Our Vancouver Photography Studio is Next to Little Treasures (but not their store on Broadway)

We often get emails and phone calls wondering where we are located... well, we are on Granville Island, inside the Kids Market on the second floor. To be really specific, we are next to Little Treasures (this used to be the location of Everything Wet). Please note that Little Treasures also have a store on Broadway... we are located next to their Kids Market location.

A little bit about our neighbour, they have wonderful things for little ones and for moms. Little Treasures is full of adorable shoes, clothing, and accessories for little and older children. There is even stuff for moms! Even before the little one arrives, you can select stylish Kecci Diaper Bags, strollers by Maclearen and Quinny, and stroller accessories. For protection from the rain and sun, they offer Lettucebee and Kidorable rain suits, and O'Neill, No Zone, and Dolphin sun suits.

Newsletter re: Christmas package deadlines, home sessions, and Rainbow Rewards to go out soon


I've been working on our newsletter and hope to get it out soon! We've been working on the new backgrounds, getting them posted on our website etc... The newsletter will announce our Christmas deadline (Nov. 30th), home sessions, and Rainbow Rewards Program.

All the Kids Market merchants have got together to support the Rainbow Rewards Program for our mutual customers so for every $100 spent (before taxes), you get $5 back in a form of a gift certificate to spend at any of the stores here! It has been great having our photo studio at the Kids Market on Granville Island... it really is a neat place and wonderful community.

Holiday Backgrounds for Children & Baby Portraits


I can't believe it is already October! This nice weather makes it harder to think about Christmas and the Holiday season but I did go buy some hats, scarves, and mitts from the local baby and children's store in Vancouver.

I also picked up some fake snow for our new winter & Christmas portrait backgrounds... I can't wait to get creative with all the new props for our baby and children photography!

Here's a sneak peek of one of our new backgrounds... it'll make a great picture.
