Your people. Your light. Your Christmas card, finally handled.
I’m throwing open the studio doors for 15 holiday mini sessions on October 24th, 9am–2pm — quick, gorgeous, editorial-style shoots for families who want the magic without the marathon. (My full sessions run two hours. This is the express version — same warmth, same glow, way less time.)

HOLIDAY MINI SESSIONS🎄
Think soft, dreamy, and timeless — flocked white Christmas trees, warm golden string lights, and flowing sheer drapery in a cream and neutral palette. It’s the kind of backdrop that lets your family’s personality (and your outfits!) be the real star of the photo.

CAN I GET MORE PHOTOS?
Each session runs about 20 minutes total, broken down like this: a couple minutes to settle in and get positioned, about 15 minutes of actual shooting, and a few minutes to wrap and transition out. There’s a changing area on-site if you need to make a quick outfit swap before your session. Because we’re moving through a lot of families that day, please arrive 10 minutes before your session so we can start your session right on schedule — my assistant will be there to help guide you in and out smoothly.
WHAT SHOULD I EXPECT DURING MY SESSION?
Frequently Asked Questions
Go for it — just remember, we move fast. Keep it simple and easy to grab; nothing that’s going to eat into your 20 minutes.
Can I bring props?
Up to 5 people per session. Bigger crew? Reach out directly and we’ll see what we can do — just know the studio space has its limits.
HOW MANY PEOPLE CAN COME?
Yes—let’s talk! Full branding sessions typically run about 2 hours. If you want something longer than the mini but not quite a full shoot, contact me directly. I’ll be soaking up the conference too, but I’m open to extended shoots—especially after the event wraps.
Can I book a longer session?
Soft neutrals and warm tones are my favorite against this set — but don’t be afraid to bring in color. Just leave the neons (looking at you, hot pink) at home. A great trick: pick one warm color family and coordinate (not match) — mix in different textures and patterns within that palette. It keeps everyone cohesive while making the photos way more interesting. Wear what makes you feel like you. That’s always the real look.

SOUNDS LIKE A PERFECT MATCH?
LET’S WORK TOGETHER
