Change can be good | Cornwall & Ottawa Photographer
Is it just me…or did the summer fly by?!? I know its a saying that everyone mentions every year…but this summer felt different to me! The bonus is, I took the time to really enjoy the summer this year, even though it wizzed by…I did book less clients & NO weddings at all!! This little bit of space I created, gave me time to really consider how I want to move forward with this business!
I know, it’s seems like there is a yearly post saying “changes are being made” on social media & on the site…but running a business is all about going with the flow of change PLUS adjusting to the needs of clients! Lately, more of my clients have been focused on making memories in their homes instead of studio sessions. This change is one that I love!! Images of you & your family at home just connect different….it’s the place you spend time together, share meals, enjoy laughter & even wipe away some tears..so it just makes sense that you would want to have that space in your images!
The changes being made aren’t huge ones, they are small ones..
Newborn sessions: I will offering ONLY in home newborn sessions! In home sessions are wonderful for preventing parents from rushing out the door for a studio session…but it also makes the session more relaxed for young siblings, as they are in their safe space & can continue with their regular routine or nap schedules!
Family sessions: not much changes here, I still will be focusing on nature based sessions or in home based on my clients preference!
Maternity sessions: I have noticed, that a majority of maternity clients have been coming to the session prepared with their own outfits & have made choices that suit them best!! So, I will be discontinuing the use of dresses for maternity sessions.
Weddings: many clients & potential clients have noticed through the site the removal of wedding services! Weddings are a beast in so many ways, but also are such a blessing to photograph!! I share all the joy, the smiles, get a little teary during father/daughter or mother/son dances, cheer along as the bridal couple walks down the aisle…such an amazing day! This year, I have only booked two weddings & both are fall dates!! I will be opening bookings for 2025 (already have two) fingers crossed, I will be focusing on smaller, more intimate weddings…under 100 people seems to be my jam!! Availability will be VERY limited though!
Holiday Mini’s: these were not offered last year & they were GREATLY missed by both clients plus myself!! Plans are in the works for this year, hopefully a change in location & possibly offering sessions on two different weekends!! Keep an eye on the V.I.P List for all the details & booking link…these sessions are available for V.I.P’ers first & generally sell out quickly!!
See, not too many changes & nothing very drastic…but I do like to keep things clear & update everyone on changes! Thank you to all my clients & supporters…without you, there would be no More than a Moment Studios…I am forever grateful for you all!!
