HEARING THAT MINI SESSIONS ARE NO GOOD AND YOU'LL JUST GET SOME CRUMMY PHOTOS
FEELING THE PRESSURE TO HAVE PERFECT PHOTOS FOR YOUR HOLIDAY CARDS
buried in a mile–long list of possible Mini Session photographers
If I had to guess, you're probably...
While full sessions are great, sometimes all you need is a few photos in a cute location, maybe with a few fun props, to send off to grandma and grandpa or share with friends.
If you want to dip your toes in to see if I'd be a good fit to become your forever family photographer, *or* if you just really love short sessions, my minis are a great option for everyone!
Thankfully for you, you just found your DREAM MINI photographer.
I run my minis very similarly to the way I run my regular sessions, just shorter *AND* the location, date, and time frame are chosen by me! It's the perfect way for you to get a taste of what it is that I do, test the waters to see if you want to book a full photoshoot with me, or just to have a quick and easy session to document your family's current season of life.
in addition to digital files, you will receive a print credit with each session that you can use in my gallery store! This makes it super easy to actually print out your photos instead of letting them ending up on a hard drive somewhere. It's that extra nudge we all need sometimes.
There's more to my mini sessions than meets the eye!
The PROCESS
$200 upgrade - all digitals - $100 Print Credit

Collection C
$100 upgrade - 5 digitals - $50 Print Credit
Once your photos have been delivered to you after the session you can upgrade to Collection B if you want more digitals and print credit. This includes 5 digital downloads and $50 in print credit.
Collection B
most popular

"Emily is very kind and wonderful at making you feel comfortable in front of the camera. I love how we weren’t posed and instead was able to capture moments of my family as if the camera wasn’t there!"
