Mini Sessions

I offer a limited number of mini sessions each year, with two special rounds in the summer and fall. These sessions tend to book quickly, so you’re always welcome to send me a note to be added to my mini session list and be the first to hear about upcoming dates.

Mini sessions are designed to be short, simple, and beautiful. Each mini session is 20 minutes and takes place on a set day and at a predetermined location in a natural setting with trees, grass, and greenery as the backdrop. Mini sessions are scheduled back-to-back and include 25 professionally edited images.

During a typical family mini session, we’ll capture a mix of natural family moments and a few classic portraits, including:

• The whole family
• Mom + kids
• Dad + kids
• Siblings
• Couple/parent portraits, when time allows

If you’re looking for a short, beautiful collection of family portraits in a natural setting, a mini session is a great fit.

If you’re dreaming of mountain views, beautiful light, lots of variety, and a more relaxed experience, I recommend a full portrait session. Mini sessions aren't meant to be a smaller version of a full portrait session. They are their own experience—short, focused, and intentionally simple. For families with 3+ children, a full session may be a better fit, as it allows more time for individual combinations and natural moments without feeling rushed.

Both options are beautiful. The best choice simply depends on the experience you want and the kind of images you’re hoping to bring home.
