As a newborn and family photographer here in Calgary, I’m lucky to meet so many amazing families—each with their own unique style and story. One of the most common questions I get asked is, “Where did that little outfit come from?” So today, I’m sharing a few of my favourite local baby boutiques in Calgary, with a special spotlight on Austin’s Baby Boutique—a sweet shop I’m so excited to be collaborating with this season!

Why Shop Local for Baby Clothes and Gifts?

There’s something truly special about supporting local businesses, especially when it comes to finding thoughtful, high-quality pieces for your little ones. Many of the bestest baby boutiques in Calgary carry hand-picked, sustainable items you won’t find in big box stores. From ethically made clothing to handcrafted toys and keepsakes, these shops offer one-of-a-kind items perfect for gifts, milestone sessions, or just spoiling your own tiny humans.

Featured Boutique: Austin’s Baby Boutique

If you haven’t yet discovered Austin’s Baby Boutique, it’s time to treat yourself. This locally owned gem is filled with curated baby and toddler clothing, unique accessories, and giftable treasures for both parents and babes. I’ve loved getting to know the owner, Sabrina, whose passion for style, comfort, and quality shows in every piece on the rack.

Here’s why I love Austin’s Baby Boutique:

• They carry Canadian brands and ethically made baby goods.
• Their customer service is warm, welcoming, and helpful.
• Every outfit is stylish and photo-friendly—perfect for your next session.
• They carry unique items that you may not have considered.
