I always strive to create classic and timeless images that my customers can put up on their walls to love and cherish forever. At the beginning of the Covid-19 Global Pandemic I had entered a contest called the "Creative Image Awards". Each image was carefully evaluated based on the following criteria; Technical Soundness, Creativity, Connection, Emotion & Story Telling, Post Production & Use of Editing, Techniques, Wow Factor & Overall Impact and Superior Photographic Tech

With the warm weather finally here, this is a perfect time to get outside for a summer family portrait session! I recently had the pleasure of photographing Ashley, Mervin and their two children in the east end of Toronto for some amazing sunset beach portraits. They have a gorgeous family – two good-lookin’ kiddos with fun and playful personalities - perfect for enjoying a beautiful, sunny evening on the beach. The kids collected colourful beach glass and practiced throwin

This adorable family of three came to see me for some outdoor family portraits just before Mothers Day. It was a perfect time to capture that one week while the flowering blossom trees were still in bloom. They don't always bloom the same week every year - its really dependant on the weather. We shot these portraits at a local park that is always beautifully landscaped with gorgeous manicured gardens. I always do family sessions at golden hour - just an hour before sunset, t

Baby Coal Xavier came to visit my photography studio for some family portraits at just 2 weeks old. He was absolutely beautiful and so calm. He was joined by his parents and both sets of grandparents for some family portraits. Of course the grandparents ohh'd and awwww'd over their new grandson - He is so adorable! I had photographed his parents for their maternity portraits a few months back - you might remember when I blogged about their winter, outdoor maternity portraits

I had the pleasure of photographing this sweet newborn boy at my Toronto photo studio when he was 14 days new. He was absolutely beautiful with the most gorgeous, full-head of hair. He loved being swaddled but I managed to get a few poses with his adorable baby rolls. His parents were so enamoured with him - but his grandmother, who was visiting from across the ocean, was just oozing with love! And he loved her right back - he even flashed us a BIG smile while his mom and

Welcome to the World, beautiful girl! It was so wonderful to finally meet you. It was such a treat to photograph this family again. I photographed this sweet couple a few months ago for their maternity session - complete with professional at my studio and then at their house in downtown Toronto once their baby girl arrived. Its always so exciting to finally meet the newest addition to the family. We even got some family photos with their bulldog Zoey! I just love their entir

Its Spring - That means time to start thinking about spending more time outdoors; going for a bike ride, planting those spring bulbs, celebrating the arrival of the cherry blossoms at High Park, and of course; start planning your outdoor family photoshoot! An outdoor family photoshoot is also the perfect gift for Mothers Day! My outdoor family portrait sessions are shot in a beautiful landscaped park in Toronto, which is the perfect backdrop to capture those adorable smil

I absolutely loved meeting this new family of three ! I had the pleasure of photographing this gorgeous family and their new baby girl at their Toronto home a few weeks ago. This little girl even had her grandparents come all the way from China to welcome her home. I'm always so excited to meet my clients and their new babies during their first few weeks of life. I remember how quickly those first few weeks pass by in a blur.... You will want to remember all those little de

I was so excited when this expecting mom contacted me for some maternity and newborn photos. We spoke on the phone during our consultation and she explained she wanted something unique for her maternity session: a winter photoshoot in the snow! I thought it was a wonderful idea, but at this point it was January in Toronto with no snow on the ground yet... so we waited until the perfect day. In the mean time we did a few in-studio maternity portraits with her husband and inclu

I love photographing children and their families. John and his family came to visit me at my studio to celebrate his first in style - with a classic white and blue cake smash session. Each session includes a cake smash, family portraits and a bubble bath for clean up. I like to refer to these as "Smash and Splash Sessions". You can see below just how much John loved his first taste of cake - eating with no hands - Super adorable. The first year of a child's life goes by incr

Baby Lisa came to see me at my studio for some newborn and family portraits when she was just 12 days new. She was so sweet and had the most gorgeous eye lashes. I used my 100mm macro lens to capture some those little details - baby feet and newborn eye lashes. Her parents choose peach and lavender for their colour theme and wanted some wall art for their nursery and living room. We also took some stunning family portraits with Lisa and her parents as well - each image is a

One week old Nylah melted my heart during our in studio newborn photo session. She was wide awake for most of our session but I managed to get her to sleep for some portraits. She was such sweet girl and I just love those little rolls! Below are some highlights from our session.... Pamela Yool Photography specializes in providing a full service photography experience that includes beautiful heirloom art products to display in your home as well as digital images for preserving

I've had a lot of families come from near and far to my studio for newborn portraits. Some have travelled a great distance to visit my newborn studio - I've had families travel from Kitchener, Chatham, Pickering and most recently from Florida, USA (my furthest family yet!) It's truly an honour to be hired as a newborn photographer and create those first family photographs for all to admire. Newborn and family portraits are my passion and I consider myself truly blessed to

Happy New Years, friends! Thank you for your amazing support in 2018. I wish you and your family a Happy New Year full of happiness, health and new adventures. Enjoy the little things in life because one day you’ll look back and realize they were really the big things. Looking back on this past year has been amazing - I’ve met so many beautiful people and was able to capture such wonderful memories and valuable moments for so many families. I have been trusted with photogr

What is a Little Sitter Milestone Session you might wonder? A Little Sitter session is a photo experience meant to document that milestone when your baby can sit up on their own independently - usually for babies between 6-9 months old. This is a really cute stage because they're full of giggles and real smiles. Parents often plan for newborn photos and first birthday portraits, but the phrase in between is often over looked. I think babies in diapers are super cute and sho
