With the warm weather showing up over the last couple days, is anyone else dreaming up gorgeous golden hour beach sessions? 🏝️

Last summer, I had the pleasure of capturing @pascaletheislander during the Inspired By Light Workshop in PEI hosted by @kristenborelli_photography. I’m excited to get to capture more moments like these for my local clients!

Beach sessions are a new offering this summer - will you be joining me? Let me know below! ⬇️

Last summer at Cavendish Beach, the sun was blazing, the waves were rolling, and this sweet family soaked up every second of it. Mid-morning light isn’t always forgiving, but with the right approach, it turns into something magical—glowy skin, salty breeze, and moments that feel straight out of a dream.

Who else is counting down to warm sand, bare feet, and more beach sessions this summer? Let’s make it happen. ☀️📸

No forced smiles, no sit-still expectations—just a mama letting her little one explore, while I document the magic of their world. These are the moments that matter most.

🌸 The Perfect Mother’s Day Gift—Because Mem

🌸 The Perfect Mother’s Day Gift—Because Memories Last Longer Than Flowers! 🌿

Forget the last-minute gifts—this year, give Mom (or Grandma!) something truly timeless. A Mother’s Day session on May 10 at All Who Wander Flower Farm is more than just photos; it’s a chance to slow down, soak in the beauty of motherhood, and create memories you’ll cherish forever.

✨ Perfect for:
🌷 Expecting moms celebrating maternity
🤍 Mommy & Me moments (because you deserve to be in the frame!)
👩‍👩‍👧 Generational sessions with Grandma, Mom & Little One
👨‍👩‍👧 Full family sessions (yes, Dad is welcome too!)

With dreamy backdrops like a French flower market-inspired greenhouse, a cozy potting session, apple orchard blossoms, and maybe even cherry blossoms, this is your chance to capture motherhood in the most idyllic setting.

🎁 Bonus: Each session includes a special gift bag featuring handpicked items from local women-owned small businesses (@brow_savvy, @tripleatallow , @footprintsdesigns & @weirdnorthcreative just to name a few) + a beautiful bouquet of flowers!

📅 Only 4 spots available! $465+hst. Secure yours before they’re gone!

🚨 What? Melissa Shearer Photography doesn’t do Easter Minis?! Yep, you read that right. But hear me out… 🐰✨

I do NOT offer quick, 10-minute Easter mini sessions, but that’s because I believe in something better—a full-length experience where the magic unfolds naturally.

When kids have time to explore, get comfortable, and truly connect with the animals, we capture genuine joy, curiosity, and wonder. No rush. No stress. Just real moments that feel as magical as they look. ✨

So, next year when you start thinking of booking an Easter mini… what if we made it even more special? 💛 Drop a 🐣 in the comments if you’d love a session that’s all about the experience!

Had to jump on this trend! 🤣

I asked ChatGPT to pretend it was my drunk bestie describing what it is that I do here at Melissa Shearer Photography!

Here’s what bestie had to say 🤗 do they know me or what!?

Have you asked ChatGPT to drunkenly tell you all about what YOU do?
