Newborn & Maternity Photography Serving Mission, BC and the Fraser Valley

At Cheerful Moments Photography, we specialize in newborn, maternity, and family portraits from our studio at 32517 Dewdney Trunk Road in Mission, BC. We proudly serve families throughout the Fraser Valley, including  AbbotsfordChilliwackLangleyMaple RidgePitt Meadows, and Port Moody.

Every session is designed to feel relaxed and unhurried. For newborn sessions, we recommend booking while you’re still pregnant and photographing baby within the first 5–14 days, when they’re sleepiest and easiest to pose. For maternity sessions, the sweet spot is typically 28–34 weeks, when your bump is full but you’re still comfortable for a longer session.

Our studio is fully equipped with a curated wardrobe of gowns, wraps, and props, along with professional heating and safety equipment for newborn posing — so you don’t need to bring or buy anything extra. Whether you’re planning a first-time maternity shoot, welcoming a new baby, or want family portraits to mark this chapter, we’ll guide you through every step.

About the Photographer – Cecilia Benitez

Photography, for me, is about more than images it’s about preserving moments that matter. I believe the most powerful photographs are the ones that feel real, timeless, and full of emotion. Whether it’s a quiet glance, a burst of laughter, or a once-in-a-lifetime milestone, my goal is to capture your story exactly as it unfolds.

With a thoughtful eye for light, detail, and composition, I create images that are natural, elegant, and authentic. I strive to make every session relaxed and enjoyable, so you can be yourself while I focus on turning fleeting moments into lasting memories you’ll treasure for years to come.

I am based in Mission, BC, and I’ve had the privilege of photographing newborns and expecting families throughout the Fraser Valley, and I’d love to help you celebrate yours.
