A Simplified Studio Experience

Heirloom Sessions are designed for families who want a refined, stress-free portrait experience and a small collection of beautifully finished images.

You’ll receive the same expert guidance, attention to detail, and timeless style Diamondview Photography is known for—just in a shorter, more focused session.

What’s Included

  • 30-45 minute studio session
  • 5 beautifully finished digital portraits
  • Matching professional prints for each selected image
  • Guided posing and styling support
  • Access to select pieces from the studio wardrobe

Why Families Choose a Studio Session

Choosing a studio session with an Ottawa family photographer offers a level of consistency, comfort, and simplicity that’s hard to replicate outdoors. With carefully controlled lighting, a calm environment, and a timeless aesthetic, your images won’t be affected by weather, season, or distractions.

For many families, this means a more relaxed experience—especially for young children—while still creating portraits that feel natural, connected, and beautifully refined.

Perfect For

  • Immediate Families
  • Maternity sessions
  • Children
  • Updated family portraits
  • Milestone moments
  • Parents who want a handful of meaningful images

Please Note

Heirloom Sessions are designed for immediate family only and are not suitable for newborn or extended family sessions.

If you’re looking for a more personalized, full-service experience—including professional hair & makeup and a larger gallery of images—our Custom Sessions may be the perfect fit.

A Thoughtful Approach to Portraits

At Diamondview Photography, every session is approached with intention. Rather than overwhelming you with dozens of images, Heirloom Sessions are designed to focus on a small collection of portraits that truly matter.

These are the images you’ll return to again and again—the ones that feel honest, connected, and reflective of this stage in your family’s story. Simple, timeless, and created to last.

We had an amazing experience with Emily! The whole process was seamless. The photo shoot was professional, fun and relaxed. Even our baby loved it! Emily was great with her. The pictures are absolutely beautiful and we will cherish them forever. I highly recommend Diamondview Photography. Thank you so much Emily! It was a pleasure working with you.
