Fall is easily one of the most beautiful times of year for family photography in Burlington, Ontario — and this year, I'm opening a very limited number of Fall Mini Sessions at one of my favourite places to photograph. The Estate Collection. 🍂 A private Burlington photography location available exclusively to Fyvie Studios clients, The Estate Collection gives us everything I love for fall family photographs: mature trees, long grasses, open fields, a beautiful pond and plent

Christmas Minis are back — and this year's setup might be one of my favourites yet. 🎄** Fyvie Studios Fyvie Studios' 2026 Christmas Mini Sessions will take place on October 24th from 9:00am–2:00pm at the beautiful Dundas Loft, just a short drive from Burlington, Ontario. This year, I wanted to create something that felt a little different from the typical Christmas mini session. Warm. Elevated. Minimal. Timeless.

With a little guidance, you'll create timeless images that feel natural, beautifully coordinated, and unmistakably you. As a Burlington family photographer, one of the most common questions I receive is: "What should we wear for our fall family photos?" The answer is simpler than you might think. At Fyvie Studios,

If you’ve landed here while searching for a Burlington photographer, you may notice something a little different about my brand photos. Yes — there are the polished portraits. Yes — there’s the camera in hand. And yes… there’s also a horse standing beside me in an open field at golden hour. That image isn’t a marketing prop. It’s my story. Photography Started Long Before Fyvie Studios Long before Fyvie Studios officially launched in January 2020, photography quietly followed

Some sessions are about capturing a beautiful evening. Others are about holding onto a chapter of your life before it changes. For Olivia, this fall horse and rider session in Burlington was the latter. Olivia had made the incredibly difficult decision to sell her heart horse after realizing she had unfortunately outgrown him. Anyone who has loved a horse knows that they become so much more than the animal waiting for you at the barn. They carry you through seasons of your li

If there’s one thing I’ve learned from photographing families, it’s this: young children are wonderfully unpredictable. And I plan for exactly that. One of the most common concerns I hear from parents before a family session is some version of, “I just hope my kids cooperate.” Here’s the good news: I don’t actually need them to. My family sessions aren’t built around children standing perfectly still, looking at the camera and smiling on command. They’re designed around movem

Welcoming a new baby in the fall is pretty special—and you don't have to choose between newborn photographs and those beautiful outdoor family photos you've been imagining.

The warm colours, soft evening light, cozy textures and changing landscape create a beautiful backdrop for documenting those first weeks together. The key? Keeping baby warm, fed and comfortable.

Fall is one of my favourite times of year for family photography in Burlington. The warm colours, tall grasses, cozy layers and beautiful evening light create the perfect backdrop—but if you’re a parent, there’s probably another thought running through your mind: “What if my kids don’t cooperate?” Here’s the good news: they don’t need to. Some of my favourite family photographs happen when kids are running, exploring, laughing, cuddling their parents or doing something comple

There is something incredibly special about photographing motherhood in a place that already feels full of life. For this maternity session, we headed to All Who Wander Flower Farm in Dundas, Ontario, surrounded by rows of flowers, soft greenery and the beautiful natural textures that make this location such a dream for photography. The result was a gallery that felt romantic and organic while still keeping the focus exactly where it belonged—on this beautiful season of becom

Some branding sessions involve carefully styled products, headshots and perfectly organized workspaces. And some involve an entire litter of English Bulldog puppies running around a yoga studio. I think you can guess which kind of day this was. 🐾 I recently photographed a branding session at Yogatastic in Burlington, Ontario, featuring an adorable litter of English Bulldog puppies to help promote their puppy yoga experiences. The goal was to create a collection of profession

There is something about horses at Christmas that just works. 🎄 For this holiday horse and rider portrait session in Burlington, Ontario, we traded the traditional Christmas backdrop for something a little more dramatic — a beautiful white horse, classic western styling, a simple holiday wreath and a deep black background. The result was a collection of timeless horse and rider portraits with just enough Christmas added in. Christmas Horse Photography Without the Christmas C

There is something about family photography at Burlington Beach that makes it perfect for families who want their photographs to feel natural, connected and completely like them.

The result was a gallery filled with exactly what I want my family sessions to capture: con

Some photography sessions are planned months in advance. Others happen because suddenly, photographs can’t wait. On a Thursday, I received a message about Vyxzen. Vyxzen was receiving care at the stunning King Animal Hospital in King City, Ontario, and their future was uncertain. Their owner wanted photographs together — not someday when everything settled down, but now, while there was still an opportunity to document a relationship that meant so much. We spoke on Thursday a

There are some sessions where I know I'm photographing something much bigger than the moment in front of me — and this surprise engagement at The Estate Collection was one of them. When her boyfriend reached out to plan the proposal, he already knew how much this location meant to her. A field of tall grass, rolling hills and the quiet beauty of the horse paddock were exactly what she had envisioned as her dream setting. So, together, we planned how to make it happen — withou

As photographers, we're often the ones behind the camera documenting everyone else's adventures.
