Short, Sweet, and Full of Heart
Short, sweet, and full of memories you’ll treasure forever.
Mini sessions are the perfect way to capture life’s little moments without committing to a full photo session. Whether it’s your annual family photos, updated portraits of the kids, maternity images before your little one arrives, or a seasonal shoot just for fun, these short sessions are designed to be quick, easy, and stress-free — while still giving you a beautiful gallery of images to love.
Each mini session is thoughtfully planned, with a set location, theme, and styling details already taken care of. All you have to do is arrive, relax, and enjoy the moment while I take care of the rest.

-
Quick and easy (perfect for little ones with short attention spans)

Cancellation policy.
I know life can be unpredictable, and I want to make sure your photo experience is as stress-free as possible. Mini sessions are non-refundable, so please double-check that the date and time you choose will work for you. If something urgent comes up, reach out to me right away—we can look at moving your booking to a future date (based on availability).
Because mini sessions are scheduled back-to-back and require preparation ahead of time, arriving late or missing your session will unfortunately mean your spot and fee are forfeited. To help things run smoothly, please plan to arrive at the location 5–10 minutes early.
Weather
If the weather isn’t on our side, I’ll make the call the night before and set a new date for your session. If you can’t make the new date, you’re welcome to apply your session fee toward another future session.
