As a first time mom, leaving the house with a 10 day old newborn can be overwhelming. The second we walked into Kellys studio I felt completely relaxed and at home. Kelly has the magic touch and is so calming. She was so gentle and every pose was very thought out. The studio is absolutely beautiful, cozy and has everything you need. You can lounge on the couch, watch Netflix while she takes care of everything- It felt like a mini vacation for a tired mama.The photos are absolutely stunning, she has numerous fabrics, outfits, vintage props. I would highly recommend Kelly- do not look any further!!!!!

Kelly is an amazing photographer! My husband and I got photos taken of our baby and we we’re so happy with the pictures. They really are so beautiful and we get compliments all the time on the baby announcements. Kelly was so good working with the baby and keeping her happy during the photo shoot. The photos take a long time but it doesn’t even feel like a long time because Kelly provides a nice area to lounge in and yummy food. Then she handles the baby so it really was a nice break for us after the last few nights taking care of the newborn. We enjoyed it so much I was already talking about going back for the next baby when we left the studio.

Kelly was incredibly accommodating for our newborn photo session as we were nearing the end of our window at 15 days - We were so happy to be able to have these photos as they are a snapshot in time as our little one has grown so fast! She has an impeccable eye and no detail goes un-noticed when she photographs. I also appreciated the extra patience she had with our less than cooperative beagle - the whole experience in her studio was very pleasant and relaxing and we never felt rushed. She is also a baby-whisperer and I felt very comfortable having my little one in her care even though we had just met. She's honestly given me the best advice for how to calm a newborn (better than any new-mom book)! In addition to being very personable, she is also very professional. Overall I highly recommend!!

We went to Kelly to get pictures of our firstborn son as he was only a few days old. Kelly provided us outstanding services and photos making our son looks so beautiful! This was truly a work of art. Her studio is conveniently located in Oakville downtown and maintained at an ideal temperature with all imaginable props and comforts. She did a great job caring for our son and keeping him in the ideal state to take gorgeous pictures. In short, if you have a newborn and you want to memorize these first few days for the rest of your life, Kelly should be your first and only stop :)

Kelly was such a pleasure to work with! We had her photograph our newborn son at 8 days old! She was so good with our little guy, she made him feel so comfortable he didn’t even make a sound the entire time we were at the studio! The photos were incredible…so much so, that we upgraded our digital package to include all the images because we couldn’t choose! She is incredibly talented and really considers her clients wishes!Thank you Kelly for capturing such amazing shots of our little man! We now have such a wonderful keepsake of him during the previous first few days!If you’ve just had a baby and are looking to have him/her photographed, look no further! You won’t be sorry!

Kelly Clancy is an absolute treasure! We were a bit skeptical to leave the house with our newborn...but I am so happy we did! Her studio is absolutely gorgeous and is fully stocked with hand made newborn outfits, her antique props and plethora of fabrics and wraps are gorgeous and one of a kind. You do not need to worry about any details!!! I’ve never seen such a beautifully stocked studio! We were instantly at ease the minute we met Kelly. She has such a calming presence...which was so welcomed. She handled our newborn with ease, and we relaxed the entire time. My husband even fell asleep! Kelly is an amazing professional newborn photographer that created memories to last a lifetime. She exceeded all of our expectations and took such good care of us too! We felt pampered and refreshed leaving her space. She is truly gifted and worth every penny. We will be hiring her again.

Kelly is amazing!! We brought our son to her studio when he was 11 days old for a newborn photography session. While I had a bit of first-time-mom nerves, I was put at ease as soon as we entered the studio--it is so calm and cozy, and Kelly was magic with our baby! She was so gentle with him and gave us many opportunities for feeds, changes and snuggles. Kelly made us all very comfortable throughout the entire session--I couldn't believe that our baby didn't cry or fuss once, just slept the whole time! It was a very special day and I'm so happy we worked with Kelly to capture these first moments with our newborn. Highly recommend!!!

You can stop looking for a newborn photographer now!! Our experience with Kelly was amazing! I highly recommend having her capture the special first days of your newborn’s life.She was able to fit us in last minute after our original photographer had an injury and she was very accommodating with booking our photo session. Her website is very easy to navigate and Kelly was very prompt in responding to our emails and questions.Our session was stress-free and felt like a special outing for tired new parents! We trusted Kelly with our daughter and it was amazing watching Kelly select wraps and props. We could really tell that she loves what she does and creates a unique “look” for each baby she photographs. My husband and I felt pampered at her heated studio too. We lounged on a comfy couch while enjoying coffee and tea, wraps for lunch, scones and fruit!Kelly went above and beyond to create photos that we would love. She captured shots that we requested and even came up with a shot that required her to purchase digital art after our session, enlarge and print the large back drop and then superimpose our baby’s photo in order to create the effect she desired. The result was an absolutely stunning photo! We cannot believe how much work and passion she puts into her photographs.Kelly was so speedy with preparing our photos too. I had friends who waited months for their photos, but Kelly has ours ready in a few weeks, even despite a scheduled work trip during that time (not sure how she does that as a mom of 4!). The photos were printed on professional paper and were presented beautifully in a box. We gave several to family members and they are truly treasured.Thank you, Kelly, for capturing those precious first moments in such a unique way. We are so grateful! ❤️

Kelly beautifully captured our daughter 5 years ago so when we welcomed twins to the family this year we were happy to call on her again. Kelly is professional and amazing with babies! The studio environment is soothing for newborns and relaxing for parents. The entire experience from the photo shoot to delivery of proofs and final prints is worth it. I would recommend Kelly to anyone who wants their brand new baby (or babies!) photographed.

We had a newborn session gifted to us with Kelly, and we are so grateful we did. She was magic with our little girl, and her eye for knowing what will make beautiful photos is one-of-a-kind. Kelly was lovely to work with and went above and beyond for our images. We are incredibly grateful to her and will treasure the images of our little one forever.
