Sweetheart | Montreal Newborn Photographer | Photographe de Nouveaux- Né à Montréal

I might have mentioned this already, but I've been waiting for baby Carolyn since January 2013. Practically at the same time as Mom & Dad (lol).

I had everything planned (in my mind of course, because anything baby rarely goes according to plan), I got a few new props and knew exactly what mom wanted from the session.
Well.... unfortunately I hadn't anticipated that the little basket on the bicycle was not easy to place.
But, Grandpa saved the day. While we worked on getting Carolyn's pictures in different poses and props, he sat quietly putting everything together for his teeny little grand-daughter and this was the  result.
And boy, oh boy were we glad!!!!

It turned out to all be just perfect. :)

Taylor, she is beautiful. 'You guys make beautiful babies!!' :) lol

Mini Family Sessions | Montreal Family Photographer | Photographe de Famille à Montréal



Click on picture to enlarge.

I will be doing mini sessions on the Sat-Sund 27th & 28th of July, 2013. I am taking 3 families per day for a (up to) 45 min per session.

These sessions will be done outdoors, in the location of my choice (on the island of Montreal). Should it rain on those days (one or both), the sessions will be moved to the weekend after and time slots will stay the same.



You should know before booking:

Why I am offering mini sessions: Aside form the fact that mini Sessions outdoors with the family are fun and you'll have those great memories forever, I am offering these mini sessions to the families who would like to update their family photo album and to those who would like to see what I have to offer. Also, since many have a budget and don't necessarily want to spend lots on custom photography, these sessions are at a lower price than what I offer in my custom photography packages. Mini sessions are half the time of my regular sessions and so they are fast paced. 

Family of 4: Up to 4 people of the same family can take part in these mini sessions. Extra persons will be charged 25$/person. Since I do mostly custom newborn photography sessions in studio I ask for all children/ babies to be over 3 months.

What you get: Each 45 min session comes with a mini gallery to view of 10 to 15 fully edited pictures in both color and Black & White.
You will also choose a final 5 pictures that will then be transferred on a CD for you to print as you wish for friends and family.

CD: You will get a CD which will include 2 files. Each file will have the 5 pictures of your choice. One file will have them all in 8x10's at their full resolution to print (in 8x10 or smaller) as many times as you'd like for friends and family. The other file will have the same pictures in low res with my watermark for you to post online (Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, etc.). People do steal pictures online and so it would be very much appreciated if you post the ones dedicated for the web. 

Extras: Prints, digital files, albums, mini albums and more are offered on my 'A la Carte' pricing. You can ask to see my full price list . To view samples, you can schedule some time with me in studio when your pictures are ready.

Props: I will bring a minimal amount of props outdoors such as a blanket and a wooden box to sit on. If you would like to bring anything specific, that's no problem, just please make sure to discuss with me prior to your photo session.

What to wear: I will elaborate on this with you once you book this promotion for you and your family.

How to pose: I will be guiding you throughout the session and giving you tips on how to pose, etc. for a great result. But don't forget, this is a session to show your personality. Enjoy the session and don't stress out about it. I will let you have fun and capture those moments you don't necessarily pay attention too. We'll just pretend I'm not there !! :) 

Payment & Cancellation: Half your payment will have to be done at least one week before your mini session. Should you not be able to make it last minute to your time slot for whatever reason, a credit at Stephanie Chriqui Photo will be given to you for the 'A la Carte' pricing. Unfortunately this specific promotion will no longer be valid unless you wait to use it on another upcoming promotion. Your credit will have no time limit and cannot be transferred to someone else.

Price: 350$ (value 750$)


Time slots: 
Saturday July 27th, 2013
- 8:30   am
- 9:45   am
- 5:30   pm


Sunday July 28th, 2013

- 11: 30 am BOOKED

Times will have to be respected. Should you be late for any reason, this will affect the time you have for your session.

Family Time | Montreal Children Photographer | Photographe pour Enfant à Montréal

Kosta, Alexandra and I go back a few years. We've been working together on a few projects with their store on Parc ave., Cadeaux Kelly Green.

Not only do they manage an amazing baby store but Alexandra and Kosta are the proud parents of these two little devils!! :) Just kidding!
They were super sweet and pretty much followed my lead on everything (or almost). Actually I followed there's...
Either way, the family came out on a really hot day last week for a little photo session with me which included some good laughs, a few cries and many awesome moments!
I loved the park we went to except I ended up with 8 mosquito bites. :s Totally worth it though.

Thank you to the both of you for choosing me to photograph your family :)

And if you want to meet the two of them and get some amazing advice and service for your baby needs, then you should check out the store on Parc ave. and the new and bigger location opening soon in the West I
sland.

Sofia | Montreal Newborn Photographer | Photographe de Nouveaux- Né à Montréal

Sofia!! Officially my new favorite name !! :)
And officially the smallest baby I've photographed so far at 5.14 lbs.

Sofia is gorgeous and I totally enjoyed photographing her. Plus Mom got to bring this beautiful lilac headband to the studio which I loved and was super happy to use in her pictures. I think it worked beautifully.

And a little secret between us ... from the looks of it Sofia's totally going to be Daddy's little girl. ;) So cute!!

36 WEEKS | Montreal Maternity Photographer | Photographe de Maternité à Montréal

Catherine & Donato found me on Facebook through some friends and decided they had to get their maternity session done in studio with me.

I am super glad they came by and I'm even more excited to photograph their little one.... this week probably (crossing my fingers).
Catherine was glowing during her session and she really showed the shy moms-to-be how you don't have to bare your belly to get great pictures during your maternity session.

What a cute couple!!
I think that black and white pic is my favorite. Love !!!!
