Maternity Magic at Guild Park: The Perfect Toronto Location for a Dreamy Pregnancy Photoshoot
Expecting a little one this year? Spring and summer are the best seasons to capture this beautiful chapter of your life—and if you’re in the Toronto area, Guild Park and Gardens in Scarborough is the dreamiest backdrop for your maternity photoshoot.
At Jo Anto Photography, we’ve recently had the joy of photographing two stunning maternity sessions at Guild Park, and the results were magical. Let’s explore why this location might be the perfect fit for your maternity shoot and how you can plan a session that truly celebrates your journey into motherhood.
Why Choose Guild Park for Your Maternity Photoshoot?
1. A Blend of Nature and Art
Guild Park offers a one-of-a-kind setting with lush gardens, forested trails, and heritage architecture. The beautifully preserved stone ruins add a romantic, timeless quality to your photos, while the vibrant greenery and lake views bring a fresh, natural vibe.
2. Ideal Lighting and Vibe for Spring & Summer
The longer daylight hours, blooming flowers, and soft golden hour light during spring and summer create a magical atmosphere—perfect for highlighting your baby bump and glowing skin.
3. Easy Access and Versatile Spots
Whether you want a soft and serene look near the lake or something more regal with the stone columns and historic sculptures, Guild Park offers diverse backdrops all in one location—without needing to drive all over the city.
What to Expect from a Guild Park Maternity Session
Our recent sessions at Guild Park featured flowing dresses, barefoot moments on the grass, and intimate couple shots under the trees. We guide you through gentle, flattering poses so you feel confident and relaxed, making sure to capture the love and anticipation in every frame.
Don’t worry if you feel camera shy—our sessions are designed to be fun, stress-free, and tailored to your comfort.
When to Book Your Maternity Session
The best time for a maternity shoot is between 28–34 weeks, when your bump is beautifully visible but you're still comfortable enough to move around easily.
Spring and early summer slots at Guild Park fill up quickly—especially on weekends—so we recommend booking your session at least 3–4 weeks in advance.
