The Studio
Welcome to my NEW studio space!!
I am so excited to be offering studio space for sessions to better serve my amazing clients! Having the studio space allows us to do setups for things like cake smashes or stylized sessions, it also means we don't have to rely on the weather! Studio's are also great for encouraging cuddles during sessions, and no need for jackets or even SOCKS! Nothing affects the results of photographing children more than weather that makes them uncomfortable! The studio is always warm, bright, and clean.
Please see the details for my life studio sessions and prices by clicking here or empowerment/boudoir sessions here.
This page holds all the resources you need to answer your studio related questions! Please feel free to contact me if you have any other questions.
"Selina was absolutely amazing! She made us feel so at ease and so natural! We never really had family photos done and we are so awkward in pictures we had no idea what we were doing. Selina positioned us perfectly and made the entire session a breeze! She was so friendly and personable!"

FAQ's
Where is your studio located?
A: In Vernon, across from The Bay side of Village Green Shopping Centre. It is the first business upstairs at 2810 48th Avenue, beside Valhalla Pure Outfitters. Privacy is important to me, and because of this, I have privacy film over all of the windows.
What are your Covid-19 precautions?
A: Covid-19 protocols in my studio is very important to me. I make sure to sanitize my equipment and myself before and after each session. In my studio, I have limited the things in the space to make it easier to keep cleaned and sanitized. I choose mostly hard materials for high touch surfaces for easy sanitation between sessions. Any sessions that use soft surfaces like the bed, are booked on different days in order to properly wash all of the touched surfaces.
Studio sessions are also booked far enough apart to ensure thorough sanitizing.
Is your studio handicap accessible?
A: I have 20 steps up to the second floor of my business, with double hand railings the whole way up, but there is also a stairlift at the back entry door.
Is your studio animal friendly?
A: Because the space is new to me and newly renovated, for now there is a no pet policy.
Do I have to sign a photo release?
A: No. Signing a photo release is optional, and signing it is greatly appreciated. See a copy of the Photo Release here
Does your studio have a washroom?
A: Yes! There is a client bathroom at the studio, and there is also a client change area set up in the studio.
What are your prices and packages?
A: You can do a 30 or 60 minute package in my studio. You can see the details of all of these packages by clicking here
What is the parking situation at the studio?
A: My building faces the mall parking lot and that's where I ask my clients to park, walk across the intersection of 48th Ave and 29th Street, to my front door.
Do you have sets to choose from?
A: Yes! In the studio photos above you can see the two different couch setups I have for the white couch sessions, and you can also get rid of the couches all together and get cuddly on the floor, or on the bed.
I also have backdrops, blank wall set-ups, and a ton of huge windows for natural back lit photos. There's no lack of space to accomplish multiple different feelings in the photos, in a short period of time.
For cake smashes you will need to supply your own setup, and I will provide the clean, bright studio space to do it!
What do I wear to a studio session?
A: The same things that you would wear to an outdoor session. I think bare feet look naturally beautiful but if you'd rather have shoes on, then I just ask you bring clean shoes to change into once you arrive because I have white rugs in the studio.
How many people can I include in a studio session?
A: My studio can comfortble do families up to 10 or 12, larger groups I can do in sections, we just need to discuss that during the booking process.
Can I see a copy of the contract?
A: Yes! You can see a copy of the Contract of Services here.
