There is something incredibly special about sunrise at De La Salle Beach.

The beach is quiet. The water is calm. The light is soft, warm, and dreamy in a way that simply cannot be recreated later in the day. It feels peaceful, slow, and intentional — which is exactly why I am so excited to officially launch my new Morning Glow Mini Sessions this summer.

From mid-June through late September, I’ll be offering limited sunrise mini sessions at De La Salle Beach in Georgina for families, couples, maternity, and little ones who love natural, relaxed moments by the water.

This recent family session perfectly captured everything I love about sunrise photography. Barefoot in the sand, cuddled close together, soft neutral tones, sleepy smiles, and the most beautiful golden light wrapping around the entire scene. These are the kinds of images that feel timeless years from now.

Why Choose a Sunrise Session?

Many families are surprised when I suggest sunrise sessions — but they quickly become favourites.

Here’s why:

The Light Is Absolutely Beautiful

Sunrise offers the softest golden tones of the entire day. The light is flattering, creamy, and gentle on skin tones, creating those dreamy, emotional images everyone loves.

The Beach Is Quiet

Unlike sunset sessions during summer evenings, sunrise gives us space to move freely without crowds in the background. It creates a calm environment, especially for young children.

Kids Are Often Happier

Little ones are usually fresh, rested, and more cooperative earlier in the day. This makes sessions feel relaxed and natural instead of rushed or overstimulating.

It Feels Like a Summer Memory

There’s something nostalgic about being barefoot on the beach first thing in the morning. These sessions feel less posed and more like a genuine family experience together.

The goal is movement, comfort, and connection — not perfection.

Family Photographer in Georgina

As a Copperred Photography photographer, my approach is always focused on genuine emotion and storytelling. I want your session to feel natural and easy while documenting the little in-between moments you never want to forget.
