Baby & Childhood Portraits

Fine Art Portraits Preserving The Wonder, Softness, and Fleeting Beauty of Childhood

Fine Art Baby & Childhood Portraits for Peterborough Families


Looking for a baby and children’s photographer in Peterborough? Love & Lace Photography creates timeless fine art portraits that celebrate childhood with elegance, emotion, and artistry.


Families from Peterborough choose Love & Lace for the refined experience, guided session process, and beautifully crafted portraits designed to preserve each stage of childhood.

Serving Peterborough Families


My studio is located within comfortable driving distance for Peterborough clients, offering a fully guided portrait experience from planning through final artwork.


Baby & Childhood sessions are available for families throughout Peterborough and surrounding communities including Lakefield, Hastings & Norwood.

Gentle Child-Led Sessions


Sessions are calm, un-rushed, and guided with patience and care.


Children are encouraged to move, explore, and simply be themselves. I offer gentle direction when needed, but never force interaction or expressions. Babies and children are met exactly where they are — curious, shy, energetic, thoughtful, or quiet.


There is no pressure for perfection. Only space for authenticity.

Simple, Thoughtful Styling


Clothing is kept simple and soft so the focus remains on your child.


You’ll receive guidance on colours, textures, and pieces that photograph beautifully and allow for movement. Neutral tones and natural fabrics help create artwork that feels timeless and cohesive.


Bare feet, curiosity, and comfort are always welcome.
