I hear you loud and clear! If you’ve ever been a client of mine in the past, you know how many pictures we are capable of getting in 15 minutes! I make sure to cover ALL of the bases. From the picture perfect everyone smiling at the camera photo to individuals of the kids all the way to photos of just mom and dad, we get it all with time to spare! I promise you 15 minutes is more than enough time for everything!

I want a mini session, but I’m worried we won’t have enough time for all of the photos?

Even though we can get a lot of pictures in 15 minutes, it does not leave us enough time to allow for outfit changes. If you are interested in a session where you can wear multiple outfits, I recommend reaching out via my contact form and scheduling a full session!

CAN I PLAN FOR MULTIPLE OUTFITS?

As my schedule gets busier with weddings and engagements, I am using these mini sessions as a way to serve my family clients. Minis are great because they are quick- only 15 minutes- in my experience, most kids lose interest in the session after about 15-20 minutes. So minis help keep their attention! And also, the cost! My minis are usually $150-$200 cheaper than my full sessions, so if you are wanting family photos, but don’t want to commit to a $500 session, minis are perfect for you! 

WHY SHOULD I CHOOSE A MINI INSTEAD OF FULL SESSION?

Always always always you can bring your kids! Unless you want a mom and dad moment, (nothing at all wrong with that!) my mini sessions are made for families! As long as the location of the minis is dog friendly (I will tell you this when booking), your dog is welcome as well! Depending on how well behaved your dog is, I usually suggest bringing along a friend or someone to keep an eye on the dog when we aren’t actively taking photos with them. Due to the fast paced structure of mini sessions, I kindly ask that we limit the number of people to those only in the immediate family (mom, dad & kids). If you are wanting an extended family session with me, simply fill out my contact form and we can get that scheduled!

CAN I BRING MY KIDS/DOGS/EXTENDED FAMILY?

I require that a 50% non-refundable retainer be paid to secure your slot as well as a signed contract. The remaining 50% balance will be due the week of our session.

WHAT IS REQUIRED TO BOOK MY MINI SESSION?

I always try to host at least one mini session per season. The Fall and Holiday seasons are typically the most busy with more people wanting photo sessions for Holiday cards and gifts, so I typically host three to four mini session dates during that time.
