens before your very tired eyes — I will admit, motherhood is far from glamorous— which are continuously powered by a very full heart. That is why I am sentimental & intentional in my approach to preserving your motherhood legacy — you are deserving of a perfect experience & imagery that makes you feel time & time again.
As a mother myself, I know all too well how busy motherhood can be, and I have made the conscious decision to provide each mother & her family with a curated to perfection, bespoke approach to motherhood photography. From location & lighting, to design & wardrobe, I have you covered every step of the way with a concierge level of service from start to finish.
Once your session is booked, we will meet for a virtual design consultation where we will discuss the details, such as the overall aesthetic and the location. We will also plan your wardrobe, which will free you from all the other details as I curate the perfect session for you behind the scenes. If you opt to wear clothing from my curated client wardrobe, everything will be washed with gentle, scent free detergent & softeners, steamed and ready for you the day of. All you truly need to do in this case is wake up and let me lead the way.
After we connect and I work my magic behind the scenes, it is time for the fun part of our journey together — capturing your memories! You will have a private session at a location of your choosing (I do have a curated list of my personal favourite locations, if you would like recommendations) with beautiful hair & make-up. Whether you wish to be pampered in home or studio, the day of your session is an opportunity to relax & forget those last minute trips to purchase hair spray. My goal is for you to let go & let be in order to embrace the excitement of your session because after all, I have designed this journey to be a worry-free form of intentional family time.
With my intentional and sentimental approach to preserving memories, I will provide guidance and direction in the form of organic & natural posing, all while ensuring that everyone feels comfortable and confidence in front of my lens. I will adjust your wardrobe, fix the placement of your hair and kindly ask you to re-position yourself if necessary. I truly do dot my i’s and cross my t’s.
Following your session, we will meet virtually for a complementary design & ordering appointment — this is where you will view your timeless, magazine worthy imagery for the first time, and decide on everlasting artwork to adorn in your home. From linen, velvet or matted albums, to various frames, mats and sizes, the options are endless, and I guarantee there is something beautiful with your name on it.
Investing in an experienced, full-service photographer is just that — an investment. While choosing the perfect photographer for your newborn session, please remember that the value of the photos you receive today, will only increase significantly overtime. And while you may feel as though this is a larger investment than you are use to, I invite you to reflect on why you are looking to hire a photographer because Brooke Lacombe Photography is so much more than a photography session. It is a worry-free experience paired with an opportunity to preserve your family’s legacy while you are doing what you do best together — loving one each other.
Do you have questions or wish to learn more about the Brooke Lacombe Photography portraiture experience? Send me an email or schedule a complementary Welcome Call. I would love the opportunity to meet you and discuss how I can preserve your motherhood legacy through timeless imagery — imagery that will not only be difficult to choose between, but will also spark emotion with your heartfelt memories for years and decades to come.
