How Mini Sessions Work: I’ll Be There, You Join Me

Join me

I pre-select destinations and times so that we don’t do any coordinating! You’ll choose what time and location looks best for you below, and you’ll sign up to be in that slot’s queue.

the session

You show up for your session and we shoot! A note there will be other families there, but I am brilliant at coordinating day-of structure and capturing those fun, candid moments and memories.

receive photos

You’ll get 15 high-res photos of your choosing about 2 weeks after your shoot! You’ll have the option of printing, getting more selects, and we even have custom framing coming soon.
