When deciding between a mini or full session, it’s important to consider your goals, schedule, and the kind of experience you want. Both options offer unique benefits—and knowing the difference can help you choose the one that fits best.
Mini Sessions: Quick, Fun, and Focused on the Essentials
My 15-minute mini sessions are perfect if you’re looking for a fast, no-pressure experience that still delivers beautiful results. Whether you want updated family photos, a few shots for holiday cards, or just a snapshot of a special season, minis are efficient, easy, and fun.
I offer mini sessions seasonally—typically in spring, fall, and around the holidays. You’ll receive 10 professionally edited images that capture your connection in a short, sweet window of time.
These are ideal for:
Busy families
Young kids with limited attention spans
Anyone wanting a budget-friendly refresh
While you won’t have time for outfit changes or multiple locations, we’ll focus on the best moments—and make it simple, fun, and stress-free.
Full Sessions: More Time, More Variety, and a Relaxed Experience
A full session gives us more time to slow down, explore creative ideas, and capture a wider variety of moments. These typically last about one hour and are perfect for families, maternity, or couples who want something more personalized.
With more time, we can:
Change outfits or move to multiple locations
Try different prompts and poses
Capture candid moments that unfold naturally
Full sessions allow us to create a gallery that tells a fuller story—one that reflects your personality, connection, and the little in-between moments that make it all feel real.
So, Which One’s Right for You?
If you’re short on time or just want a quick refresh, a mini session is the way to go. If you’re celebrating something special, want more variety, or just love the idea of taking your time—a full session is worth the investment.
