New Mini-Sessions Announced!

Here’s the scoop: I will be shooting a first birthday at the Faust Park Carousel this Sunday morning, and thought it would be a great time to start the first round of mini sessions this year. These mini-sessions are perfect for kids of all ages..birthdays sessions, engagement sessions, Easter photos, last minute senior photos…Don’t miss out on this great offer, space is limited and will fill up fast!

All mini-sessions will last between 25-40 minutes depending on the size of the group. You will be presented with approximately 15-25 images in a personal online gallery to choose from. These mini-sessions will have a special fee of only $40.00 and includes two 5×7s and one 8×10 from the session (up to 4 people - $5 for each additional person). You must pay the full session fee as a deposit within 48 hours of booking your appointment to secure your date and time. Your images will be available in 7-10 days (usually sooner) with a sneak peek posted on the blog within 48 hours. The available session dates and times are below and are filling up fast:

March 2nd- 11:00am, 11:45am, 12:30pm, 1:15pm(booked), 2:00pm, 2:45pm and 3:30pm~~I will have live chicks and bunnies for this shoot)

If you are interested in one of these sessions, please go to the calendar, click on the date you are interested in (please click on the number) and it will bring up the session times available. Please make sure that you pick a ‘full session’ date for the maternity and newborn sessions and a ‘mini session’ date for the mini-sessions. This will send an e-mail to our appointment e-mail box and we should respond within 24 hours with an invoice for payment. If two people book the same date and time slot simultaneously, the first one in will secure the spot. If the time slot you are interested in is already filled, you may ask to be put on the waiting list. With the flu season in full swing, it is not uncommon to have a cancellation do to illness.
