FALL IS A MAGICAL TIME OF THE YEAR
You deserve beautiful photos of your children and fur-babies. AND you deserve to be in the photos. During Fall mini sessions, I preserve those tender moments between child and mom and dad.
Believe me when I say, they grow up way to fast and you will find yourself wishing you had photos taken.
This year, Fall Mini Sessions will be held at Grey Sauble Conservation Authority Arboretem. Just down the road from Inglis Falls. The Address is 237897 Inglis Falls Rd, Owen Sound, ON N4K 5N6
Families, including chlidren feel comfortable and at ease with me. I help you pose (when needed), and then let you interact with each other so that we get those authentic moments.

When We Have Each Other, We Have EVERYTHING
You’ve Got Questions? I’ve Got Answers 😉
Will 15min be enough time?
You Betcha! I am gifted at getting lots of different shots, angles, expressions, etc. To do this, I have a few go to poses and then get lots of the ‘in-between moments’ that make you smile and heart pound. Plus, I have lots of tricks up my sleeve to get those authentic smiles from even the shy children. I was once extremely shy and understand working a shy youngster.
At the same time, I enlighten parents that I am capturing all moments, whether this includes smiles or tears, they all warm our hearts.
Also, please come already dressed, ate, and ready for photos. Hehehe this helps all of us to be on schedule.
When should we arrive? And where do we meet you?
I ask that families arrive at least 5 minutes earlier and wait at the Picnic Shelter. Most likely, I will be with another family but will come meet you at the time your session starts.
What happens if we are late?
Because this is a mini session event, I will have back to back sessions :). Thus, I ask that you try your hardest not to be late ;). If you do end up running behind schedule, we simple still have your session at the alloted time, but we just photograph during the remaining time that is left.
What are digital files (also called digital images)? And what’s the difference between web-sized digital files and high resolution digital files?
A digital file/image is an electronic version of a physical print. It allows you to store and see your photo on your computer, phone, iPad, etc. It is NOT a physical print thought. You can get different sizes of digital files; web-sized (low resolution) or printing (high resolution) digital files.
Web-sized digital files – these are perfect if you’re only wanting to share your photos on social media or keep them on your computer/phone. These CANNOT be printed as they are too small. They look great on your computer/phone BUT if you try printing them they will not look good. Most often, they will look ‘dotty’ or blurry.
High Resolution (printing) digital files – these are really big files. They are perfect if you want to do your own printing; at anytime and anyplace. You get full control of when and where you want to print your photos. You do not have to print thru Candra Schank Photography. Please do not take them to Walmart though. More times than not, your photos will not look the same as what you see on your computer. This is directly related to their printing system. I recommend Foto Art in Owen Sound. They have great customer service and great print products.
I am concerned about our wardrobe, what should we wear?
I want everyone to feel comfortable and relaxed in their own skin. Thus I tell families to dress in cloths that feel good. Hehe but try and stay in the same colour tones…you don’t have to be matchy-mathchy. I also recommend avoiding bold & bright patterns & colours. These tend to be very distracting.
To help you prepare and plan your wardrobe, I send you an email with some hints and tips.
My kids won’t sit still.
Hehe, almost kids run around for 90% of the session. And that’s fine with me. I love to take candid photos of them playing.
I also have plenty of tricks up my sleeve to get kids to sit still…and then I get my shot.
How long does it take you to edit the images?
I know you’re excited to see your photos. Thus I work hard to get you your photos quickly. After your session, about 3 weeks later, you will receive an email with a link to your online gallery.
Do I get a USB with all my photos?
I used to give USBs to my families. BUT, I found that sometimes the USB was corrupted or lost. Thus, now All photos are delivered to you in an online gallery. You then download them to your computer and/or phone. I recommend downloading them to multiple devices for safe keeping. You are also free to send your photo gallery to family and friends. Hehehe, I bet they will be excited to see them too. Galleries are only active for 30 days and then they are deleted off my network. If you would like a USB, they can be purchased for $50…and they come engraved 🙂
Do I have to buy prints & albums through you?
Nope! I completely understand that families want the digital files so that they can share them with friends & family AND get them printed wherever & whenever they want.
Hehe, but I also provide families access to my personal Print House so that they can order beautiful professional prints, wall art and albums for their home. This is an optional service and you are under no obligation to buy from me. Families simply wait for their online gallery and order from the comfort of their home.

Products
You’re wanting to fill your home with portraits from you session. Yah-who. Choosing your favourite images & deciding how best to display them is a great experience.
I offer professional, high quality, ready to go products that you can start enjoying immediately. You don’t have to lift a finger…I do all the framing, mounting, and the finishing touches.
Below are the products that my families LOVE.
Click the option and have a look and start thinking about how you want to display your portraits. Individual wall art starts at $200.
Heirloom Photo Albums
When you’re interested in a Photo album, I photograph your pet playing, cuddling, scratching ears, that adorable head tilt, and much more. Thus, all the images from your photo session are lovingly crafted into a beautiful high quality photo album that truly tells the story of your pet.
Album pages are beautifully thick (oh la la) and images are professionally printed
on fine art, lustre archival paper, rated to 75 years. These albums are a show-stopper piece of art – that is all about your pet
Heirloom Albums are priced from $350+
Bamboo Folio Heirloom Boxes
Family Favourite! This is a beautiful heirloom wooden bamboo box. It contains 10-20 matted 5×7 prints. You can choose to frame these yourself, keep some in the keepsake box, and/or display them in the matching wooden photos stand. You can also upgrade the box from Bamboo to Timber Wood and add hand-torm edges to your photos.
Folio Boxes start at $800
Framed Canvas Wall Art
Yes, you read it right. They are framed! I love the polished and finished look of a
framed canvas. And I want you to have them too. Framed canvases are versatile
and look great in every home. All canvases are laminated to reduce fading.
Canvas Wall Art is priced from $200
Framed Print Wall Art
Okay, this is my favourite…and my clients’ favourite. Whether you’re looking for a modern or traditional feel, framed wall art easily achieves that. Simply by changing the colour or style of frame will complete the look you are going for. Personally, I think a simple white frame looks good anywhere, but I also offer black,grey, brown, and many more looks and styles.
Portraits are printed on fine art paper, mounted, laminated and presented behind
acrylic with a dust backing to seal the wall art. Instead of glass, I use acrylic as it’s light and won’t shatter. This is important in homes with active dogs, cats or even children as wall art can sometimes be knocked off the wall 😉
Framed Wall Art is priced from $200
Fine Art MOUNTED OR Matted Prints
If you’re looking for individual prints, I offer luxury professional print packages. All prints are mounted on styrene (or matted) for a professional look and laminated so they don’t fade.
Fine Art prints are sold individually.
Prices start from $65.
