Mini Sessions 2023


IMPORTANT INFO

  • Minis are quick sessions and are non-refundable.
  • Mini Sessions are lifestyle/candid sessions captured of real fun family moments. Traditional photos looking at the camera can't be guaranteed with these shorter sessions. If interested in a traditional session please contact us for a standard full family session.
  • It’s important to us that our clients understand and embrace our candid style of the photography prior to booking so goals and expectations align.
  • All Session locations will be emailed the week of your session.
  • Rain dates will be at the same time and place exactly one week later. Please plan accordingly when selecting your date and time.
  • You must pay for the session in order to reserve the slot, if you do not then the booking system will not reserve your choice of time and date. Limited space is available.


MY STYLE & APPROACH FOR MINI SESSIONS ARE CONSIDERED "LIFESTYLE"

I like to photograph you and/or your family in a genuine and playful manner. Lifestyle Mini Sessions are all about connections and those candid moments.

During sessions I use prompts to create real reactions. From whispers to tickles, I capture memories, not just the posed images.

I want to bring out the real emotions so I can create a frozen moment to cherish in the future.


** Traditional images with everyone looking at the camera can be obtained through one of our standard full family sessions.

These full sessions can be a mixture of lifestyle and traditional with their longer portrait time being a benefit and outfit changes.


NOTE: Themed Sessions do not include the 2022 new year sale. New Year Sale Minis: These are to be booked anytime in 2022 based on availability, within 20 miles of Shakopee, and are not included in themed sessions.
