Holiday Mini Sessions
The holidays are my absolute favorite time of year. I love the crisp chill in the air. I love cozy sweaters and chai tea lattes. I love the anticipation and excitement leading up to the holidays. I have Christmas music blasting on my radio all day long. And one of my most favorite things about the holidays is received cards from friends and family.
I am here to help you get those perfect holiday cards and capture some wonderful holiday memories for you. Your kids won't always believe in the magic so don't hesitate to make sure you have it all documented!
This year I am offering the following types of sessions:
Twinkle Light Minis
Night Truck Minis
Simple Christmas Minis
These sessions are super quick with the main purpose of getting some great updated photos. Perfect for getting that holiday card photo too! These actually don't even need to be just for the holidays. Sessions are booked every 15 minutes back to back.
These sessions are only for families that know their kids can sit down and cooperate quickly for photos. If your kids don't warm up well to strangers, this isn't the session type for you. If you want lots of variety with combinations of family members or varying backdrops, this isn't the session for you. This only works if you want a quick shot of maybe the full family and maybe just the kids.

I will have the truck very simply decorated for Christmas. These sessions are super short and sweet. We’ll try to get some cute posed pictures on the truck and if there is any extra time, we can try to grab a few candid shots. These are perfect sessions for getting that cute holiday card picture!
These sessions are NOT just for the kids. Parents can hop in too. These sessions are for immediate families only (two parents/guardians and children). If you want to include cousins or grandparents, please contact me about booking multiple sessions.

I am offering a very simple set for these Christmas sessions at my studio in Chester Springs, PA. The set will include a small tree or two or a simple wreath on the wall. Feel free to add more holiday pop with the colors of your outfits or you can choose to keep it simple and neutral. If you aren’t celebrating Christmas or you don’t want Christmas themed photos, I can easily remove the props and we can just shoot your children and family with a simple white background for timeless photos.
Also, this way, you can use these photos all year long as they won’t have any holiday decor in them.
These Simple Christmas Sessions will take place in my studio in Chester Springs. I am offering them throughout the month of November. Ideal scheduling time would be midday during the week but other times are available including weeknights and weekends. Just email me back to schedule!

Booking will go live on Aug 15th at 9pm! The links above will go active at that time!
COMPLEMENT & COORDINATE BUT DON’T GET TOO MATCHY! Find a color palette that you love and choose outfits that complement each other without looking too matchy-matchy. We want everyone to look unique and portray their individual style. Opt for neutrals with a few pops of color or a softer palette that has different ranges in tone of the same shades. And lucky you - I provide access to an online styling assistant to help you plan your outfits!
So I will do my best to make your child feel happy and comfortable. But mini sessions are a very short amount of time. If you know your child doesn't warm up quickly to strangers, I would recommend booking a longer session with me to ensure you get the photos that you want. Mini sessions are booked back to back and I will not be able to extend the time of our session.
I absolutely love that you want to include your family. Family is so important and I love that you want to include extended family. Unfortunately, mini sessions are meant to be short and sweet. It becomes very difficulty to have enough time to incorporate all that comes along with an extended family session. You could reach out and maybe we can discuss the options of booking back to back minis or a regular session. I'd love to still work with your family!
Weather can certainly be unpredictable. As much as I would love to guarantee perfect weather the night of our session, it's just something that I can't control. With that said, I will wait till 2 hours prior to decide whether or not to cancel due to bad weather since the forecast can be so unpredictable. When you book a mini session with me, you must also commit to the rain date which will be the day after your scheduled session at the same time.
I require a retainer and signed contract to hold your spot. The retainer is non-refundable. I also will need a signed contract. If the signed contract and retainer are not received within 48 hours, your spot will be opened back up to other clients.
This part is easy. I simply need your name, email address and phone number to draft up a contract for your session. You will then sign the contract and then you will have to pay a retainer to hold your spot on my calendar. The final payment is due the date of your session.
