There is a quiet, powerful beauty in the journey to motherhood. As a Winnipeg Maternity Photographer, my goal is to capture your ‘glow’ in a way that feels both elegant and effortless. Whether this is your first child or you are adding another heart to your family, these portraits are a celebration of the incredible strength and love that defines this season of your life.
Dreamy Locations for Your Winnipeg Maternity Session
From the ethereal, golden light of Birds Hill Park to the architectural grace of the St. Boniface Cathedral, I help you choose a location that complements your style. Many of my moms-to-be love the serene beach vibes of Gimli at sunset or the intimate, natural feel of a session in Assiniboine Forest or Beaudry Park. If you prefer a controlled environment, my cozy Winnipeg studio offers a private, comfortable space for more intimate portraits.

When to Book Your Maternity Session
Timing is everything when capturing your journey. To ensure availability in my calendar, I recommend booking your Winnipeg maternity session during your second trimester or earlier.
The session itself should occur between 30 and 34 weeks. This is usually the ‘sweet spot’ where your bump is beautifully defined, but you are still comfortable enough to move around and explore local spots like Birds Hill Park. If you are expecting multiples, we may want to aim for the shoot to happen a little earlier, around 28–30 weeks, to ensure you’re feeling your absolute best.
The Maternity Wardrobe: What to Wear
You don’t need to worry about a thing. I advocate for outfits that celebrate your silhouette—think flowing maxi dresses, form-fitting knits, or soft neutrals that catch the Manitoba wind. Whether you want an elegant, editorial look or a relaxed, lifestyle feel in the Assiniboine Forest, we can discuss clothing options during our pre-session consultation call to help you choose textures and tones that look stunning in our natural prairie light.
The Maternity Portrait Investment
I believe in a straightforward, stress-free experience that lets you focus on the beauty of this season. My Winnipeg Maternity Sessions are an all-inclusive $399 for a 60-minute experience.
Your $399 Investment Includes:
- A 60-Minute Session: Plenty of time for an elegant, relaxed experience at locations like Birds Hill Park or the St. Boniface Cathedral, or my Winnipeg Studio.
- Planning & Styling: A pre-session consultation to discuss location and wardrobe, ensuring you feel confident and beautiful.
- Your Digital Gallery: A curated collection of professionally edited, high-resolution digital images delivered via a private online link within one week.
- A Tangible Legacy: While your session includes digital files, I believe your journey to motherhood deserves to be held in your hands. You have the exclusive opportunity to add handcrafted archival albums or museum-quality fine art prints—personally crafted by me to ensure your family’s beginning is preserved as a physical heirloom.
Winnipeg Maternity Photography FAQ
Q: Can my partner and other children be included in the session?
A: Absolutely! While the focus is on you and your bump, I love capturing the connection between you and your partner, as well as the excitement of soon-to-be big brothers or sisters.
Q: What if I’m feeling self-conscious or “unphotogenic” during my pregnancy?
A: This is the most common concern I hear! My job as a Winnipeg maternity photographer is to guide you into poses and angles that make you feel confident and beautiful. We’ll keep the session relaxed and moving so you never feel “stuck” in a pose.
Q: Do you offer a “Belly to Baby” package?
A: Yes! Many parents choose to bundle their maternity session with a Winnipeg Newborn Session. This ensures a consistent storytelling style from your pregnancy through to your baby’s first days at home.
Q:Do I need to pay extra for my digital images?
A: No. Your $399 maternity investment covers the session fee and your full, high-resolution digital gallery. There are no hidden costs or required minimum print orders—just beautiful, honest storytelling.
Q: Where in Winnipeg will our session take place?
A: There are many incredible options! Within the city, consider the classic beauty of Assiniboine Park and Forest, the wilder trails of Beaudry Park, or the dramatic ruins of the St. Boniface Cathedral. For locations outside of town, Gimli or Grand Beach offers beach sessions, Birds Hill Provincial Park provides that perfect prairie light, or even The Whiteshell for a rugged, Canadian Shield backdrop. If your family has a meaningful “happy place,” that is also a great option.
Q: How soon will we receive our gallery?
A: I know you’re excited to see your memories! Your full, professionally edited high-resolution gallery will be delivered via a private online link within a week.
Q: Do you offer physical prints or just digital files?
A: I am a full-service Winnipeg photographer, which means I believe your memories deserve to live on your walls, not just your hard drive. While every session includes high-resolution digital images, I also offer professional, handcrafted archival albums and museum-quality fine art prints. I personally oversee the printing process to ensure the colours and quality are perfect, providing you with heirloom pieces that will last for generations. You can easily order these directly through your private online gallery!
