Mini Sessions

The format

A small window of time, opened a few times a year.

Mini sessions run on a handful of dates each season. One backdrop, one set of lights, a rhythm that keeps the day moving. Everything is prepared before you arrive.

Dates are limited on purpose. When a season opens, the calendar usually closes within a few days, and the next opening is months away.

These are perfect for holiday cards, a yearly portrait of the kids, updated headshots, or simply proof of who everyone was this year.

What's included

  • Full posing and expression direction from the first frame

What to wear

Think warm neutrals: cream, oatmeal, camel, soft clay, olive, deep brown. Fabrics that move: linen, knit, wool, cotton.

Choose one anchor piece, then build the rest of the family around it in the same family of tones. Coordinated, never matching.

Skip large logos, bright neon, and busy patterns. Bring layers if you would like a second look, and hand cream for anyone whose hands will be in frame.

A full guide arrives with your confirmation, and you are welcome to send photos of options beforehand.
