Gill & Autumn | A Playful Studio Motherhood Mini-Session at Notion Studio in Bowmanville

There’s something really tender about this stage of motherhood—when your baby is still small enough to hold close, but curious enough to explore the world around them. Gill and Autumn’s studio motherhood mini session at Notion Studio in Bowmanville captured that balance so perfectly. It was simple and sweet—just the two of them, bathed in soft window light, playing, snuggling, and sharing those joyful little moments only a mama and her babe truly know.

Gill showed up in a soft pastel-striped dress that felt like spring in fabric form, and Autumn rocked the cutest little outfit. We kept things easy and fun—letting Autumn crawl, giggle, climb up on stools, and (of course) sneak in a few hugs and kisses with mom. The clean, minimal space at Notion was the perfect backdrop to let their connection shine. No distractions, no pressure. Just natural, honest moments—exactly how I love to photograph motherhood.

If you’ve been thinking about a simple, beautiful way to document your connection with your little one, a motherhood mini session might be just the thing. These short sessions are perfect for capturing this fleeting season—with all its snuggles, laughter, and love—whether you’re local to Bowmanville or looking for a motherhood photographer in the Durham Region.
