Orange County Fall Mini Sessions 2024
I know it's a little hard to think about because it's still blazing out, but my son's back in school which means the Fall feels are starting to hit. PUMPKIN SPICE LATTES, ANYONE??? Just kidding. Real talk though, it's been so much fun scouting and getting sample images shot for my very first season of Fall minis! Mini sessions are quick photo sessions that are perfect for those who are looking to send out a beautiful holiday card or just to update their family photos (they can also be used as a quick and easy maternity shoot, couples shoot, gender reveal, pet shoot, whatever you like!)

Are mini sessions right for you?
If you...
- have a young baby (under 4 months old)
- have a child who takes longer to warm up
- prefer more variety in your gallery with lots of unplanned, candid shots
- tend to run behind schedule
A full session may be a better choice for you! Feel free to reach out via my inquiry form if you have any doubts or questions or would like to discuss my other offerings!
I am so grateful to have the opportunity to be your Orange County family photographer and am so excited for all the families I'll be meeting this season! If you have any questions don't hesitate to reach out.
Frequently Asked Questions
What if it rains?
My rainy day policy for mini-sessions is that if the forecast is showing a 50% chance of rain or more 24 hours before the session is scheduled to occur, the date will be canceled. Clients will be offered 2 alternate dates. If client does not find those suitable, the retainer fee can be applied toward another mini or full session within one year. The amount paid in excess of the retainer fee will be refunded.
How long does it take to receive the final edited photos?
You will receive your gallery of fully-edited photos within 3 weeks. I strive to deliver exceptional images that exceed your expectations.
Can we bring our dog?
Yes! All of my mini-session locations this year are dog-friendly! Four-legged family members do count toward the six person limit.
What if we want more than 5 photos?
Additional digital images with print release rights can be purchased for $20 a photo or $100 for the entire gallery.
What if we get sick or need to cancel?
If you would like to reschedule I will try my best to accomodate you. Otherwise, the retainer fee is non-refundable but can be applied toward another mini or full session within 12 months.
What if we are late to our session?
These sessions are scheduled back to back so punctuality is of utmost importance! I am usually unable to offer additional time to those who are late.
What if we don't want photos of our kids posted online?
As a parent myself, I understand why many parents choose to keep images of their kids off the internet. The model release portion of my contract is always optional.
