Styled & Mini Sessions
Styled Sessions
I’m all about keeping things traditional a lot of the time, but sometimes what is wanted is a bit of whimsy. Or perhaps your family has a little more personality to show off than white shirts and blue jeans on the beach. Or maybe you have a story to tell. I LOVE to tell stories! That’s where a themed or styled session comes into play. I will help you tell your story, the way only you can tell it. Give me a call and we can plan the details, from exploring what you love to do together as a couple or a family {maybe you there’s a favorite ice cream or candy store you love to go to on Balboa Island, or perhaps you love to fly kites with the kids – or maybe, you are really into hunting, like this family– who just happen to be the Hunters}
I love to incorporate fun elements from your theme – whether it be the toy boat from a nautical session, the pile of well loved books under the oak tree, the dripping
ice cream cone and sticky fingers or the flower laden bike.
I will help you find the perfect location and plan all of the little details, from wardrobe to props {and yes, even a bit of animal wrangling if necessary} so that the story you tell will be as unique as you are!
Mini Sessions
Mini sessions are held several times of the year, usually incorporating a theme of some sort that will be already styled for you {ex. Valentine’s sessions, spring/Easter themed sessions, summer beach themed sessions, fall harvest/Halloween themed sessions, Christmas themed sessions and the ever favorite holiday card mini sessions}. These mini sessions are only available on select dates and locations and they fill up fast!
The other type of mini session is perfect for those times when you really don’t need a full session but just a quick update – a child’s birthday portrait, or you need a new Facebook profile pic, or you’re dying to have a professional snapshot of little Lucy with her new puppy, and you just did your family portraits a month ago. Mini sessions are short, twenty minute sessions that include some digital files as well as products with the session fee. Inquire for a pricing packet!
