The maternity Experience

Congratulations mama! Whether this is your first baby or your fifth, capturing the precious moments of your newborn is a must. Your baby is only a newborn for 4 short weeks, and the snuggles, sleepless nights, and tiny outfits will go by faster than you want. 

As a photographer specializing in baby's first year, and family portraits, I understand the importance of preserving these fleeting moments. My newborn prep guide will ensure a successful session that results in the sweetest photos. I'll guide you every step of the way, from selecting outfits from my client closet to arranging for hair and makeup (if you'd like). During your session, I'll take care of all the hard work so that you can relax and take a break from the newborn chaos.

Your session will take place in my Peachland Studio. I'll provide all the props and accessories, but if you have any special items you'd like to include, feel free to bring them along. 

As part of my baby plan membership, you'll have access to exclusive benefits and discounts on all of my newborn photography services. This includes priority booking and guaranteed availability for your newborn session, as well as a complimentary petite milestone session.

My goal is to provide you with beautiful, timeless images that you'll treasure for years to come. I can't wait to meet you and your new baby and help you create lasting memories. Let's start capturing the moments that matter most!

a baby fills a place in your heart that you never knew was empty. 

Initiate the process by reaching out through my contact page. We'll schedule a call, during which you can share insights into your family dynamics and vision for the session. I'll walk you through the entire session experience, addressing any questions you may have along the way.

This consultation is a supportive space to ensure every element aligns with your expectations, making your photography experience seamless and unforgettable.

The maternity Process

Choosing Alysha as my photographer was a no-brainer for me – I craved that cozy in-studio vibe, plus their editing game is top-notch! As I never had a newborn session with my first, the lead-up to the maternity/newborn session had me feeling a delightful mix of excitement and "What on earth should I expect?" vibes. But guess what? The session itself? A blast! My absolute favorite part? The photographer's knack for chatting with us throughout – it made everything feel like a fun family hangout. Post-session, I was on cloud nine, knowing those photos were going to be pure magic. Quick tip for fellow moms considering a session: Speak up about what you want, and watch the magic happen!

Alysha has been photographing our family since my daughter’s birth seven years ago. Year after year, she delivers amazing family photos. A great photographer (who is especially good dealing with small children) is invaluable. We are fortunate to have found Alysha!

Being an #aspfamily means getting the best quality photos of your family, she captures the most special moments of our family, I am OBSESSED with all of our photos Alysha has taken of us. She makes you feel at ease, not awkward at all. Hands down my favourite photographer

We love working with Alysha so much that we keep going back! I hired her to do our daughters newborn photos, and when she was 9days old we took her to the studio, and Alysha was so amazing with her! I have no idea how she kept June calm and happy when she was generally a bit of a colicky baby. I think it really helps that she’s a mom herself, I watched her sooth my daughter right to sleep so she could get some photos of her sleeping. (I actually took some of her soothing methods home with me as a new mom and used them to get my baby to sleep at home lol) So awesome. We took our daughter back to get her 1 year old pics done and cake smash and couldn’t be happier with them. They’re so precious, we will enjoy them for a lifetime. Alysha is genuinely talented in capturing special moments with your family and the cherry on top is that she’s so friendly! We love her. We will be clients for life!

We love having Alysha photograph our family! She has been photographing all our families memorable moments for the past 5 years. She has done our maternity, newborn, Christmas and family photos and each time is an amazing experience. She always comes with fun ideas on how to get the perfect photos and she always makes you feel comfortable in front of a camera. My son can be so serious when it comes to photos but she always gets him to crack a smile. She helped choose a location for our family photos and gave great advice on how to coordinate our clothing. The photos always turn out great and are delivered quickly. My son loves to sit down and look through all the photos we have had done. They are an amazing memory to have and we are so thankful to Alysha for capturing so many great family photos for us!

We love Alysha!!
We have updated pictures taken every year for Christmas as well as my daughter's first year. Maternity, Newborn and First Birthday. The quality of pictures is amazing and she is very fun to work with. Can't wait to use her again.
- The Forsens

We absolutely LOVE working with Alysha! She took our family photos this summer in the lower mainland in the cutest location that we would have never even known about. It was a family mini-session and we had no idea what to expect, and let me tell you... the photos that came out of this were worth so much to us. I can't believe the quality that came out of this family photo mini session! Even though Alysha is located in Peachland (Okanagan BC) she came down to the lower mainland to do this photoshoot for us and a few other families. Whether you're in the lower mainland or Okanagan, you should definitely contact her for your family photos! - Brittany
