What families say
4.9from 8 reviews
“From start to finish, everything felt so comfortable, professional, and effortless. She has such a beautiful eye for detail and truly knows how to capture the perfect moments. I absolutely loved how the photos turned out, they were even better than I imagined.”
“We hired Laura for our child's kindergarten graduation photos, and the photographs completely exceeded our expectations. Laura is great with young kids. The entire experience felt fun and relaxed rather than forced, exactly what you want for a 5 year old.”
“Laura was the photographer I hired for my magazine, @416Mag, and many other ventures. Professional and delivered on time and on budget. I would hire her again without hesitation.”
FAQ
Good to know
What should we wear?
Red belongs here. Christmas red, burgundy and wine sit right in the set, and cream, winter white and deep green work just as well against the white couch. Skip busy pattern. Dress everyone in the same range rather than the same outfit.
Where is it?
Preto Loft, 213 Sterling Rd, Unit #212, in the Solarium. It is indoors, so the weather makes no difference. Directions come with your confirmation email.
What is Bordeaux Berry?
The holiday set in the Solarium this year: classic Christmas red layered with bordeaux, wine and berry against deep evergreen. A full tree in glossy and velvet ornaments, an oversized garland framing a white couch, and wrapped gifts in burgundy and berry around the room.
How does payment work?
The session is $275 plus HST, $310.75 in total. A $100 deposit by e-transfer to hello@laurarossi.ca is required to secure your booking. An invoice for the remaining $210.75 balance is sent separately and can be paid before or after your session.
Can we cancel or reschedule?
We're not able to cancel or move sessions, and the deposit is non-refundable. The day runs back to back, so a late gap rarely gets filled. Please book a time you're sure of.
Who can come?
Whoever you bring. The whole family, the grandparents, just the kids, or the two of you. The 20 minutes are yours to use. The first extended family member is on Laura, then $25 each after that.
When do we get the photos?
The full gallery arrives within 48 hours, and you choose your ten favourites from it rather than receiving a photographer's pick. Your edited selections are delivered within 5 business days, which leaves time for cards.
Is 20 minutes enough?
Yes, for a styled studio set. Minis are built around how long small children last.
What does the $275 include?
The studio, the styled Bordeaux Berry set, and ten edited images of your choice from the full gallery.
