In North York, new parents are the ones searching most. We photograph newborns and babies with patience and care, and families and couples in the ravines and gardens close to home.

North York sessions

Gentle Sessions for North York Families

A newborn session should fit around your baby, not the other way around. We keep things warm, quiet and unhurried, pause for feeds whenever needed and include parents and siblings in the frame.

As your baby grows, North York’s parks make easy backdrops for milestone and family photos: a sitting-up session among autumn leaves, a first-birthday walk in the gardens, or a big family portrait with the grandparents.

Photo Spots in North York

Edwards Gardens

Perennials and roses on the upper lawns, with wildflowers, rhododendrons and a large rockery down in the valley. The Toronto Botanical Garden sits beside it.

Earl Bales Park

A ravine park along the West Don River with trails through a tall deciduous forest that turns warm colours in autumn, plus open lawns and a band stage.

Downsview Park

A large park with an urban forest, tallgrass prairie, ponds and an orchard, giving very different looks within a short walk.

Hours, access and rules for photography can change, so please check with the City of Toronto or the park operator before your session. We are happy to help you choose a spot when we plan.

Questions

Photography in North York: FAQ

Where are some good places to take pictures in North York?

Edwards Gardens, Earl Bales Park and Downsview Park are three favourites, from formal gardens to forest trails and tallgrass prairie. For newborns, your own home is often the most comfortable spot of all. Check with the City of Toronto or the park operator about any rules before your session.

What time of day is best for outdoor photos?

Soft morning light and the late afternoon are best, and the tree cover in the ravine parks gives shade even at midday. With babies we also plan around naps and feeds, which matters more than the sun.
