What does the holiday set look like?

TBD! But based on previous years and the current moodboard, it’s going to be fantastic. I’ll be in touch when they release images of the decorated set.

Who are these sessions for?

Mini sessions are designed for groups of 6 or less. These can be single families, couples, maternity—let’s chat about what you’re envisioning. The session types that aren’t conducive to a mini structure are boudoir, multi-family, and newborns under 3 months. If you would like to do one of these shoots, or if you’d like more time added to your mini slot, contact me.

How is a mini different from a full session?

Minis are shorter shoots that work best with a more singular focus, e.g. a holiday card, pregnancy announcement, or milestone birthday. There is less variety in posing, number of backgrounds, and groupings, and it costs less than a full session. It takes advantage of a special location or a peak seasonal change and are only offered a couple times a year as my availability allows, while full sessions of 30 and 60 minutes come with a wider range of options, customizations, and flexibility.

What should I wear?

Let’s get fancy! Bring on the sparkles, the luxe knits, the dress shoes! Based on the inspiration for the concept, I think creams, forest green, navy, tans, and a pop of gold would be exquisite. Whatever you fancy, please limit clothing to 1 outfit per person as there is not enough time to change during a mini.

Can we bring pets?

The studio has allowed well behaved dogs in the past for $25. I should have more info on that later, the pet policy may have changed.

What if I’m running late?

Please account for extra time getting to the studio. I’ve incorporated a 5 minute time cushion between sessions that allows for a few extra minutes of make-up time, although I won’t be able to infringe on the next client’s shooting time.
