Limited Edition Spring Mini Sessions
SPRING HAS SPRUNG
ANNOUNCING SPRING 2016 MINI SESSIONS
I love spring!
There is no more beautiful time in Southern California than just after the cleansing rains of early spring. The grass is lush and green, the flowers are blooming, the air is clear and the beaches are still mostly empty. It is my favorite time to get outside and enjoy all that nature has to offer – especially photography! And there are so many great reasons to capture that love you share right now!
Spring Mini Sessions might be perfect for you if....
…you are looking for the perfect gift for the mom, grandma, wife or daughter for Mother’s day!
…you are a senior graduating this year…and you’d love a few great shots for the wall and your graduation announcements!
…your mom’s been begging you for some shots of the kids in their “Easter get up” or Sunday Best!
…your horse has finally shed out and you have always wanted to capture the bond that you share – as well as get a nice pic of yourself, and let’s face it – just your horse! (See my Equestrian portfolio HERE).
…love is in the air. Maybe you just got engaged – or you’re about to celebrate your 15th anniversary! Either way, you don’t need much of an excuse to capture the love you share together!

Are mini sessions only available on the dates and locations shown above?
Mini sessions at these prices are only available on the scheduled dates – however individual mini session packages are available at custom dates and locations as well as full sessions. Inquire for details.
How do I know what times are still available?
I’m working on getting an interactive calendar up, but for now just ask and I’ll let you know what dates and times are still available! Times are limited to take advantage of the best light!
If I purchase a basic package now and wish I had gotten a bigger one after I see the images can I upgrade?
Yes, you can always upgrade from one package to a bigger one!
Will there be props available or can I bring my own?
Yes and Yes! I will have a few popular props available such as flower crowns, balloons, and some boxes to sit on – but if you have something in mind and want to bring your own- such as a wagon, or your own favorite flowers, that’s totally fine too! When you book, let me know if you have a particular vision for you session! Just keep in mind that a 20 minute session goes by very quickly and so there won’t be lots of time for prop and outfit changes. That would be more suitable for a Signature Session.
When should I arrive for my session?
Because mini sessions go so fast, I would plan on arriving at least 15 minutes before your start time to make sure you can find me and also to familiarize yourself with the area, and settle in.
How many images will I have to choose from?
Mini sessions usually generate between 10-15 proofs to choose from – usually much closer to the 15!
What is the difference between a mini session and a Signature session?
Mini Sessions are much shorter and smaller versions of a Signature session. Less time means less images to choose from and less flexibility on choosing your own location or time. Packages are also less expensive than Signature sessions. Mini sessions are great for if you want to give my services a try to see my style fits yours or if you just need a quick updated photo – for a kid’s birthday invitation, personal head shot, etc.
What if I want a product not offered in the mini session package? Can I order additional products?
Yes, I have some special add-ons only available with limited edition mini sessions and my regular products are available as well. See section below for special limited edition add-ons!
I have two (or more) horses I want photographed. Can I include them in the mini session?
Yes, but because it’s hard enough to photograph one horse and rider in 20 minutes, I will need to do an extended mini session. The fee for adding on each additional horse is $50.
Can I make prints from the low res files in package one?
No. The low res files in package one are web resolution for sharing on social media only. Full resolution digital files may be purchased separately or are included in the larger packages!
Products available with packages or as add-ons!
