Meet baby Benjamin, or as his parents call him, Benji. I had first photographed him while he was still in his mom’s belly just a month earlier. Life is marvellous.

Big brothers Clark and Ralph joined in for some photos too.

It was 2 weeks before Christmas and I couldn’t help but grab a shot of al the stockings.

Baby Maya // Toronto Baby Photography

Little Maya: she was so teeny tiny when I met her. There’s something really calming for me when I photograph a newborn/baby session. I don’t know what it is, maybe it’s the fact that they are pretty oblivious to what’s going on. Or maybe it’s just that I feel like time slows down a little for me when I spend a couple of hours with these little ones. As much as I love weddings, they can be quite hectic. Baby sessions on the other hand, are usually quite the opposite. They give me a chance to quietly go about my work. Though I guess I’m not the parents with a crying baby ;) And having gone through the requisite late nights and all-nighters in college, I know very well what sleep deprivation can do to someone. To be honest, that part of parenthood (at least early parenthood) is something I look forward to the least. In the meantime, I will remain the doting photographer. :)

This below is Boomer! He’s got such personality! Too bad my photos couldn’t quite capture that. Every time I pointed the camera at him, he’d pose.

He was absolutely posing in the below photo.

Baby Khyal

Baby Khyal was my first newborn shoot. He was just 10 days old for our photo session. So little, and so precious. I’m constantly amazed how much each baby’s personality is so readily apparent from the beginning. At just 10-days old, little Khyal wouldn’t sleep for us. And as these things go, after 3 hours of trying to coax him to sleep soundly, he slumbers off into dreamland after I left!

Here are some of my favourites. Enjoy!
