Mini-sessions are now open!
WHAT ARE MINI SESSIONS?
Mini Sessions are shorter sessions designed to capture a handful of beautiful professional photographs of your children and family. They are a great opportunity to enjoy the professional photography experience without necessarily investing in a full family session. My goal is to make them fun and creative so that you are able to take away some gorgeous uniques photographs that you will NOT be able to capture anywhere else.
HOW DO THEY WORK?
Mini Sessions are held on a specific date and sessions run back to back. You reserve your time slot by booking through the link below.
WHAT’S INCLUDED?
Mini Session Packages include a 5-10 minute family session PLUS the designated number of high resolution digital files (photos) of your choosing. I edit the best photos from your session and provide you with an online gallery to choose the photos you want to download.
Upgrade options
If you decide that you love all your photos, you can choose to upgrade your package to include ALL THE DIGITAL FILES from your session for an additional fee. Promotional discounts are applied when upgrades are purchased before your photo session. All upgrades are optional and the booking website will show you the available upgrade options. Once clients have chosen their photos (and paid in full for any upgrades), photos will be provided in digital format in an online gallery for clients to download.
who is included?
Each immediate family book their own time slot. If you wish to include grandparents or wish for a group picture of the cousins, each immediate family book the time slots right after each other. I can send a different invoice if you made additional requests. Images will not be released until paid.
prices?
All sessions start at $175, with a guaranteed delivery within 2 weeks. Upgrades include a rush order or a full gallery at an additional price.
Sessions AFTER Thanksgiving start at $400, and already includes the rush-fee to be delivered within 1 week.
When will I see the photos?
About 2 weeks after your session, clients are provided with a private gallery at which point they can choose their 5 favorite photos to keep from their session.
retouching?
Because I want to deliver these images to the clients ASAP, the only retouching I do are
1. cropping,
2. saturating the colors,
3. and straightening the frame.
Expiration date
Online Galleries will be available for 2 weeks ONLY, so please make sure to download your chosen images within receipt of your private gallery. A re-accessing fee will apply if galleries need to be re-uploaded for you to download.
Be sure to view the whole gallery before making your downloads as their are no returns on digital files.
LOCATION
Sessions are marked with the town the photo sessions will take place. Once the non-refundable fee payment processed and completed, the exact address will be sent to the email address used to book the session.
THE FINE PRINT
Mini Session retainers are NON Refundable. Once you select your time & date and you have paid for your time slot, you have officially booked your session. If you end up having a conflict with your date, I can try to move you to another date ONLY IF there are spots available. This can happen NO later than THREE DAYS prior to your session.
*** MINI SESSION RETAINER FEES ARE NON REFUNDABLE *** NO EXCEPTIONS ***
After you have booked your session, a confirmation email will be sent to you with additional details within 48 hours.
Mini Sessions can NOT be exchange for any other mini session (eg, you can not exchange your holiday mini session for a spring mini session) or full prices session.
If you show up on time, you are late.
Please allow extra time for getting the baby out of the car seat, hanging up your coats, quick check in the mirror, etc. If you are late to your session, I can NOT extend your session time. Sessions run back to back, and therefore your session will be cut short by the amount of time you were late. If you are a no show, there are no refunds!
PETS
Unless otherwise noted, all sessions are held at a private property. I ask that you please leave your dogs at home.
Do you provide all the props?
I provide everything except your outfits! Client Closet is not available for mini sessions. All the props and fun things you see in all the photos are available for your session. There will be plenty of cool things for your kids to utilize for their photos!
Can I take photos on my cell phone during the session?
Short answer is NO. Cell phones are not permitted during your holiday session. Please do not have parents/grandparents come along and take cell phone photos in the background. They will be asked to leave.
RAIN DATES
Please make sure to read the full page when booking to check your designated Rain Date.
Rain Dates are the date the session will be moved to if the weather is not in our favor on the day of your session. There is no flexibility on this date. If you can not make the rain date, there is NO REFUND and NO alternate reschedule. Rain dates are usually the folowing day or the following weekend.
NO REFUNDS
All digital products and downloads are final. There are no exchange or return on digital files.
HOW DO I BOOK?
There are 3 sessions to choose from:
- Vintage Red Truck
- These fun holiday mini sessions are photographed with a vintage red truck.
- The bed of the truck will be decorated in Christmas decor.
- Sessions included family, sibling and individual children photos.
- Great for all ages, babies to adults.
- Mini-minimalist
- Best for littles who are not ready to meet Santa yet or those older kids who are ‘so over’ the magic
- The Santa Experience
- Best for littles who believe in the magic and want a 1:1 session with the man in the red suit
- We start off the session without Santa first, and, if little one looks ready, we bring Santa out. If that turned out to be a bad idea, Santa knows to fly off in his sleigh.
